America's Got Talent 2009 Jacob Audition

[katie101addy]

oh my lord! he is amazing! i hope he makes it one day! he seems really good!

:)

[TheSlm419]

ur great!!!

[alonelychild]

I fear for him - that his sister eclipses him, and that causes self-esteem problems and eventually screws him psychologically during teenagehood and young adulthood

[Nisperoazul]

Me encanta su voz pero más aún la expresión de sus ojos.

[cfylon]

That was so so sweetly.

[TheTaminski]

Wow, Jacob, so precious and you will be knockin em dead just like your sis...SUCH BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN AND BLESSED FROM GOD FOR SURE...KEEP A WATCH ON THIS ONE !!! PRECIOUS BOY!!

[LovelessRitsukaAoyag]

DO NOT COMPARE HIM TO HIS SISTER...DIFERENT, HE HAVE HIS VERY OWN TALENT...

[Texican782]

Jacob what ever you do, never allow others to belittle you for your sisters talent. Never begrudge her for it. Be the best you can be for Jacob. You have your own talent. GOD bless.

[Texican782]

Jacob when you smile, it gets into your music. Nice smile, and very very good tone. Don't dread the voice change. Keep practicing, and even the voice change can be a blessing. No matter if your voice seems to crack keep it in shape.

[AngelandEllashow01]

jacob has a lovely voice like his sister jackie

[Delilahdida]

It's all in the eyebrows with Jake!

[theanglevoice12]

how old is jacob now 2012

[twingrl56]

Hey Jacob :o),,, boys have a harder time I think than girls,,, especially during the "voice change". But DON"T give up buddy, because you REALLY have talent. Keep practicing, ok? America really wants to enjoy you and your voice. And also, your sister is amaizing. But so are you! Don't forget ok?

[aneglzabigail]

Wow, hes like a year older then me now. hmmmmmmm, he is sorta cute too. ok im jk, i can sorta sing, i shuld post somethin.

[yuliebc]

Good job, Jacob :)

[bushey26]

Jacob, You have such emotion and have a great voice. Can't wait to hear you in a few more years. Keep up the good job.

[gg2854ok]

I hate the worng title

[harlan808]

This is great

and sweet

i dont know about the angel part ...

keep trying

o:)

[bintlooda]

This family is really blest wih a great voices !! Does any body know if their mother or father has a great voice too ?

[solomonjonathan66647]

this is beatiful 

[MrMikeymeza]

he is the next generaction i cant wate till he is better then JB all wate he already is keep on doing what you do best

[TheLizroark]

you make me cry when you sing i love you. may god be with you and bless you

[bushey26]

Jacob, you made me cry!!! Such a wonderful voice!

[kjoysinger92]

It would probably help if his sister wasnt singing phantom of the opera at 7.... thats gotta be a hard hit against him especially if e gets compared to her for any competitions or anything...

[mgamer327]

awww he wants to be a singing star just like his sister. so cute but i'm sure you'll find your very own niche one day jacob!

[MRABSE3rdJr]

I believe that Jacob is going to be a great leader someday! His spirit of truth and love are very powerful! Thank you so much for sharing.

[o9ne3ir7]

Jacob, You have an amazing voice! Never stop going after the stars!

[TantoRodriguez]

i wish i stayed in choir when i was young cause this is what i kinda sounded like when i was young.If you stay with it you will be there,keep it up an we will be buying your cd`s.nice voice.

[RainbowwAireanna]

I sung this song In chorus in elementary too!! (: Good job little guy! You have a beautiful voice!

[steelmessi]

Awww...Mannn he made me cry too!!!!! Usually it's his sister that's makes me feel like "I just heard an angel singing"!! Very well done Jacob!!!!!

[Kadda1234]

I think he might become better than his sister- there is feeling in his voice his sister lacks completely.

[507almy]

hmmm... wonder if he'll finish as tenor- or pull out to baritone. good luck kid! that change is a booger!

[watchtheduck1]

I love this boy!

[Angelheart0499]

i promise you, when you make a CD album(i hope you do) ill be one of the first to buy it ^-^

[TheHorseNinja]

...wow

He would be about twelve or thirteen now, right?

That's incredible.

[NoseDripProductions]

This kid looks and sings like the kid on Polar Express.

[annak926]

Jacob you are wonderful and you have a big heart, I love you already,

[Menifeegal]

This is one of the sweetest performances I have ever heard. His sweet spirit shines through. Love it!

[FerventInPrayer]

Jacob...you have what it takes...the beauty and humility and the gentle spirit. Whenever you sing...make sure you stand. I find eating an apple will always clear my vocal folds. I really hope and pray there is more to hear after this video!!!

[rlgirou]

All he needs is confidence in his singing. Jacob has a great voice and he and his sister harmonize very well. Maybe if they perform together for a while he will come into his own. Won't be the first brother sister team that started that way and won't be the last. This family has unbelievable musical talent and 2 kids that will go far.

[nght07]

Beautiful just the way it is. If you are concerned about your voice being small; just get in front of a 1000 Watt amplifer like the vastly overated Coldplay does.

[LovesickE7]

I THINK that he has potential but lack emotion while performing. Hey little guy, if you enjoy singing, if you enjoy the lyrics, put you heart on it, make the lyrics your own words. Then I guess, we will see the difference.

[heettreet]

not agt ,,, nice kid ,but weak voice ,, this is a scam

[BrittneyConnell]

Such a sweet child and voice! I'd love to see some newer videos. :)

[2310Peck]

@euenodn2-Shut up!

[buffyxangelll]

Amazing Jacob! what's this song called?

[bushey26]

your so very welcome!!! You have a beautiful voice and you are adorable. I think you will go very far!

[bieberfever123000]

Try for agt X u are fantastic .. i am younger than u and i know u could do it. x

[RhysYeomansLive]

Really nice!

[mlp633]

Jacob has alot of potential but needs more confidence in his voice. I suggest voice lessons, because he obvioulsy has talent as his sister does. He just needs to let it come forth and not worry about what others say.

[euenodn2]

If its not AGT don't pretend it is to get hits

[ROanica]

Among so many negative comments from unintellectual individuals I applaud people with very high IQ and taste in music to support and appreciate this young inspired singers gratitude to you......

[heettreet]

@ROanica yes he's young ,, but not inspired ,, he is ordinary at best

[dannihill2]

so touching

[josthebomb]

Runs in the family. :)

[crossmyhome]

I love you voice! GOD BLESS YOU!

[forestdweller01]

Alchemistfan01 here......your voice is so beautiful

[ALQCorvus7]

<3



[omarhbu]

hes good and he has alot of guts



[melissabalducci]

He is precious!!!

[salzwell25]

Lovely, well done Jacob. I'm sure your parents are very proud of you. I wish I could sing so well.

[jeannetteviersbrooks]

Jacob, you are a very talented young man. I just listened to your other video, that has comments disabled. Wow! You have timing, pitch, originality, all your own. I can see a future for you in music. Please let us hear more from you.

[mal1067ry]

Jacob, that was beautiful

[dreamerofnc]

Well, from what I see Securityman, you have some very talented children, and it isnt for me to say but id love to see him spend time with a coach and I can see him being even more amazing but I think you knw that already :-) so its up to him maybe it isnt his dream and if not then well thats his choice. Best of wishes to you all. I got Jackies CD this year and hoping for more!

[maryannseager]

so sweet...and kind...

[SuperHellreaper]

i sang this song for 5th grade all state choir in Eugene! Very nice(:

[sportluvr2662]

hes really good!! not the best but amazing for an 11 year old!

[jeffsbitch18]

jacob has a very shy voice and hasn't yet got much experience but with more practice he will become a very handsome and very amazing young man when he gets older.

[happyharriet100]

rricharson55 has a great idea. Cant wait for the Jake and Jackie show!

[happyharriet100]

Great song,wonderful lyrics . Who wrote it?

[joellegee]

I cant beleive your ten in this video , UNBELEIVEABLE !x your great

[ikilledmymother16]

Is he Jackie Evancho's brother ?

[happyharriet100]

@ikilledmymother16  yes, older brother. a very talented family

[ikilledmymother16]

@happyharriet100 Thank you for the information. Yes it's true, it's a very talented family! How I'd like to have one like them.

[TheTeamjacob2000]

i accully think thats bad i like the others but not this one

[rrichardson55]

I bet when he gets older & a little more work, he'll be Fantastic which then I can't wait when he & Jackie become a duet like Donnie & Marie Osmond! That's going to be Amazing!!!!!

[LUCAX651]

Jacob you have a voice of an Angel and I just listened to a little glimpse of heaven!!.

You have amazing tone and pure gentle clarity infused with a wonderful sprinkling of uniqueness in that fab voice my friend!!. Reach for the stars and never stop because you with be a megastar asap. Forget about the rest, Jacob is the very best !!!!. Love and peace from israel.

[LBTweenLifeTips]

@LUCAX651 i agree with you sooo much and i wanted to know if you knew what song he was singing

[abbeykroeter]

Wow he has a great voice too. I recognize the "shyness". I was just like that when I was young, singing for church, or for relatives... I wanted to sing, but I didn't assume it would be liked. I just wasn't sure. Now I'm 43 and wish I was simply encouraged without too much drama; I now have a very deep voice, and wish I could have performed at least until I was 18 when I started to lose my upper range. Friends thought I was good, but I didn't sing for anyone else. Please sing all the time Jacob

[monkeydoodle9]

My heart just melts his voice so so sweet!

[monnalitta]

What a blessing to be a parents of those children: talented, kind, adorable - real angels!

It took a lot of love, wisdom, and labor to bring them up that way!

I Wish all the the blessing and God's protection to you and yours precious children

[Sizebby]

Oh WOW you're so right @security4me2 about his singing being so sweet.....! That one went STRAIGHT to my HEART and brought me into a bit of tears....

He might not (yet) be as Bocelli-ready as his sister is but you know what he's got this EMOTION in his singing... and I love his little smiles at the end of his sentences...

He might sound a bit shy but I don't think it has anything to do with the camera cause I see him looking straight into it - I was ABSORBED. It's ADDICTIVE!! ^_^

BRAVOOO!!!!!<3

[TheLadyanwyn]

@Sizebby Speaking of Bocelli, Josh Groban sounds more like him as his gifts and talents grow.

[gethighflyhigh]

He has an amazing voice to be so young!!

[kryticom53]

aww he has a beautiful voice and the sweetest smile! I love this kid :P

[asantep7]

Sweetness is not common in the world these days - but he sings sweetly from a sweet heart. You can see he's a happy child. This video is inspirational.

[Kentertainer]

I'm a couple years late to the party, but this sweetly touching tune had me crying happy tears and reaching for the Kleenex box!

[missmerl]

I think he needs to sing a more upbeat song, something with soul so he can let it all out!!

[mbsrwsnws]

WOW i can't wait till Jacob conquers his fears he got such a good voice

as 4 the Hatez haha as Justin Bieber say love em 4 it drives them crazy and we'll hav the last laugh

[postalinVT]

To all the bozo's out there; This kids got TALENT. He's young and will mature.

How in Gods name can you criticize a youngster trying to entertain folks.

God forgive the lot of you.

[TheCellifish]

he has such a sweet voice! its so amazing!

i think when he grows up and if he still has an amazing sweet voice he could get a sweet girl.

:)

[xoxocelina844]

i think your really good

[BriannaNickerson]

Keep up the amazingness Jacob! <3 xx I'm a fan ;)

[jessboys1]

you sound like a girl

[titussenlair]

We like when you sing MERCI

Les Loupiots

[Chrissiela]

very nice and love the song!

[SavannahWeaversMusic]

why did you say it was an agt audition when it isnt?

[MiamiRaven13]

Jacob has a small voice but his gentleness is utterly magical. It is very moving and I pray he will choose to develop his talent. He has perfect pitch and great timing. I wish you and your family abundant health and happiness!

[shannybannydoodleday]

He has the voice of an angel

[xBirdyx1]

[CHEEESSSE01]

[shannybannydoodleday]

He is brilliant

[meldbntyn30]

[cupcakechickie]

[LoveIsPoison14]

just one word.... stunning

[tomtogirl]

all your children are so good at singing :)

[theamysmith4]

i love how he wants 2 b like jackie!:Dxxxxxxx

[chonesong]

Thank you for giving us your songs, Mr. Evancho.

You have an amazing life and your future is

unspeakably bright if my hunch is correct.

I think you did it by taking family seriously;

a much unsung opportunity which you are

curing for us !

[Reedley09Dman]

That note at 2:20 is so low and good!

[Reedley09Dman]

precious

[celticsgirls1144]

Ur soo good!

[cesarkof]

Just one word... and it's CUTEEE!!! x3 hahaha.... as talented as his sister (y)

[thrustingkitten]

awwww soo cute..

[jessbrown97]

boy you are AHH MAZIN!

[perso18]

What incredibly sweet voice, face, and words... people, please listen to the words and think...

[Bbccee100]

Rrrr I love u x

[jingram18]

very very very good.

[jgarland30]

he is awesome



[jgarland30]

he

[sassy1506]

This is really good, he'll get over the shyness.

[simnesan]

Thank you Jacob. That was a song with a wonderful message. You can sing and carry a tune well but you may want to develope you talents to a higher degree by taking voice lessons. This would help you to overcome your basic shyness and teach you to breath better as you sing. Thank you again Jacob and thank you to Mike and Lisa for allowing Jacob to sing for us on You Tube.

[ShilohStables1]

he is so cute , oh my god<3

amazing(:

[kimselsr]

Sweet and magnificent.

[Qwinkly3]

I like this one much better than 3 others I've heard from him. Those 3 Beatles tunes were a bit too low for him. It's tough finding a song with the right range. And it's harder for boys because they don't want to be heard singing high - at least not in America. That's a real shame. (Too much football and other sports, and no love for the arts here.)

[ShaylaGrace]

good job!never ever give upp:)

[AngelBRock]

Beautiful, Jacob! Keep singing!!!

[AlexDjumic]

whats the title of the song plz i like it so much if anyone knows

[minilatinname]

He is wonderful all the same as Jackie is. They are both very sweet and loving children and all of the Evancho children have a very fond love of music. I hope to hear more from all of them here on youtube and hope everything is going well for the entire Evancho family.

[marialauraalejandra]

could you correct the lyrics below, please? I would like to share with friends:

Are you wondering how you can help the world? / are you wondering how you can make a --- ? / do you wonder what to do? / do you wonder how is to? / do you wonder how a change can start with you? / It starts with kindness, kindness / It comes from deep inside / With kindness / With kindness / Kindness from the heart / Are you wondering how you can help the world?

[marialauraalejandra]

such a beautiful message with such a heavenly voice and sight. thanks for this kind contribution to our world!

[areyouobloxable]

he sound great



[RMarshall5]

Way to go Jacob!! Great job!!!!! :)

[horseloverlove1015]

he sounds so sweet and innocent i love his voice!

[BrownEyedBabiigirl]

Whats the name of the song he's singing? It's beautiful

[priscibm]

He is really good and a very sweet guy!!!

[jdaler]

A little bit of coaching and a sweet clear voice will emerge. I enjoyed listening very much.

[MurryFolt]

Oh man, I feel pathectic now :P

I'm waiting to see if he does get into the acting business, I hear he's good.

[peringefilip]

Thank you dear friend. Wonderful :)

[winter051094]

OMG! SOOO CUTEEE! whats the song he's singing? it sounds great! all of those who post rude/unnecessary comments dont know what the heck they are talking about. great job! :)

[cashisking98]

I never heard/watch Jacob before. Is he related to AMAZING Jackie Evancho? I LOVE HER!!! She's such a gift. Anyway, Jacob is so damn cute and very talented. Please ignore all mean/rude/hateful comments. These people are just jealous.

[Clane9231]

@security4me2 Kudos to Jacob, this really is touching. I know nobody's kids are perfect but if I had to pick some roll models, your kids would be right up there. The Evancho's deserve a High Five for a job well done. Keep up the good work! We need more kids like them. I don't know what you are doing but keep doing it.

[ktmbua]

good voice and good singing but yea i think the voice change can have dreadful effect on such voice but good luck

[Molly9094]

he's just so sweet and hope he has a nice singing career ahead of him

[clairenunavut]

aww he is adorable and sings very good! go on! if you like to sing, then follow your dream, no matter what a bunch of angry casserole-singing youtube wievers can say!

[capscoach]

He should be an Oliver...or even Dodger! I bet he'll be even better (already great) when his voice fully changes.

[larrywillsjr]

@almawells Notice that the username that uploaded this video is Security4me2. It is probably his parents.

[larrywillsjr]

@paolysarai Did I say that I know everything about this child? No, I did not. What I did say is that he doesn't LOOK too happy. Your comment, "OMG! Could you be more stupid?" My answer: Yes, I could.I work with children (meaning I graduated college) and I can tell when children are not happy. My question: OMG! Could you be more stupid? No. **Notices that you made several grammatical errors in your comment.** If you ask me, this family reminds me of the Jackson 5. What does that say?

[security4me2]

@larrywillsjr I think you should go back to school because Jacob is the furthest thing from unhappy. There is a big difference between a bit of camera shyness and sadness. Our children are happier than the majority. We encourage what THEY want to be and not what the parents want for them. Jacob wanted to put this video up not us. As far as the username, I used to own a security business.

[padrak18]

@security4me2 I have worked with a lot of kids this age as well. My impression is that he is from a very loving family with great and loving parents. He is right in the center of the age range where acceptance from peers is paramount however. Thus the reason of the little bit of stage fright he exhibits. As soon as the kids in the audience chimed in he knew he was accepted and had that beautiful smile that only a little boy could have. I think you guys are doing great with your children.

[padrak18]

@security4me2 And to miss paolysarai I say just graduating from college means nothing but a piece of paper. You will improve when you get some real life experience and I don't mean a year or two. To Jacob and Jackie's parents I would say this. Congratulations on a job well done. You have about another 10 years to go though and I think you are on the right track. Kudos to you Mom and Dad.

[RoseAerin]

@security4me2 i don't think larrywillsjr was trying toupset u he was just saying tht he sounded kind of nervous there's no reason to get upset 

[ZenyaSavesRebalya]

@security4me2 I don't want to be rude or anything, but I don't see how it's fair, that you jumped down that persons throat. They had an opinon, and maybe it wasn't one you wanted to hear, but they have a right to have one, without being called stupid. Also, I don't they were implying that they knew him well enough to tell what he was thinking, they just read him facial expressions in a diffrent way than everyone else.

[robb2008]

@larrywillsjr i do agree that in all his videos wheter live or self filmed he doesnt look happy. It may just be camera shyness or maybe he wants to outshine his sister? Either way he doesnt seem like he's very excited about singing.

[cashisking98]

@larrywillsjr Shut up you idiot. No one wants to hear your stupid accusations here on YouTube. Get a life.

[sball244]

@larrywillsjr dumby go back to college idk how u graduated he looks very happy hes just shy

[yazzienta13]

que lindoo!!! :))

[larrywillsjr]

I don't know if I am the only person noticing this, but he doesn't look too happy to be singing. Maybe this isn't what he wants to do. Let him be the child he is!

[paolysarai]

@larrywillsjr OMG! Could you be more stupid?

What do you know? Can not you see there is a shy boy? is not unhappy boy! Do you think that only 3 minutes to see him and know everything about him?

eh, I do not think so

[almawells]

@larrywillsjr EXACTLTY !! I also noticed the same thing. It is as though this little shy, timid, scared kid does not at all enjoy doing what he is doing. I have to wonder if his parents are forcing their child to sing so the parents can spend the money this singer earns...

[elliee03]

@almawells watch his duet to you are my sunshine, and tell me this boy is unhappy

[ny0202]

iS HE EALOUS ABOUT jACKIE? wELL HES GOOD TOO!

[ScientificoPiano]

@ny0202 If I were her siblings, who can all sing very greatly, especially for young boys, I would be very jealous! They all deserve a shot.

[onlyskatesupra]

The whole family should record a cd together. Jackie, Jacob, Zachary, and Rachel. They are extremly good.

[asils4Lisa]

Bravo! Bravo!  Beautiful voice. And he seems to be a very sweet boy too. Very sweet smile.

[diaperedful]

exelent video

[ThePianist2009]

Beautiful! Wonderful Jacob! Keep singing!

What is the name of that song and by who? Please
