I don't know what is wrong with me as I just don't get excited about this , she has sang it so many times , perhaps i'm just used to her but I don't see the world spinning much with this duet but perhaps I am wrong , lets see the number of viewers in time It is difficult to truly capture the moment when one is not at the actual event... Something tells me that you would need to have been there, in order to fully appreciate the performance(s).
Personally, I detect an intimacy and delicacy in this particular performance that was not meant to 'wow' the audience but to convey a pure sentiment.

My favorite photo of these shoots is the one of her walking with her Dad and Zack ..... the men in head to toe white monkey suits. Quintessentially Italian. Jackie in a stunning white dress, obviously designed and made for her, confidently gazing with a regal, knowing smile into the crowd and paparazzi. Every inch a princess.
In contrast, I love the ones even more of her and Zack "spending money" and irreverently doing cartwheels and goofing around in a sculpture garden. Quintessential flip-flop teens from Gibsonia just being American tourists having a blast.

Results of fundraiser: ( thanks to 'trancas' for bringing this to our attention)
hauteliving.com/2015/09/celebrity-fight-night-in-italy/586232/
After finding success in its first year, “Celebrity Fight Night in Italy” with Andrea Bocelli returned for its follow-up act in a big way, raising $12.5 million to benefit The Andrea Bocelli Foundation and The Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center.
Upon arrival in Florence on Thursday, September 10, guests were reated to a cocktail reception and live entertainment from the renowned chamber musicians of the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino at the new boutique of Florentine watchmaker Officine Panerai adjacent to the iconic Il Duomo Cathedral. Then, Andrea Bocelli welcomed guests to the Panerai sponsored dinner in the Accademia Gallery under the gaze of the most famous sculpture in the world, Michelangelo’s David. Award-winning Italian pianist and singer Raphael Gualazzi provided musical accompaniment for the evening.
On September 11, after a day of personal exploration in Florence, guests left for the scenic drive to the coastal resort town of Forte dei Marmi, where Andrea and Veronica Bocelli welcomed everyone into their home for an unforgettable night. Cartier presented the evening that included a beach sunset aperitif at Bagno Annetta, a gourmet dinner, and memorable entertainment. David Foster led performances by Andrea Bocelli, Reba McEntire, The Band Perry, Ronnie Dunn, Chris Tucker, Leona Lewis and Jackie Evancho.
The pinnacle of the seven day experience was the featured gala on September 13, where guests walked the red carpet in the historical Salone dei Cinquecento at the Palazzo Vecchio. Andrea Bocelli, along with the extraordinary orchestra of Maggio Musicale Fiorentino under the direction of living legend conductor Maestro Zubin Mehta, headlined the evening. Reba McEntire and Sharon Stone received the Andrea Bocelli Humanitarian Awards on stage during the evening. They were joined at the gala by Ronnie Dunn, The Band Perry, David Foster, Larry King, Leona Lewis, Jackie Evancho, Zubin Mehta, 2CELLOS, David Garrett, Jo Champa, Maria Katzarava, Carly Paoli and Raphael Gualazzi.
The following day, guests were welcomed into the Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery, where they became part of an adventure that winds through six centuries of a passionate history of producing wine. This unique winery, which proudly recognizes Antinori’s social value, was built with local materials and with great respect for the environment and the Tuscan landscape. Dinner was presented in the stunning underground aging area call Barriccaia under terracotta high vaults, and will feature a live performance by The Band Perry.
As a result of the funds raised by this second edition of Celebrity Fight Night in Italy, The Andrea Bocelli Foundation will build two more schools in remote communities in Haiti, providing education to 2,550 children. The foundation will also contribute funds to assist with food and healthcare in these impoverished neighborhoods. The five day experience was sponsored by Keep Memory Alive, PEAK6 – Best Marble, Cartier, Officine Panerai, Ermanno Scervino, Stefano Ricci, Antinori, Jeep, Nikki Beach and Ca’ del Bosco.

When you see Jackie close to Mr.Foster you see why he said something to the effect he was going home to throw stones at his kids after hearing her at first fight night > of course to get a laugh which it did , perhaps his kids didn't laugh a lot
