That beautiful thing na jurnata ' and sun,

I'm 83 years old I grew up going to the movies to see all of Mario Lanza movies with my grandmother what a voice

@user-kk4sp2nz7k

Mario Lanza - soul of italian people !!! Bravo maestro from Russia!!!

@wiltonfarm4816

Best tenor of all time. Anyone giving this a thumbs down needs to see a doctor.

@DIMON_CAMI

No one, and no one ever will replicate Sr. Lanza’s gifted voice, don’t even try.

@mechanicus1080

Immer wieder grossartig, solche Aufnahmen. Wunderbare Stimmen, die ihresgleiche suchen. Männer, die noch wie richtige und gepflegte Männer erscheinen.
Und Frauen, die mit Kleidung und Frisuren Ihre Anmut und Weiblichkeit auf unaufdringliche Art betonen und hervorheben. All das kann man heute schon lange
nicht mehr erleben. Einfach schön, diese Momente in solchen Aufnahmen wieder erleben zu dürfen.

@veronicavanwilpe2596

The unforgetable Mario Lanza. A beautiful voice and a handsome man. A perfect combination. R.I.P.
