Many of Charice’s fans have seen her perform on Oprah and other TV shows but nothing is quite as exquisite as her performances on David Foster’s new “Hit Man” DVD. At sixteen, she performs like a long-time music professional with a voice that shatters the rafters and blows you away. Power in the voice, she makes even the best in the music business stop in their tracks in open-mouth awe (and a twinge of envy too!). Listen to this track from the DVD and then add the DVD and Charice to your best of the year!
You have got to love these two together. “Because We Believe” (Ama Credi E Vai) is a darling song, has a wonderful hook and speaks to everyone’s heart. With Bocelli’s voice and David as pianist, you are taken to another place…a wonderful nightcap and the fireworks are a bonus.

Last evening here on the EC, Andrea Bocelli’s new album Vivere (from Tuscany) was programmed on PBS and I missed the first half and was so disappointed but just learned it is airing in other places and you do not want to miss it if you like classical music and these other lovely voices. What I did get to see was fantastic. I have all of his albums and they are all wonderful. Here is the description of Vivere:
Product Description For the first time during his historic career the world’s best selling tenor Andrea Bocelli will be releasing a collection of his greatest hits. The CD will feature selections from the Bocelli repertoire and include “Time To Say Goodbye” in duet with Sarah Brightman from the 4 time platinum selling Romanza CD, “The Prayer” in duet with Celine Dion from the 2 time platinum selling Sogno CD, plus Bocelli favorites “Because We Believe” from his most recent platinum recording Amore, “Melodramma” from Cieli Di Toscana and more. The release will also feature 4 new exclusive recordings: A duet with one of the world’s most popular pianists Lang Lang and new David Foster compositions.
You could support PBS with a donation and receive the DVD and CD or it is available at Amazon. I am purchasing it today as a must-have especially for the holiday fellowships.
Amazon Special Edition DVD-CD There is a short viewing video available as well. The CD only version has mp3 downloads if you just want certain selections. This album would also make a great Christmas present.
Please note that Warner Brothers Records/Reprise/ have removed their official artist videos from YouTube due to their contract dispute. If you find a link here it was prior to that removal.
