Knowing About Famous Italian Singers

By Gloria Mason


Everyone realizes that famous Italian singers can be found in many places in this world. Their music is great to listen to since it often has great lyrics and a dynamic beat. Individuals will always try to locate the music of Dean Martin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Frankie Laine, Perry Como, Luciano Pavarotti or Vic Damone.

The United States lost a true legend when Frank Sinatra passed away. "Ol Blue Eyes" was a great singer and entertainment leader to many people in Hollywood. Frank had a roving eye for the ladies and found himself walking down the wedding aisle several times. He really enjoyed the company of movie stars and this is the main reason that all of his wives were in the entertainment field.

Dean Martin was a very handsome entertainer who could charm all of the women and men around town. He enjoyed singing at many events and charities with his very good friend Jerry Lewis during the 1950's. Dean and Jerry did a number of movies together during this period and people all over enjoyed their films. Mr. Martin also did a number of variety shows which featured great stars such as Lucille Ball and Milton Berle. He dated so many lovely women who lived on the east and west coast.

People who live in Queens, New York are very proud of a man once known as Anthony Dominick Benedetto. Many fans who live over the globe know of him as Tony Bennett. This shorter name helped to push his career even further since people could remember it better. During the 50's and 60's this man was able to earn a great deal of money. Children in school consider him to be a great role model.

Perry Como's birth name is Perino Ronald Como which is a very unusual name in America. Perry used to cut people's hair while trying to make it as a recording artist. In the year 1943 he was able to sign a contract with one of the most popular recording studios in America. He also did work on television during his time as a live stage performer.

Gennaro Luigi Vitaliano changed his name to Jerry Vale many years ago. Jerry was born in the Bronx, New York and had always wanted to become a performer. He was very popular at shining shoes while attending school in New York City. He had a kind employer who liked the sound of his voice and offered to buy him music lessons and this was the break that Jerry was looking for.

Diahann Carroll was once married to the famous Vic Damone who is an excellent singer. Diahann and Vic also did musical numbers together while they were married. Damone was born in Brooklyn and still keeps in contact with his family from the old neighborhood. All of his friends call him Vito Rocco Farinola.

Everyone loves to hear famous Italian singers whenever they attend a music event. There was an overweight tenor named Luciano Pavarotti who could dazzle any audience that he appeared before. He had always considered America to be his "home away from home" during his lifetime. Unfortunately Luciano died within the year 2007 and after this the opera world changed forever.
