You know I like this kind of video. You put together one hack singer & another with both charisma & an awesome voice, add one great song, & hey presto, another example of just how today's music is lacking truly great performers with real singing talent. Same thing happened with John Denver & Placido Domingo a few years back. Now Elvis & Sir Christopher, now that would be something! Two awesome talents together. Maybe RCA should think about it.
listen to the magic of the wizards dream by rhapsody featuring him, hes also in the intro of the dark secret by them doing a very cheesy intro... but yeah thats wayyy better music and his voice sounds much cooler in it
Sir Christopher is a great actor and singer, no doubt. If you haven't heard him sing in the Wicker Man, you should, he's awesome! (as is the entire film). I like the video for "She'll fall for me" better than this one, though. He sounds kind of flat to me, but what the hell do I know about opera! Go Lee!!!!
No wonder, his complete name is Christopher Frank Carandini Lee, last heir of the marquises of Sarzano. His grand mother was Marie Carandini, a famous Soprano.
it's a melody of "It's Now or never" made famous by Elvis but also covered by Jay & the Americans and the traditional Italian "O Sol Mio" (or something like that, I'd have to look it up)
this video was a bonus on one of Mr. Lee's Dracula DVD's. (not sure which)
Cristopher Lee,surely one of the greatest artist on heart!!Incredible actor and incredible singer(listen to The Magic of the Wizard's Dream of rhapsody of fire)!He's a living legend!!
Reminds me of that scene in Fellowship of the Ring where Saruman is shouting a curse from atop his tower... he used much the same voice as he does here.
Christopher Lee is a trained operatic bass-baritone. Although he rarely preformed on the opera stage. But he was respected enough to be invited to a huge gala in 1986 in Verona Italy.
Agreed. I mean, he can act, and has acted for DECADES. He can SING. He's performed numerous song styles. Simply put, Christoper Lee is simply AMAZING! :D
@Melphistox lestat is a pussyhole compared to the Dark prince himself! Lord dracula forever! there will only be 1 christopher lee just as there was only 1 peter cushing!
I have this video on DVD. It's on his movie "Scars of Dracula." There's another though..."She'll Fall For Me." Do you have access to that? BOTH ARE FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But that said ,bear in mind that CL knows and speaks AT LEAST a dozen languages fluently,and claims to ''get along'' in Russian ,Greek,and a few others.
Also consider that he IS of Italian descent on his mother's side,and is related to the infamous Borgia clan of the Renaissance.
His family ,the Carrandinis,are one of the oldest in Italy,and also have the right to bear the Arms of the Holy Roman Emperor.
Can this man get ANY more class without breaking a sweat?
This is the lyrics in italian (napoletano) Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole, n'aria serena doppo 'na tempesta! Pe'll'aria fresca pare già 'na festa... Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole. Ma n'atu sole cchiù bello, oje nè. 'o sole mio sta 'n'fronte a te! Quanno fa notte e 'o sole se ne scenne, me vene quase 'na malincunia; sotto 'a fenesta toia restarria quanno fa notte e 'o sole se ne scenne. [rep.]
Just a petty clarification: this is not italian; it is the dialect spoken by Neapolitans. By the way, I read that this venerable fiend actually speaks italian fluently...
