I *love* andrea bocelli!! Have been listening to him for years
Listening to him got me into Sarah Brightman, I just LOVE her andrew llyod webber collection among others.

I also am starting to like the Opera Babes.. Stupid name but they are beautiful singers


I'm into Enya, or used to be.. the music really inspires me..

Usually I'm a heavy metal/hard rock chick, my favorite band is Cradle of Filth (don't ask, lol) but really I like music with a deeper meaning than singing about getting laid..

Kate,

He sings in Italian, for the record.
I assume that you know that he is blind?
(I don't think he was blind at birth but rather
that it was the result of some illness he had as a child.)

Sarah Brightman! I love her first pop album "Dive". It's a group of songs with an aquatic theme.

I also love the group Moodswings. They have a dance vibe, but are very relaxed and mellow. I put them on when I want to zone out and relax. There are few vocals, except for invited singers. I recommend the album "Moodfood".

Thomas Hampson, who is an operatic baritone singer, has several song albums out. He has a beautiful voice. (I don't care for the German song albums that he has recorded, but he has several in english & italian.)

Bocelli is an operatic tenor. You might like some of Placido Domingo's non-operatic records, of which there are quite a few.
He has a wonderful album of spanish love songs..I don't know what he is saying, but still like to listen.

I love him. He was blinded at age 11 or 12 when he was hit in the head by a soccer ball.

I also love Sarah Brightman, Aselin Debison (Canadian girl), but my fav is Josh Groben. His music inspires me and soothes my soul - he has the voice of an angel!
