Every time I see this performance, every time, I am astounded by how much Alfie packs into such a simple song. How much power and sweetness his voice has, how much passion and gentleness he's able to convey. Whether it's yt clips, the dvd or an audience member's video, he turned Bring Him Home back into the prayer it was meant to be -- and we watched. He brings you into the show, and lets you pray with him. wow
Alfie Boe is AFAIC the VERY BEST operatic tenor this country has EVER produced. He can hold his own with Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras and he also has a certain familiarity with some of the REALLY great tenors such as Bjorling.
He is amazing. I would crawl over broken glass to get to a concert of his, I really would!
