Nessun dorma! nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, principessa,
Nella tua fredda stanza,
Guardi le stelle
Che fremono d'amore
E di speranza.

The secret's locked inside my heart
Nobody here will know my name
No, no! I'll cry till the morning
Quando la luce splendera!

My kiss will lean this tall and long silenzio
Che ti fa mia!

(il nome suo nessun sapra!...
E noi dovrem, ahime, morir! morir!)

Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
Vincero, vincero!

  • you are a poser, osea son todos poseros por ver ahora videos de pavarotti , ahora q murio, y bueno ahora el efecto tipico, vanacomprar discos de el , y todo eso , es el tipico fenomeno colectivo cuando muere una personalidad y la valoracion de lo q ya no esta , por q sucedera?

  • Este video lo coloque, mucho tiempo antes de la muerte de Pavarotti como ilustracion de la union de dos mundos musicales muy diferentes pero que pudieron unirse y cantar juntos.

  • Call me old fashioned, but this shouldn't be sung in English. Ever. Especially with Ian Gillan singing.

    On the other hand, it's nice to see to singers of different genres combine their voices. And it does in a sense, make opera easier for people who complain they can't understand it/won't read subtitles. Even so, "no, no!"

  • Remember the scene from Milos Forman's "Amadeus"? The Italians didn't want Mozart to write an opera in German, too. I do agree rather with your "other hand" ;)))

  • Yes, but Mozart was Austrian. Thus, German was his native tongue. Puccini was Italian = Nessun Dorma = written in Italian. Of course, that doesn't mean composers didn't write in different languages. That's fine.

    What I was saying was that it sucks to translate a song like this classic into English when it wasn't written that way. And it also sucks that Gillan was singing. His voice is not an opera voice and it sounded bad.

  • I'd rather say that his (Gillan's) voice sounded... different. At first hearing it sounded to me bad, too. But more I listen, more I like it.

    I can understand Your point of view, Your arguments, but You must know, that I learned music on The Beatles and Deep Purple firstly... Classic music and opera came to me later ;)

    Anyway - thank You for interesting commentary.

  • @chatochido TROLL

  • oh my fuking god is this supposed to be some sick joke or what? for fuck's sake this is so wrong

  • Horrible Ian Gillan... just disgusting

  • @chojinkid

    quell'acuto lo trovi nel live BBC '79-'80 della Gillan band, esattamente in "roller" e "smoke on the water", cmq sia ti consiglio di guardare i vari video presenti qui scrivendo Ian Gillan Vocal Range...

  • @nazzare79 D6? a me risulta che più in su di un A5 (quello di child on time) non sia mai andato, per altro pezzo che per pochi anni è riuscito a fare live

  • are you KIDDING me?????

  • Whi?

  • la voce di Gillan ottiene uno standing ovation quando entra e la trovo da brividi...è chiaro che alla sua età non ha più la voce di una volta (raggiungeva il D6 che per un baritono qual'è è fenomenale)...la sua interpretazione cmq rimane unica come unico è lui...
