Pavarotti - R. I. P.

(Ben Heine - Cartoons)Luciano Pavarotti, the Italian singer whose ringing, pristine sound set a standard for operatic tenors of the postwar era, died early this morning at his home in Modena, in northern Italy. He was 71.

Barry White, Bryan Adams, Meat Loaf, Alex Britti, Joe Cocker, Jovanotti, James Brown, Michael Bolton, Dolores O'Riordan, Zucchero, & Elton John all appearing with the master of voice...
Expand "read the poem" to hear and see them all and celebrate this man's gift.



And a solo by the singer that all others should aspire to.

Luciano,

May your winged voice soar above the world's desperation...
