It's very cute performance but I don't like Pons very much here. For that reason and because of the acting of Pavarotti I like more the 1980 with Blegen performance.
In spite of his mobility (I'm not sure about the word) here Pavarotti still is the best Nemorino ever. Bravo!
Forgive me if I answer, but Joan Pons was a fantastic: Belcore! You compare this with the production, sang Judith Blegen the Adina. The singer of Belcore, Brent Ellis, was an kasper, and vocally he could not convince me.
In one, I agree with them. Yes, Luciano Pavarotti he was the best Nemorino!
I compare Pons not with Brent Ellis but with Leo Nucci - he sang Belcore in the audio production with the same cast and Nucci is ways better than Pons.
Unfortunately, I have never seen Nucci in this role, I can imagine that it was an excellent presentation. However, I think Joan Pons in this was exceptionally well. Are there any clips with Nucci as Belcore on - You Tube?
No, this is was cast for audio record and as I said in the video one Nucci was replaced. Here (in Yuotube) there is a video from 1998 MET Gala night with expects from L'elisir, again with Pavarotti but there Nucci is Dulcamara.
Who could sing it better than Luciano, oh, you want to comfort him, one might say, Adina: Do not you see it? Nemorino loves you, oh it's beautiful, thank thee dearest Dee , thanks so much :)))
I also think that this role fit him very much because he himself was as a mischevous child and nemorino also and of course very romantic and in the end when Luciano call to the doctor and the children running around him I can see he is a liitle smile, very sweet.
I adore Pavarotti here. Thank you!

Adina, credimi, te ne scongiuro...
Non puoi sposarlo... te ne assicuro...
Aspetta ancora... un giorno appena...
un breve giorno... io so perché.
Domani, o cara, ne avresti pena;
te ne dorresti al par di me.
