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
Because I practice often with my children at home.
Andrea Bocelli
I consider the voice a gift from the heavens, and as all the gifts from the heavens, they must be used, but the minute that the heavens call it back then of course I will stop.
Andrea Bocelli
Probably the first time I left Italy was to travel by train to Lourdes. I went with my mother and my grandmother - who was a very religious person - so it was a pilgrimage of sorts. I remember it as a very intense, but beautiful experience.
Andrea Bocelli
My style in Italian is very old-style.
Andrea Bocelli
Music is able to make a person dream. When you dream, you dream of something good, something beautiful, and when you dream, you always dream of yourself better than you are.
Andrea Bocelli
What is beautiful enchants me. I mean not just physical beauty but a wider concept of beauty. There is beauty in poetry and in great musical or singing performances. There is beauty everywhere if you can just see it.
Andrea Bocelli
It is not Christian to go against someone. I am in favour of life.
Andrea Bocelli
Listen to what others tell you about your voice. If you're only singing to please yourself, you might as well just sing under the shower. But if you're singing for others, you are reliant on them to ask you to sing.
Andrea Bocelli
It is the uninvolved parent who has to resort to strictness.
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 have a European frame of mind and Europe is my home.
Andrea Bocelli
In preparing my thesis, I have had the pleasure of collecting testimonies from colleagues such as Placido Domingo but also from singing teachers and musicologists. The entire course of study has confirmed what I already thought, that the value and meaning of opera singing, at the beginning of the third millennium, remain intact.
Andrea Bocelli
I was a daredevil before, and after I lost my sight I was the same. I loved riding bikes, scooters and horses. I even learned to box. Muhammad Ali is my hero.
Andrea Bocelli
I have always tried to perform the music I love, and I think I am lucky because my preferences are often the ones of the public.
Andrea Bocelli
I've always been on the side of science that tries to help man. I play an active part with the foundations I'm involved in. Science gives hope.
Andrea Bocelli
A voice is very intimate. It's something of your own. So there's always this fear, because you feel naked. There's a fear of not reaching up to expectations. As you become more famous, people come and expect to hear something extraordinary, so you don't want to disappoint them. I feel this sense of responsibility.
Andrea Bocelli
I am a product of my native land, Tuscany, Italy.
Andrea Bocelli
I am honored I have performed 'Quizas Quizas Quizas' with Jennifer Lopez, an eclectic artist who thanks to the charismatic power of her voice and to her soft sensuality, has managed to make this song particularly convincing.
Andrea Bocelli
I want to have time for myself, my family and my friends. It's important because in order to sing well, you must have inspiration, and inspiration comes from life, from living.
Andrea Bocelli
