Listen to this magical duet between pop superstar Jennifer Lopez and opera icon Andrea Bocelli, as featured on Dancing With the Stars. Together, they sang the album’s first hit, “Quizas, Quizás, Quizás.”
This is the Spanish cover of “Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps,” a song made famous by Doris Day and Rock Hudson and included in the film Strictly Ballroom.
Andrea, dressed nicely in a black suit, stands alone in front of an orchestra before the concert starts. The dramatic effect of the smoke around his legs is heightened.
The audience applauds his singing ability and the tune he chooses as he starts. Even though it’s sung in Spanish, everyone knows the song.
Jennifer then joins him to sing the rest of the song. She looks stunning in a figure-flattering black lace dress.
Even though this is quite different from the music she often does, her voice is stunning. Jennifer is of Puerto Rican heritage, yet her music seldom has any Spanish lyrics.
It’s surprising she doesn’t do it more frequently, given how effectively she does it. With a bright grin on her face.
she walks up to Andrea and places her hand on his heart. As they continue to sing, Andrea extends a welcoming grin and puts an arm around her.
It must be frightening for Jennifer, or any other famous singer, to perform beside a great tenor. But she takes it in stride, and her voice blended with his is beautiful.
You’d never guess that she’s really a pop artist who, until now, has only sang slower ballads. Two of the dancers from the company join the duet as it continues.
Their moves capture the essence of the music well. Many of the famous contestants do a fantastic job at picking up the dances.
But I imagine it’s good for the pros to periodically get to show off their abilities once in a while. It’s a stunning performance. T
hat adds to the emotional intensity of the duet between Andrea and Jennifer. When the show is over, the audience goes crazy because they adore both couples equally.
