Sarah Brightman's voice is sometimes TOO overpowering and she becomes shrill. Jackie, on the other hand is always soothing and pleasant to hear no matter what she's singing. She's pure magic.
@FlierFrank172 Yes, Sarah has become like a real opera singer that is a screeching, vibrating hag. Plus, Sarah got behind in the music, you can easily see this and as she tries desperately to recover because AGT speeded up the tempo. It is a very slow tempo if you listen to Jackie's Prelude to a Dream CD. Jackie kept up and saved the piece for Sarah. She should think Jackie for saving her ass.
COME ON Piers!!! ..."ALMOST hold her own"?!! I've heard that performance at least 6 times (literally!) and Jackie WAS the LEAD singer, and it wasn't hard to hear it either!
@Royalchess1 You are right!! Yes, Piers said wrong and he would admit it. So would Webber. They both know Jackie's angelic and pure voice and sing technicque has not been heard before. I would like to repeat here, Bach, Charles gounod and Schubert all would love Jackie sing "Ave Maria" and they would smile in heaven because no one else could bring their music to the that part of the world. :))
@Royalchess1 Yes, Piers was such a twit! On AGT he was astounded by Jackie and now he is saying such crap to this Weber...who seems almost ready for the grave by the way.
@chonesong I would say it's going down for them my self I would not spend my hard money to go see any other opera singer just Jackie to me the others would sound like someone just steps on a dog tail.
I didn't get the impression that Webber even listened to Evancho at this point, so I can understand his reluctance to put forth any opinion on her, though Piers pushed hard for it (for his own promotional ends, I'm sure). Too bad for Mr. Webber, as he's missing out on a treat. He's probably not wanting to see anything his Ex is doing, even if it means missing that wonderful duet between Sarah and Jackie.
@danekjovax Yeah Webber how did you let Sarah get away from you??? You must be very stupid in personal relationships and matters of the heart. I hope you are enjoying that ugly sow you then married.
wonder where Andrew Loyed Webber was going with "I'm a little bit worried about pie esue..." If he heard her sing he shouldn't be worried at all! Jackie's version is the best I've heard. ...I saw the end of this on TV. Peirce Morgan actually said, "I hope she does well; it will make me look better," without any hint of irony or humor at all. He can not be more full of himself.
@camycamo4 I suppose I should have let this run a few seconds more. Webber wasn't referring to Jackie's Pie Jesu but another who was singing it with a dog. When Piers brought up Jackie, Webber was too quick to change the subject back to himself, hence the Pie Jesu comment.
....nice goin webber.

When Piers was talking to Jackie and David he sad that Jackie held her
own with Sarah. Then he talks to this guy and sad she almost held her own.
Piers is a typical CNN jerk you can not trust what they say.

As many, I believe, are probably noticing; since September, 2010, all the opera
singers stats are either going down because all their fans are off listening to
Miss Evancho or they're going up because so many people are coming to
listen to opera now that Miss E. is singing it...I'm one of those.

@jimjosh64 Yes. In regards to Jackie Evancho, the story (seemingly) will always be about Piers Morgan (and his discovering her). Meh.
