I spend my days in Il Volo Land

27 Comments
Remember when we were young children we spent our days dreaming of the day we could go to Disneyland… A land of magic for children… Now we are all grown up and we are still dreaming of that special day, only now its an Il Volo Concert instead of Disneyland… Back in the day, when we were dreaming of that special day when we would finally step foot in the magic kingdom, we would satisfy our craving with watching The magical world of Disney on TV… That would hold us over till our parents saved enough money to take us to Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom…
Fast forward to today, now we fill our days with Il Volo… January we saw a Special on Il Volo… Oh did they ever look wonderful … February we watched Sanremo and they took home the grand prize, they finally received the recognition they deserved, they got their Grande Amore from Italia… We also got to spend a few moments with them on the Massimo Giletti show…11062315_640670942743314_5094086935771003202_n
In March we saw them with Uncle Bruno on Porta a Porta… So many interviews, Guest spots on radio shows… Oh yes, Singing before a Soccer Game in Italy…

May was even busier than the months before promoting their Grande Amore for Europe so that when they walk onto the Eurovision stage all of Europe would know who they are…  Oh how Il Volo looked on The Red Carpet , were we proud? Oh yes we were, Armani Models for sure… They won the popular vote and were happy that the people of Europe loved them and their Grande Amore…

Now we are in June, and we are able to see more of Il Volo… We were thrilled by the charity soccer game that they participated on June 2… They do so much for Charity… They make us proud…

On June 4th Il Volo was on the Wind Music Awards 2015, They sang to the crowed arena their Grande Amore and the fans sang along with them, not only did they received their award from Carlo Conti, but they received an even greater award from their fans… A standing ovation… It just does not get better than that…

We have so many more Il Volo filled days to look forward to in the coming months and when  they are done winning the hearts of Italy and Europe, they will come back to us and we will be able to finally make our dream come true by buying that Ticket to the Concert and Meet and Greet and see our beautiful men of Il Volo live and in person right before our eyes, giving us their Grande Amore!!!  A dream come true for all Il Volo Lovers..

FORGOTTEN MEMORIES

Gina sometimes forgets that I like to post emails. Like this one.

I did my civic duties this morning lugging boxes and stocking shelves [at my local pantry] so this afternoon my back insisted on a rest.

I can not remember if we did a segment of FORGOTTEN MEMORIES.

Have people list a forgotten memory or song.


(ok Gina, you go first. ~M)


I forgot how much I loved the boys singing “Painfully Beautiful”. Just listened to several on YouTube. Wish they would do an updated version. Gina

Gina, I found a cute one to share:

Now here are two of my good memories. Real oldies that I will never, ever forget. 

This may have been the first time I heard Gianluca’s speaking voice.  Combined with what he said and how he said it I was floored.  I am floored every time I hear it still.

And this one… Watch very near the end.  Emotions take over.  How is that even possible for a 13-year-old?

How about you, Crew?  Feel free to embed your favorite video or tell us your “Forgotten Memory”.
