More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
I started as a lyrical singer. But it was through the pop universe that I reached international fame.
Andrea Bocelli
My style in Italian is very old-style.
Andrea Bocelli
Music is a prerogative of those who are willing to spend time to study it, understand and love it, well aware of the fact that one life is not enough to improve just one single note of what has already been written and performed.
Andrea Bocelli
Singing provides a true sense of lightheartedness. If I sing when I am alone, I feel wonderful. It's freedom.
Andrea Bocelli
I prefer to work for my country in a free and independent way. I was born free, and I want to die free. I am always suspicious of ideology. Instead, I respect men with ideas.
Andrea Bocelli
In singing, you cannot 'cheat' if you want to give emotions to those who are listening. You must have something to tell.
Andrea Bocelli
I don't have an extraordinary degree of self-confidence, but I know the gift I have been given from God and I try to share it with as many people as possible. Having a great voice is not a merit. I don't think it is a merit.
Andrea Bocelli
I change the language with which I use my voice. In opera, I know I have an orchestra behind me I have to communicate to people very far from me.
Andrea Bocelli
I'm quite shy, so I hate seeing my private life splashed over the papers.
Andrea Bocelli
I respect very much my public and also the music I perform.
Andrea Bocelli
An opera singer is like an athlete before a match. An athlete cannot overdo anything. In order to perform at the highest possible level, you need to refrain from activities so as to be able to express this power.
Andrea Bocelli
The activity of a singer that sings opera is similar to that of an athlete.
Andrea Bocelli
When you sing opera you are very far from the people, you are onstage, and between you and the people there is the orchestra. So you have to launch your emotions very, very far. When you sing pop, you are singing very close - the microphone is very close to your mouth. You can whisper your emotions into the microphone.
Andrea Bocelli
A positive frame of mind will definitely enhance your travelling experience. If I'm not in a positive frame of mind then the whole thing definitely becomes more of a challenge for me.
Andrea Bocelli
If you don't have the possibility of listening to music, you can't know if you love it.
Andrea Bocelli
I was an agnostic until I realized that I had to choose between God and fate. The idea that humanity and nature are the result of fate was not convincing at all. I find the presence of God everywhere.
Andrea Bocelli
You can be great only if it is your destiny.
Andrea Bocelli
I love eating shabu-shabu in Japan - a kind of beef hotpot. But if you're talking about authentic, traditional food, then Italian cooking is one of the best in the world.
Andrea Bocelli
I don't like crying. I'm a country boy, and we're the product of our upbringing. As a boy, I was told that men don't cry.
Andrea Bocelli
I don't know if One Direction will stand the test of time. I have a niece who goes crazy for them. But the only way to judge art is to wait and see if it becomes evergreen. This takes a bit of time. Adele is a very good musician and I'd like to sing with her. But, again, time will tell if her music will become evergreen.
