[fritzy991]

[ilywamh12]

how old is shee..... shess so adoriblee<33

[ThePeakay]

u r brilliant

[wolfmyth007]

She is so cute....

[Maskedman1951]

For those who are hung up on the fly in the video... all I have to say is, Bravo, Abbey.. You showed allot of class and professionalism. Anyone else would have not been able to ignore the distraction. She has more courage and class at eight years old, then many who are 2, 4, and even 8 times older. Go Girl, I loved your performance.

[thebeachbabe9703]

u gotta a gr8 voice but u do realize their was a fly on u 4 part of the time, right? first it flies in2 ur face and then it kept crawling on ur hands

[YouMooks]

Bravo Zulu= job well done

[potterviv99]

love this song

[DeansLady88]

Amazing voice, Abby along with Billy Gilman!

[tempamore]

aww... :( So cute

[abbiebubble]

Abbey has Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease but she is phenomenal. At her age, she's the National Goodwill Ambassador

[CheeseLovingSinger]

that is fuckin hilarious!!!1:35 there is a fly on her nose then her hand!!!she never even notices it!

[MrUakUak]

Ok, not to throw anyone off, and I meant this in no offense, but is that a fly that's buzzing around her hand?

[JackMcFarlandFan1]

Aw this little girl is phenominal (: I hope I spelled that right. And Jerry obviously cares for her like he does all children. He's a sweetheart<3

[smurfgrl95]

she is so pretty and a wonderful singer! This is so beautiful:)

[athenaskye0112]

is she a filipino??

[prissi]

@athenaskye0112 she's half, yes.

[TeeEye84Plus]

[ArdieKing]

This little girl is abosolutly amazing and FYI guys she is 11 Abby is a vary telented young lady with a few big dreams and the MDA is helping to reach those dreams Bless you Abby and all those who are a part of the MDA team

[maddirose1996]

shes really good jw how old is she??

[unknown68652]

can i get this song on itunes cuz wow!!! awsome five stars

[KatieEhm]

is she a midget??

[JamieValentine123]

@KatieEhm - Is that all you can think about? You have an amazing singer there and all you care about is how short she is, and also, midget isn't appropreat!! She obvously has something wrong with her legs, if you notic she hes blue ban - aids bhind her knees but it doesn't matter.. Shes an amazing singer and if you can't see the talent in her, i suggest you look at a different video..

*JamieValentine123*

[Jesusgirl143]

Hey *JamieValentine123*, Yes Abbey has something with her legs, and so do I and I cant stand when people point it out. Its happens alot too.(especially in school). and I just read your comment and it made me cry, cause it reminded me of what kids do to me. and KatieEhm,is soo wrong for pointing out that Abbey is short, who really cares if Abbey is short, shes an amazing child. And God Bless that little girl. shes phenomenal.

[unknown68652]

go fuck yourself shes not a midget idiot she has leg problems and is abvouslys is young

[Jesusgirl143]

Nice comment there, and KatieEhm is wrong, but I hate when people point out stuff like that. Its turns my stomach. it turns my stomach cause I have something wrong my my legs too, and i know how Abbey feels, shes perfectly normal like everyone else. and KatieEhm just cant see that.

[bclcmcca0123]

she is so good

[tonkahoosier]

She did such an awesome job! She's adorable. I'm so glad I got to finally help out work the telethon this year.

[nednes001]

I wish she will have international carriere, she sing wonderful. And her voice is so better in 1 year. I love this kid. I hope someone help her with a singing carriere coz i see in her eyes that will be her future. And i know she can do that!!!

[Nessa4everAsh]

i wanna have a child

[survivrs]

I'll bet ANYONE that her #1 fan is Billy Gilman and he probably wasn't very far away! Wow what a performance and once again, probably not too many dry eyes, including her proud parents. Way to go Abbey!

[TodayImGood]

@survivrs

Billy is standing a little bit behind Abbey's parents, you see it in the end when the crowd gives her a standing ovation, and the camera is pointed at her parents, then you can see Billy on the right side

[survivrs]

@TodayImGood Yeah, I know. I guess I worded my comment wrong. What I meant was that Billy doesn't get too far away from her because he cares about her so much. Does that make a little more sense? Cuz I know where Abbey and her parents are at other times and when he is singing one of his songs, he winks and makes a little wave to her. He is a sweetie. Now that he's in his 20's, he seems to still be a sweetie!! And I love his songs, especially the one from the telethon where the candles are at.

[TodayImGood]

@survivrs

oh sorry, I misunderstood :) english isn't my first language so that could be the reason, thank you very much for explaining though :)

Billy and Abbey are both amazing :) Glad you like them too!

[survivrs]

@TodayImGood It's all fine :)

[sassyoutlets]

she has a fly on her hand lol adorable

[mrbenzo1]

wow, she is very talented.

[hisbaby1987]

[genbfye]

[95n96girl]

I think tht was on the camera

[honeybunches1231]

at the end shes like hey yall i am trying to say something so stop! lol but she is sooooooooo cute

[thechloster]

anyone else noticed the fly on her arm haha! shes awesome! some more training and she'll be incredible

[fjdownes]

What a beautiful little girl. I saw her last year singing with Billy Gilman and it was so moving. She is a sweetheart and I wish her the very best.

[mrsevans1000]

Man, I haven't watched the telethon for a few years, Jerry isn't looking so hot anymore. Getting old I guess? The little girl is fantastic though!

[Aidooosh]

well he's 83 years old and he's had several surgeries and illnesses. I still think he looks well and he's still funny

[mrsevans1000]

83??? I had no idea he was that old. I watched him 40 years ago when I was only 10.

[TheBlakeful]

This girl is GREAT!!!! I have also seen Wicked and that is a FANTASTIC musical! But this young lady NAILED it! Fantastic good!

[lovemichaelguthrie]

how old is she?:)

[Maskedman1951]

Abbey is a special gift from God. She and this song sung by her touched the very heart of me. May her life be filled with joy and happiness.

[EmiliieVlogs]

Soo wonderfull :)

[cmcb09]

How sweet, and Jerry was so cute with her. I don't agree with everything the man does, but i'll give him one thing he has done great things for Muscular Distraphy. Long may you reign Jerry, i always look forward to your telethons :)
