Legendary musician Michael Bolton joins with Laura Bretan for an incredible performance of ‘The Prayer.’
This powerful song was originally written by David Foster, Carole Bayer Sager, Alberto Testa and Tony Renis in 1999. It was written in both English and Italian for artists Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli to sing solo. But it was their incredible duet performance that truly propelled the song into the classic that it is today.
“So let the children remember the sun
Let them dance, let them soar
For their lives have begun
Let the children engender the rain
As the river runs through fields
Forever subsiding their pain
Prayer”
Decades after it’s release, ‘The Prayer’ is still a popular song for artists and musicians to cover. Today, one iconic voice is sharing the stage with an former America’s Got Talent contestant for this stunning duet.
Michael Bolton is a Grammy-winning artist with a slew of hits under his belt. We first met Laura Bretan when she won the sixth season of Romania’s Got Talent.
From there, she went on to place sixth in the American version of the franchise. Now, these two powerhouse vocalists are putting their own spin on this special song and it’s absolutely amazing.
Just listen as their voices combine in perfect harmony to sing these beloved lyrics. There is just something about hearing the song that always fills me with a sense of peace and understanding.
