Powerhouse vocalists Andrea Bocelli and Josh Groban come together for an incredible duet of ‘We Will Meet Once Again.’ While many people know these famous names, what you may not know is that Andrea Bocelli actually helped propel Josh’s music career. Josh Groban wrote about the experience on Facebook: “A duet almost 20 years in the making. I owe so much to an early opportunity I had, I was 17 and in high school and asked to be a stand in singer for Andrea Bocelli when he was stuck on a plane for the Grammys rehearsals (A longer story about how THAT even happened). A terrified, pimple-faced and blissfully naive kid sang his heart out that afternoon and the rest is history.”
Host Rosie O’Donnell noticed the singer and invited him to come on her show. After that, Josh quickly went on to book multiple shows and performances and released his own album. From that moment on, everything changed for the young man and now he’s a household name for his bold opera voice and talented song choices. Andrea Bocelli is a legendary vocalist and musician. So, when he approached Josh for a duet, there was not a second of hesitation. ‘We Will Meet Once Again’ is a beautiful song that both men help write. For Andrea’s album, the entire piece is sung in Italian while Josh’s album has some of the lyrics sung in English. It was truly a full-circle moment for both musicians and it is the perfect blending of two unforgettable vocals.
