Il Divo is formed by singers David Miller, Sébastien Izambard, Urs Bühler, and Carlos Marín.

The idea behind this quartet's creation came to Simon Cowell after listening to Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman's rendition of "Con Te Partirò." He realized he loved lyrical voices but not opera, so he decided to form a multinational quartet (France, Switzerland, Spain, and United States) that sounded like The Three Tenors but sang pop songs and looked like handsome Armani models.

With this idea, Cowell commenced a worldwide search for young singers who were willing to embark on the Il Divo project. His search lasted two years, from 2001 until December 2003, when the fourth member of Il Divo, American tenor David Miller, was signed. The well-established formation of Il Divo comprises a renowned Spanish opera and zarzuela baritone, Carlos Marín, a French pop singer, Sébastien Izambard, and two classically trained tenors, Swiss Urs Bühler and American David Miller. Recording of their first album started in the first half of 2004 in Sweden.

The group's debut album, the self-named Il Divo, contains renditions of Frank Sinatra's hit "My Way (A Mi Manera)," Toni Braxton's hit "Unbreak My Heart (Regresa a Mi)," an adaptation of Ennio Morricone's soundtrack titled "Gabriel's Oboe" from the movie La Misión titled "Nella Fantasia" and several songs sung in Spanish, English, Italian, and Portuguese ("Volta Pra Mim"), including 1994's San Remo Festival winner "Passerà."

Il Divo hit the #1 slot on both Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com after a breakout career-defining appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show on April 5, 2005, where the quartet performed its interpretation of "Unbreak My Heart."

In the United Kingdom, the Il Divo album topped Robbie Williams as number 1 in the UK charts (allegedly Williams said to them during the Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason film premiere, "Oi, you're the bastards that knocked me off!"). This multiplatinum-selling CD became number one in the charts in a total of 13 countries around the world, and achieved top 5 placing in 25 countries.

Il Divo's second album, Ancora, was recorded in both Sweden and London with world-renowned recording giants Per Magnusson and David Kreuger and producer Steve Mac, who was also the producer of their first album. Released on November 7, 2005 in the UK, it hit number one both in the UK and Australia within one week. Ancora was released in the US on January 24, 2006. It entered the Billboard albums chart at number 1, selling more than 150,000 copies during its first week of sales.

Highlights on Ancora include "Isabel," "I Believe In You," a duet with Céline Dion, and Il Divo's cover of Eric Carmen's "All By Myself (Solo Otra Vez)." Two of the tracks on this CD, "O Holy Night" and "Ave Maria," appear on the 2005 US-only release, Christmas Collection.

Il Divo was the perfomer of the 2006 FIFA World Cup official song "A Time of Our Lives."

Il Divo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

C'est tellement simple, l'amour
Tellement possible, l'amour
A qui l'entend, regarde autour
A qui le veut vraiment

C'est tellement rien, d'y croire
Mais tellement tout, pourtant

Qu'il vaut la peine
de le vouloir, de le chercher
Tout le temps

Ce sera nous, dès demain
Ce sera nous, le chemin
Pour que l'amour
Qu'on saura se donner
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

C'est tellement court, une vie
Tellement fragile, aussi
Que de courir, après le temps
Ne laisse plus rien, à vivre

Ce sera nous, dès demain
Ce sera nous, le chemin

Pour que l'amour
Qu'on saura se donner
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

Ce sera nous, dès ce soir
A nous de le vouloir

Faire que l'amour
Qu'on aura partagé
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

C'est tellement fort
C'est tellement tout

L'amour

Puisqu'on attend
De vies en vie

Depuis la nuit
Des temps

Ce sera nous, ce sera nous, ce sera nous
Pour que l'amour
Qu'on saura se donner
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

Ce sera nous, dès ce soir
A nous de le vouloir
Faire que l'amour
Qu'on aura partagé
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

Oh, l'envie d'aimer (Nous donne l'envie d'aimer)
L'envie d'aimer (l'envie d'aimer)
Pour que l'amour

Qu'on saura se donner
Nous donne l'envie d'aimer

Aimer, c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer, c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer, c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer, c'est voler le temps
Aimer, c'est rester vivant
Et brûler le cœur d'un volcan
Aimer, c'est c'qu'y a de plus grand
Aimer, c'est plus fort que tout
Donner, le meilleur de nous
Aimer, et sentir son cœur
Aimer, pour avoir moins peur
Aimer, c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer, c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer, c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer, c'est voler le temps
Aimer, c'est rester vivant
Et brûler le cœur d'un volcan
Aimer, c'est c'qu'y a de plus grand
Aimer, c'est brûler ses nuits
Aimer, c'est payer le prix
Et donner un sens à sa vie
Aimer, c'est brûler ses nuits
Aimer, c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer, c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
