[bearousisfree]

This is realy hard,I dig andrew's voice though a littel high pitched but the conductor really did him a disservise he came nowhere near his potental in the song!!! so gerate job Anderw but your conductor SSSUUUCCCKKKKSSSS!!!!!

[rickyesparza]

I love it. I found this because I was searching for Pie Jesu after watching Marie Osmond sing it so well on Oprah. I do remember seeing the Britain's Got Talent clip a few months ago.

[jim155fan]

@rickyesparza Look up 10 year old Jackie Evancho, runner-up on America's Got Talent. She like Andrew and Marie did a fantastic rendition of this song.

[rickyesparza]

@jim155fan Yeah, I also saw Jackie sing this song on America's Got Talent.

When I saw Marie sing this song on Oprah, I was like, isn't this the song Jackie

sang on America's Got Talent. I don't watch Got Talent that often, only a few seconds, but I did see Jackie

[Bilesoul]

Im getting hungry. TacoPie Jesus

[johnroxsox]

doesnt matter how many times i watch it. Im still amazed

[fuckmuffins123]

oh god! instant goosebumps on the high notes!

[JohnnyT1996]

ya i live in carlisle lol

[cimabuehw]

Men who have the ability and training to sing in the same range as sopranos are called contra tenors and are very much appreciated as artists.

[vividtower]

HIS EYES MAKES HIS SINGING MORE MEANINGFUL,THE VIBRATIONS FROM HIS VOICE IS REALLY SOMTHING DIFFERENT GOD SPEED ANDREW

[epr747]

May God Bless you

[johnnie160]

has he got a mohawk?

[Aachenhexe]

göttlich - einfach nur göttlich

[oliverj83]

Hearing him sing brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard him on BGT... I don't even know quite why... there's just something so powerful and emotional about hearing somebody produce such beautiful sound.

[heythereitsmehans]

I am the tipical guy who thought he was to smart to belive in God and thought i could get on in the world on my own but after seing this and hearing this i let God into my soal

sorry for my bad english 

[papweh]

His voice proves that there is a God

[aang3799]

omg he sings like I dont now its awesom

[HRHqueenofYT]

Beautiful!

[dianaqs]

i'm just , OMG angelical voice

[PatsGotTalentPage]

I'll tell ya, this kid makes you wanna believe!!! Beautiful!

[ChristianSpky]

Damn what a great voice.

Goosebumps

[hardcoreraver0910]

god bless you.

you deserve to win Britain's got talent

[Matrixmage833]

Thank you, your such a gift.

[Guichotpresident]

God, I should have been born in the UK :p

[SUPREMEQUEEN09]

that was beyond glorious!! a gift from God if ever their were. and I don't mean that because its a religious song, its the sheer talent that speaks to the soul.

[selvaescalada]

I've never heard an angel sing. Nor seen one. But this boy is amazing and beautiful.

[meinfb]

Those who heard the great diva Nellie Melba in her prime often likened her voice to that of a choirboy. The same purity of tone, devoid of any trace of vibrato, and the same sexless lunarbeauty. One can understand why she was the prima donna assoluta in every opera house in which she sang.

[richdann]

god-sent voice...

[0DigitalGeisha0]

Anyone know if this kid has been asked to sing for the Pope or not yet? His voice is something only God could gift. He stuns me into a revrent silence every time I hear him.

[haynakuubosnaorasko]

Carlisle Cathedral is Anglican and not part of the Catholic Ministry which makes Andrew Anglican as well. Although it is not far fetched, it is unlikely if the Catholic Church would invite Andrew.

[rellama1]

i heard this song too often now, are there any other?

[MimiChan37]

get his cd lol off the top of my head u could search bright eyes, tears in heaven, walking in the air, or if u wanna know what he sounds like these days, o come o come emmanuel =]

[cwfannumber1]

My four favorite versions of this song are His, Sarah Brightman, Celtic Woman and the one by Angelis

[MsAutumnfalls]

simply beautiful

[jugulator2009]

genial maravilloso video

[dbirdez]

May the Lord allow you to continually bless others as you have me. Inspirational

[dinorah7722]

Voice of an angel, God bless him, and I hope he goes far with his talent...Your voice brings tears to my eyes !

[steve273]

[WhereisVinnie]

[JanDirk1000]

Es ist so wunderschön diesem jungen , begnadeten, Kerl zuzuhören, und ich kann mich kallemarie nur anschließen. Es ist etwas ganz wunderbares was dem Jungen geschenkt wurde. hoffe mehr von ihm zu hören.

[kellylpn071]

I love to hear your voice Andrew. It is that heavenly Angel voice that only God can put in you! It sounds like an angel singing. And for your bullies, Let God handle them and you just keep doing what you are doing!

[jedirei]

[fabreluke]

[mdelan5]

God Bless You

[arenakitty]

Andrew my family and I loveeee your voice. I can feel God's touch in ur voice. I wish you the best of luck. As for those miserable idiots that tease you, well... how sad. They could never understand the beauty of music.  It takes heart. Something they obviously don't have.

The best from Texas, USA

[DarkRose357]

Make that double wishes from Texas. Andrew's voice has encouraged my search for talented atists such as he. The light of God shines through his voice, and moves something inside every time I hear it.

[wilkinson4eva]

Is Pie Jesu italian or something? He sings very well and i hope he continues.

[05005051]

Latin. It means "Merciful Jesus" and is a hymn about the forgiveness and resting of souls.

[Hornylildevil20]

wait till his voice breaks lol sad really but if you had men with hight pitched voices it wouldn't be right

[urracal]

superb voice, wonder, now he is aged 16, whether he is still singing?

[TheElya18]

you are so good you are a very great keep it up Andrew you go boy this is so preety I love all of you'r songs you do

[juplay2]

yes his voice is phenomina.........it brought me 2 tears.......i loved it

[6our6vampire6hearts]

his voice is phenominal!!!!! those high notes are just incredible! such a beautiful song

[xXxUNIKExXx]

Its a beautifull song =)))

[angelaviolet]

I know its lovely and he sings like an angel, but I couldn't help noticing the head reflected behind Andrews shoulder - it looks like a werewolf - don't you agree?

[BattleField360]

what language is that???

it sounds so beautiful -.-

[iduns]

The music is by Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) and is taken from his Requiem Mass in D minor.

The language is Latin;

Pie Jesu Domine,

dona eis requiem.

Pie Jesu Domine,

dona eis requiem sempiternam.

The works exists in three versions and you can read more about it here. There are several fine recordings of this work available on CD.

[iduns]

Hmmm - link didn't work. Try Googling; Requiem (Fauré)

[singndance4evr]

its actually Andrew Lloyd Webber's version...not Faure's version

[iduns]

LOL

[ThatOneDude88]

This is NOT Faure's harmonic version.  Text, maybe. . It is Andrew Lloyd Weber's tune.

[iduns]

My apologies. You are correct, this is the Lloyd Weber version.

[choirboy526]

You are completely mistaken... this is from Andrew Lloyd Weber's Requiem....

The Faure Requiem's Pie Jesu is a completely different piece

[singndance4evr]

latin

[xxBenteee]

it's old latin if I'm right... love this song!!

[XxembolicxX]

Kia Kaha andrew. ( Be strong) Lots of love from New Zealand. xD

[purpleblake]

kia kaha = stand strong

Tu meke

[XxembolicxX]

heheh. Okay.. STAND STRONG! Lol. xDD Tu meke durr bre'da. xD where abouts you from?

[Sibadibdoo2]

It's unusual for children my age to like classical music, but there is something about boy choristors that I love and none of my friends understand because they are into pop and rock and I love this soooo much!

Well sung!

Truly amazing.

[95n96girl]

me 2 I'm 13 my friends lovingly make fun of me because they finally got used to the fact that it's one of the things I love. (and they find amusement when I try to sing opera since I'm a mezo soprano at the best times)

[Sibadibdoo2]

Yeh, I'm exactly the same as you!

I'm thirteen and share the same music taste as my grandma!

I also sing Mezo soprano!

[ena1rume]

carry on

[ticsilla]

well..i am also in rock (or pop..) but i like classical music and opera, because its beautiful and relaxing. ( and i liked it when i was 13 too)

and i like fo example andrew johnston. :)

[flutelover0307]

amazing!!!! you rock kiddo!

[MischaCh]

you are realy goooddd ,,, keppp it going .. and fuck offf to all the bulliers

[annhifive]

Annhifive

A lovely voice wish you good luck Andrew .

[HUNNNE19]

[xxxdizzy249]

[monicats]

[heiroglyphx3]

[Lieesaai]

[heiroglyphx3]

BEYOND GODLIKE!!

[tetetiesto]

dota???

[fuvki]

he is angel!Q

[Pentdad]

I can sing this. Weeeeeeiiiisuuuu.... Weeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiisuuuuuuuuu.

How do you like that?

[donhenri01]

it is arthur lloyd weber's pie jesu, isnt it?

[Hannobeer]

Yes it is :) (btw: it's andrew lloyd webber)

[alonelychild]

actually no is charles manheinn version, i don´t know why it became known as Weeber´s

[allenst]

he sings webbers version. faure was first to popularize but wbber has taken over in last 25 yrs

[alonelychild]

Yes indeed, BUT I was told in seminar that Manheinn was emolated by Webber, so this is actually Manheinn´s. The problem with it is that he never publishes, never records, and is completely anti-social.

[robmilne12]

What's with the hair, is he a rock star now?

[littlehobbit79]

Why are you paying attention to the hair? It's about the music he is making!

[leNaLWss]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nikky0902]

he always make me have this insane feeling.

its like im,as every1 is,amazed...having goose bumps,and i just feel so...so..odd and great.....

U ROCK MAN!

[hedgey3000]

he sings great just i think on the high notes he is pushing a little to hard if you know what i mean, i mean obviously its not easy, i know that for a fact, im just saying you know.. oh well dont stop singing andrew :P

[heslop01]

I can see what you mean; i'm doing this piece at the end of term performance at my stageschool and my singing teacher told me to sing it slowly then not push the notes to hard or it'll force you to lose control of breath.

[hedgey3000]

uv gt a good singing teacher :) anyways gd luck!!!

[littlemagellan]

Yeah he's a bit pitchy.

[Nosteralien]

I want to see he sings this same music with 30 years old.

[zombiekiller60]

At 30 he'll be singing other music, and he'll still be doing it better than you've ever done anything.

[Nosteralien]

lol, how can u talk about me if u dont know who I am. He sings too high, his voice will change... I hope he keeps his talent along the years.

[Alphawaste123456]

I know ur behaving like a fucking retard man . quit being an ass and enjoy the kids music... U know within urself that he is talented .. so shut up and stop throwing dirt on the kid. Im not the first person to tell u to quit being an ass ,, U need to check urself

[Nosteralien]

OMG, look at your text. Am I the retarded ? See if I used any aggressive word in my comments. U need to check yourself, I just gave my opinion. If my opinion is different, just ignore it. Get a life man. Look at your behavior, try to be a normal person who can discuss with intelligence instead of slum texts.

[labartic]

youre a douchebag LOL

[ZodiacEl]

what are you then if he s a douchbag?

[wg390]

Nosteralien

you one of these bullies who has no talent, no skills just :

a Big f .. mouth

[Nosteralien]

You dont know who I am, so I will ignore your comment about my talents.

I think that Andrews is a great artist, I just said that I dont know if he will keep his talent along the years with that voice. Im not bulling anyone. Just bringing possible facts. I hope he keeps his talents along the years.

[tranurse]

if he has a good teacher when his voice starts changing, he'll learn to sing just as good in a lower register.

[Imvu360]

god bless dat kidd

[barbaralea7]

Thank you so much for this beautiful singing. Beauty challenges the world, and artists are, in a way, warriors for it.

[cathepburn]

hey britains, good bless him

[rufoolish]

God?

[Cajko]

GODLIKE

[karatekatalog]

do you not understand the incredible responsibility and honor that this young lad has, now as the head choirister of a cathedral?  bless this young man.

[rumerlovesyou]

Dear friend. How extraordinary that you can extrapolate a whole litany of my shortcomings from one innocent remark!!!!

[loveforyou1000]

OMG! I cry so much. AMAZING SINGER!!

[rumerlovesyou]

this is the only appropriate envionment for andrew to sing in.

[dontevenstartme]

you show ingorance not only of the music industry but also or mass opinion and music performance ingeneral.

[rumerlovesyou]

Hello Friend. I think you may have misunderstood me. I am merely pointing out that the beauty of the cathedral matched the beauty of andrew's voice, and it's the perfect environent. I do think its the only appropriate enviroment... why  sing in a hall with crap acoustics when you can tour cathedrals?

[Nosteralien]

lol

[ytcarol]

No, this is absolutely NOT the only environment for him to sing in.  Anywhere people appreciate beauty and talent is just fine. Notice how many places he has since sung... and been welcomed? Don't be provincial.

[Daisytoo]

Andrew, you Are a winner .. you have talent and the power of your principled convictions. Never ever give up. Your voice sends me to heaven! Thank you for singing.

[osaintboy]

Fantástico, mais uma vez Deus se mostra presente

[SFlovesJS]

This boy is truly amazing. I cant believe he was bullied for singing this sort of music,, he has a gift to be proud of x

[stegooo2000]

You are truly amazing!!!! Keep singing.

I have your rendition of "Tears in Heaven" on my phone and listen to it all the time.

You don't need to win the competition to be successful - I hope you get a good agent .

[Dorisequador]

They have been waiting for you andrew............. A singing voice from GOD!

Gift.use it boy!

777

[brashol]

HE IS AMAZING!!!

[liszj15]

I must say, i don't like this kind of music. But when he's singing, i like it.

Go on Andrew, You're the best.

[earthypig]

you know i'm not a christian any more, but when i hear beautiful music like this, i do feel the spiritual pull -- i think such artistry is something we can all appreciate regardless of our religious convictions.

[explodingplant]

i loveee pie jesu, from hearing it in my childhood and then being reminded of it by andrew. but i don't know why'd you feel a "spiritual pull" b/c of it. i appreciate it culturally, why feel compelled to think there's anything more to it?

[earthypig]

hm -- i don't mean in a religious sense -- far from it -- but anything of great beauty reaches the realm of spirituality for me. i don't know if i'm making myself clear? :-\

i could even say, that the music is so beautiful that DESPITE its religious context, i feel a spritual, transcendental pull. i do not think that such a state has anything to do with the tyranny and short-sighted cultural blindness of organized religion. :)

[earthypig]

"i appreciate it culturally"

i actually think that great art transcends its cultural context, be it religious or otherwise, though it's good background knowledge to have. :)

[LemmingD84]

His voice is uncomparably beautiful.

[ranevoj09]

god bless u

[CSSjumper]

I realy hope he reads all this nice comments about him ! :)

Carry on singing ! ! !

[aacheam]

bless you, boy! amazing...

[Pitanga990]

Sissel kirkjebø and him together, i think it would be magical. two persons with a gift from god.

[MrJiggyFly01]

WHAT A GIFT FROM GOD, OMG

[mrowa83]

doskonały głos 15 letniego chłopca pierwszy raz w życiu słyszałem taki głos u tak młodego człowieka słuchałem kilkanaście razy dzieło artysty pozdrawiam z Polski

[tricycle76]

surely Andrew's voice is a gift from God!

I think those saying he'll lose it when he hits puberty is missing the point...

Its a beautiful voice from the Lord, for us all to enjoy... not tomorrow nor in the future cos it might be lost, but here n now!

so enjoy his voice now n quit worrying bout puberty

[adam378]

you know, i just became familar with Andrew Johntson's voice today, especially with all the Susan Boyle hype from Britain's Got Talent Show...and when I heard him begin to sing, I was so moved...

It's amazingly beauiful, and as you said, I realized that his voice wont remain the same for his entire life and its that fleeting quality of beauty that makes it all so more amazing.

I guess I'm just a sap....appreciating the joys of life, even if they can be fleeting.

[ytcarol]

adam378, we should all be "saps" like you, loving these sweet moments! Oh, watch him performing "Make Me a Channel of Your Peace" - it's amazing too.

[pedrolusitano]

INCRIVEL!!! NÃO TENHO PALAVRAS!!!

[tennisboy1314]

what genre of music is this?

[apriestgodneverpaid]

Choir/Classical i'd say

[LittleBigPanda]

Specifically he is a part of the Anglican Church music tradition, (the church of England). It has an amazingly rich history of music.

[netsuke69]

This part of the REQUIEM of Andrew LLOYD WEBBER !

[ILOVEBEECHCRAFT]

wow.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aas5868015]

Very great... especially.. He's only 13 !!

[liez2010]

very awesome.....

[hillena]

truly an angel

[mnlrjv]

OMG! TOO BEAUTIFUL!

[fcuk31]

This message is meant for JAXOOR.

The more you are trying to say, the more your evil tail come out. If it is really the truth like what u said, well, sooner or later, people will know, no need you to be the middle man to tell the whole world about it. Guess what, you are not even Qualified to be a 'middle man/speaks person' of Andrew cos you will only 'dirty' his reputation.

[BelleandBuster4Eva]

amazing voice

[JAXOOR]

tbh you speak like you know him, you don't, you sound pretty obsessed and almost hurt by the truth i am telling, shame really.
