I've always loved this song since learning to play a simple version on the piano when I was young. In fact, I sang it around the house to my kid's amusement. It's just one of those melodies that never left me.

Since you mentioned Sherrill Milnes I have an inter-related Toreador Opera News story via Milnes and Norman Treigle. They were rehearsing/performing FAUST with his Valentin to Treigle's MEPHISTO. Milnes jumped in mid-scene after Valentin was dead w/ Treigle's entrance and booming voice. Treigle was known for his Toreador as well. Did Milnes ever sang it on stage ?
