Default Just seen Il Divo on TV

I have just watched Il Divo on TV here in the UK - OOOOHHHH my goodness they are wonderful. They sang "Time to say goodbye", and I have gone quite weak at the knees !!!! Have you heard of them - if not research them - I KNOW you will like them. Formed by Simon Cowell a few years ago they are classical crossover group. I MUST try and get to see them live - one day !!! They have just released a new album called " Wicked Game" I cannot recommend it enough !!

Yes, they do make you feel weak in the knees...I absolutely love these guys. Wait till you hear them sing "Ave Maria"...the hair will stand up on your arms....I listen to the Christmas album all year.

These guys are wonderful. When they sang the "Ave Maria". it gave me goose bumps as we used to call it. Hope you have a chance to catch one of the you tube sessions. I have to watch a number of them.

They are a wonderful group. I bought one of their CDs for my mom a few years ago and she was in love... Me too.

I have all their albums and I chose "Mama" to be played at my Mum's funeral last year - ( with Sarah McMachlan - In the arms of the Angels) - Mama ALWAYS brings me to tears.

Someone emailed a link of them performing "Amazing Grace" to me. This was the first time I had heard them. After listening to the performance, I shared it with all that would listen. They are amazing.

Not only are they yummy, they can sing, too.
I have a few of their albums. Love "Momma" also.
