OMG the Passion

Their faces. Their voices. Their PASSION! It's just too much! <3








Performing Hasta el Final on Sabado Gigante

I got to say that this is my new favorite song of theirs. I really REALLY like the beginning where Gianluca's voice is deep and amazing. He is just... :) And when he looks in the camera... *faint*

Singing on Small Giants

Awww!!! Look at IL VOLO with the little kids! 
Gianluca walks in the with two girls... I am so jealous!
Do you hear the girls in the audience scream when Gianluca sings?? 

Performance on Premios Juventud 2011


I can't remember if I've posted this already (I check and didn't see it, but who knows?), but this is IL VOLO' performance in July.




Videos from New Zealand

They seem so relaxed! Their voices are awesome as usual. :)

Quick Chat in New Zealand

Their accents are adorable. :)
Aw Piero is so cute! First, he said he was 17 twice. Then, he understands his glasses. He is very cute when he says, "Lady Gaga, oh my god!" He is extremely cute when he sings, "Barbara Streisand".

I got to admit that that serious face Ignazio made totally fit Gianluca. 

GIANLUCA! Why aren't you happy? You look seriously sad. You look cute when you do that thing with your mouth, but still.
I think these boys are homesick. Good thing they're home in Italy. <3

Gianluca's Girlfriend's (Jessica Brando/Vitelli) Song

Who is Jessica? She is a singer and dancer who was born in Grosseto, Tuscany in 1994. She is 17 years old. Her birthday is December 6. Her official YouTube account is here

She has released her album and you can check it out here. It's called "Dimmi Cosa Sogni" translated into "Tell Me What You Dream" in English.

She met Gianluca when she was a contestant in the Sanremo Festival 2010. She performed Dove Non Ci Sono Ore.

This is Jessica Brando (Gianluca's girlfriend) and her song Dove Non Ci Sono Ore



IL VOLO Forever Bracelet!

My friend ordered IL VOLO bracelets online for herself and me! She custom ordered them here. I will so order my own soon! :)
The colors match perfectly with my school colors. I wish it came in purple or pink or blue, but black and red are perfectly fine.
Sorry it's backwards! I took the pics on PhotoBooth which mirrors the image! :(



This is NOT official merchandise, but I wanted to wear something to show my love for IL VOLO. IL VOLO should totally sell merchandise online (t-shirts, bracelets, necklaces etc) because I would totally buy it!

IL VOLO in Australia and Heading Home

IL VOLO is now heading back to their home country, Italy, until the start of their American tour (September 24th). They deserve some rest! They've been working hard for weeks. 


Is it just me, or does it look like they are making pouty faces (except Gianluca, of course!)? 
Gianluca's smile is so real and so beautiful here!
We all know Piero's smile is wonderful :)

Gianluca and Ignazio and their GFs



Al Rojo Vivo and Levantate Interviews

Sadly, the videos are in Espanol. These boys are so talented. They can speak Italian, Espanol, and English. Even if I can't understand a word, I love listening to their voices. ;)

Al Rojo Vivo

Haha. Piero and his car noises.

Levantate

How I wish I could speak Espanol and Italian! I wish I was IL VOLO's translator. (:
Just wondering, but why are there spoons on the wall?

Love the Glasses

Gold VIP Right Here!

I am the official owner of two Gold VIP package tickets to the Melbourne, FL IL VOLO concert October 9 (6:30 PM). I had some trouble ordering them at first... I first got the tickets for seat A-17 and A-18 (18!!! My lucky number!)... but then I tried to change something and I ended up with FOUR tickets instead of two. After much yelling between my mom and I (and near nervous breakdown on my part), we got two tickets for seats A-1 and A-2. Now, I think the first seats were better, but those tickets still weren't in the middle. The seats we have now are on the end... But it doesn't matter. What matters is that I will see them LIVE and I will MEET them! What will I wear? OMG. I am so going to kiss those boys the Italian way (you know, on the cheek! Hehe). Wow. I'm so excited. This is my only birthday present, and I am so thankful for it. I get to MEET IL VOLO!!!! AHHH!!!
I am so going to take pictures and videos, and I'll post them here. :)

I'm happy for him... yet so heartbroken :(

Gianluca has a girlfriend. Her name is Jessica Brando. She is almost as beautiful as him.

Watching the Clock

OMG. The IL VOLO ticket packages (and possibly regular tickets?) are going on sale in 34 minutes. OMG. I really want Gold, but SIlver would be cool.

Showcase in Malaysia

They performed some of their songs in Bentley Music Auditorium.
Gianluca's stage presence is getting better with each performance. :)



Il Mondo ^^^



Acapella Il Mondo ^^^

Interviews in Malaysia

The boys go over the pronunciations of their names. Also, Gianluca tells us his mom's name is Lenora. So cute.



Ignazio is on a diet??? :(
YES! There will be a Christmas album coming out in December! I am so getting that! :)
They are amazing. They are funny, cute, and oh so talented.

Interview in Indonesia

Hahaa I love Piero here. He is just minding his own business drinking his... drink. Justin Bieber is also mentioned here. ;)

IL VOLO Performing at Arena Di Verona 6/6/10

So young, so beautiful. :)

Gianluca and Charice

He is only 14 here. Isn't he cute?? His voice is amazing still! Fast forward to 0:33if you want to skip through the woman talking.

Piero Barone





IL VOLO in The Big Apple

I so wish I could've been there watching them street perform. Wow. I would've died with happiness. :)

First Time Together

Aren't they soo young? This was back in the competition in 2009!


Interview in Malaysia

They are not opera or pop. They are OPERATIC POP! Remember that!

Wow, I'm jealous!

I didn't understand a word said, but I do know that I was watching the entire video with envy. That interviewer got to kiss the cheek of Gianluca, Ignazio, and Piero! She kissed Piero's cheek twice! Goodness!

Interview with Santos

Aww! How adorable are they?? Oh the poor translator. Hehe. I just noticed how small Gianluca is! He is so cute! Gianluca is like the "baby" of the group, yet he has the most mature voice (to me).
