@@es_haghzvd8505 You’re awesome! 😎

Him ^

isn't this a story within a story?

@@fassstEddie A months late answer you may have already googled the answer to, but no. Vesti la giubba comes from the late 19th century opera Pagliacci, and tells the brief tragedy of the stage clown Canio. In the story, he discovers his wife is having a love affair, this song is played while he's being forced into makeup and costume and put onto a stage with her because it's too late to stop the show and they must perform.

@@fassstEddie Yes. And all within this film.

You do know that there are TWO stories in this opera?

@@fassstEddie no, even more, 3 levels: a story (pagliaccio's tragedy) within a story (the opera in the theater) within a story (the film). And later on, when Pagliaccio's play will start, it will be even one more level!

Joshua Fleming It's Pagliaccio the Clown, just after discovering that his wife was cheating on him, singing (before the song he's actually supposed to sing) that his heart is broken but a clown must make his audience laugh, as they paid for it. (variation of the Paradox of Diderot)

Michael Dohmen wow BEAUTIFULLY TRAGIC

Joshua Fleming It's actually worse than that. The character is Cannio, and he's playing Pagliaccio in a play. Cannio has just been told his wife is cheating just before he has to play a character whose wife is also unfaithful, but his character doesn't know and laughs like an idiot. The irony is just awful and sad--he has to go on stage and pretend he doesn't know, all the while the audience is unknowingly laughing at his pain. The part starting at 1:56 goes like this: "Laugh, clown at your broken love! Laugh at the grief that poisons your heart!"

dorkandproudofit Thank you :)

ursmue1937 Yes

Rorshach's journal

Good Joke. Everyone laughs.

That's the best part

Such emotion

HaaHaa Haaa!!!!

David Rule like if saw in 2018

David Rule that would make it Grajedy

@@geespar1 no it would make it trajegy

No other singer can do that to me. He was truly blessed.

Try placido domingo the best.

@@nahlabella4857 try Placido Domingo

@@christopherwilson7698 I've listened to them all. Mario is the only one who sang from his soul.

@@nahlabella4857 Who did you try?

At 73, I still feel the same way.

@@Ukie88 hello there hope this finds you happy and well my friend xoxo

Dad this still makes me think of you xxx miss you 😘 ❤

It's Mario's SUPERPOWER. MOVES us to 😢

I completely agree with you. Despite of misunderstand what he is singing i can feel all his emotion, and devotion to perform this masterpiece.

What do you know more of opera than him? I know a 1000 times more than you.

What reply is that? Did you not understand what David Melrose said?

If you think this is sad and it is its absulutly heart breaking you should hear o mio babbino caro from the opera gianni schichi the verson with the little girl its absolutly fantastic

The translated lyrics have been posted in the comments since you have posted this. All the best...

Wonderful voice i have loved this man all my life when he opens his mouth i am transported into his world tragic loss to me and i should imagine millions god rest my hero x

I bet even after another 4 years That you are Still Beautiful

Can''t agree more!!! Unsurpassable!

Agreed. No matter how many times I listen to it, that part always hits me hard. It truly touches your soul like nothing else.

How can anyone live without hearing this beautiful song

***** - Well I still listen MJJ and cry as well. But it doesn't mean Michael Jackson was an high level opera singer.

Emin Guliyev I don't care if this guy is a 'high level opera singer' or not, I don't recall saying this anywhere! Why be snobbish about the supposed quality of a singer when the point is the song touching someone's soul? I don't understand your comment at all.

Ok, honey.. Just don't be angry with me!!! I just wanted to add a little bit of logic to this mess, sweetheart!!!

Emin Guliyev I'm not angry, just confused as to why some condescending grown man is taking time trying to tear down someones enjoyment of something beautiful on freaking youtube with irrelevant comments about Michael Jackson, oh sorry uh 'add logic', even though art is expression and emotion and down to personal taste. If you want logic take a math class.

:) I can only read and wait comments from such a beautiful and young lady, no matter it was all said in acrimonious fashion.

❤

I also loved his portrayal of Enrico Caruso in the 1951 biopic "The Great Caruso".

It was a great musical film, but as a depiction of Caruso's life it was complete rubbish.

@@edwardkerrigan5356 Biog rubbish (like Amadeus) but - the music!

Thank you so much

WhoKnownsAndWhoCares? Thankyou

That’s some D E E P stuff man

WhoKnownsAndWhoCares? Thanks

Thank you

YOLO Bro No shit Sherlock

george george no hon. He found out his wife is cheating on him before opening night of a play he's in where he plays a clown who gets cheated on by his clown wife. It's a comedy and slapstick. literally laughing at his pain.

@@idontcare-sf1vb only, he is not laughing. And from the lyrics it is said that he has to go on stage as a clown, in delirium he does not know what he is going to do or say. He asks himself if he is a man but laughs. He is nothing but a clown. He forces himself as a clown to turn all his pain into a smile and laugh but fails. Then 1:53 the big part. He cries that in the crowd he has to fake a smile at his broken love, his ex wife. So no laughing at his pain, he cannot contain his pain even as a clown. And that is exactly what makes this song so powerful, in the last part when he says: Pidi, aggliacco! Sul tuo amore infranto! ( Laugh clown! At your broken love!)

You dont have to understand some songs it's clear what the feeling is.

Великий тенор и прошлого и настоящего и будущего времён❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Fuck dude it's literally perfect

that line brought me here.. you can find amazing music from old movies and series

Laugh, Paglaccio! Laugh at your shattered love! Laugh at the grief that poisons your heart!!!

Nice remark, but Lanza allowed Hollywood to seduce him. He made a million Dollars on one of his movies while Tucker and Del Monaco were singing for 1,000 a performance if that much, in the 1950s

@@sugarbist Well Del Monaco and Tucker probably did okay financially but for sure Lanza touched a much bigger audience and that is to be respected too. Crazy to think Caruso attained even more popularity without television or cinema and with just primitive recording techniques

@@abcdefgh-db1to Bocelli today has also made a fortune

@@sugarbist I prefer by far modern pop music to fake opera like what Bocelli does. Unbelievable that some people think he is a great tenor

@@abcdefgh-db1to He’s good elevator music

True, I'm still a fan, even wrote a fanclub when I was a teenager so taken was I with his voice! I mean what tenor had his warmth, pp falsetto (well Vanzo also did :)) verility, power, passion, I mean, only everything...and he was handsome

O

Pavarotti had the most beautiful voice on earth but it did lack emotional expressiveness at times. I also prefer Lanza’s version.

Try Mario Del Monaco! Lanza's rendition is mostly sad and tragic. Del Monaco brings into it anger and madness as well...

Pavarotti's voice doesn't have the depth and breadth or lower register to carry this song. You want to hear him at his best? Watch him in the 1982 "Rigoletto".

@@justanotherbohemian3827 You really believe MDM is ready to kill.

you are so correct. pav said he was one of his biggest influences.

Music elitists forget music is for everyone and knows no class when it comes to society. Music is universal and they are unnatural.

I'd put Pavarotti, Lanza and Domingo in my top 5.

@@TheKwod Domingo of all, you can't be serious.

@@yogajedi3337 he's a more developed singer than many of the Golden oldies who typically do nothing for me. Vocal techniques have clearly developed after ww2, and we've witnessed many well developed signers, however emotion must still be conveyed. Give us your top 5 if u please.

You should see it live 😈

GOD - you are a prankster, have you seen Del Monaco, Lanza, Caruso, Tucker etc. live ? The big ones are dead , and cannot be replaced. 🤣

+Benjamin David Lanza did not have a dramatic voice

+sugarbist yes he did, lol

+sugarbist he was, at least, in between the spectrum of spinto and dramatic.

+darklord220 Examples of some dramatic tenors are Del Monaco, Zenatello, Slezak, Piccaluga, Melchior Vinay. Many spinto tenors were able to employ dramatic impact when needed like Corelli, Tucker, Merli De Muro Martinelli, Masini and Caruso.

sugarbist Giuseppe Giacomini are a pure dramatic tenor 😀

+Narondie Something like this is real art. Opera is like emotions and everything a human had that turned into song or performance. Right choice to like the classics
