English Recordings
Where multiple versions exist, I've highlighted what I consider the best rendition(s) in bold. In the case of significant recordings (irrespective of whether Lanza recorded the song once or multiple times), the best CD reproduction of the rendition can be located by "rolling over" the text.
Note: If you're new to Lanza, and are looking for a good collection of his English-language recordings, I would recommend either the 2004 BMG/Collectables "twofer" release: Christmas Hymns and Carols/You Do Something to Me (which also includes Lanza's magnificent 1949 rendition of "Che Gelida Manina" and his best recording of the Italian song "Lolita") or the three-CD set The Mario Lanza Collection (BMG, 1991). You'll find my amazon.com reviews of both these sets by clicking on the aforementioned titles. Inquiries about specific recordings can also be made at our forum (regardless of whether you're a member) by posting on our "Miscellaneous Lanza-related comments and questions" discussion thread.
