John McCormack - So Deep The Night

[1davidost]

It brings me to tears, John has such a beautiful voice. Like you say we will never hear his like again. Regards to all Dave Thompson.

John McCormack, Sadly, we will never hear his likes again. What a beautiful voice

he had. Thanks to willsandroses for posting the words of So Deep Is The Night. It Is

very hard to find words and music of his songs now.

[willsandroses]

Be still my heart, Silent lest my love should be returning From a world far apart. So deep is the night O lonely night, On broken wings My heart has taken flight And left a dream. In my dream our lips are blending, Will my dream be never ending? Will your memory haunt me till I die? Alone am I, Deep into the night, Waiting for the light, Alone am I, I wonder why? Deep is the night."

[Corrie121]

This is so beautiful.

I have added this to my John McCormack "Playlist", and I thank you sincerely for sharing this gem.

So deep is the night No Moon tonight No friendly star To guide me with it's light Be still my heart Silent lest my love should be returning From the world, far apart So deep is the night O, lonely night On broken wings My heart has taken flight And left a dream In my dream our lips are blending Will my dream be never ending Will your memory haunt me 'til I die Alone am I, deep into the night Waiting for the light Alone am I, I wonder why I wonder why.

@MrJulesNapier Thanks. I had a good vinyl copy and just ran the sound through some effects that came with some video editing software. Glad you like it.

john at his brilliant best

I have read that McCormck and Caruso referred to each other as "the world's greatest tenor". McCormack has such heart and soul in that technically perfect voice. I have listened to him all my life. Jo Stafford sang a song during the 40s "No Other Love" from this same Chopin Etude in E Major Op.10, No. 3. Finbar Wright does "So Deep the Night" beautifully also yet there is only one John McCormack. I cannot imagine the world without him.

Had this played in the chapel of rest at my dad's funeral, it was one of his favourite songs. It's a lovely song but will always be tinged with sadness for me.

[twi1504]

One of thr geat singers of all time

[Ivanhoe2]

The singer would be around 56years when recording this?  A pleasant presentation. Thanks.

[lorgain2]

The mastero at work, what a voice.

[maestro2be]

McCormack is my favorite singer of ALL TIME. He is simply amazing and words cannot describe the things his singing have done to my life and my heart. This piece is just another testament to his pure amazingness. Chopin would have been proud to have listened to this. His tonal quality and unique (but EXTREMELY technical) singing style is just without words. RIP John, you remain my singing hero for all time...

[paxguns]

Totally agree. I have a record of him singing

"I'll walk beside you" and it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.

[spudseamus]
