Andrea Bocelli is my favorite singer the world over and I found out he was coming to New Orleans for the first time (just this past Feb.). I DIED!! I bought a ticket right then! They joked around at work because it was all I could talk about for a month leading up to it😄I had to change into my gown at work (in a kitchen mind you) and rush out to make the concert. Y'all. I could only afford the nosebleeds but there was a problem with my seat....they upgraded me from a $130 seat to a $1200 seat!!!! I was 30 feet away from him🤩 It was among one of THE BEST experiences of my life. Thank you so much for sharing this reaction with us. It was beautiful to see you experience the emotion he invokes. It was written FOR his voice specifically because it is that much of a powerhouse.
It is a shame that Andrea can't see what his Angelic vocals do to people, just hearing the applause doesn't do justice. I'm not into opera, but I could listen to Andrea sing no matter what language. I love his duets with Katherine McPherson and Ed Sheridan.
Andrea is married with his own children. Sarah was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber who wrote the Phantom of the Opera which was a huge theater production hit in the 1980s and 90s, and it’s Sarah who plays Christine in the original production and who actually sings many of the most famous songs from the album. As for whether they were dating here, no. I understand why you may ask, as she’s often seen touching Andrea a bit intimately here. She’s doing two things: keeping him calm as this was early in his career, and actually helping him stay oriented to the microphone. If he swayed too far the mic would not pick up his voice.
Here is my take on the physical touch from Sarah, both Sarah and Andrea are opera singers.Opera tells a story through song. This is one of two lovers saying goodbye. Thus she is simply acting out the felling of the song.
We were fortunate enought to see The Phantom of the Opera at lest three times. the first was in Los Angeles with Sarah Brightman and Michale Crawford. It was an amazing performance and experience. When we went one of the other times the Phantom was protraid by Robert Guillaume (Benson of theTV show by the same name). He exceeded our expectations.
Oh man….this song gives me goosebumps every time. I adore Andrea Bocelli. So does my husband. We love him so much we bought his cd, and we are not opera lovers.
I cry everytime!!! If you played that in the forest, all the animals would come together! Just like the humans do at the Opera when they hear this song, these two singing, & that orchestra!!! Tears from Heaven !!!! No they are good friends, he's married.
Speaking of Sarah Brightman, I'd love to see you react to the songs "The Phantom of the Opera" and "The Point of No Return" by her and Michael Crawford. Crawford's voice is fantastic! Hell, check out the whole original London soundtrack.
I COMPLETELY AGREE!! I first got it on a cassette tape! LOLLOLLOL! I've got a Blu-ray, & went to see it at the theater for my birthday one year! It's phenomenal! I've been begging Jamel to check out Il Divo, starting with the live performance of Nights in White Satin, since virtually EVERYONE knows the song, because I was introduced to them by my incredible late Mom. And also because we tragically lost Carlos Marin. Just over a year ago he suddenly died from the Delta variant of COVID although vaccinated. My daughter and I saw them in September, and Steven LaBrie has graciously stepped in to sing Carlos's part. It was gorgeous, but clearly missing Carlos's gorgeous baritone voice. I know if he enjoyed Sarah and Andrea that he'll enjoy Il Divo as well!
Saw Andrea singing this with another exceptional lady in September last year,when they carried on singing whilst walking away from the microphone and still sounded fantastic,now THAT is out of this world and spine tingling up there beyond anything else
Heaven on Earth. Transcends all genres. Anyone has to have a heart of stone. Not to enjoy these 2 beautiful singers. One of the most beautiful performances ever.
Any music Jamal reacts to is good to watch, because of Jamal's reactions. I'd say he's so in love with music that you always get a deeper connection with the music. Jamal has so many qualities on display whenever he's reacting and when he pauses, he shares of his knowledge and experience with music.
Singers at that level in the classical music genre are a very close knit group. Bocelli is blind, so he can't see her, but if she was leaning on me like that I'd be forgetting the words. Sarah's been one of my favorite female singers since I first heard her. She can sing most anything and go from being very formal like she is here to being very sultry and sexy.
Sometimes I wonder what it might be like to be such a supremely talented human being. I know one would still have to be very dedicated to developing their art, but it must be incredible.
Timeless beauty! That’s the former Mrs Andrew Lloyd Webber up there! He wrote Phantom of the Opera for her! J- Andrea is blind so Sarah was helping him off the stage.
Before Sarah became Mrs Andrew loyd Webber and was in his first production of the phantom of the opera she was in Hot Gossip who were a British dance troupe who made television appearances and in 1978 backed Sarah Brightman on her single "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper".
She is good, But you should check out , The Phantom of the Opera, with Sierra Borgess and John Owen Jones. Singing Phantom of the Opera. Your in for a treat.
Get the kleenex, I'm breathless. Sarah was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber who produced Phantom of the Opera which is where this beautiful song came from. Her voice is heavenly and her and Ndtra are loved worldwide. ANDREA is coming to Los Angeles.
No, they never dated. Andrea is blind & needs some help getting on & off stage and Sarah was previously married to Andrew Lloyd Webber, who put Sarah in a lot of theater, so she can get very dramatic on stage. I saw Andrea in concert in Atlanta in 2000. His father had just recently died, but he said he knew his father would want him to still do the concert, so he did. It was an emotional concert and Andrea is so awesome live. I fell in love with Andrea's music when I heard this song & had to head out to the local music store to get his CD.
There is no evidence that Sarah and Andrea have ever been romantically involved. They have performed together many times and I would think that they are probably very good freinds. That and the fact that Andrea is blind so she was probably trying to help anchor him so that he knew he was in the right place without making it obvious.
About 20 years ago my wife and I had the amazing experience of attending a concert where Sarah and Andrea were the star perfomers. This was the last song they performed that night. They had a five minute standing ovation. We feel lucky to have been there and will never forget.
There's something about this song that makes me cry.. every time. I'm a 325 pound ex-football player/metalhead. I don't understand why I have this reaction every time, but I love it. Very few songs can make me feel in such a way.
I feel the exact same way …… Now if my grandmother were still alive , she would say, that God took away his sight, but gave him Something back that is so profoundly Beautiful !!!!!
Music is literally an international language. Just a pure melody can ask, answer, shout etc. It can hit almost all the existing emotions. If you hear those emotions in the melody itself, than congrats here - you do understand music language, which is usually a very first step in learning to talk that language by the way)
So beautiful it makes me cry. One of my most favorites. At one point in my life I had reason to be contacted by Bocelli's PR team. They gave me a copy of the CD he had just released as a gift because I was promoting a sports figure that was using his music. They just wanted to show their appreciation. Great people.
I am not normally a big opera lover. But I love this song & the amazing talent of Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman. She was married for a time to composer Andrew Lloyd Webber & was the lead in his Broadway musical "Phantom Of The Opera".
Dude...I honestly can't believe you reacted to this. The original was both my grandmothers and my grandfathers funeral song, and whenever I hear it I almost tear up 😢
Your reaction is universal! I can’t watch this without shedding happy tears! You are stronger than me sir…Props on your composure! God wants us to inspire good will and joy ti everyone we meet…and those to have inspired millions of people just like me and you!
Bro never thought I’d see someone enjoy this marvel as much as I but here we are. Real musicians know the feeling it gives and I see it in your expressions and that’s awesome! Real brother from another mother.
I took my father 4 years ago to see Andrea in concert.. while Sarah Brightman was not there, it was freaking outstanding.. I love this song. It speaks to me. As a metal head rocker chick, its not my usual genre.. but who cares.. outstanding music is outstanding music. My father has since passed.. but I am grateful for being able to take him to a magical performance that he thoroughly enjoyed with me by his side. Never discount musical ability in any genre, and the possible once in a lifetime experience with your loved ones. Thank you, Jamel for reacting to my favorite of all time performances.. it warms my heart along with the person I see you to be.. Much love always.. xo
Dude, I grew up listening to Sarah (due to I had no choice, you listen to what mom wants I. The car) eventually I grew to love her. She can belt our opera, yet she still maintains a light beautiful tone. She's a badass. Props to him to. Check out the original phantom of the opera soundtrack, Michal Christensen and Sarah brightman. Point of no return. Breaks me everytime
If you loved this performance check out "Andrea Bocelli Celine Dion The Prayer" very meaningful song . Andrea is now performing with son Matteo (25) and daughter Virginia (11) watch Andrea Bocelli, Matteo Bocelli and Virginia Bocelli The Greatest Gift. It is just beautiful.
I think it is the music! It is also the knowledge of two very professional singers, that they are taking part and largely shaping the success of a huge concert! I once took over an Operetta part in 3 days and the second leading man could not stand me and was intensely jealous of my success, but behind- and on stage, he was supportive, and funny, and nobody ever guessed. Audience or ensemble! And that was in an amateur comp. Classes below what we just saw here! Putting yourself behind the performance and letting the Music rule you, carry you and serving the music with your all, that’s what it is all about! I think ;-) I mean, watch the first concert of the three tenors! Three men whom back then nobody could imagine EVER performing together. Competition, dislike, jealousies… Watch them perform the music and see the fun they have performing it! 😍
You are not alone. It was #1 on the world chart for 6 months when I checked midstream, and it may have gone on longer. I was so impressed that I printed out the lyrics really big, and would listen to the cassette in my car singing along, probably making people think I was weird, which would probably be a correct assessment. Caveat. The Italian is very hard to wade through. I then re-wrote it, phonetically which helped me to finally get it. BTW, they are not saying good bye to one another, they are, together, saying goodbye to the marketplace of souls. See y'all. Weeze headin' out now! You should learn it. It's in you already. The first paragraph is the hardest, and goes: "Quando sono solo Sogno all'orizzonte E mancan le parole Si lo so che non c'è luce In una stanza quando manca il sole Se non ci sei tu con me, con me" That part has to be rewritten by sound, as it is just too convoluted otherwise. The rest is pretty easy. Su le finestre Mostra a tutti il mio cuore Che hai accesso Chiudi dentro me La luce che Hai incontrato per strada Con te partirò Paesi che non ho mai Veduto e vissuto con te Adesso si li vivrò Con te partirò Su navi per mari Che, io lo so No, no, non esistono più Con te io li rivivrò." THen it sorta repeats mostly. I can just see you walking down the strada, humming or singing it, and people joining in. While at it....Cat Stevens' "O Caritas" is a good one for learning some Latin. Great song and show!
Literal, non-poetic, translation: "When I'm alone Dream on the horizon And words are missing Yes, I know there is no light In a room when the sun is missing If you're not with me, with me Up the windows Show everyone my heart That you have access Close inside me The light that You met on the street With you I will leave Countries I never have Seen and lived with you Now I will live them With you I will leave On ships for seas That, I know No, no, they no longer exist With you I will relive them When you're away Dream on the horizon And words are missing And I know you're with me, with me You my moon you are here with me My sun you are here with me With me, with me, with me With you I will leave Countries I never have Seen and lived with you Now yes I will live them With you I will leave On ships for seas That, I know No, no, they no longer exist With you I will relive them With you I will leave On ships for seas That, I know No, no, they no longer exist With you I will relive them With you I will leave Me with you"
Absolutely! I still remember them bringing the Oscar attendees to silence during their performance. And follow it by listening to Marcelito Pomoy sing it...which is unbelievable!
I don’t believe they ever dated. This magical song, amazing! The song is not about a couple breaking up. It’s about a couple who are traveling together to different places; & leaving to venture onto another destination 💕💕
Andrea Bocelli is my favorite singer the world over and I found out he was coming to New Orleans for the first time (just this past Feb.). I DIED!! I bought a ticket right then! They joked around at work because it was all I could talk about for a month leading up to it😄I had to change into my gown at work (in a kitchen mind you) and rush out to make the concert. Y'all.

Worth looking up his youtube channel. He has some really lovely songs with his kids, who are also very skilled!
Here is my take on the physical touch from Sarah, both Sarah and Andrea are opera singers.Opera tells a story through song. This is one of two lovers saying goodbye. Thus she is simply acting out the felling of the song.
Tag on her helping him stay oriented… he is blind.
We were fortunate enought to see The Phantom of the Opera at lest three times. the first was in Los Angeles with Sarah Brightman and Michale Crawford. It was an amazing performance and experience. When we went one of the other times the Phantom was protraid by Robert Guillaume (Benson of theTV show by the same name). He exceeded our expectations.
I’m an old rocker/ r & b guy, but the shear talent on that stage….. outstanding . Thanks for the reaction
Oh man….this song gives me goosebumps every time. I adore Andrea Bocelli. So does my husband. We love him so much we bought his cd, and we are not opera lovers.
This is a perfect song. Immediately brings tears to my eyes.
I cry everytime!!! If you played that in the forest, all the animals would come together! Just like the humans do at the Opera when they hear this song, these two singing, & that orchestra!!!
Tears from Heaven !!!!
No they are good friends, he's married.
My god, where did you dig this up? I listened to this so so many times. Haven’t heard it in years. Gorgeous. ❤️
another beautiful song from Sarah Brightman is Deliver Me. She proves why she's the best Phantom's Angel of Music
Andrea Bocelli did a concert in Columbus Ohio in December. I saw his concert and it was FANTASTIC! SENSATIONAL!
One of my favorite songs of all time ... glad to see it moved you! ❤️
The most beautiful song ever...
Speaking of Sarah Brightman, I'd love to see you react to the songs "The Phantom of the Opera" and "The Point of No Return" by her and Michael Crawford. Crawford's voice is fantastic! Hell, check out the whole original London soundtrack.
He would love it!!
I COMPLETELY AGREE!! I first got it on a cassette tape! LOLLOLLOL! I've got a Blu-ray, & went to see it at the theater for my birthday one year! It's phenomenal!

Saw Andrea singing this with another exceptional lady in September last year,when they carried on singing whilst walking away from the microphone and still sounded fantastic,now THAT is out of this world and spine tingling up there beyond anything else
I absolutely LOVE this song!! Goosebumps everytime!!
The way she looked at him was so sweet. I don't know much about this type of music, but this was so beautiful!
Andrea is blind so Sarah is guiding him on the stage, his story is quite inspiring.
Goosebumps 💕!
Heaven on Earth. Transcends all genres. Anyone has to have a heart of stone. Not to enjoy these 2 beautiful singers. One of the most beautiful performances ever.
♥♥♥♥ chills and groosebumps !!!! Never get tired of hearing this
One of the best songs, ever!
Some Music touches your Soul irrespective of your preferences.
Any music Jamal reacts to is good to watch, because of Jamal's reactions.
I'd say he's so in love with music that you always get a deeper connection with the music.
Jamal has so many qualities on display whenever he's reacting and when he pauses, he shares of his knowledge and experience with music.
Canto Della Terra is another great popular music song with Andrea Bocelli, Sarah Brightman singing together.
Singers at that level in the classical music genre are a very close knit group. Bocelli is blind, so he can't see her, but if she was leaning on me like that I'd be forgetting the words. Sarah's been one of my favorite female singers since I first heard her. She can sing most anything and go from being very formal like she is here to being very sultry and sexy.
My mother wanted this played at her funeral. She was a big Bochelli fan.
I wouldn't listen to this type of music normally, but this is incredible.
Beautiful.
I love your commitment to expanding your own horizons and sharing with the rest of us.
Saw him in concert, so worth it. AND he sang this song at the end, Sarah wasn't there with him but it was still magnificent.
I cried Instantly ! I think the Heaven sounds exactly like this !
Sometimes I wonder what it might be like to be such a supremely talented human being. I know one would still have to be very dedicated to developing their art, but it must be incredible.
I saw him live in ft. lauderdale ... was incredible
Timeless beauty! That’s the former Mrs Andrew Lloyd Webber up there! He wrote Phantom of the Opera for her!
J- Andrea is blind so Sarah was helping him off the stage.
It's part of the performance!
It’s 9.07am in 🇬🇧 time to stop scrolling my TH-cam timeline this is GOLD
Before Sarah became Mrs Andrew loyd Webber and was in his first production of the phantom of the opera she was in Hot Gossip who were a British dance troupe who made television appearances and in 1978 backed Sarah Brightman on her single "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper".
Zeppelin brought me here. This music looms large.
Nice to see you back doing normal songs and stuff. Love this!
ANDREA is my favorite all-time opera singer
And he’s never starred in an opera production. He’s blind, so it would be tough….
Don't know of Sarah, but have loved Andrea's voice since I first heard it. Elvis is always my favorite though and always will be
Andrea is so effortless, what a voice of an angel. Try Andrea Bocelli and Martha Sanchez Vivo Por Ella
I remember when she gave her heart to a starship trooper?and it wasn't ALW
Thanks!
Andrea Bocelli does a song with Ed Sheeran, you need to listen to called Perfect!
Sara is a diva, she was rubbing up on him to throw himself off his game. 😂😂😂
Loved it
I'm pretty sure he was married at the time of this concert...that whole concert was great!
The one and only Sarah Brightman. She was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber the amazing composer.
She is good, But you should check out , The Phantom of the Opera, with Sierra Borgess and John Owen Jones. Singing Phantom of the Opera. Your in for a treat.
I just wanna be friends with Jamel aka Jamal, he’s the man
Get the kleenex, I'm breathless. Sarah was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber who produced Phantom of the Opera which is where this beautiful song came from. Her voice is heavenly and her and Ndtra are loved worldwide. ANDREA is coming to Los Angeles.

This is what the doomsayer hears to when turning demons into confetti
You had me at goodbye
It’ll be Time To Say Goodbye to the Niners tomorrow. Go Cowboys!
They were not dating she was close to andre for one simple reason he's BLIND FROM BIRTH.
I've not seem this comment but Andrea Bocelli is blind. Hence her reactions
There is no evidence that Sarah and Andrea have ever been romantically involved. They have performed together many times and I would think that they are probably very good freinds. That and the fact that Andrea is blind so she was probably trying to help anchor him so that he knew he was in the right place without making it obvious.
Sarah and Andrea are good friends, not lovers. She is always very warm toward her fellow singers.
About 20 years ago my wife and I had the amazing experience of attending a concert where Sarah and Andrea were the star perfomers. This was the last song they performed that night. They had a five minute standing ovation. We feel lucky to have been there and will never forget.

Aww, that's lovely!!
She's a very lovey touchy person....she's such a sweetie
I am not normally a big opera lover. But I love this song & the amazing talent of Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman. She was married for a time to composer Andrew Lloyd Webber & was the lead in his Broadway musical "Phantom Of The Opera".
She was married to Andrew Lloyd Webber?? 🤢
I'm not either, but some of it is good, this included. Andrea Bocelli is amazing. Not to mention being some serious eye candy. 😉
@@OP-1000 he wrote Phantom for her!
Not to be technical, but this isn't Opera. try watching Carmen, Eugene Onegin, or La Boheme...this is more of an aria duet.
@@OP-1000 Yes and she is the one specifically that he wrote the part in Phantom for.
Dude...I honestly can't believe you reacted to this. The original was both my grandmothers and my grandfathers funeral song, and whenever I hear it I almost tear up 😢
It was played at my dad's funeral. Such a wonderful beautiful song.
@@CEP73 Was he Italian? Both of my parents are.
More Sarah Brightman! She is a jewel! ❤️
You should check out Jesus Crist Superstar...Jesus Crist Superstar
The original recording is the best imo. Ian Gillan, lead singer of Deep Purple, plays Jesus.
He recently has been singing with his son and daughter which is amazing..
Yes, it's so awesome!!
Sarah's voice is not of this world. How can that come from within her.
Thank you for Andrea Bocelli. He is amazing. Brightman is a jewel.
Andrea and Sarah are perfect together in this, you can see how close their friendship is. Such a beautiful song...
When I first heard Andrea sing this song 20+ years ago, all I could think is this must be how angels sound in heaven.
Bocelli has the voice of an angel. I saw him in concert. Could not believe that sound was coming out of a human being.
Where did you see him? I saw him in Vienna in 99', and you are right.
His voice is so awesome recorded but it's even more awesome when heard live!!! I'm seeing him again this summer and I am so excited for it
Apparently Celine Dion said, "If God could sing, he would sound like Andrea Bocelli."
@@cellina.starfire his voice is literally the same in studio recording and live 😭
Me too!
Had this stunning beautiful song at my dad's funeral. Gives me such comfort when I hear it.
One of the most touching performances I've seen! Beautiful duet. They KILL IT!
Your reaction is universal! I can’t watch this without shedding happy tears! You are stronger than me sir…Props on your composure! God wants us to inspire good will and joy ti everyone we meet…and those to have inspired millions of people just like me and you!
I love this one. I literally get chills down my spine when she gets with it. And then he takes off.
Y'all be safe
This is music. You don't know what they're saying but it makes you feel something undeniably.
I remember seeing her live and hearing her live is a real treat. Thanks for the reaction. Takes me back to a real nice time with a friend at a concert
Bro never thought I’d see someone enjoy this marvel as much as I but here we are. Real musicians know the feeling it gives and I see it in your expressions and that’s awesome! Real brother from another mother.
Friends, but respect and love within colleagues and industry. Also, assisting with movement due to his being blind.
I took my father 4 years ago to see Andrea in concert.. while Sarah Brightman was not there, it was freaking outstanding.. I love this song. It speaks to me.

Andrea Bocelli's voice is for anyone and everyone!!
Their duet is so beautiful!! I've loved it for many years. I'm a bigger fan of Andrea Bocelli than Sarah Brightman, but it's a classic. 😘😍
Dude, I grew up listening to Sarah (due to I had no choice, you listen to what mom wants I. The car) eventually I grew to love her. She can belt our opera, yet she still maintains a light beautiful tone. She's a badass. Props to him to. Check out the original phantom of the opera soundtrack, Michal Christensen and Sarah brightman. Point of no return. Breaks me everytime

If you loved this performance check out "Andrea Bocelli Celine Dion The Prayer" very meaningful song . Andrea is now performing with son Matteo (25) and daughter Virginia (11) watch Andrea Bocelli, Matteo Bocelli and Virginia Bocelli The Greatest Gift. It is just beautiful.
Sarah Brightman is one of the most enchanting singers on this planet, in my opinion.
A dear friend was a fan of both Brightman and Bocelli. This was played at her memorial service. Makes me think of her and smile.
They got me shedding tears and applauding in the balcony.
Her voice always gives me chills!
I think it is the music! It is also the knowledge of two very professional singers, that they are taking part and largely shaping the success of a huge concert!
I once took over an Operetta part in 3 days and the second leading man could not stand me and was intensely jealous of my success, but behind- and on stage, he was supportive, and funny, and nobody ever guessed.

You should learn it. It's in you already. The first paragraph is the hardest, and goes:
"Quando sono solo
Sogno all'orizzonte
E mancan le parole
Si lo so che non c'è luce
In una stanza quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei tu con me, con me"
That part has to be rewritten by sound, as it is just too convoluted otherwise. The rest is pretty easy.
Su le finestre
Mostra a tutti il mio cuore
Che hai accesso
Chiudi dentro me
La luce che
Hai incontrato per strada
Con te partirò
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
Con te io li rivivrò."
THen it sorta repeats mostly. I can just see you walking down the strada, humming or singing it, and people joining in. While at it....Cat Stevens' "O Caritas" is a good one for learning some Latin.
Great song and show!
Literal, non-poetic, translation:
"When I'm alone
Dream on the horizon
And words are missing
Yes, I know there is no light
In a room when the sun is missing
If you're not with me, with me
Up the windows
Show everyone my heart
That you have access
Close inside me
The light that
You met on the street
With you I will leave
Countries I never have
Seen and lived with you
Now I will live them
With you I will leave
On ships for seas
That, I know
No, no, they no longer exist
With you I will relive them
When you're away
Dream on the horizon
And words are missing
And I know you're with me, with me
You my moon you are here with me
My sun you are here with me
With me, with me, with me
With you I will leave
Countries I never have
Seen and lived with you
Now yes I will live them
With you I will leave
On ships for seas
That, I know
No, no, they no longer exist
With you I will relive them
With you I will leave
On ships for seas
That, I know
No, no, they no longer exist
With you I will relive them
With you I will leave
Me with you"
this is such a quality song, never gets old
Jamel, if you have never heard an accomplished opera singer in person, you don't understand the raw power of their voice.
They are both so good. If you haven't already, you should listen/react to The Prayer with Andrea and Celine Dion!
Absolutely! I still remember them bringing the Oscar attendees to silence during their performance. And follow it by listening to Marcelito Pomoy sing it...which is unbelievable!
I don’t believe they ever dated. This magical song, amazing! The song is not about a couple breaking up. It’s about a couple who are traveling together to different places; & leaving to venture onto another destination 💕💕
A duo that will never be bettered, bravo Sarah & Andrea.
