    This duet turned me on to opera almost 40 years ago. If you have friends who are not opera fans, please let them listen to this and see how it should be performed. If they fail to be moved they have no soul. Just kidding. Opera is not for everybody, but this beautiful music and such strong voices should turn anyone on to opera. If you can afford it (Phew) seeing this performed live is just earth moving.

    I love this duet! Alagna and Bryn Terfel have incredible voices, beautiful mix! Belle mise en scène, good prononciation of french. I've a preferance for Nicolai Gedda and Ernest Blanc's version (listen to it ;))

    The definitive version (in my opinion of course) is by Robert Merrill and Jussi Bjorling. A beautiful duet, whoever sings it!

    Just love it! But why "visually funny"? I guess, I missed the joke...besides, the best things come in small packages after all, right ;)

    Hey um i'm 17, i listen to all kinds of music (hiphop, rap, dub, flamenco) but just recently discovered such music. i love this song, and other things (time to say goodbye), canon & gigue in d major, tchaikovsky's dance of the sugar plum fairy

    was just wondering if people could direct me to more music like this? maybe some of the more famous ones i might have heard, and then i'll branch off from there :)

    I can't comment on others' preferences - I only know that for French diction, pronunciation, energy, intensity, and being in the moment - this is IT!!! The most thrilling of all the many versions available - and the first time I heard Roberto Alagna - but definitely not the last!!!

    I agree - Björling and Merrill still unbeatable in this duet :)
