Sarah Brightman & Andrea Bocelli - Time to Say Goodbye (1997) Reaction

[@mariannegoldweber1577]

Sarah brightman was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber and starred in the original phantom of the Opera. One of the most beautiful voices ever so together with Andrea Bocelli this was magical

[@kimmywimmy7305]

Marianne Goldweber Apparently Webber wrote it specifically for Sarah to play the role.

[@ramonsobreira8061]

MARIANNE GOLDWEBER, SB is really fantastic. Great voice, great interpretations. Yet, I seem to be the only one here to consider the mad and semi-porn 1978 disco song STARSHIP TROOPER, a real and misunderstood masterpiece, despite the video has been considered some years ago the worst of all times by MTV! Greets from Brazil. Merry Xmas and Happy 2020.

[@nataliemccabe3290]

Wow I didn't know that. Thank You!

[@Fumingzeus]

Ramon Sobreira it wasn’t semi porn you twat...it was a dance group of very pretty girls called Hot Gossip (they used to appear on the Kenny Everett show. If it had anything to do with porn then it wouldn’t be allowed on top of the pops, a bbc1 weekly program....

[@katherinebruce500]

When Andrea Bocelli 's mother was pregnant with him, she got very sick and her doctor told her she should have an abortion because the baby would be damaged from her illness. She chose not too and we are all blessed by that decision.

[@lorie-harleyflinchum4726]

katherine bruce I saw his testimony and it should be seen by more people! A perfect example of what the world might have lost if his mother had made that awful choice ! And a reminder to what we have lost due to abortion! Imagine who we might have here if the choice for life had been made!?!?

[@lorie-harleyflinchum4726]

I love your reaction! I’ve loved this song ever since I first heard it in the late 90’s. I used to babysit this little boy my friends adopted from Korea and he was just a toddler, but every time I played this song he would stop whatever he was doing, lie on his tummy, prop up on his elbows and rest his chin in his hands and just smile! Only to this song! It was so cute! But, as much as I love this song, I never thought it would apply to my life and make me so sad as my husband left a few months ago. Now it breaks my heart . But still...awesome to see someone else appreciate it😊

I second that. Do it. It’s a cultural experience you’ll not only never forget, but you’ll want to repeat it again. Blow away your wife/girlfriend/date and buy tickets to the theatre and just tell her to wear the classiest dress she has then watch her melt.

I fell in love with Andre Bocelli's tenor voice when I heard him do "Time to Say Goodbye" - "Con Te Partirò". Andre Bocelli is blind. These aren't "common voices"; these are trained opera singers.

This one is absolutely fantastic. Pavarotti singing Nessun Dormai I found boring and not even comparable. Sorry just my humble opinion.

[@Pezzonovante916]

Try Bruce Sledge singing "Nessun Dorma," as well. His version was at the end of the movie "The Sum of All Fears."

[@beesnort4944]

Or Aretha Franklin. Her version is stunningly beautiful as well. She filled in for him at the Grammy awards for his lifetime achievement award at the last moment and just SLAYED it! Like the QUEEN she is!

[@jamieritter3873]

This was written for Sarah by her then husband Andrew Lloyd Weber. He wrote "Cats" and "Phantom of the Opera" among other shows. Weber really knows how to show off Sarah's vocal range. I also love how Sarah brings Andrea out so that his blindness isn't obvious. That is sweet.

[@rizzo170980]

It is a wonderful song. But it was not written by Andrew Lloyd Webber for Sarah Brightman. Con te partiro (Time to say goodbye) was composed by Francesco Sartori for Andrea Bocelli. He sung the song 1995 at the Sanremo festival and published it on his Album 'Bocelli' 1996. After this in 1997 they made the bilingual version 'time to say goodbye' with Sarah Brightman

My mom would play this video for my niece when she was a toddler. Sometimes my mom would do it just for fun. My niece would be watching tv or playing with toys or at the table eating and as soon as she heard the music she would stop and come over to the computer to watch the video and as soon as it was done she walked away to continue what she was doing. I’m kinda glad my mom did that though because she loves to sing and has a beautiful voice😊
