  • I need to meet this girl

    New Zealand loves you!!

  • Comment removed

  • @loveakoniBATMAN Thank you. I appreciate the validation and only wish the best for this young lady.

  • I'm not posting this to cause any controversy but I'm genuinely concerned for this young girl. I'm a Juilliard trained, professional singer with 35 years teaching experience. Notice the audible, gasping sound she makes when she breathes and how she raises her shoulders and chest at the same time. Lots of tension in that and in the way her lips and tongue quiver. She needs a teacher NOW who knows what she's doing. That said, it is a phenomenal voice that needs lots of guidance and care.

  • @sopurrano1 i agree with you. she has the most amazing voice that i have ever heard but as soon as i saw her sing i got really concerned. if we want this kind of talent to last they should seek professional help.

  • @sopurrano1Could it be you have been doing it wrong? Jackie has the best voice i have ever herd bar none including any student you ever taught.

  • @JokersFunHouse

    How many of my students have you heard?

  • I wish I had HALF the talent Jackie has, she's an AMAZING singer and she's blessed to have such an amazing and beautiful talent.

  • @Shadowassasin14 I'd be glad if I had 1/4 of her talent! :O

  • @CupcakeGirl91694 Yeah you're right, having just 1/4 would be amazing! <3

  • why does she have an engagement ring?.......

  • @chymonful I have heard it is a promise keeper's ring from her dad.

  • oh my god she's so gorgeous and a great singer keep up the good work and people please stop with the Fake beacuse this is not did you see her on American idol like @silverfang11221 wrote

  • @silverfang11221 you're horrible. She's not fake. Have you seen American idol??

  • @Winxclublover02 You're right. She's not fake at all. But she was on America's Got Talent. Too young for American Idol, and they never would have put her through on that show. They're looking for "pop" talent, as opposed to REAL talent. No disrespect intended to A.I. contestants and winners.

  • Fake

  • @silverfang11221 you're soooo noob...we can hear her breath and all the small mistakes she mades...

    She s amazing, born to be a star...you are nothing .

  • geese!!! no doubt she got the talent but anyone else here SUPER jelous??????

  • WOW...Talent, beauty, grace and she shares it with all of us. ~~~Thank You Jackie!!!

  • OMG so much better then the original.... what a beautiful prodigy!!

  • :O. Great voice jackie!

  • She has a engagement ring!

  • @CordeliaRosee it's a purity ring.

  • There is nothing more ethereal than a stunning voice...unless that stunning voice is singing an classic Disney song!

  • Her voice sounds like angle

  • Aw man. That kid who started coughing at 2:55 took me out of my trance, lol.

  • This made me think about disney world......

  • hello, so you were at this concert ? :D

  • its amazing how so many people know what to say when all I can do is go :O

  • Wow now thats a gift given by GOD, she an amazing little girl with such a grown up voice. Its possible, this young girl is just so beautiful, and she has a wonderful voice. I'm looking foward to 2 seeing her in about 10 years still singing. Her voice is abosolutly amazing, and a wonderful gift from GOD. Peace , Love and God bless her familly. This sweet looking 10 year old girl transforms into a fully grown woman when she sings and gracefully turns back to 10, i agree with Handiman544, gifted

  • doesn't even begin to decsribe what this beautiful girl has, she amazing and wonderful, and i wish her the best. She is trully a moving, inspiring, and lovely singer. *~♥Jacob Alexander Perez is my true Prince♥~*

  • Comment removed

  • I didnt know it was possible for a person her age to sound like that O.o

  • @98andew

    It is like listening to an angel sing.

  • HORRID ACOUSTICS. THERE IS NO SEPARATION OR BALANCE.

  • 14 people dont have a heart

  • Tell me i'm not the only one in love?

  • awesome singer with a bright future. keep going and never give up. god bless!

  • Simply amazing! Way to go!

  • She looks like Rachel Hurd-Wood. I miss Wendy.

  • This leaves me speechless..... Breathtaking

  • my favorite song...

  • To hear Jackie Evancho and Tony Bennett singing "When You Wish Upon a Star" together, go to: hollywoodreporter,com/news/ton­­­y-bennett-jackie-evancho-sin­g­-­237311 (you'll have to scroll down to the bottom to find the play button. Rather haunting: the 85 year-old crooner with the 11-year old. It's a cut from Tony Bennett's Duets II Album, but only on the Deluxe version available (for now) only at Target. (You'll have to replace the comma above in the url with a period.)

  • i don`t like her...i mean its not like she is so good... I LOVE HER AND SHE IS SCARY GOOD!!! keep on going you sound FANTASTIC and like an ANGEL !! <3<3<3

  • This girl is a real artist. Her physical gestures when she's singing indicate that she could probably be a conductor as well. The musical maturity truly is freaky. Hope she doesn't get eaten up by the evilness that is the music industry.

  • Amazing! How do people dislike this?! Crazy!

  • omg is that her ACCUALL vice? shes aamzing, KUDOS to her <3<3<3<3<3<3<3

  • Kudos to the person(s) that does Jackie's clothes, hair and make-up. She never looks slutty or over-exposed or reaching with clothes that are too mature. She always looks like a classy little girl.

  • She has excellent control of her vibrato and breath. Very difficult to do.

  • Rejoice! please!!!!!!!

    

  • I'd buy a CD of her singing classic Disney songs. She's breathtaking.

  • @ohheyyassi brilliant idea

  • Beautiful Voice

  • Am I dead yet? Is this heaven? Why did I hear a beautiful angel singing to me?

  • I just wish she wont grow up beyond 10! such pure innocence, blessed talent and definitely an angel singing for us here on earth.. like if u agree

  • 8 people didn't get their wishes

  • i love ACDC, and metal n hard rock, but man can this kid sing, absolutely awesome voice :)

  • It's crasy a little girl like Jackie should not have a vois like this!

    Super..fantastic!!

  • It's crasy a little girl like Jackie should not have a vois like this!

  • This is a very good song for Jackie's voice.

  • jackie is beatiful very very beatiful

  • The voice of an angel!

    amazingly shocking

  • ***goosebumps***

    like it!!!

  • @GuinnBerger

    Are you a vocal instructor? Yvie Burnett is Jackie's vocal coach, She then trained as an operatic mezzosoprano, and sung professionally with the Welsh National Opera. Jackie performs using her "Head voice" or upper register and doe's not belt. Thereby virtually putting no strain on the vocal chords.Jackie is essentially a "Bel Canto" stylist which is predominately used in classical singing. She is seen by a otolaryngolists (Larynx Doctor) twice a year to assure vocal health.

  • Just stunningly beautiful.

  • i love her voice >.<!!

  • What I find so enchanting is when she's performing, she's this worldly, mature, polished and sophisticated singer. At the end, she turns back into a 10 year old who seems as astonished as we are that this beautiful, angelic voice is was given to her. I hope she never looses that humility. Its adds so much beauty to what's already there. For her, gifted doesn't begin to describe what she has. I wish her a long and healthy life.

  • O M G she is better than the original

  • Jesus Christ, this must be heaven on earth.

  • Most mature, beautiful, angelic voices that I have ever heard from such a young child. If she was to stop singing, it would be a travesty. Great voice.

  • One word....WOW!

  • Wonderful. Thank you for sharing

  • she is amazing ;]hahahahahahahahahahahhhahahx­D

  • amazing. im still mad that america didnt vote. that was the problem. that michael grim guy only won because people didnt vote when they should have. she's way better than him.

  • @abbyx230 Not true. The producers voted him as the winner. They wanted his family to get the money which he said he would do, and they did not want a child headlining in Sin City. Plus they knew Jackie would be a huge star in any case, so Michael got his fame to do with as he can.

    But the shock on his face was telling. He knew she should have won on talent alone. He felt very chagrined for her and repeatedly said so.

  • I just watched this beautiful performance for the umpteenth time, and the cynic who lives in the back of my head said "Yeah, but it's a simple song, easy to sing." I had to think about that. A singer who is merely technically good could take a more difficult song and dazzle us with technique, but it takes a true artist to take a "simple" song like this and make it magic - like Judy Garland singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." Of course, Jackie can also dazzle us with more complex stuff too.

  • omg she's great

  • oh my goodness!!!! i thought at first she must be lip synching !!!!!! what an older voice she has!

  • you are the person that is my favorite gaby 7 yrs old

  • ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW SHE CAN SING GOOD.

  • 6 people dont like angels

  • SHE'S the only ONE BEST EVER SINGER IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. GOD must have sent her down to show the WORLD what God can do and create someone like her. I love her more, i wish and pray that she'll stay grounded, humble and kind, and inspire a lot of kids out there and she'll get better,and better as time goes. Please take care of her.

  • Move over Barbra Streisand !!!!!!!!!

  • You`re good

  • Hmm I always associated this song to Disney for some reason. Well I guess they will be promoting her even more soon enough.

  • STUNNING! I am a big opera fan and a late-comer to the "Jackie Experience" (just since the PBS special), so I have been more or less stuck on her performances of Nessun Dorma and O Mio Babbino Caro, as well as songs like Nella Fantasia, Ave Maria and Pie Jesu (OK, and The Prayer). I have skipped this video until now because I assumed any performance of this song would be a light bit of fluff. Was I ever so wrong! This is the most beautiful and moving performance by Jackie I have seen so far.

  • @fischerman46 there isn't any fluff in any or Jackie's song.. She sings each song with absolute purity and perfection.. You named all that you heard from Jackie. Did you happen to hear her and the Canadian tenors sing together? You will love it...

  • @stktrader1I Yes, I have seen the video with the Canadian Tenors. It is wonderful. By the way, I see you spend your Saturday nights the same way I do!

  • A joy listening to. :o)

  • Amazing voice. Just like an "Angel" and I respect her for that. Disney songs EVERYONE can remember from her version of this song! I cannot believe she didn't win last year! She SHOULD have won! She's been singing since she was 8, that takes ALOT of time to get a voice like that! I will ALWAYS remember this song and her voice! AMAZING TALENTED GIRL!

  • around the world yes.. i am amazed at this being... she has the body of a child the emotional intelligence of an adult woman and the soul of an angel... i can't see some of these vids coz it says that in my country they haven't been made available. i have ordered her cd's but have to wait 6weeks.. i certainly hope she includes Australia in her world tour.. <3 to jackie..

  • I just heard that Jackie will be on the Piers Morgan Tonight show on Friday July 1 st

  • The freaking sound in that place is amazing. I love the acoustics, but not in combination with the sound system. She could have filled that whole place without a microphone.

  • I absolutely love this girl... I have been following her everywhere... Well, not everywhere... I am in louisiana and I watch her on youtube... Great job Jackie... Great inspiration.. <3

  • This is Gods promise that he is always there. What a beautiful child with a voice of an angel. Thank you to her parents for sharing such a blessing with the world.

    ....and a child shall lead them....

  • im gobsmacked .. so much pureity and beauty in one voice..no matter what i say ,words wouldnt be enough ..all i can do is sit and listen, and be glad im alive to hear gods gift in one so young

  • Jackie is so inspiring!

  • whoa people! are you all ignorant . how dare you even try to compare an 11 yr old against any grown up adult is so childish. she is an 11year old with the greatest voice of this time and age to try and compare is just plain ridiculous for music this girl brings a lump in my throat and tears to my eyes and she is the best 11 yr old to this day do not compare to any adult .most divas may want to sing with her now as you have seen open your ears and eyes for her future.lucky we are

  • Absolutely Amazing.

  • Simply stunning. This is what happens when a beatifully crafted piece is delivered by someone with such a talent as this. None of those awful, awful vocal acrobatics which so many of our moder day singers inflict upon their songs. This is a rare and precious talent. Many of our so called singers of today should look, listen and learn from this performance. Just beautiful in every way.

  • this is one of the few disney covers that impresses me. nicely done JE.

  • This is so beautiful. :)

  • well damn....she went through puberty already. her voice is so deep...wow...

  • hope all your dreams come true lol

  • merci a papsmurfdad pour ces précieuses vidéos de notre STAR préférée.

    Thank you has papsmurfdad for these invaluable videos of our favorite STAR.

  • merci a papsmurfdad pour ces précieuses vidéos de notre STAR préférée.

  • Oh her PBS show Jackie said when she starts to sing something just takes over her and you can clearly see that happening ..especially after the song is over she comes back to be the little fun girl that she is.. it's a transformation that is quite amazing to watch

  • Jackie you have a beautifull voice! keep singing and keep that sweet spirit :)

  • Wow i nearly fainted shes soo good i wish i could meet her

  • I was reading some comments in a different blog, and it dawned on me one of the reasons Jackie is so special. She literally gives 100% effort on EVERY SINGLE NOTE she sings to make it as beautiful as she can. There are a LOT of professional singers who should be taking notes.

  • she is so beautifull!

  • My dear baby Jackie... you give me GOOSEBUMPS. Sweet angel, I hope and pray if and when I have my own daughter, she'd grow up to be like you...well I'll love her no matter what, any way :)

  • This kind of music or tone.. will only depends on the listeners.

    Kudos to this girl.

  • Oh she's just enchanting!! From the first time I saw her on America's Got Talent I cried....I knew she'd be a star! She should have won!!

  • Comment removed

  • Indeed, Jackie showed off just a little. Why not? She can get away with it. I have to laugh as she polishes off the song with that long hold. How can anyone not adore this beautiful angel? I listen to her sing and the mood of the whole day changes for the brighter. And then I remember she practices "an hour a day" and my jaw relaxes into its normal Jackie mode ... dropped.

  • she should be in the catacory of the "savont syndrome"

  • niceeeeeeeeeee jakie 1 fan love it awwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  • omg, i love you

    and you are really talented, your version of this song is BETTER than orginal

    you are the best and im not wrong !

    i have never, ever heard a 10-y-old girl with voice like you !

  • If you told me Jackie Evancho was an angel from above, I wouldn't have any trouble beleiving you. Her voice is uplifting and inspiring and ateriffic motivator for young talents out there growing up today. I wish you the best Jakie from the bottom of my heart. You make a grown man cry. I am 46 and I am not ashamed to say it. Thank you for sharing your pleasant voice with us. God Bless you.

  • Americas Got You !

  • wonderfull!

  • Jackie makes me feel like a little kid again... after having watched so many romantic Disney Cartoons during the 80s...sigh ;~)

  • We've attended hundreds of concerts over the past 40 years, from 33 acts in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. We're season subscribers to the Houston Grand Opera. None could compare to this Houston concert. We were in the second pew, and her voice was other-worldly, haunting. It put you in a dream state. Wish/Star had us spellbound but Nessun was the best song I ever heard! And you can now save these Youtubes as a DVD concert with the new Realplayer.

  • What can one write about sound so beautiful it almost hurts? Jackie is beautiful inside and out but I have never heard sounds so beautiful in my life. Since the recordings of her singing are so moving I can't imagine what hearing her live must be like. But if at all possible, I intend to find out. There simply are no words, dear Jackie.

  • many thanks for this post: WOW" WOW" Everybody !! We are lucky for the You tube,

    And for the beautiful family of this Beautiful girl.......... LOVE YOU JACKIE!!!!

    I too! am waiting to see her! and all of her cd's to come , better yet DVD's!!

  • many thanks for this post: WOW" WOW" Everybody !! We are lucky for the You tube,

    And for the beautiful family of this Beautiful girl.......... LOVE YOU JACKIE!!!!

  • Jackie...you're killing me "...but I mean that in a good way...a good way" as Huey Mandel AGT had said. Carrying that last note for so long is... loss for words...absolutely stunning. She sang so many songs as viewed here, just how long was this concert? Gosh was that a lucky crowd or what? I also notice that background noise doesn't phase her one bit or make her skip a beat. I thought Fight Night crowd was the real challenge and proof of that. Remember gang April 9 she will be 11 !

  • THE BEST OPERA SINGER EVER ...IS 10 YRS OLD!!!!!!!!

  • I love her simple and innocent expression of heart. I just hope it stays that way! Mostly all these famous stars, celebrities etc., choose a way of immorality and sin. Even of they would sing beautiful songs with a beautiful voice it would never reach the hearts but only the minds.

  • Jackie!!! Your voice is so breathtaking, and so far beyond your young years... Your voice is such a gift from God, and darlin, your such a blessed girl to have been given such a beautiful voice..... I am a real fan.... bless your heart.

  • a new Star is born !!!

  • Very well said Paul, &Mr piece!!! Include me too! What a beautiful world this would be if all were like Jackie Evancho, We will thank all that got her to where she is now!! Starting with her Mother& father!! We are so lucy to see this all taking place as we watch from theYou Tube" thanks to them,most of all: papasmurfdad! for posting it! not at all but least A Big thanks to Everyone who has beautiful things to say about her!! I love dearly" Thanks again!!

  • AMAZING..... Thats what i have to say about this litle girl.... She´s AMAZING. Thanks the parents for breing, and educat one girl like this....

  • She has to be one of the best child singers in the world today, if not the best. Each time I hear her, the emotion in her voice, it always brings tears to my eyes.

  • @nikolayzou There is no question that she is the best.

  • @nikolayzou She is no *child* singer any longer. Even here, she was one of the world's best singers who just happened to be a child ;)

  • @nikolayzou Please point me in the direction of any child singers that may be better. If they are better or as good I'd love to hear them sing.

  • @lvg777 There are a few great child singers, not to hard to find on YouTube, but I think you might be right, she is probably the best I have ever heard.

  • Ten years old, and she managed to hold (and UPhold) that last note for an entire YEAR ! One tenth of her life ! Wow!

  • Much has been written about Jackie's beautiful singing, Her wonderful personality and charm. to be sure she has it all. I think we need to look at the source for a minute. Lisa and Mike Evancho Have worked tirelessly to promote Jackie's career.I have nothing but respect for their decisions and handling this situation. Their lives as well as their childrens revolve around Jackie. due to her success. I wish them all the best and great success in this endeavor.I hope they make millions. Lord bless

  • Goodness, does she hold that last note long enough? Where did she get the lungs for that? That was competition for the Barbra Streisand hold it forever award. Lovely. Absolutely lovely.

  • OMG!! WOW!!

    I love Jackie. I love everything about her. I'll never see her live (no money) but I'll buy everything she puts out somehow. I owe you, tunanorth, Jackie, her parents and all her fans an apology. I shot off my mouth because I was hurting. I'm sorry.

    I'll always be a Jackie fanatic. She's the best.

  • @silassays

    You are correct, she is the best......ever.

    Everything's cool.

  • @silassays Apology accepted on my part. We certainly have something in common and I am delighted by your post. i would hate to see anyone miss all the wonderful things that Jackie has to offer. I can appreciate your financial situation. Been there done that and know it is no fun. I pray that things will get better for you. As a Jackie fan you can draw inspiration from that little lady who really works hard to be able to perform as she does. I know I do. I too love this little Lady.

  • @silassays You don't seem to know how families work! As long as she is the bread winner and still a minor I would assume that to be the case. After all, her rumored signing advance with Columbia was more than most of us would make in two lifetimes so I would assume that their standard of living would go up. I am sure that a significant portion is managed and placed in a trust for her.

  • @prometheus0814 I believe if anything Jackie's singing has done for the family has been more disruption of the normal life they had before and it doesn't seem their life before from what I've seen was anything but loving and normal.I believe they are still adjusting to the Fame Jackie is recieving.Trying to have a normal family life with a Superstar in the middle of it is probably very trying.For a wonderful family like the Evancho's.I don't believe she's the family breadwinner.

  • @bpamo .... I think many fans feel the frustration or rather anticipation of hearing Nessun Dorma. In all fairness though I don't think the Evanchos' decision has to do with opera snobs. There is some mystery surrounding Nessun Dorma. I personally would not be surprised to see a professionally made video of Houston surface and become part of a PBS special for Jackie. Maybe they want to save the best for last... who knows.

  • @tube7562 It was only a wish, not a request, I just bought some copies of david foster's dvd from amazon, while at the amazon site someone is selling a copy of her prelude cd for five hundred dollars, and if that is not incredible I don't know what is, and to think I hesitated purchasing some copies of prelude last year, oh well, I suppose that not only am I an opera snob, but I am lost as well.

  • @tube7562 I doubt you will see a professionally made video because the sound quality is so poor with all the reverberation off the church walls. That would require a lot of sound technology whose cost would be absorbed by whom...Columbia? Since they did not set up sound equipment, and she is under contract to them, there will be no professional video.

  • I wish we could see her perform nessun dorma

    I wish we could see her perform nessun dorma

    I wish we could see her perform nessun dorma

    Make three wishes and it will come true, right?

  • Comment removed

  • @silassays That's a bit unfair, if it weren't for their love for their daughter's dream we might never have heard of this wonderful child at all, I listen to Opera frequently, I mean why have bits and pieces when you can have the whole thing. Whatever their decision for their little daughter, for she is still their child, we will just have to learn to be patient.

  • Comment removed

  • @silassays Did you ever stop and think that perhaps jackie herself might not have wanted ND posted on you tube? I respect the Evancho's decision, but I also will be one of the million's who will buy her cd, and if you pass up that opportunity you are only cutting off your own nose to spite your face, as they say. All the copies of jackie's prelude to a dream cd are gone, and I see that someone on ebay sold one for fifteen hundred dollars. Temper, temper.
