This review is from: The Best Of Andrea Bocelli Vivere (CD & DVD Deluxe Edition) (Audio CD)
Andrea Bocelli, the world's most popular tenor (and Best selling) and pop sensation as well, has recorded The Best of Andrea Bocelli, Vivere what is a wonderful collection of his crossover (semi classical pop) songs and is a must for every Bocelli fan. Every song on the CD is wonderful and all the hit songs have been re mastered (or remixed) and sound better than ever.
The Songs include a nice selection of some of Bocelli's best work (it would take a 10 CD set to give us all of his best work-both clasicl and Popular); Bocelli has a very beautiful voice, that expresses much emotion. His tone and diction are excellent and his Volume is much better then the critics claim, he voice is always moving, his singing touches one's heart and goes righ into ones soul. The tracks include Songo; from the Songo album; It may be his best song ever. IL Mare Calmo Della Sera from the Romanza album (and an Earlier Album with the tital IL Mare Clamo Della Sera); this was his first hit and was...Read more

NICE COMPILATION,
October 30, 2007 Music Fan "Marce" (Argentina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Best Of Andrea Bocelli Vivere (CD & DVD Deluxe Edition) (Audio CD)
This cd isn't a compilation only, you can find some new songs. It's incredible that I could find this cd in Argentina some days before its release in America, and in that country it can fe found in two versions: the italian and the spanish version. The content of both versions are
similar, with very few differences. For the known songs, there's nothing new, and in general terms, nothing wrong with the songs selected.
The new songs ("La voce del silenzio", "A te" and "Bellisime Stelle") are just beautiful. The only real surprise is a new version of "Vivire", sung as a duet with Laura Pausini, with a new english lyric in the italian CD version, where Laura sings in english while Andrea does it in italian, this is the only thing I don't like too much. In the spanish CD version, both Andrea and Laura sings in spanish, which has much more sense. The arrangements are also different compared with the version appeared on the "Romanza" CD, which I prefer to this new.
If you buy...Read more

Bellissimo!,

This review is from: The Best Of Andrea Bocelli Vivere (CD & DVD Deluxe Edition) (Audio CD)
To me, unwrapping a Christmas present that includes a beautiful CD/DVD pack such as Andrea Bocelli's DeLuxe Edition of "Vivere" is one of the most wonderful things Christmas is made of. To Patrick and Deanna, a million thanks to both of you for your thoughtfulness! I have been enjoying this lovely CD and the amazing DVD showing Andrea Bocelli's "American Dream" concert at the Statue of Liberty.
The CD has an impressive collection of sixteen songs saturated with beautiful melodies and romantic lyrics flawlessly interpreted by Mr. Bocelli starting off with "La Voce Del Silenzio" to the final track, David Foster's "Because We Believe." His special guests are Laura Pausini in "Vivere," Celine Dion in "The Prayer," Kenny G in "A Te," showcasing his masterful sax playing, Sarah Brightman in "Con Te Partirò," Giorgia in "Vivo Per Lei" and pianist Lang Lang in "Io Ci Sarò."
Mr. Bocelli is not only an outstanding singer, but also a lyricist and composer in...Read more
