I had the privilege of watching the legend live in the Pula Colosseum in Croatia 5 yrs ago, and I still get goosebumps just at the thought of Nessun Dorma echoing between the walls of the ancient amphitheatre. There were amazing tenors in the past, but then there was Pavarotti. Fullstop. SO nice to be back to such a delight of a post. Made my day. thanks xxx
And the one he did with U2 brings me to tears every single time...
I'm so uncultured... I want to love that kind of music but sadly I must be able to understand the words that are being sung in order to enjoy it. Hope you're doing well!
I too love him , no one will ever replace him.
