11/27/15 | 1m 51s | Rating: NR

Tenor Andrea Bocelli performs the tango song “Por Una Cabeza” from Scent of a Woman (1992). The song, comparing an addiction to horse racing with an attraction to women, was written in 1935 by two men central to tango in Argentina: singer and composer Carlos Gardel and lyricist Alfredo Le Pera. Sharing the stage with Bocelli are tango dancers Paul Karmiryan and Tiffany Maher.
