Il Divo’s famous and popular songs
Il Divo is a multinational vocal group.
Formed in 2003 by producer Simon Cowell, they debuted in the United Kingdom in 2004.
Performing in the “classical crossover” style—singing pop music with classical vocal technique—they are a hugely popular group with total worldwide album sales exceeding 30 million.
Their voices, often described as “popera,” combine pop and opera to create a sound that is overwhelming yet tender, enveloping the listener.
They perform many cover songs, so you’ve likely heard some of their music somewhere.
They also tour in Japan and are known for their pro-Japanese sentiment, including visits to disaster-affected areas.

Il Divo’s classic and popular songs (11–20)
You Raise Me UpIl Divo
In Japan, during the Turin Olympics, Celtic Woman’s cover of “You Raise Me Up” became familiar to everyone because figure skater Shizuka Arakawa used it.
I think it’s a song that clearly illustrates what Il Divo refers to as classical crossover.
It’s included on the album “Always,” released in November 2008.
My Heart Will Go OnIl Divo
Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On,” which became a worldwide hit as the theme song for the film Titanic, is the best-selling single globally.
The two artists have a special connection through duets and a cover of “All by Myself.” Il Divo’s version is included as the first track on their 2012 greatest hits album, Greatest Hits.
It’s a ballad about a love that perseveres together until the very last moment—no matter how many times I listen, it moves me.
I’m also drawn to the different expression and the added depth compared to the original.
Don’t Cry for Me ArgentinaIl Divo
A signature song from the musical Evita.
It is sung in an important scene where Evita stands before the people and expresses her feelings.
The members said they initially felt hesitant to sing it because it has such a strong association with a female image, but it has truly become an Il Divo song.
It is included on the album Greatest Hits, released in November 2012.
I will always love youIl Divo
An immortal classic that you often hear in a variety of settings.
Whitney Houston’s version became a huge hit as the theme song for the film The Bodyguard.
The original was released in 1974 by country music legend Dolly Parton, and Il Divo’s version is included on their greatest hits album, Greatest Hits.
Beyond each member’s powerful vocals, the expansion of their unison—showcasing delicate resonance and rich color—is so exquisite it’s absolutely mesmerizing.
Amazing GraceIl Divo
According to member Urs, although they thought this song was a perfect fit for Il Divo and would be a piece of cake, in reality it took a long time to complete, with many rounds of recording and arranging.
It is one of the tracks included on the album Greatest Hits, released in November 2012.
HallelujahIl Divo
Hallelujah features a soothing, mellow guitar tone right from the intro.
It’s a track included on the 2008 album The Promise.
The original song was released in 1984 by Canadian poet and singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen.
Il Divo’s cover carries a clear, refreshing quality, and their gentle, conversational vocals slowly sink in and resonate.
In the home live version, you can also see Urs playing the guitar, so be sure to check that out too!

PasseraIl Divo
A song by Alejandro Harty.
Am I the only one who feels that its sweet, bittersweet melody evokes a sense of nostalgia? It’s a piece that I believe transcends language and can be felt with the heart.
It was included on the album “Greatest Hits,” released in November 2012, and it remains a deeply popular track even today.
