  • My personal 'test' for a GREAT tenor voice:~ How rapidly does the hearing of same cause Una Furtiva Lagrima [A Secret Tear] to descend and the throat to constrict in exquisite discomfort, whilst a gallimaufry of weird emotions come welling to the surface, driven into feverish confusion as that voice weaves its particular MAGIC. For ME it's Caruso, Gigli, Del Monaco & LANZA, for sheer energy & POWER. ML causes me to 'suffer' the above VERY quickly! Thankyou, THANKYOU GOD, for GREAT voices. Amen.

  • You can really hear the passion and the love for music in his voice.

  • Lanza does sing this beautifully.... But the MOST beautiful recording I ever heard of it was done by the greatest Tenor I know of... Fritz Wunderlich.

  • Gods music..the most amazing voice that he has ever created..thank god for giving us this gift named mario

  • una version inigualable e indiscutible, esta maravillosa voz la llevo oyendo toda mi vida y no me canso de escucharla Gracias

  • there is a passion in marios voice that no other tenor has...i love caruso and pavorotti but lanza is from another world...simply amazing and beautiful

  • Me encanta escucharlo, que maravillosa voz, hay que comunicar lo que escuchamos para que los jovenes también lo difundan.

    

  • Simplesmente Fantastico, Mário Lanza é o melhor tenor que passou na história da musica classica

  • i personally think that this song should be sung much more lightly. but I still love Lanza's voice! :) Have a listen to Gedda singing this piece

  • Wowzers. This song really did give me chills. What a powerful voice, but also amazing style that really coulnd't be imitated by any singer. I think this is the best or one of the best Lanza songs ever. This man sang from the heart, technique came second, but who gives a f***. Id rather hear a singer like this over a technical singer ANY DAY. What a shame he died so young.

  • The dont make tenors like ML these days.
