Oct 8, 2008 - Nessun Dorma means none shall sleep. It is from the Opera Turandot. The prince fell in love with the cold princess, and has answered her riddles so she must marry him, even though she doesn't want to. He says that if she can find out his name by dawn, she can kill him. She orders her subjects to search all night to find his name. The prince sings about how none will sleep and they won't find out til after dawn and so he will win (he sings vincero and the end, which means I will win)

Oct 9, 2008 - lip synced or not, the fact a human voice can sound like that.....it will be a long time before anyone reaches this.

Oct 10, 2008 - lip synced.......that's bull... This was his last performance in Italy.... You really think he would lip sync Nessun Dorma at his last performance. You are mistaken my friend...very mistaken

Oct 12, 2008 - Luciano Pavarotti, 1935 - 2007 October 12 - Happy Birthday Maestro. 73 years ago today the world was blessed with the most beautiful voice ever heard. Thank you for all the joy you brought into our lives. You are loved and missed, dear one - but never forgotten.

Oct 13, 2008 - According to the Wikipedia entry for Luciano, he was lip synching at the Torino Olympics.

Oct 17, 2008 - There is no way that is lip synched the muscle movements around the mouch would not be there is sound was not being produced imo

GreenFlower412363 Says:

Oct 24, 2008 - Yeah , wikipedia said he did lip synch Leone Magiera, who directed the performance, revealed in his 2008 memoirs, Pavarotti Visto da Vicino, that the performance was prerecorded 2 weeks earlier "The orchestra pretended to play for the audience, I pretended to conduct and Luciano pretended to sing. The effect was wonderful," Olympic Committee's invitation down several times because it would have been impossible to sing late at night in the sub-zero conditions of Turin in February

Oct 24, 2008 - It still sounds fabulous though, Pavarotti is a genius.

Kristian2006 Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - I'll bet when he was born, instead of the simple crying that babies usually do, he probably cried an operatic masterpeice. :P

dee1153 Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - Yes, he probably did... hey, he WAS a masterpiece! The greatest tenor of all time!!

Mavus007 Says:

Nov 3, 2008 - I assume he would be singing... It just would not be played through the "speakers". It was all pre-recorded. Also yes, Happy late birthday Maestro.

Nov 10, 2008 - Just a hint, it's not always the best idea to quote wikipedia. It's too unreliable - and all of this talk is detracting from Pavarotti's incredible last performance. Let sleeping dogs lie.

Nov 14, 2008 - he did lip sync it, wikipedia isn't a reliable source, but many other places do say it

butterflybookmark Says:

Nov 14, 2008 - Even if he did lip sync this, at least we all know that he did have a magnificent voice. He probably needed to give his voice a rest, considering that he's not as young as he used to be...

Nov 15, 2008 - excellent RIP.

ckwing888 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - he sings with such passion. r.i.p Pavarotti

Hitman1813 Says:

Nov 26, 2008 - Pavarotti did not lip sync. If he were to lip sync then why would it be sung a few keys lower. Why not just have it the original key?? There is no question. It is not lip synced

cgopie1 Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - he did lip sync though. he and everyone else admitted it a couple days after the preformance.

cgopie1 Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - And the fact that he had already been diagnosed with cancer.
