I know it's Puccini: Gianni Schicchi: O Mio Babbino Caro (Oh My Beloved Father), but I can't find out which version. I think it's either Renee Fleming or Sarah Brightman. Anyone help?
Personally, I can only listen to O Mio Babbino Caro as sung by either Maria Callas or Renata Tebaldi. Different voices, but equally marvellous.

When I listen to anyone else singing O Mio Babbino Caro I can't help but compare them with Callas and Tebaldi, and so far all have fallen short.

I found these on YouTube, the sound quality isn't the greatest but...
