Gesu Bambino medley - Pavarotti & Joan Osborne

[avirazzy]

Pavarotti was flawless. Wow

[trackmaster152002]

I think he has some problems with the high notes, he should stick with the lower octaves. Other than that, it was pretty good.

[1510Ronald]

This performance from this two singers is for eternity!!!! Wonderfull!

[xxluciousxx1423]

Im singing this for my high school choir and im doing the solo's and their high!!

[tlages]

his voice makes Italian women squirt

[TurboVW2004]

I remember this like it was yesterday...can still hear my (Italian ex-pat) father complaining about Miss Osborne....

[Smiinon]

The Choir is awful.

[bmcondon]

The choir is not watching the conductor. Quite clear.

[kt4always]

Wow..Pavarotti is amazing and makes it look so effortless!

[coonarick]

We should all be grateful we can so far. see two great performers together I like them both, thank you for posting Rick.

[queenbee2406]

Very sweet. I don't think Joan was oversung, as some have suggested. I think it was a well balanced performance for both. I miss Pavarotti.

[MartinMusic74]

3:41 LOL...

[JCeverlasting]

@MartinMusic74 lol you bad

[KENTUCKYUSA1]

I come back to this site and listen regularly because I love this song so much. There is such sweetness here.

[roserofe]

Amen, Marycaruso1, she should wear that out clubbing, not in concert with Pavarotti.

[BelCantoLover]

Thanks for posting this video. The way they used both Italian and English I used as the inspiration for singing it on Christmas eve.

[dee1153]

He is the most amazing tenor of our time. 61 years old here and has a voice most 30-year-olds would kill for. Incredible.

Thank you Maestro.

[50Emerald]

I'd like to find this babe under my Christmas tree...

[fatstrat06]

I have a feeling I'm going to get flamed for this but here goes. Putting Joan next to a classical powerhouse like Pavarotti was a bad choice. She sounds like a 15-year-old smoker. The pitch is very good i will concede, but I dislike her voice for this song. The contrast was not intriguing, it was instead obvious and embarrassing. :-/ Wonderfully done Pavarotti, however.

[swolfert]

No flaming required. The reaction of the artists and the crowd at the end says it all. I suspect the folks that were there will remember for a lifetime. Just glad it can be shared on youtube (at least until the copyright gods discover it).

[tigerlilly66]

@fatstrat06 is right on! I was thinking the same thing. The only thing that saves the performance is the beauty of the song itself.

Merry CHRISTmas !

[glastonbury12]

......and Joan looks beautiful

[glastonbury12]

wonderful - great mix of vocals

[sbellato]

igualzinho aqui na américa latina, je je je Deus tá vendo

[marycaruso1]

She should have worn something a little more appropriate for the occasion.

[1510Ronald]

Danke für dieses Video. 'Dieses Weihnachtslied und diese zwei wunderbaren Stimmen. Es wird wohl nie mehr besser gesungen werden. Danke.

Ronald

[thespiritualsound1]

Missing you, Pavarotti...

[G0dspelronin]

Good God Joan is so beautiful and her voice is so.......hmm. I bet Pavarotti felt honored to be singing with her...such a sexy beast

[tigerlilly66]

Osborne sounds like a bar singer with that "husky" voice, gotten from years inhaling smoke. She sings well, but Pavarotti needs someone more his equal, say someone like Beverly Sills.

[driverain2]

Its funny how we view and hear things. I love her because of the unique, lovely voice that she weaves so beautifully thru whatever it is she is singing. and i respect your opnion too.....

[PissedOff803]

WAY COOL!

And Christmas or not, I could listen to this all day...Love Joan & Pav. Never thought I would hear them together. Thanks 4 posting.

Love it.

[wzb3]

Wonderful video! Thanks for posting! The world lost a great singer in Pavarotti, but thanks to people like you, he lives on.

[steelcurtain96]

Joan is a good singer but....she does NOT mix well with the powerful boom that was Pavarotti...

[jojomusic69]

agreed. not the same type even.

[ricangerm]

The voice of the greatist TENOR and the saultry voice of Joan is a match made for any ear to enjoy

[tigerlilly66]

saultry? How about "sultry" or "psaltery" ??

[Jgerman]

aww i love joan too

[dw310]

how did you get this?? Amazing. I love Joan.
