Andrea Bocelli has one of the best voices in the music industry.
Famous record producer David Foster described it as “the most beautiful in the world,” while Celine Dione noted:
“If God would have a singing voice, he must sound a lot like Andrea Bocelli.”
The 59-year-old Italian tenor has made a successful career for himself— and now, his 21-year-old son is following in his footsteps.
Matteo Bocelli has been described as a younger version of his father.
The two share the same handsome features and a voice that makes women weak in the knees.
As a singer himself, Matteo has recently been featured on his father’s newest album Si in the song “Fall On Me.” According to Classic FM, the song will be used in the soundtrack for the upcoming Disney movie The Nutcracker and The Four Realms.
Last month on The Ken Bruce Show, Andrea and Matteo teamed up to blow the audience away with an emotional, duet cover of Ed Sheeran’s single “Perfect Symphony.”
Andrea and Sheeran actually collaborated on the song “Perfect” featured in Sheeran’s newest album. In an interview with the UK Evening Standard, Andrea recalled:
“The situation was very peaceful because I had my two sons with me who are great fans of his.”
“They were very excited and happy to be able to listen to his voice live… My sons were in awe.”
As a fan of Ed Sheeran, singing one of Sheeran’s songs with his father was an offer Matteo couldn’t refuse.
He made sure to practice diligently, ultimately giving a performance that blew everyone away.
They perform the song in English and Italian, with Matteo taking over the English lyrics while Andrea croons the Italian words.
From the sounds of it, Matteo has toned down his classical sound, attempting to put a bit of Sheeran’s sound into the performance.
After he’s finished singing his verse, Andrea proudly taps him on the back before taking over the spotlight. Something about the way these two men perform the song is downright beautiful.
Since being uploaded last month, it’s been viewed over a million times.
The rendition is emotional and powerful, resonating with everyone who watches it:
“Does Andrea Bocelli ever sing anything bad? BEAUTIFUL! HIS SON IS GORGEOUS! He sings as beautiful as his father! Thank you for sharing!”
“Can’t get enough. Love them both! So happy Matteo is following in his father’s footsteps.”
“The only thing greater than the way these two men sound is watching them love and enjoy each other… Amazing.”
