Seriously, this singing couple is a match made in heaven! Something just really sounds heavenly when Andrea Bocelli and Helene Fischer come together to collaborate on a duet of “When I Fall In Love.” Imagine this, a lovely opening trumpet solo sets the mood for a romantic song, after which Bocelli’s smooth, deep voice takes you and wraps you in the warmth of the 50’s pop classic. Fischer then takes the helm in leading vocal front and kept the love train rolling with her emotional vocal performance. Together they create nothing short of a symphony of passion that feels like stepping into a dream.
Bocelli might already be a well-established world class singer, but Fischer may be a revelation to the English speaking audiences. She sure is a hidden gem that boasts immense talent. From a solo point, the German star did really well tackling that Bocelli duet and their voices together were simply divine.
