I was born about the same time as he was. And during all these years I have never heard a better version of this song. Never. His singing is so sincere, so emotional, so natural and divine that no one ever will be able to top that. He was simply a miracle.

из звёздных детей могу сказать только о Робертино и юной Юле Началовой - невероятное владение голосом, очень стройно, вопреки детскому обычному исполнению, когда дети просто не понимают об управлении интонацией. Браво ещё раз!!!
