==History==
Originally "The Prayer" was recorded as two separate solo versions, Dion's in English and Bocelli's in Italian. They appeared on the ''Quest for Camelot'' soundtrack in May 1998. The duet was included on albums by both artists, released a few months later. The song won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song from the 1999 film ''Quest for Camelot'', the second win in a row for a Celine Dion song. In that film, Dion sang it as a solo with slightly different lyrics. It was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1999 and a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals in 2000. Dion performed it with Bocelli at both ceremonies.
It was also featured on Dion's compilation ''The Collector's Series, Volume One'' (2000) and greatest hits ''My Love: Ultimate Essential Collection'' (2008). A re-recorded solo version by Celine Dion (renamed "A Mother's Prayer") appeared on her 2004 album ''Miracle''. Dion performed "The Prayer" live during her Taking Chances Tour as a virtual duet with Bocelli on the screen; the performance was released in the ''Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert'' CD/DVD. The song appeared also on Bocelli's 2007 compilation ''The Best of Andrea Bocelli: Vivere''. Dion joined Bocelli to perform the song in his ''Concerto: One Night in Central Park'' concert in 2011; the performance was subsequently released on CD and DVD. Both Dion and Bocelli have sung the song with other artists, and various other artists have recorded the song, either as a duet or a solo
"The Prayer" was popular on the adult contemporary charts in Canada and the United States, peaking at number 6 and number 22 respectively. It has also become popular during Christmas, weddings and in some cases, funerals.
