Luciano Pavarotti is not just a "popular singer in Italy" - he is the MOST famous operatic tenor in the world. Along with Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras they formed a power tour called "The 3 tenors", check them out and with that hopefully you can open your mind to the beautiful world of opera a bit :) ♥♥♥ PS: Luciano's "Ave Maria" is a gem as well by itself. Get your tissues ready girl ;)
James was a guest on Luciano's stage....as was the case for all of the other "popular music" stars during this concert. Luciano is/was a world renowned legend.
That this video and version even exists is a true miracle. Pavarotti is probably the greatest tenor ever. World famous. Try Nessun Dorma by him for a real operatic treat
@@rexsterlingbuchanan2929 Good thing about Nessun Dorma in this channnel is it’s only a few minutes long. Not the full opera, just a snippet really. World wide hit as it was the theme song for the World Cup at the time
Anyone on Rob Squad Patreon I highly suggest James Brown " Outta Sight live on the Tami Show 64" . This video displays his live performance at it's peak. 🔥 if unfamiliar check yourself!!
When my daughter was 7 (now 20) I walked in her room and she was watching "The Three Tenors". (Pavoratti included). She was in tears. She looked at me and said "This is so beautiful"... His voice is universal. Breathtaking.
That's the great thing about opera. Most of us don't understand the words they are singing, but it makes us feel just by the power of their voices. Great story!
Yes, Luciano Pavarotti was the world's pre-eminent opera star. He did several concerts consisting of these duets with established pop stars. This is my favorite. But check out his duet with Tracy Chapman singing her hit "Baby Can I Hold You," or his duet with Barry White doing Barry's hit, "You're the First, the Last, My Everything." It'll put goosebumps on your arms.
Luciano Pavarotti was an opera singer and one of the best tenors to ever live. You should do a reaction to his "Nessun Dorma". He also sang with many pop artists. You can also check out his work with the Three Tenors. You won't be disappointed.
You must know that Pavarotti make this performance ill with cancer, he lost his parent 4 days before the concert, and was recently operated of the knee. The guy was about 60% of his potential in that moment, but he still banged the song 😍😍
Luciano Pavarotti is not just an Italian singer .... he is, together with Caruso, the greatest tenor of all time ... .. known in every corner of the world ... if you want, give reactions to Luciano Pavarotti in "Vesti la giubba" “La donna e’ mobile "" Nessun dorma "..." Tosca "..." Ave Maria "... or with colleagues Jose 'Carrera and Placido Domingo ... Italian’ s pride!!!!🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹❤️❤️❤️❤️
Luciano “Pav-o-rawatti” is an Italian opera singer but he had a lot of respect for other forms of music. I love several of his songs but my favorite is Nessun Dorma. It translates to None Shall Sleep. It’s from Turandot about an unknown prince who falls in love with an icy princess at first sight. Any man who wants to marry her must answer three riddles correctly or they will be beheaded. He answers her riddles but she still does not want to marry him. He gives her another chance by telling her if she guesses his name by morning she can execute him. So she forces all of her subjects to stay awake and search for his name. In the last line he sings “fade you stars, at dawn I will win”. The best part of it is that it sounds victorious the way he sings it!
Next: Pavarotti singing Nessum Dorma (live) Then Aretha Franklin singing Nessum Dorma live at the Grammys as a last minute replacement for an ill Pavarotti. You’re welcome.
His performances in arias such as in "La Boehme" for instance are what gives one a true example of the actual breadth of his talent. He was an icon of the opera world and why not begin there? This fad of his using that voice to belt out "popular" stuff was IMO, casting pearls before swine. Even the non-operatic pieces like " Torna a Surriento" are a better choice. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wbdM7yuNGYI.html
Pavarotti may he rest in peace.... One of the best voices in the world ever ❤ Fun fact for you.... He did a concert in Hyde park and the speaker system failed... What he did was to go closer to the stage edge and everyone heard his magic
“Might be a popular singer in Italy.”😳 only the most celebrated voice of all time!!!💯Nessun Dorma y’all…Nessun Dorma. And “Livin in America” by James Brown.
What I love about this performance is you have possibly two of the greatest singers in their respective fields, and they are having fun. All too often when legends get together, egos get I'm the way, but those smiles say it all. RIP to them both.
Yesssss I have recommended this artist in another one of your reactions, Luciano Pavarotti, Nessun Dorma it will blow your mind These too talents together in combination with the orchestra and singers awesome Loved your reaction
James Brown - SO many great hits ! "Ain't No Sunshine" , "I Feel Good", "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag". Too many to mention ! LOVE this pick but I do LOVE the soul !!
You have to listen to Pavarotti sing Nessun Dorma" Every time I hear it my scalp is covered with goose bumps. Yes, he's an opera singer....one of the most famous....
He was a famous opera singer. This collaboration between these two opposite styles was nothing short of genius. We are so blessed that this performance was recorded.
I had to have watched this video, easily, 200 times and every time that I watch it I cry my eyes out. These two singers are so beautiful and perfect together.
I agree with everyone who recommended “Nessun Dorma” sung by Pavarotti! Just make sure you have tissues on hand lol 😆! He definitely made that song his own! No one can sing it like him!
Luciano Pavarotti Cavaliere di Gran Croce OMRI was an Italian operatic tenor who during the late part of his career crossed over into popular music, eventually becoming one of the most acclaimed and loved tenors of all time.
Luciano Pavarotti is probably the most famous opera singer in the world. He is Italian, but the whole world knows him. He passed away, but once in a while, he would do duets with pop singers.
I just heard this cut for the first time on another channel, all I got to say is WOW. The orchestra is on point, sounds just like the original. James's voice and his screams, Pavarotti, and that voice....WOW. Oh, and James has a LOT of popular songs (this being one of them), 50's-90's, and so does Pavarotti. This is a "mashup" for the ages.
Paravrotti and friends concert , even had him singing with the Irish Band Boyzone singing their song NO MATTER WHAT. You need to listen to Freddie Mercury of Queen singing with a female Opera singer singing Barcelona live concert. Which is brilliant
Two legends :) Luciano Pavarotti was an opera legend!!! Internationally known...did many duets and was part of the famous opera trio The Three Tenors :)
Pavarotti is one of the fabled 3 Tenors, along with Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras. They’re probably the most well-known opera singers of our generation.
My favourite James Brown songs are Get Up Offa That Thing and Papa's got a Brand New Bag. Pavarotti is the world's greatest tenor. It's worth listening to him performing Nessum Dorma if you truly want to be shook by opera
Pavarotti's verse translated: Man chases the power but doesn't know great limits has to be how it will be done In his palm he holds an idea that doesn't live in his imagination… he wanted If you don't notice that then nothing makes sense if you live only for yourself
Such a beautiful blend of old and new world music, by two masters of their craft. While he was alive, Pavarotti was considered by many to be the greatest living vocalist.
I don't care for opera, BUT........ Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman - Time to Say Goodbye, is a great performance. Freddie Mercury w/ Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona, is also amazing.
Luciano Pavarotti did a series of 10 charity concerts between 1992-2003. Concerts were called "Pavarotti and Friends" With DOZENS of recording artists from Soul-R&B-Blues-Country-Pops- Rock-Opera. You would enjoy the concert with Barry White (You're my first, my last, my everything) and then another with your old friend Tom Jones (Delilah).
The way you guys love the emotion in music/voices, you’d probably love opera. And Pavarotti is the best tenor that has ever lived so maybe give ‘Nessun dorma’ or ‘Ave Maria’ a listen. 🗣
Pronounced Lou chi ano. Pavvarotee a sadly deceased Italian tenor. You need to listen to Nessus Dorma by Pavarotti or The thee tenors, Pavarotti , Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras . I will try to find an example and drop a link. Loved your reaction.
If "Nessun dorma" is the last piece of opera music you're gonna listen before you die one day, you can pass away in peace! A masterpiece of classic music!
If you like Luciano Pavarotti you should listen to Andrea Bocelli. You probably heard I got you or Papa's got a new bag. I like how you're expanding your musical tastes.
Do you all realize how incredibly rare this is, to have the greatest Opera singer in the world singing with the one and only James Brown!! Epic AF!! Also, that screen is to tiny, and please don't pause at the beginning of the videos. I almost fell out my chair! Thank you.
As others have already said you should hear Pavarotti doing “Nessun Dorma” live. I surprised you haven’t heard his name growing up. The most famous operatic tenor of all time. He was known all over the world. He brought opera to the masses in a big way.
PAVAROTTI'S VERSE: (Translation) Man runs the power but doesn't know great limits has to be how it will be done In his palm he holds an idea that doesn't live in his imagination… he wanted If you don't notice that then nothing makes sense if you live only for yourself
I can't help loving you two. I was raised by musician parents. They had hits and were nominated for a Grammy. I'm 70 now. You are teaching music appreciation in such a wonderful manner.
THIS IS OFF THE CHAIN!!! Never heard of it. I would not have believed it if you told me they sang together. They killed it. I guess if you put two professionals together they're gonna do something good. Luciano is Opera, a whole new dimension of music. Love you Guys, Paul
Man I am so glad that your fans told you to watch this because growing up in the 80s there's no way that we could have had access to this this was a once-in-a-lifetime you had to catch it at the time on TV type thing. I saw it one time. It's never been put on television again but I know of and I forgot all about it. Thank you internet and thank you rob Squad!
Well.... he's top 10 of all time. Caruso, Björling (the purest tenor I've ever heard), Corelli, Gedda, Jon Vickers for crying out loud, and of course Domingo all belong on that list.
@@Verlopil 🤠 Wouldn't you have loved being in an audience to witness Caruso perform live? Wow. I'm in Galveston, Texas, and I believe he performed at our Grand Opera House back in the day! 👍🗣
@@johnenglish1955 That would have been amazing! I've read that his voice was so powerful that they had to position him 20 feet back from the recording setup so he didn't overwhelm the equipment. And yet he had such a wonderful emotion and nuance to his performance. If there were a time-traveling trip to hear all the great tenors you can bet I'd be there for it!
You must react to these two versions, Tom Jones‘s version, as well as Christina Aguilera… She did this song at the Grammys the day after James Brown passed away. Both versions are sensational one by another man and one by a woman who really knocked it out of the park
She did it at the Grammys the day after he died or that week of the Grammys which I think was 2008. So look up Christina Aguilera Grammys, “this is a man’s world” on RU-vid and you’ll see it
Just to nicely show another side, I have never understood the obsession with him or that song!!!! He actually kinda grosses me out. I know I'm going to get killed for sharing my opinion but there you go.
If you be liking a little opera..... try the song The Phantom of the Opera! Or watch the movie. The best version starring Gerald Butler as the Phantom!
WOW!!!!! These two are awesome together. Luciano Pavarotti, and James Brown. This is wonderful to hear this. Two Legends that came together, show you that times of these two singers can unite. I wish I was there to see this
n Pavarotti and Friends, THE MAESTRO mixed and sing peace's messages. In this song for example he remembered to all humanity that "man doesn't live only for himself". Greatest and powerest of all time. From Italy to the Heaven. GRAZIE MAESTRO
I just had to record this. I can't believe what I'm seeing it was amazing. I once saw a opera singer and the girl sang pop on AGT. It was great but this floored me. Thank you 😘
James Brown was quite the showman in his concerts and put on a SHOW. And Pavarotti had charisma and that voice. I have seen both and you would have loved them
