Bocelli's breakout in his career came in 1992 with Italian rock star Zucchero's opera singer audition for a duet. Bocelli was about to lose this gig too, but Zucchero sent Bocelli's audition tape to originally picked star Luciano Pavorotti who urged Zucchero to use Bocelli. In return, Zucchero called Pavorotti to record a song with Andrea, which instantly became a hit across Europe, and the rest, as they say, is history.
