@RicaXIE Can you please tell me which one is the original?

[gilbert2347]

J'avais quatre ans lorsque j'avais un oncle (Marceau Leroy) décédé à 23 ans malheureusement, m'avais appris toutes les chansons de Tino Rossi que je connaissais par coeur Aussi lorsque j'entend Tino,je ressens de la nostalgie de l'époque

La CORSE est et sara BONAPARTISTE

[janek1940]

vincent n'est pas quebecquois ,c'est un dessendant des nationalistes italiens .L,italiens contenporiens date de1869 tandis que le corse est parle depuis 2000lat.Simplement mussolini et sa bande de nationalistes disaient que la Corse est italienne,auqu'un dictionnaire dans le monde ne dit que la Corse est italienne mais francaise.

[aramt06]

thank you

[janek1940]

Vincenz55 ne dit jamais a un CORSE qu'il est italien,Pardon tu m'apprends une nouvelle histoire de la Corse et de l'angleterre.D'apres moi tu connais pał'histoire des peuples.

[vincenz55]

Tu es corse? je le voulez ecouter da un corse. le vouloir ou ils ne sont pas des sangs italiens..quest ce que cest? calvi? bonifacio? Aleria? Bastia, Niolo, Scala di santa regina, Bavella, lincudine, Cinto, paglia orba, Piana, Filitosa, Figari..etc Semblent-ils le français à vous ?

[janek1940]

vincenz55 au lieu de discuter sur la Corse ,son histoire,sa langue tu ferais mieu d'aprecie cette chanson que chante Tino.Tu ne connait pas la Corse,nison histoire.

[vincenz55]

je connait meilleur de toi..la corse tien toute sangue es culture italienne non francais.

[130759]

Ecoute ami canadien, tu dois être un Anglophone car il n'y a que les canadiens Francophones pour maîtriser à la fois la langue de Shakspeear et de Molière.

Quand à ta sois-disante culture des peuples

elle me laisse perplexe. Mais écoute plutôt Tino et lâche nous la grappe.

[vincenz55]

oui mais pourqoui les francaise no aime les quebecois e vice versa?

[130759]

Faux, on aime les québécois et je pense qu'ils nous préfèrent aux anglais.

[Graham1954]

You are right there. Quebcois who are of French descent don't like other Canadians. There is a perception in Canada that the English descended people have rather had it their own way for so many years, & the Quebecois have suffered through that.

[ifuliki]

Pas vrai. Not true.There's always a few malcontents. When I go to Quebec I receive nothing but kindness, J'aime la Belle Province comme l'Ontario. On n'a pas faire du progres en pensant toujpurs du passe.

[giloubreizh]

les Québécois sont mes frères!

[vincenz55]

certainment que l'aprece

[altecnasing]

Tino, tu nous fends le coeur comme disait Fernandel.

Merci Tino

[130759]

Ce n'est pas Fernandel qui disait "tu nous fends le coeur" mais Raimu.

Mais c'est vrai qu'on aime Tino.

[vincenz55]

He wasnt really French..Does Rossi sound french to you? he was actually corsican an island which france stole from italy

[sebreathnach]

Are you sure he is Corsican?

[vincenz55]

he sings and has made albums in corsican which i have

[130759]

Corse is French. Irleland is Gretbritannia.

[sebreathnach]

Touche!

[vincenz55]

Corse was italian before it was french..look at all the italian names of the towns..the last names of people..the corsican language is italian..their blood is italian..so that makes them italian under the french flag..the french stole corsica from italy..savoy(savoia) was also italian..nice(nizza) mentone all italian towns

[130759]

D'accord avec toi l'ami canadien mais si les peuples de savoie et de nice sont Français c'est aussi sur leur demande.

Quand à la Corse, elle n'a jamais été Italienne mais appartenait à Gènes.

L'Italie n'existait pas à l'époque en tant que nation.

[vincenz55]

oui daccord mais le sangre de le genes les pisan etc es italienne mais tous les european avait sangre mixed..comme les francaise les italiane dutch alleman espanol etc

[130759]

Ecoute canadien. En europe, on dit que l'Allemagne est une race, l'Angleterre un royaume et la France une personne. Médite cela.

[vincenz55]

ecoute francais je ne parle de la race anglais..mais la race anglais tien des genes romain

[sebreathnach]

But why does 130 say 'corsican no love italian'?

[vincenz55]

dont know he is making it up

[janek1940]

Yes he is born Ajaccio in the capital of Corse

[130759]

Corsican no love Italian.

[janek1940]

Le royaume de Gene(l/italie n'existait pas) a vendu la Corse au francais pour ses dettes.

[sebreathnach]

My question is: Did Tino Rossi love Italy or France or both? Where did his preference lie? One other question: Who did his band arrangements, orchestrations? Anybody know?

[vincenz55]

BOTH from what i hear in the music he made..most of his old songs were written by vincent scotto another corsican/italian frenchman

[sebreathnach]

Thanks for answering as best you can. Obviously, I need to read some more on Mr Rossi. He is very interesting. Did I hear someone say he might be Canadian?

[Graham1954]

He was born in 1907 in Ajaccio, Corsica (France) & was christened Constantino Rossi. He toured America & Canada, giving concerts, from 1938 to 1946.

[sebreathnach]

Thank you. Did he, do you know, regard himself as French or Italian? Also, while I'm at it, any idea about the band, the arrangements, etc..?

[Graham1954]

As he was born on Corica, I'd expect he thought of himself as Corsican first, & French second. He was named a Commander of the Legion of Honour Blackman (did I read that right?) by President Mitterand in 1982.

[sebreathnach]

Well done - and thanks!

[HenRisHently]

This is the best from France

lovelysound...

His voice is one of the greatest,just like Tito Schipa ore Enrico caruso....mmmmmm...

[barbcard]

Lovely version of this highly romantic song. It sounds so much better in French than English. I guess the French have a "way" with such matters, like they do with wine and cheese.
