A wonderful rendition. Popular music has certainly changed!!

@HarborGuy Agreed too!!!! it is reincarnation or soul contact. that song makes me cry and i see a scene in a house in france in a rural area with me playing the piano. ROGHARM paranormal

@GermanOperaSinger I knew nothing of opera so i cannot comment about melton singing but melton sounds great singing popular music. this performance is great. i my mother knew him as worked for Bertrand Hirsch from 1927-39. ROGHARM my theory is that people should do what they do best and not expand if they cannot really have the talent. melton was great like frank munn whom my mother knew and lanny ross. they as far as i know never sang opera but had great voices and were great popularsingers

I much prefer Melton when he's singing popular music than when he's singing opera. His light lyric voice was just too delicate for some of the operatic roles he decided to sing. Don't get me wrong, his Pinkerton for example was great but I always felt he was pushing his limits in that repertoire. He sounds perfectly at home singing this however, and one of the most beautiful renditions of this song I've listened to.

No words I could say do this song justice. Melton, John McCormack, Mario Lanza, and much later Ronan Tynan all do marvelous versions of this World War 1 song. For a couple of decades, Melton also sang another World War 1 song, "Back Home Again in Indiana," to begin the Indianapolis 500.
