I'm so greatfull to come across these Mario Lanza christmas songs- because I to am reminded of very happy childhood memories of my Father and entire family listening to these carols in happier times.
My father and my brother, both sadly missed loved Mario, and his voice always brings back memories of my childhood. He will never be matched. May your God bless you and bring peace to our Earth.
It doesn't get better than Mario. As a boy in Brooklyn in the early 60s I played this to death, also all through my army hitch from 68 to 71. God blessed us with the best, he gave us Mario.
i dont think any tenor sang these christmas songs better than lanza. we are very lucky to have him even if it was for only 38 years. and i also think he was the best in american songs as well . enjoy

My Mother is a big Mario Lanza fan so we listened to him all the time, I love his voice. His Christmas music is fantastic I still listen to it every year. Thanks so much for posting this it brought back a lot of very good memories!
....by accident I had, in 1963, this by Lanza on a cut rate record, sold at Goodrich retail stores........it was a discounted sale by the company and RCA, I think....have been listening to this, plus all the recorded material by Lanza for 48 years....
A wonderful Christmas classic. I listened for years to a 45 rpm record with Lanza singing Adestes Fideles on one side and The First Noel on the other. Just fantastic.
My family are all gone now, sadly, but when i was little in the late 60s early 70s we always played Mario Lanza Christmas music and this one was my favorite. He was truly amazing, never been a voice like his since he died way too young. Thank you for posting this, it brought back so many happy memories and i still can sing the Latin with him!
@65anjelica HI! I, too, would listen to his Christmas album dating way back to 1960 when I was 5. There will never be another tenor as good as Mr. Lanza. Perfection personifide! The others are good, and you know who I mean these days, but Mario Lanza is GREAT!

Very well sung, but his Latin pronunciation leaves a bit to be desired. Even for ecclesiastical Latin it is a bit sloppy. Very well sung though.

My Dad always played a Christmas album that Mario Lanza made and it always brings back fond memories for me. I have the DVD of that same album.
Mario Lanza had such a beautiful voice!

probably the best version of this carol I have ever heard, he was taken from us too soon, and he will never be replaced
