In November 1996, Andrea and Sarah Brightman were invited to perform the duet Time To Say Goodbye (Con Te Partirò) at the farewell contest of the German World Light-Heavyweight boxing champion, Henry Maske. A national hero held in unrivaled esteem, he is known for his love of selecting entrance themes to his bouts. Sarah Brightman, the internationally renowned soprano and friend of Henry Maske heard Con Te Partirò in a restaurant while dining with her friends. Entranced by the singer and the song, Brightman made contact with Andrea. Andrea and Brightman re-recorded Con Te Partirò as the duet Time To Say Goodbye with members of the London Symphony Orchestra.
This live version is from Brightmans first full concert recording, «Sarah Brightman: In Concert», from Londons Royal Albert Hall with the London Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Paul Bateman. Guest artists include Andrew Lloyd Webber, Adam Clark and Andrea Bocelli. The concert was released to video in 1998.
The concert was directed by David Mallet.

Its been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Its been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But theyd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said girl you better try to have fun
No matter what you do, but hes a fool
Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
All the flowers that you planted mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But Im willing to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Русский перевод:
7 часов и пятнадцать дней,
с тех пор, как ты забрал свою любовь.
Я выхожу каждую ночь и сплю весь день,
с тех пор, с тех пор, как ты забрал свою любовь.
С тех пор, как ты ушёл, я могу делать — что захочу,
я могу видеться — с кем захочу.
Я могу обедать в модном ресторане.
Но ничто.
Я говорю, ничто не может развеять эту печаль.
Потому что ничто не сравнится,
ничто не сравнится с тобой.
Здесь так одиноко без тебя,
как птице одиноко без песни.
Ничто не может остановить падение этих одиноких слез.
Скажи мне малыш, где я ошиблась?
Я могла бы обнять любого парня, которого увидела,
но они только бы напомнили мне о тебе.
Я сходила к доктору и знаешь, что он мне сказал?
Знаешь, что он мне сказал?
Он сказал, девушка, вы лучше попробуйте получать удовольствие,
от всего что делаете, но он — дурак.
Потому что ничто не сравнится,
ничто не сравнится с тобой.
Все цветы, что ты посадил маме
на заднем дворе.
Все погибли, когда ты ушел.
Я знаю, что жить с тобой, малыш, было иногда сложно,
но я хочу попробовать еще раз.
Ничто не сравнится,
ничто не сравнится с тобой.
