is there anybody out there with common sence? It is amazing!! the BBC Music Magazine has declared a singer with "narrow and pressed high tones" as the best tenor of all time!!!! that is not worth the paper it is written on!

WHO CARES? For the love of God? WHO CARES? Spare us your "the sun goes up in the east" comments. Yes we all know that those high notes are narrow and pressed. The man himself knows, we all do and we don't care because he is a magnificent opera singer. If we are going to compare every singer with The Great Pavarotti, well..

Domingo es grande; excelente actor y postura escénica y buena voz. Aunque sin duda en cuanto a expresividad vocal me gusta más la versión Pavarotti, aunque si bien no fue on stage, pero es sin duda perfecta.

Pavarotti Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!! Domingo`s high tones are narrow and pressed!

Plácido Domingo...sin duda...El mejor del mundo!!! Placido Domingo...i don't doubt...The best in the world!!!

It's different when one is ampliphied. Since Pavarotti never did this on stage, it is hard to compare it to this performance. Pavarotti was able to convey a little bit more of emotion with his voice bcause he didn't have to worry about projecting as much as Domingo is here. Pavarotti's performance, nevertheless, is amazing and without comparison.

I'm thinking it's probably the former. As you know, every person who interprets this area will add his own little "humph"... if you will. I'm thinking he does that little run, but he doesn't emphasize (i have no idea how to spell that word) it as much as the other tenors do.

One thing I'm wondering... does it sound like it to anyone else that he's singing two F#'s on "Sulla tua bocca..."? Is this an alternative version or something, because every other tenor I've heard sings it as E-F#-G-A? He doesn't do it on the second verse "dilegua o notte" line... maybe he's just taking some liberties with the melody? Or maybe my ear is just retarded?
