[@mikeprevost8650]

It's difficult to do a side by side comparison due to the very poor quality of the recordings of Caruso that have survived. For what it's worth, Jussi sang this a half step higher than Caruso (singing in the original French) for reasons that only Jussi knows.

[@DEATH-THE-GOAT]

[@Vandraren1000]

I always feel such a sorrow in his voice, in spite of his incredible singing technique and power, there is this X-factor that moves so many to their tears. The swedish melancoly? So many of our folksongs are so filled with sorrow but, it does'nt really explain. It's a part, surely, but, as far as my knowledge streches, there's another element in his story. His father David was a very very good singer and pedagogue and made this trio of his sons, Olle, Gösta and Jussi to do tours in North America and Europe when just 5, 6 years old. That gave Jussi his fenomenal technique but, as I have learned, his fenomenal voice also made it natural for all, possibly even himself, to sing at his mothers funeral, at the age of seven. I believe he sang for his beloved and much missed mother for the rest of his life. Listen again and think of my words.

[@TheMorbia]

Kallar det "Svensk blues".

[@artashes]

Yes, I love Jussi's voice, way way better than even Enrico Caruso, Gigli, Lanza, Schipa and the others, so you really don't have to be Italian to sing Italian Opera...Jussi, one of the Trio Swedish singers could do Art Song, Neapolitan Folk Songs, and OMG OPERA...I use to collect Jussi's records back in Calcutta, India on the old shellac 78 RPM records.... An interesting incident from "JUSSI"the book written by Ana-Lisa Bjoerling & Andrew Farkas (and which I own and treasure with many pages highlighted and dog-eared) The incident was when David Bjoerling went to New York to the Metropolitan Opera House to study and sing...he actually met and sang for the great Enrico Caruso and I guess pissed off Caruso so badly that Caruso slapped David Bjoerling...but guess what? David slapped him back...too bad in those days outrageous T-Shirts were not in vogue...David could print on a T-Shirt..."I slapped Enrico Caruso and now all I've got is this lousy T-Shirt" ROFLMAO There's an Armenian Bass-Baritone named Pavel Lisitsian that had that rich VERY NATURAL voice that Jussi had...I've not heard anyone else with the sonorous, soulful...words cannot describe Jussi Bjoerling's gift and talent...To me he NO QUESTION ABOUT IT...is the Greatest Tenor that has ever lived...to bad he died so very young at age 38, Caruso died at age 48 too...They're both probably entertaining GOD in Heaven...hah hah hah

[@pederlettstroem980]

And he sang for his beloved father too. His father who worked so hard together with Jussis' sieblings. And then suddenly his father died. And at that time it was poverty in most of the places in Sweden. So they had a hard time after his father's death. What you wrote is just what I believe too. And he had a deep soul of just life and living. I like other tenors too. I admire for example Pavarotti very much and Caruso and Gigli and other great tenors, but to listen to Jussi is just something that like a beautiful arrow touch your heart. Merry Christmas 2017.

[@道-p2e]

childhood hardship and losing mother at that young age, we all know it will stick to the youngster's mind all through his life. I am sure that is the very reason to make him sing so spiritually and with unique take than anyone else, it is a bit sad, but not deep sorrow, blended with proud, hope, strength, honesty, and clean clear voices...love so much,

It can NEVER be Christmas without Jussi Björling, alone on the top still today.

[@roberthowes7827]

What an incredible voice, Caruso's recordings unfortnately were marred by the studios, so Jussi has to be number one in the world for his renditions of arias.

[@Grottgreta]

It is rumoured that Pavarotti once said "Don't compare me to Jussi, I am only a human."

[@judithross789]

Amazing tenor voice with all the control and gentleness needed for this carol!!!!

[@Arlianor]

My pleasure, my friend. Glad you liked it. I too love this song. Luckliy Jussi recorded it for us shortly before he died. Sweden would have been a gloomier place without this wonderful song at Christmas.

[@Gittas-tube]

Jussi har ej sin like! Beundrad även av världens största sångare. Övertygelse, styrka och kraft utan att det övergår till ett skrik eller ett vrål. Gör efter, den som kan! There is nobody like Jussi Björling! Admired by everybody, even by the world's greatest singers. Conviction, strength and power, without ever turning into shrieking or shouting.

[@edc641]

"Gör efter, den som kan!" Jag önskar alla som försöker ett stort lycka till. Hittills har ingen lyckats.

[@marieljunggren8568]

Ger mig rysningar å tårar i ögonen varje gång jag spelar den. Jussi var den absolut bästa tenoren, någonsin. Hans perfekta timbre, pitch och framför allt den känsla med vilken han sjunger. Jussi 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖❣️

[@Arlianor]

Underbar kommentar, kära Marie. Tack för den. Ha nu en underbar fortsättning på julhelgen. ;-)

[@peterlarsen7779]

Præcis samme påvirkning han har på mig! 🙏

[@Peter_1986]

Ja, jag tror faktiskt inte att en operasångare kan bli bättre än så här; det här är den absoluta toppen.

[@kjellbertilsson1286]

A Master Piece !! Jussi är 1900-talets störste tenor !!!

[@andrewshrives4694]

Jussi Bjorling is the greatest tenor that I have ever heard, absolutely magical.

[@ohlsson3447]

Nästan enda gången jag gråter under året, är julaftons morgon när jag lyssnar på Jussi Björling. Vilken röst. Helt underbart!!

[@janneklang4929]

Den här låten med Jussi är jul för mig. Många har försökt, men ingen har lyckats att sjunga den så innerligt vackert och ingen har heller någonsin haft en liknande pipa. Tack Arlianor och God Jul.

[@r.kjlbey7498]

The most amazing voice ever to sing this song.

[@reiskaviipurista]

You could be right sir.

[@celinejohnston3694]

I agree 👍🇮🇪🇸🇪.

[@Arlianor]

Idag den 23 december 2016 ungefär klockan 23.30 så passerade våran älskade Jussis "O Helga Natt" det magiska miljonstrecket! Riktigt kul att få uppleva detta så här dagen innan Dopparedagen. Det tog lite drygt 8 år och 9 jular att nå dit, men den som väntar på något gott... Denna video är f.ö. nu den tredje mest sedda Jussi-videon på You tube. Ettan ligger bara 30 000 titt före och lär bli passerad inom de närmaste dagarna. Stort tack till alla Jussi-vänner som tittat på och tyckt om denna video under åren som gått. Tack tack och God Jul till oss alla från oss alla :-) Leve Jussi och Leve Sverige (och övriga Norden)!

[@carldahlin5620]

Tack arianor. Världens genom tiderna största tenor!!!!!!!!!

[@hwh1946]

I think I understood about 30% of what you wrote but the meaning is clear even if all the words are not. Leve Jussi och Leve Sverige. Thank you.

[@jan-egilfjeld1580]

This may very well be the best ever recording of this mighty song.

[@suffes1]

Would like to add that this version has a total of 3,500,000 clicks on You tube !! The single most played Björling upload is Pearl Fisher Duet with 1,300,000 clicks. Nesun Dorma has 1 120 000, just about as yours here.

[@Misioneromarkusgreen]

Borde ligga på runt 100 miljoner, så bra som han sjunger den...!

[@ArildJohan69]

Denne sang er mare helt magisk, ingen over ingen ved siden, Dette er den desidert beste julesang som noengang er laget, og trolig vill det aldri komme noen bedre sang. Jussi Bjørlig var STOR. Svenskene må være utrolig stolt for en så fantastisk tenor som Jussi. Er enig med Astrid Klevstul Jeg klarer ikke la være å ikke gråte, Dette skyldes at sangen er så utrolig nydelig. Flotte bilder som lagt opp til video!!

[@larsvbundli1740]

smethwick nu struntar du! selv i norge vet vi hvem jussi bjørling er

[@tomaseriksson6366]

Att den uppväxande generationen inte vet något om kultur är ju beklagligt. Men visst känner många svenskar till Jussi. Han är en av världens stora tenorer - fast om jag måste välja den främsta operaartisten jag någonsin har hört så blir Norges egen Kristen Flagstad. Ja visst var Birgit Nilsson fantastisk men ingen slår Kirstens undersköna stämma...detta program är fantastiskt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaiWi6Vjnt59Z8U

[@ramonavandermerwe1159]

​@@larsvbundli1740 He is known all over the world, even here in South Africa, we love this man and his stunningly beautiful voice!

[@gorankrantz2912]

Pavarotti once asked, can you sing this better than Jussi? He said I'm not a magician.....Yes, Jussi the best tenor so far

[@zannetti923]

Didn't he says "I am only mortal"? But he was right. Jussi was truly Immortal! 🙏🔥❤️🌌

[@mikeprevost8650]

@@zannetti923 "I am only mortal" or "I am only human". I've heard both.

[@Demo-critus]

Goosebumps (gåshud) every time.

[@DEATH-THE-GOAT]

Every picture looks like it's from Sweden. Jussi would have been proud to see he's beloved Sweden and Dalarna, Borlänge for being depicted in this video. 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

[@jrwjr45]

Perhaps the greatest tenor ever. I'm of Italian heritage and revere Caruso,but,Jussi was his equal !

[@Arlianor]

That is great praise indeed. Merry Christmas James.

[@sandranorth9621]

Jussi is the best Swedish Finn I have known since my Dad., who could sing in the high registers like this. I call my grandson Jussi. (John in Finnish, an endearment term for Swedes from Finnland). Enjoy this singling early and often in this holiday season.

[@stefanolov]

Bara en riktigt stor artist kan nå in i hjärtat och röra en till tårar..

[@juharamo1619]

En av de största gåvorna man kan ha är att kunna röra människors hjärtan och den gåvan hade Jussi Björling. Vilken gudomlig röst, vilken skakande upplevelse! Tack, Jussi, för allt det vackra du gett oss. One of the most precious gifts one can have is the ability to touch people's hearts - like Jussi Björling did, What a divine voice, what a shaking experience! Thank you, Jussi, for all the beauty you have given us.

[@puttemundus2861]

Jeg husker fra min barndom hvor vidunderlig det var å lytte til kristen musikk i Ønskekonserten hver uke. Denne salmen med Jussi Bjørling var en av mine største favoritter!

[@Ecthelion1967]

Björling är unik och underbar. Men jag måste erkänna att norskan Kyrkjebö är en av mina favoriter också-

[@MrKallegubben]

Vid 4.20 bryter man fullständigt ihop. Går inte att ta till sig, så starkt är det. Lev för alltid i våra minnen, käre Jussi. Den störste sångaren på Jorden.

As a matter of fact, he has some Finnish blood, his grandma is Finnish. His name is Johan Jonatan Bjorling. It was his grandma who started calling him Jussi - Poika, Finnish nickname for Johan boy. So he is part of your country 👍👍
