    Your tributes to Mac and Eddy are fantastic. I love the movie Maytime and have seen it at least 15 times through teary eyes. I noticed Nelson Eddy's tears in the Czaritza scene. He loved her so much. Their life story is so sad. As sad as Maytime.

    This is also my favorite of their duets. So much emotion and when you know what was going on in their private lives, it is so much more tragic. It makes me cry every time I hear it.

    This was so beautiful. The singing, the photos of Jeanette and Nelson. I was raised on opera, classical music, show music, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Frank Sinatra, and Tommy Dorsey thanks to both my parents. I loved Maytime from my childhood. I wish there was a real Czaritza. The duet is a sad prelude for the rest of this movie. Thanks, Katie.

    For those who were not aware of it, the instrumental music for the Czaritza duet is part of Tchaikovsky's 5th Symphony. The studio adapted it for this film.

    I know your tributes are all so wonderful and I love your music selections. They are quite a match to the scenes and photos.
    Perhaps someday would it be possible to do another to the song "You Are The Reason"? I think that song would resonate quite well
    with the younger generation of which I am not a part of. I am a Baby Boomer who grew up watching JM and NE films. My late Mom adored them and I grew to love them too. Thank you for all your tributes to them on You Tube. You are amazing!

    What a tragedy. They both loved one another so much, but neither would compromise, so they lived their lives apart. That has to be heartbreaking. I think Nelson should have given in. How could he expect Jeanette to give up her career just because he did not want a working wife.

    This marvelous piece is even better while looking at the translation to English while they sing. And remember, she had just had an abortion (probably Eddy’s child) and was going to marry someone else - in real life. There are tears on Eddy’s cheeks as he sings.
    My heart is bursting with joy.
    This ecstasy is enough for me.
    I love no one on earth but you.
    A love I can never lose.

      She did not have an abortion. She was pregnant 8 times (at least) and she lost them all. And they were all Nelson's.

      Czarina: My heart is unable to cry, To mourn the death of the noble Czar who has [departed?] without my love. God forgive me! May his assassin be rewarded with eternal life. But I, his unrepenting wife, My immortal soul is in danger. Did I betray my Czar?
      Grusha: Why should you cry over the death of a tyrant?
      Czarina: You’re right. Tyranny died, not the Czar. Oh my country, my Russia. God has freed you. Amen.
      (sound of a struggle)
      Petrov is dragged in.
      Czarina: Petrov! Dear God ! It’s you!
      Dubrovsky: The Czar is dead, Long live the Czarina.
      Chorus sings in Russian
      Czarina must go out on the balcony to acknowledge the cheers of of the crowds below.
      Dubrovsky: (to Czarina) Here is the traitor’s arrest warrant for you to sign.
      Czarina: (to Petrov) Quickly defend yourself, or you will die!
      Dubrovsky: (to Czarina) You hesitate? Sign in the name of the Czar!
      Petrov: God has given the world liberty and honor.
      Petrov: (to Czarina) To you I give my life, Oh, Queen of my dear country.
      Czarina: You will surely die, dearly beloved.
      Dubrovsky: Yes! this villain [dog] must die!
      Czarina: My heart, too, will die.
      Petrov: I am giving my life so the people may live. My life has earned the ultimate reward of my death. I hear the drums [as at a hanging] My duty is done. I’m going to die. My soul is at peace.
      Czarina: Oh, dark destiny, Oh cruel sacrifice, To be condemned to death.
      Your terrible crime will separate us. Yet you have earned your fate.
      (duet next two stanzas)
      Czarina: You will be executed by the state. Which pitilessly cuts down and punishes the guilty. This shame will follow you to the grave. You die for nothing!
      Petrov: (sings simultaneously with Czarina) Death! Death! This shame will not follow me to the grave. I do not die for nothing.
      Czarina: (to everyone present) Leave us alone. I want to speak with him for a moment.
      Dubrovsky: (horrified) Your Majesty!
      Czarina: (reproving his lack of obedience) Yes, indeed, I am now your Czar!
      Petrov: My love, I recall such beautiful dreams of long ago.
      Czarina: You have no pity if you would leave me like this. My heart is also on the threshold of death.
      Petrov: This is life, not death, Life is just beginning. More than ever, I adore you.
      My soul is exalted. You have liberated me.
      Czarina: Dearest soul, you can see how much I love you.
      Petrov: To leave someone so precious to me.
      Czarina: Your courage will sustain me.
      Petrov: Whether I am in Heaven or Hell-
      I love you.
      Czarina: My heart is bursting with joy. This ecstasy is enough for me. I love no one on earth but you. A love I can never lose.
      Petrov: Only love endures, only love endures. Forever, Oh my soul is singing.
      A song divine, divine in your embrace (again a duet)
      Petrov: I live and love, come, my love.
      Czarina: In your embrace, I live and love, come my love. Come, sweet death! Love lives in death. Invincible love, Dear Lord, protect us. Dear Lord, have pity on us.
      Petrov: Dear Lord, on my knees, I beg you to have pity on us. Dear Lord, forgive me, Protect our love.
      Czarina: Dear Lord, receive the soul of my dearest love. Hear my prayer, dear Lord, protect my love. Goodbye, Goodbye.
      Petrov: (as he is dragged off) Dear Lord, protect my dearest love from harm, Protect her, I’m going to die, Lord, protect my love. Goodbye goodbye….
      (…then czarina faints in the arms of Grusha as the curtain descends.)
