Oct 11, 2008 - Nelson had an affinity for the Russian language and culture which shines through in this song. I love the last note-his soft, floating pianissimo(spelling) is beautiful.Thank you for posting. Lorraine

Oct 11, 2008 - It's not supposed to be an Irish jig! It is supposed to depict misery and suffering in Czarist Russia.

Oct 11, 2008 - This version by Nelson Eddy brings me back to those far away days when my elder brother had this on an old 78, and on the reverse side was At the balalakia, thanks for posting.

Oct 11, 2008 - Good for You. This is the best rendition of all. You have to excuse the degenerate. He is out of his league here..

milllosh Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I got all emotional when I heard this version...Paul Pots did the same thing (but with a different song). Broke everyone with his voice.

Gemini730 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I agree.You don`t have to understand the lyrics to feel the soul stirring emotion in Nelson`s voice.I too love Paul Potts` voice. Lorraine

Oct 11, 2008 - Please please lets have Nelson singsBalalika (not volga)from the film Balalika

fabarahona Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - The movie is "Balalaika ", the song is beautiful . Nelson Eddy starred in many unforgetable movies with the great Jeanette MacDonald : Rose Marie, Maytime, Bitter Sweet.

Oct 11, 2008 - well said!

ArturoAlejandroS Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Reminds me prelude opus 3 nº2 of Rachmaninov.Excellent!

Yasmund Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - For us Russians it is both funny and touching. Our gentry never played the balalaika, and our peasantry/workers (singing at work the song "Dubinushka" = "Club, bludgeon") never wore black ties. But never mind, it's charming!
