The Song ‘Con Te Partirò’ by Andrea Bocelli
“Hello! I am Anita, from Iceland, and this is my goosebump moment. So my grandma loved this song by Andrea Bocelli. I think in Italian it’s ‘Con Te Partirò’, and it’s a beautiful song that both of us used to listen to all the time. She recently passed away, and during her memorial service, they played this song. It was my goosebump moment because I felt so close to her! I felt like she was with me at that time, telling me that everything was going to be okay and that the most important things were everything that we went through together, all of the beautiful moments that we had, and that we should focus on the good things instead of the bad things.”
