The sound of a male voice singing in that register is so haunting and beautiful. Probably one of the best renditions of this song I have heard.

With his funky hairdo, I was instantly prepared to dislike him. Then he opened his mouth. Oh, my God! This is absolutely everything that singing should be.  I am a fan for life.

@todesbote

I pressume that you must have heard the sopranist Aris Christofelis... I don't think that a castrato singer could do better that.

[theo9952]

@todesbote Well, they say that castrato tenors didn't use ''faltsetto'' vocal techniques that counter-tenors use. But how different their voices could they be ? They still had human vocal cords and there are also several singers with natural high-pitched voices and don't forget the sopranists ! BTW  have you heard recordings of the ''last castrato'' Morecshi ? They are very low-fi of course but still one can tell that he was not so good.

@theo9952 but its said, that there is a difference between the voices of castrate singers than in countertenors... ;-) sure countertenors are damn good but i think castrated singers sound different ;-)
