The world of music isn't quite the same without this man.......a true great

[Scotitalic]

Wow, I'm still looking for my jaw. I can't believe he could emit such a sound.

[SuperUfoSub]

Trop fort

@kilbraur

actually the Mario Lanza version is here from 1951

I realized the other one I posted was from 1953 by Di Stefano

@kilbraur

The song goes way back. Here it is in 1951 (before Elvis) by Mario Lanza

The song itself was composed in 1902 by Ernesto De Curtis.

Elvis loved it, and he was a huge fan of Mario Lanza, whom Elvis regarded as the greatest singer on the planet;

So Elvis recorded it, and did it in a "Foreign Language" -that is English. The song was originally in the Neapolitan dialect

@kratz53 Wow, you are easily wound up! I think I pull your strings more often.

[kilbraur]

@babystinky The date of this concert is 1982 and Elvis recorded this in the early 60s so who copied who? This one is all foreign, can't understand a word of it, probably some European language like French or German if you ask me. Listen to Elvis sing it and you can understand all the words.

@kilbraur

No. Elvis copied the song and sung it in a 'foreign language' -the dialect is originally Neapolitan

[kratz53]

kilbraur.... You will probably never read this and that is too bad. I grew up listening to Elvis and I loved his music (all of it). But this man's voice is like all the Gold in Fort Knox in one moment in time. You obviouslay lack culture. If the zenith of your musical capacity is Elvis' Surrender, or Elvis at all. You are seriously lacking of life itself and live in a damned cave. Pavarotti was a gift to us and you Spit on him, Like tihe Roman's Spit on Christ. How Sad!

[kilbraur]

@DutchHPfan1992 I take it you haven't heard Elvis then. That last song was an Elvis song (Surrender) and this guy has just copied it and changed the words to a foreign language so no one spots it.

Breathtaking. One of the greatest that ever lived. He is sorely missed.
