Riporto, qui di seguito, alcuni commenti che non si leggono bene nella copertina suindicata a causa della riduzione della qualità dell'immagine per adattarla a internet:
Praise for Lanza
"Yours is a voice such as is heard only once in a hundred years." - Serge Koussevitzky
"You have the greatest given throat ever heard in a young man." - Tito Schipa
"Mario Lanza has the greatest singing instrument ever bestowed on a human being." - George London
"Mario could have sung in any opera house in the world and his career could have been sensational." - Dorothy Kirsten
"I don't think he realised how good he was." - Giuseppe Di Stefano
"He had everything that one needs- the voice, the temperament, perfect diction." - Licia Albanese
"Lanza has the finest natural tenor voice I've ever heard." - Renata Tebaldi
"In fifty years people will recognise Lanza for the great artist he is." - Lawrence Tibbett (in 1950)
"His voice is phenomenal." - Helen Traubel
"Mario Lanza's singing was both convincing and full of heart." - Franco Corelli
"He is Caruso's successor." - Maria Callas
"He had a voice of enormous dramatic impact." - Placido Domingo

"He had a fantastic voice--not just wonderful--a fantastic voice." - Luciano Pavarotti
