Luciano Pavarotti
Luciano Pavarotti (12 October 1935 - 6 September 2007), an Italian tenor, was one of the most famous singers of the past century, not only in the world of opera and classical music, but across all genres.

After abandoning the dream to become a professional football goalkeeper, Pavarotti spent seven years in vocal training and began his career as a tenor in 1961 in Italy. He sang in houses in the Netherlands, Vienna, London, Ankara, Budapest, and Barcelona.

He was born in Modena to the family of a baker. After abandoning the dream to become a professional football goalkeeper, Pavarotti spent seven years in vocal training and began his career as a tenor in 1961 in Italy. He sang in houses in the Netherlands, Vienna, London, Ankara, Budapest, and Barcelona.
He soon gained fame due to the power and strength of his voice. The young tenor earned valuable experience and significant recognition while touring on the invitation of soprano Joan Sutherland, making his 1965 U.S. debut in Miami, Florida on her recommendation. His position was solidified in the years between 1966 and 1972, during which Pavarotti first appeared at Milan's seminal La Scala, at other major European houses, and, in 1968, at NYC's Metropolitan Opera. He received great acclaim, particularly working well with Joan Sutherland.
By the mid-70s, the tenor became known worldwide, famed for the brilliance and beauty of his tone, especially into the upper register. His "high C" became one of his trademarks. The late 70s and 80s saw Pavarotti making significant appearances in the world's opera houses and establishing himself as one of the great singers of the era.
Popular stardom came at the 1990 World Cup in Italy with the performances of "Nessun Dorma" (from Turandot) and as one of The Three Tenors in their famed first concert held on the eve of the final match of the tournament (repeated at later Cups). Pavarotti sang together with fellow star tenors Plácido Domingo and José Carreras and brought to the much wider audience hits previously confined to the opera world. Appearances in advertisements and with pop icons in concerts around the world furthered his influence. Pavarotti always maintained his identity as an opera star, unlike many crossover artists.
The later years brought a decline in ability to perform on stage due to a weight gain and lack of mobility. Pavarotti's final appearance in an opera was at the Met in March 2004. The 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy saw him performing for the last time. Pavarotti sang Nessun Dorma, with the crowd as its Chorus, and got a thunderous standing ovation. On September 6, 2007, he died at home in Modena from pancreatic cancer.

Luciano Pavarotti Lyrics
Qui dove il mare luccica
E tira forte il vento
Su una vecchia terrazza
Davanti al golfo di Surriento
Un uomo abbraccia una ragazza
Dopo che aveva pianto
Poi si schiarisce la voce
E ricomincia il canto
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene, sai
È una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene, sai
Vide le luci in mezzo al mare
Pensò alle notti là in America
Ma erano solo le lampare
E la bianca scia di un'elica
Sentì il dolore nella musica
Si alzò dal pianoforte
Ma quando vide la luna uscire da una nuvola
Gli sembrò più dolce anche la morte
Guardò negli occhi la ragazza
Quegli occhi verdi come il mare
Poi all'improvviso uscì una lacrima
E lui credette d'affogare
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene, sai
È una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene, sai
Potenza della lirica
Dove ogni dramma è un falso
Che con un po' di trucco e con la mimica
Puoi diventare un altro
Ma due occhi che ti guardano
Così vicini e veri
Ti fan scordare le parole
Confondono i pensieri
Così diventa tutto piccolo
Anche le notti là in America
Ti volti e vedi la tua vita
Come la scia di un'elica
Ma sì, è la vita che finisce
Ma lui non ci pensò poi tanto
Anzi si sentiva già felice
E ricominciò il suo canto
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene, sai
È una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene, sai
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene sai
È una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene (dint'e vene)

Qui dove il mare luccica
E tira forte il vento
Sulla vecchia terrazza
Davanti al golfo di surriento
Uno uomo abbracia una ragazza
Dopo che aveva pianto
Poi si schiarisce la voce
E ricomincia il canto
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene sai
É una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue tinto vene sai
Vide le luci in mezzo al mare
Penso alle notti là in america
Ma erano solo le lampare
E la bianca scia di un'elica
Senti il dolore nella musica
E si alzo dal pianoforte
Ma quando vide la luna
Uscire da una nuvola
Gli sembro piu dolce anche la morte
Guardò negli occhi la ragazza
Quegli occhi verdi come il mare
Poi all'improvviso usci una lacrima
E lui credette di affogare
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene sai
É una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue tinto vene sai
Potenza della lirica
Dove ogni dramma è un falso
Che con un po' di trucco e con la mimica
Puoi diventare un altro
Ma due occhi che ti guardano
Cosi vicine e veri
Ti fan scordare le parole
Confondono i pensieri
Cosi diventa tutto piccolo
Anche le notti là in america
Ti volti e vedi la tua vita
Come la scia di un'elica
Ma si, è la vita che finisce
E non ci penso poi tanto
Anzi, si sentiva gia felice
E ricomincio il suo canto
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene sai
É una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue tinto vene sai
enes batmaz
Burası denizin parladığı ve rüzgarın sert estiği yer
Surriento körfezinde yaşlı bir terasın üstünde
bir adam genç bir kızı kucaklıyor
ve ardından bağırıyor.
Sonra boğazını temizliyor ve şarkı başlıyor.
Seni çok seviyorum
Çok ama çok seviyorum, biliyorsun.
Bu bir bağ şimdi
Biliyorsun, damarlardaki kanı eriten.
Denizin ortasındaki ışıkları gördü
Amerikadaki akşamları düşündü
Fakat onlar sadece balıkçı teknelerinin lambaları
ve uyanan pervanelerin beyazıydı
müzikteki acıyı hissetti
piyanonun başından kalktı
bir buluttan süzülen ayı görünce
ölüm daha tatlı geldi
genç kızın gözlerini gördü
ki bu gözler deniz kadar yeşildi.
sonra aniden bir damla gözyaşı döküldü
ve adam boğulduğunu düşündü
liriğin gücü
Her dramanın yalan olduğu
Biraz makyajla ve taklitle
Bir başkası olabildiğin yer
Fakat iki göz sana bakıyor
Oldukça yakın ve gerçek
Sana bütün kelimeleri unutturuyor
düşüncelerini karıştırıyor.
Ve böylece her şey önemsiz bir hale geliyor
Amerikada’ki geceler bile
Ve ardına bakıyor, hayatını görüyorsun
Pervanelerin uyanışı gibi
Ah evet, hayat bitiyor
Fakat o artık bunu daha fazla düşünmüyor
Zaten kendini oldukça mutlu hissediyor
Ve tekrar şarkısını söylemeye başlıyor.
Seni çok seviyorum
Çok ama çok seviyorum, biliyorsun
Bu bir bağ artık
Biliyorsun, damarlardaki kanı eriten.

Lo estás escuchando. Mientras lo recuerdes seguirá vivo porque vivo sigue tu amor por él y viva tu memoria y te emociona su recuerdo.
Dichoso tu sentimiento.

I live in Italy. When the govenment ordered us to go into quarantine, my town became a ghost town almost overnight. Only one supermarket and one drugstore were allowed to stay opened for bare essentials. Everything went silent. It was eerie. Sureal.
Every morning, my elderly neighbour who lived across the street from me would sing while watering is flowers on his balcony. I remember how much that annoyed me, how I wanted to tell him to shut up while I was having my coffee.
But then, the virus hit and aside from the odd ambulance sirens in a distance and that heavy, dreadful silence, I would still hear him sing to his flowers every morning and it would give me a sense of normality in this nonsense. I found myself waiting for him every morning.
But one day, he just stopped singing. His balcony is still full of blooming flowers but I found out last week he died from covid-19.
When I heard the news, something snapped inside me. As if the last string of normality was suddenly cut. I hardly knew him but I was so heartbroken and I got so angry, I almost wanted to hurt someone...
Anyways, my neighbour liked to sing Pavarotti.
I promise you this, wherever you are, every morning, while I have my coffee, I'll put on some Pavarotti and I'll open all the windows so your flowers can hear it
