Hey, My friend was playing me a CD the other day, and I was actually pretty impressed by it. The musician's name is Zucchero, and he sounds alot like Peter but he does alot of other stuff as well. He does Classic Rock, Blues, Middle Eastern, you name it, and it all gels fairly nicely. The album is called "All the Best" and makes a great listen. So check it out if you have the chance. See ya later community members. -Marco UMGD

That's the same thought as I have when I listen to Zucchero.

Lol me too. We've got the cd Zucchero&co, that's a very good album too. He sings with, for example, sting, pavarotti, ronan keating, sheryl crow, miles davis and many more. You should indeed check it out if you have the chance.

Thanks for pointing him out to us! I had never heard of this guy before and he has performed with Sting! Poor Sting could'nt hear himself in the performance so it wasn't up to his usual standards so I didn't post the link. They performed Sting's "Mad About You" together in Spanish. Here is a link to a video so everyone can hear what he sounds like but if you want to see if he sang with anyone else you like just google them together with "Youtube". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD-sY2NVn9c I didn't find any of him with Peter though they are mentioned together quite alot. Looks like we are not the only ones who see similarities.

Zucchero is my favourite singer. He have a lot of good songs, but the better question is: Does he have any bad song?? Zucchero and Peter have very similar voices and i hope some duet. Meanwhile there is one duo in France Band Aid band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhHmGp-sTAw

Me too I like Zucchero ! Listen at his last song called "Vedo nero", because Zucchero says "Vedo ero, Shock the monkey!" He pays homage to Peter Gabriel!!!! (he was at the concert of Arena di Verona).
