Richard Crooks? He s good. But compared to Jussi? Are u putting us on? The taste is like the backside. Divided. Some may like metallic voices and some love the open air.
hay un problema...si quieren comparar una cancion cualquiera interpretada por jussi bjorling vayan sabiendo que es imposible comparar y mucho menos competir con quien tuvo la mas bella voz melodiosa masculina que emocionaba en cada gala.
The second rendition is presumably by Richard Crooks, probably the finest Americian tenor of the post war period. Although Bjorling's version is wonderful, I think that Crooks' version is interesting and very fine for different reasons. I think it is very much better than John McCormack's.
@99Gambo Not a popular thing to say but would agree....this guy though has a sterling voice and the American is singing out of his own tradition. Long live utube!
Very nice! Thanks for uploading this. There's a Carnegie Hall concert recording of Bjorling singing this with piano accomp. only -- slightly nicer, as this orchestral version is a bit cheesy, no? The Crooks is also delightful.

@Lisnageeragh Crooks gets the emphasis and timing better.
