While listening to James Melton singing this song I think of James Paul McCartney who wrote & sang similar of such songs in this crooning style for his father. I also think of Rudy Valle & the Roaring Twenties. The voice is flawless but too charististic of a love song in a Marx Bros. movie. Although I can't knock it musically, I'd just rather hear it sung by someone like Fritz Wunderlich or Jussi Bjoerling in German & Swedish respectively.Jose Carraras sings it beautifully w/Spanish accent.
I had Melton singing Madame Butterfly with Albanese on record ..very nice. he was good .Could croon and sing the more serious music with the same flair
@10000dresses AGREE ROGHARM he is great and the musical arrangement is great and in the minor operatic key. this song is performed like an aria. great phrasing. love it. i am using this to learn to sing. learn frm the B E S T!!!!!

beautiful rendition of the song I had only heard it with Lanza who had a great voice but over powered this song. This is wonderful.
