Song

Sarah Brightman's cover of this song first appeared on her Timeless album, featuring José Cura, and was released in 1997. It was also released as a single, with 'O mio babbino caro” as the B-side track. Often on her 2000/2001 La Luna tour, Brightman would perform this duet with Josh Groban, and this was included in the La Luna: Live in Concert DVD.[2]

Brightman and Cantonese entertainer Jacky Cheung sang "There For Me" in the city of Hong Kong on stage, at the "Hong Kong Millennium Extravaganza".

While the duet with José Cura version of this song is bilingual, the other two versions are completely in English.

Hayley Westenra and Britain's Got Talent winner Paul Potts recorded "There For Me" in Italian, as "Sei Con Me", for Potts' second album, Passione, released in 2009.
