“I have always felt an excellent rapport ever since my very first conce...” — Andrea Bocelli Quote

“I have always felt an excellent rapport ever since my very first concert in Britain at Hampton Court. I have always felt understood. The British understand opera very well.”

“I have always loved music and singing, and I am open to listen to any type of music. Regardless of my mood, my heart is always set racing when I listen to opera. When I decide which music I want to hear, my choice is almost invariably an opera recording.”

“A voice is very intimate. It's something of your own. So there's always this fear, because you feel naked. There's a fear of not reaching up to expectations. As you become more famous, people come and expect to hear something extraordinary, so you don't want to disappoint them. I feel this sense of responsibility.”

“I always wanted to work on films, and when I was starting in television in this country, in Great Britain, there really wasn't any film to be made.”

“The strategy we must follow is to defend the special relationship between Great Britain and Europe and, more specifically, between Europe and France.”

“When the sun shines in Britain there's no finer place on Earth.”
