[clock ticking] PASQUALE: Il tempo, or the time, is the most precious thing that we possess.
Music is a wonderful way to transport you to important moments in your life.
A song can remind us of a person, a memory, a joyful event and also the sad times of our lives.
Join me as I take you on a musical journey, sharing songs that have played an important role in my personal life and musical career.
With these songs I reflect upon my Italian and Neapolitan roots, my journey into the United States, and most of all, love.
Or as we say in Italian: "That's Amore."

And it's not your money, it's not your car, it's not your house.
It's your time!

I remember arriving there and not speaking one word in English.
What happened to me is that I start to understand that in order to be successful I had to learn the language, so I say the best way to learn the language is to sit down and to go to work with people who speak the language.
So, I decide to go to work in a coffee shop, but soon I figure out that people that were working there were not speaking English, but they were speaking in Spanish.
So, what happened to me is that instead of learning English, I end up learning Spanish... [laughter] ...and getting familiar to all these beautiful Spanish melodies.
I like to sing one for you that is one of my favorite.

Every time I sing "Volare," I come back home.
But since I moved to the United States, I get familiar with so many wonderful melodies.
This next one is a Broadway song that touches my heart.
It's called "This Is the Moment."

His name is Mr. Tony Bennett.
And as soon as I sit down with him, I was asking him which of his favorite songs I should sing.
And he gave me a title, and since then I really fell in love with this composition.
It is called "How Do You Keep the Music Playing?"
Enjoy.
