The Prayer (Quest for Camelot/A. Bocelli - C. Dion)
This lovely song actually has some significance for me, but there are many wonderful versions of this song. I first heard it in the movie Quest for Camelot itself. Later on heard it at a wedding. Then heard many other versions such as that sung by Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, and other famous artists. Here is our rendition of it. I'm the pianist in this recording, and, well, also the male vocalist. This was part of a set we were running, so this isn't a live performance but rather a runthrough where we would later go back and fine-tune things. This is sort of symbolic for me in that it will likely be the last upload in which you will hear my male singing voice as from now on I will be singing with my female voice almost entirely. I plan to cover this song someday and sing the female line. This is hence why this song has some meaning for me. Also, please excuse us, none of us know Italian. xD
Lyrics:
I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go.
And help us to be wise in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer, when we lose our way
Lead us to the place, guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe
La luce che tu hai
I pray we'll find your light
nel cuore restera
and hold it in our hearts.
a ricordarci che
When stars go out each night,
eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
quanta fede c'e
when shadows fill our day
How much faith there's
Let this be our prayer
in my prayer
when shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternita
We dream a world without violence
a world of justice and faith.
Everyone gives the hand to his neighbours
Symbol of peace, of fraternity
La forza che ci da
We ask that life be kind
e il desiderio che
and watch us from above
ognuno trovi amor
We hope each soul will find
intorno e dentro se
another soul to love
The force his gives us
We ask that life be kind
is wish that
and watch us from above
everyone finds love
We hope each soul will find
around and inside
another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer, just like every child
Need to find a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Need to find a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
hai acceso in noi,
sento che ci salvera

Great piano work! Very opera like voice.
It's also one of my favourite songs!
Actually all of the songs in a quest for camelot are beautiful. (looking through your eyes, i stand alone are the two i prefer the most, so if you wanna work with me once ;) ... )
I like that you used the different languages. It could use a better recording quality so it all stands out better. I know how difficult that is to achieve though. I've always had the luck and luxury that there were people helping me with it, mixing it professionally.
There is one small part where the vocal sound a little bit off, but the ending makes up for that as thats perfect.
