  • Most ppl in "the buisness" are critical of Katherine because of her looks and because of the way she dresses. As one lady said " she always has her tits on display". I don't see anything wrong with the way she looks or dresses. She is young and hip. Just because you are a classically trained singer doesn't mean you have to dress like an old woman. And all of her albums have gone to nunber one. And she has been knnighted by the Queen of England. So that must mean she's doing something right.

  • @goldenthroat86 I have no proof of your credentials while I do have proof of Dame Jenkins credentials. She doesn't claim to be an opera singer. She is a classical music singer. And I know you claim this is Italian pop but, when it was first written it was a country and western song by Dolly Pardon then interpeted by Whitney Houston in her own fashion and that album was certified platinum 17 times. So this is just Katherine's interpretation of this song in Italian.

  • @goldenthroat86 Dame Katherine Jenkins said it herself in an interview on the BBC. So, are you going to call her a liar or misquided in her career? I think she would know a little more about a mezzo's voice than you would. And the mezzo's you are talking about were their roles leads or just inconsequential roles?

  • @hughey4870 Denyce Graves is the most famous operatic Mezzo Soprano in the world. She is the most famous Carmen in the world. I am blessed to call friends at least 4 other Mezzos singing lead roles all over the world. They ALL were offered leading roles in world class houses before they were 30.

    What more evidence do you need? Are you in the business? Why is it that you won't believe someone who is actually in the business...as opposed to someone who isn't...namely Jenkins.

  • @goldenthroat86 What a big head you are ,you will be English no doubt .I`1d prefer Katherine to you anyday. Some of the English make me ashamed to be born there .

    Bet you could never get the attendences that she does .

  • I love the way Katherine a taken this song and interperted in a classical form.

  • Beauty is something elusive and unattainable, it is hyperbole to which man tends without ever touching it, if only because it was touched it would no longer beauty, is a painting by Caravaggio and Monet, is like the Pietà by Michelangelo is like the voice of Pavarotti or Katherine Jenkins.

  • La bellezza è qualcosa di inafferabile e di irraggiungibile, è un'iperbole verso il quale l'uomo tende senza mai toccarla, perché se solo venisse sfiorata non sarebbe più bellezza, è un quadro di Caravaggio o di Monet, è come la pietà di Michelangelo, è come la voce di Pavarotti o di Katherine Jenkins.

  • i love italian musik anyways :)

  • Awesome, She has such a wide range, never thought a contralto could reach those highs. well a good trained one can :D

  • You are miss quoting me. And you are bringing one of the best tenors in the world to the table to compare his career with hers. I said a meezo saprano's voice isn't matured until they are 30. Therfore they aren't offered operas. And to be considered an opera singer you have to actually have to perform in an opera and be able to carry it. Kathereine Jenkins has done neither. How many years of classical singing lessons have you taken?

  • @hughey4870 I studied with Tenor Richard Miller...Considered to be the greatest voice teacher of the 20th century. I made my operatic debut at age 24 and went to school with Denyce Graves...today's most famous operatic mezzo. She made her operatic debut at age 24 and had sung in almost all the world's major houses before age 30. I know quite a few mezzo's offered PLENTY of roles before 30. Where did you get that NONSENSE?!? There's no set "minimum age."

  • Dame Katherine Jenkins is a classically trained singer. She cannot yet be considered an opera singer until she has turned 30 because then her voice will be truely matured and she has to do an opera before she can call herself an opera singer.

  • @hughey4870 What? Pavarotti made his operatic debut at 26. You don't have to be 30 to call yourself an opera singer...You have to sing opera. This is Italian POP music. The only opera Jenkins sings is the habanera from Carmen. Don't you people know that?!?

  • @goldenthroat86 Yes well, it is true that Miss Katherine Jenkins has limited herself of true opera, but you must admit that her voice is still enjoyable.

  • Se io restassi qui non sarei come tu mi vuoi

    Me n'andrò ma già lo so sempre tu sarai in me

    Ormai l'amore sei, per sempre sei tu

    Sento già nostalgia delle notti e i giorni con te.

    La vita mia porto via, sai che è meglio così

    Ormai l'amore sei, per sempre sei tu.

    Spero che tu troverai quello che hai sognato per te,

    La felicità tua sarà la mia e lontano da me ancora amerai

    Ormai l'amore sei, per sempre sei tu

  • Whitney Houston was also a mezzo saprano before her smoking of marajuana lased with cocaine. believe her voice is now that of an alto.

  • dedicated this song to the one I really loved, wishing him to find all the love that he is seeking for. I will always remember him... it is the most beautiful song I ever heard! Jenkins voice is beautiful but I believe Whitney's voice is softer to my hearing

  • Booted from faves due to ads.

  • :-)

  • einfach super diese schöne stimme

  • Our world is full of beutiful things, frome Houston to Jenkins; love in all things that we do for each other. Abundance of gifts and beautiful jestures are endless....God bless all of Us, we who are here.

  • okay, fer real...

    She's okay

    She sings in Italian

    She's blonde

    She can hit the high notes

    But she is a pygmy next to Whitney

    Hell... she's a pygmy next to Connie Talbot, fer chrissakes!

  • Heard of Katherine of course,everyone has .Who the hell is Connie talbot ?

    Katherine of course is a mezzo soprano ,not sure about Whitney Houston.

    A shouter perhaps.

  • Dolly... see what you did?

  • I liked this song when I heard it sung by its composer, Dolly Parton, about 35 years ago. I liked Whitney's version & thought it was the best until I heard it by Katherine Jenkins.

    My wife & I first heard her version on a new CD while driving through the country & we were so moved that we had to pull over to listen to it again. Katherine's version is, by far, the most beautiful. Her vocal range is amazing & her voice is so pure, rich & powerful.

    Thank you for sharing this video.

  • amazing i carnt find a word ot describe that perfectin!!!!!

  • Simply Perfection!

  • If Id stay here, I shouldnt be like you want me.

    I will go, But I already know, Youll be always in me.

    By now, Youre the love, Youre the love

    Forever you.

    Ill always feel nostalgia, For nights & days with you,

    I take away my life, You know its better this way.

  • By now, Youre the love, And always you are.

    And I hope youll find, What you dreamt for yourself,

    Your happiness, Will be mine,

    And far from me, youll love again.

    But by now, Youre the love

    And always you are.

    By now, Youre the love, Youre the love

    And always you, You are, you

    Youre the love.

  • what is Italian lyrics about? is it very close to I will always love you lyrics, or the meaning is changed?

  • Tuscany, Umbria, you can feel a medieval breeze there... and breathe it. Nice setting!

  • is changed

  • WHile this may be great, Whitney Houston popularized this song, and, even though Dolly had the original wording, the last verse was Whitneys own, and she made the song what it is today.

  • i LOVE THIS !!, but the original dolly parton version remains and always will be the best :) Thanks so much for posting this , lovely !!

    Crazy4Dolly

  • Yes, it's italian.

  • what kinda language = this? Italian>?

  • most opera / Classical music is sang in italian.

  • amazing voice.luv u katherine!

  • I agree the fact this version is amazing but the Dolly Parton's stays the best!!!

    But I have to say that the more I listen to this version, the more I love.

  • She definitely makes Whitney Houston seem like a cracked out ho by comparison.

  • I just heard this version for the first time a couple of days ago and I've been listening to this song non-stop since. I've become addicted! I thought nobody could top Whitney's version, but this one puts it to shame. Beautiful song, amazing voice!

  • Beautiful voice, Beautiful woman

  • ahhhhh I'm in love with this song and with this great artist.

  • ay allam ne datlı bi ses yaw...

  • Ma chi è che dice che le belle ragazze hanno la testa vuota?Miss Jenkins,tu sei l'eccezione che conferma la regola,qualcuna ha la testa vuota,ma tu no!!!

  • Comment removed

  • this is infinitely better than the crackhead version

  • I often think to my self when i listen to opera music that if i could sing like that, i would talk like that all the time it would be hillarious, answering the phone HELLOOOO!

  • By far the best comment I've seen on a YouTube video!

  • love this comment!! and love the song too ofc :P

  • @BHGROCK A song being in Italian doesn't make it opera. This isn't even classical. It's Italian POP music!

  • @BHGROCK that wulb be pretty much amazing

  • I love you Miss Jenkins

  • Dolly Parton wrote this beautiful song.. I love this rendition..I think it is exquisite.

    Katherine Jenkins has the face of an angel...as well.

  • so the fact that she's french, that french is quite similar to italian (similar enough to make us able to comunicate quite easily), that she knows the song already in 2 languages....would not have helped her, you think?

  • welsh

  • and.......?

  • Kathereine is Welsh

  • @12harby shanasweet isn't....my reply was to qmt49

  • @dehro FRENCH,what about Welsh.Can`t believe anybody did not know that .

  • L'Amore sei tu = Love is you

  • Thank you 2mila9.

  • I understood this song to be sung in Italian and went to a online Italian/English dictionary and came up with the following translation - " I love you six" - maybe six is a big number in Italy. Can someone who speaks Italian help?

  • sei is the italian number six, but it's also a form of the verb "to be", meaning you are.

    so, love is you, indeed..

  • Thank you dehro.

  • what a voice...

  • Mo Anam Cara My Darling Lisa

  • I Adore You My Precious Boo Lad

  • i know this song in frenach and english

    I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU

    i am french so i understood everything (:

  • semplicemente meravigliosa

  • beautiful woman, beautiful voice, beautiful song

  • io amo questa canzone!!!! per di più è in italiano ed è ancora meglio!!!!!!!!!

  • I am sorry but this song, no matter how beautiful, still does my head in. The song is originally in English she is Welsh. Why in the name of all that is sane and normal is she singing it in Italian?

  • She is a classical singer, most classical music is sung in italian, would have been nic to hear it in english but its still great

  • Her voice is amazing and perhaps she wanted to be different I mean look at how many times this song has been re-released by other people in English, I think she gave it a brilliant original touch, something different to what we usually hear!

  • The Alpha Female sends out her challenge and invitation from the mountaintop.

    Who could resist?

  • As a Katherine Jenkins fan, I am trying to be objective here, but this has to be one of the most gorgeous videos on YouTube, visually and performance-wise. This video is from her "Live at Llangollen" DVD as one of several bonus videos on the disc. I do enjoy her concert DVDs, as she has a very sweet personality in front of an audience. Very lovely woman with a wonderful voice and although not technically a classical opera singer, her mezzo-soprano is very rich and pleasant. Nice upload.

  • SHE IS PERFECT!!!!

  • Katherine-Your artistry is beyond compare. You are helping me through a very sad time in my life. My wife of almost 30 years passed away and you remind me so much of her. She was so beautiful like you and had your dimples, and was such a special person. My diary to her includes your video. Thank you Barry

  • The best VOICE I've ever heard BY FAR.

    Her looks are incredible too.

    Have all her records and NEVER get tired of listening to this 1 in 1,000,000

  • how did she get that beautiful tits, voice and face all together

  • This is the most beautifull song I've heard for months!

  • Wonderful

  • The best version of this song i've ever heard

  • the classiest thing i've witnesssed this year so far...loved it! beautiful voice.

  • What can you say about this talented and beautiful young woman. I could listen to her all day.

  • dont like this type of music but i love her voice she is just simply gorgeus

  • bella e brava

  • Ihr Gesang rührt die Seele und bricht die Dämme im Innern

  • This woman has an amzing talent! She is a beautiful person with a beautiful voice. Her singing always touches me!

  • I dont understand a word shes saying, but her voice just brings a tear to my eye. Amazing voice, Beautiful, and an amazing personality. AMAZING.

  • Then you have understood every nuance of every single word!! I agree - beautiful and talented.

  • Not unless I get there first, planglas! :P xx

  • Everyone on YT should stop feeding trolls like LaDonnaMobile. Posting comments for trolls is a complete waste of time and YT space and resources.

  • Such an amazing version of this song! What a great voice Katherine has!

  • excellent, and if she were really lucky she could become my next girlfriend lol

  • Dream on

  • "Fantastic",i saw katherine live at quex house in kent recently,theres not many that bring tears to my eyes but she did,what a wonderful voice...........

  • Welsh Gold

  • bellisima interpretacion, grandiosa

  • WOW! That was unbelievable. I am happy that I heard the other versions first. I like all of them, but Kate's version is dynamic and beautiful beyond words! Etherial!

  • Onlydreaming knows his/her stuff - this is outstanding

  • She has the voice. It is that simple. I respect those that have come before her in this recording, but she blows them all way. She has the voice of an angel.

  • wot a voice she has its superb and very pure. I think she is well pretty.

  • Ever heard the phrase "a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing"?

  • huh? l'amore sei tu means Love is you.. not "I will always love u" or am I just being daft ?

  • Nice touch..

    Her own.

  • Well sung..I couldn't even tell that it was the Dolly Parton classic thats how well she made it sound her own.

  • Dolly"s original version, sweet...

    Whitney" version, powerful...

    Katherine"s, version, a true new experience, i think i"m in love again..

  • Wonderful arrangement....Dolly Parton wrote this song-Whitney Houston made it a pop hit..BUT THIS version is PERFECTION.

  • Beautiful Voice and Beautiful Woman. Go Wales

  • This is lovely. I sing many types of music from Opera to R&B and was worried that that would be too confusing for people but because of Singers like Katherine I am not worried anymore.

  • Great!!!!!!!!Lindo!!!

  • I love this song...we used it for our ballet show dance and and audition. By the end of it all everyone knew the words (although no-one knew what they the meant!!)

  • This song was played at my 16 day old son's funeral Alistair Robert Dale Cook on 29th Janurary 2008 R.I.P Darling

  • A beautiful choice. May your son Rest in peace.

    God bless.

  • Thank You Very Much x

  • So sorry to hear of your loss!This is a beautiful song, sung by a beautiful singer, and the sentiments are so heartfelt. I also am an Alastair Robert - God bless him and you!

  • I'm very sorry to hear about your son, you chose a very lovely song for him, may he rest in peace. xx

  • A beautiful choice. May your son Rest in peace.

    God bless.

  • she is a great singer with a capital G. lovely music

  • Really love this song and music video. Bravo!

  • Good for her - wish I had good PR and a record deal after music college. As long as she's happy singing crossover, that's all that matters. In my opinion as an experienced classical singing teacher and pro. opera singer, she's a lyric soprano, I just don't understand why she's singing like an old fashioned woofey over-covered mezzo. Who was her teacher at the Royal Academy?

  • Prolyrictenor, you are dead on! She is clearly a lyric soprano, which explains why she sang "O Mio Babbino Caro" & "Ebben? Ne andro lontana" (transposed) on her album Serenade. On the other hand, she recorded Delilah's aria (Mon coeur). She also sang "Nessun Dorma" on her album entitled "Living a Dream" (I'll say!) So perhaps she's really a female lyric tenor with an exceptional upper register! ROFL Can't wait for her upcoming "Tribute to Jussi Bjoerling" album; I expect it go platinum. ;)

  • If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby...

  • Her vibrato iz stunning and she looks looks lovely in this video.

  • beautiful voice, beautiful woman...

  • This is my No 1 music video. A superb singer with a beautiful voice (and a wonderful person, too). Also love the dress and the setting for the video. Katherine has actually said she would like to appear in an opera but her voice will not be mature enough until she is around 30. And she still has voice lessons, according to her website.

  • Katherine you are great. Definitely one of my favourites of all time. I also discovered this great new musician Milica Ilic and I see that a few more have fallen for her charms on this page. I haerc her do Cavatina from the DeerHunter and Evie's Song? on the BBC - my God, she took my breath away.

  • Beautiful voice, and it looks like she had fun making the film.

  • Naah, she's beautiful. I would say up there with the current classical hottest artist, Natasha Marsh, Ana Netrebko, and the new girl, Milica Ilich, I saw her on the BBC the other day, she is so amazing.

  • I know your trying to be funny

    But fine have your opinion

    But at least keep the same opinion

    One of your comments says she sounds bad all the time and another says shes good on this

    :S

  • Not interested in the prattle - beautiful woman, magnificent voice, stunning scenery : filmed in the Spanish/Portuguese border town of Alcanatara, Extremadura.

  • My last comment was to redcordial7

  • You really need to make your mind up :S

    Shes extremely good

    And people may not agree but just do us a favour and keep it to yourself

  • she IS good. technically she's very good. just because she isn't a high soprano doesn't mean she isn't worthy of a record contract etc.

    i personally think she's a beautiful person with a beautiful voice. everyone's allowed their opinion, but just because you don't LIKE her voice doesn't mean it's bad.

  • i just saw this busty blonde in emmerdale

    paula australia

  • She is very attractive and the petticoats are a nice touch but her her voice is just average

  • Berk

  • if thats average then the rest of the world is crap in comparrison, one of the greatest voices to hear this decade

  • To all those who carp: She comes over with a nice personality. She has a lovely voice and uses it well. Of course some music may suit her better than others. The same goes for any artiste & artist.Ifyou carpers can do what you do as well as she does, fine, but I doubt it. Criticism is so easy. Enjoy what she gives and if you don;t like it, - putup or shut up.

  • come on she has a beautiful voice and although i like the creative metaphores redcordial7 i think thats a bit harsh she sounds good and i love her voice its great

  • Un meraviglioso video: panorama tipicamente italiano , testo e musica splendidi , interpretazione calda , raffinata e morbida sonorita' con italiano perfetto , scenografia e fotografia che esalta l'atmosfera mediterranea ..... Affascinante, e molto brava Caterina !

  • it isnt a fake mezzo soparno voice she is a mezzo soprano

  • You really do talk complete twaddle at times.

  • Well, Numbers, I've heard her live too..and disagree strongly with your rather insidious, childish, and condescending comments.

  • Just beautiful. If Barbi was made of flesh and blood. She would want to be Katherine Jenkins

  • I think it is the first time for this song to be sung in italian. I have listened to Katherine live and I hate to tell you all but she has used a lot of sound system in the studio for this song. Also she always comes down a Key when singing this song live

    NAUGHTY NAUGHTY

  • wot language is this in

  • italian of course!!!

  • planet red???????????????????????????­???

  • she is relly gd i love her album

  • this is whitney houstens song!!!!

  • This song is amazing. Anyone who says Katherine Jenkins can't sing obviously hasn't heard any decent music in the past. I'm no fan of opera but I could easily listen to this woman forever more. She is wonderful.

  • It's so hard just to listen when she is so stunning. Her voice in this song is magical. I just have to see and hear this young women live!

  • Simply beautiful, the song and the woman!! What a voice!!

  • è dedicato a te donatella!!

  • A beautiful voice and a beautiful women..

  • I saw her in concert when she was supporting Hayley Westenra and she was totally amazing. This song is so beautiful.

  • That's why it's better to listen rather than watch. She is so beautiful, but the emotion is in the singing not visual

  • she has an amazing voice. shame she has no emotion in her performance

  • STUNNING!!!! Her & Her Version Of The Song!!!

  • Sencillamente precioso
