Now, at the height of an incredible career, Bocelli recently celebrated his 50th birthday and released his 20th and most romantic album yet, "Incanto."
During a visit to The Early Show, co-anchor Harry Smith asked Bocelli about his inspiration for the new album.
"They were the songs when I was a child -- they have been the songs that I had later in my tape recorder and now in my computer," he said with a laugh. "I love them because when I sing the songs I feel a big happiness and energy, because I can sing with a full voice, in a very free way."
During his visit, Bocelli performed "Mamma" and "Funiculi Funicula."
