  • This song brings me a lot of peace. It makes me forget the sadness and problems in my life. I like it so much.

  • this girl is an inspiration. she is resilient and funny. her voice deserted her as she aged and that must have been devastating to her but she adapted and moved on. compared to other child stars she is amazingly balanced and down to earth. it was good to see her go off the rails for a while, it is healthy and normal for a teenager to do that. why so much hate on you tube?

  • @joanbond001

    Does it matter what her weight is ?????

  • I wish she stuck to classical, changing to 'pop' was a silly move.

  • Because of her, I found the inspiration and courage to really sing out loud.

  • Ghastly!! This is a hymn, a supplication, not a school song. She belts out high notes, swallows up low notes, articulation is terrible, and NO EXPRESSION!!! Her timing is off too - listen to the Amens at the end. They should follow one another right away, but she pauses to create more impact. Listen to Kiri Te Kanawa singing this if you want to hear perfection. Why is such a young person overweight? At least be in shape if you cannot sing.

  • @JoanBond001 LOL. Sounds to me like someone has some pent up aggression they need to expend.

  • @rabadooda

    My thoughts too xD But what a meanie to take it out on Charlotte Church!! haha

  • Me encanta como la interpreta, excelente. Saludos desde la ciudad de Valparaíso, Chile, Subamérica. Algún día la cantaré igual o parecido..

  • I CAN'T STAND HER JAW WARBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why are there so many haters on YouTube when it comes to music: but I don't let the trolls, lowlifes, fools, and dirtbags get away with a damn thing when they diss Charlotte, Sara Brightman, Nana Mascouri (!!!) and the great Laura Branigan (RIP).

    To hell with them all.

  • Proud to be Welsh :)

  • If you love your mom repost this to 20 other videos. A girl didnt so her mom died 365 days later. I'm sorry I had to repost this because I love my mom. -3

  • @MsDiva1018 moron.

  • that's just it, you should NEVER compare them just enjoy the different people's versions for what they are. AMAZING.

  • I find it hard to compare this version to others because of how different the tune is, but nevertheless she has a good voice.

  • thegoodteacher(dot)com

    

  • @JreynoldsC1010

    If you don't like it, go away.

  • WOW!

  • 0:30 cum face

  • @codewahn pedo

  • @tissetatten you are an idiot and need to learn the definition of pedo

  • Dude I can sing along to this.

    She's only a soprano.....

  • @KaleidoscopeOfSound Upload a video, and let people like me hear it. Do it better than her, if she is "only" a soprano.

  • beautiful I'm going to sing in high school where I am and all I get bn have less acute the last lot of work is costing me u_u

  • Why is her tongue blue?

  • @shizay74x

    It's from the blue light all around her. It's shining on her tongue.

  • @shizay74x I *think* that's just the weird lighting. I hope. ^_~

  • @shizay74x She is British.

  • @poluchka29 She is Welsh!

  • @shizay74x from eating out a smurfs asshole! :D

  • @JoanBond001

    I am not at all fond of her singing and I would agree that this is "ghastly", but don't bring her weight into this - there's enough pressure in the media nowadays for unhealthy thinness

  • @JoanBond001 I listened to the implementation of Kiri Te Kanawa and found that singing it as you write, you should: "This is an expressive song, a heartfelt prayer, a supplication.", but very dramatic and does not like prayer.

  • @JoanBond001 You are such a mean person.

  • @JoanBond001 mean people suck! This girl is talented and beautiful, and rich! Are you? Didnt think so!

  • @JoanBond001 At least she can choose to lose weight, should she so choose, but you, on the other hand, will be a mean spirited, untalented, critical and, I would guess, an ugly bitch until the day you die!

  • @JoanBond001 The only thing that is Ghastly is your vile comments coming out of a vile mouth attacthed to a vile person and if you think she is fat on this in this video the you need your vile eyes tested just because she is not a size zero it doesn't make her fat now crawl back under your stone and hope one day someone will come and remove you from that lonely little life of your, maybe your mother loved you !

  • My wife's favorite song here.

  • Idolized her SO much as a child. Idolize her now. She had the most remarkable voice, I could listen to this for ages. She is flawless.

  • ABI/ AVE MARIA video soooooooo cute

  • And her vowels are quite stretched.

  • She does seem to be forcing the high notes a little, sometimes punching them out.

  • JESUS ALWAYS FORGIVES. AMEN 

  • @FRANCECHILD what did amen keep

    doing wrong?

  • muy lindo..

  • Beautiful~~

  • I have loved this opera song since I was little, I first heard it on a school trip to York, and we went into York Minster and heard the Nuns sing it, I thought it was the most beautiful piece of music ever, the Nuns werte so soothing and sounded wonderful, Loved this piece ver since.

  • I just love her

  • THANK GOD FOR YOU

  • Would have loved to have been there.

  • horroso

  • beautiful..

    

  • eso es ser una verdadera cantante , sueño con llegar a esas notas ♥ is perfect

  • awesome im speechless

  • i love what the dude does from 2:20 - 2:24

  • Just beautiful

  • as to call this concert please look

  • this is asstounding but Vitas is better

  • Personally, I think she needs to keep her mouth open in a more "o" shape. That's what my instructor tells me, at least. But there is no denying that she is truly and AMAZING singer.

  • dios mio canta hermosoo.........un angel

  • She has good support when she thinks about it, mainly only on the sustained notes. If she didn't keep her vowels horizontal the whole time this would be absolutely phenomenal. The high A is beautiful. (:

  • marie heard your voice from where she is =).

  • Um Anjo!!!

    Joaquim Anjo

  • An Angel

  • see ave/abi maria. so cute

  • 533 people have been spayed or nuetered

  • Oh, so if a "Comment" gets too Many "Negative votes", it is "Removed". Or if Someone doesn't Agree , it is marked as "Spam"- Typical Lib' Intolerance. Someone asked ME Where I got Info' re Her bn 'Whacked' on booze- RIGHT HERE on utube! TRUE?? I Don't Know. LOT of B.S. n 'Fake' Videos Maybe.(?)

  • I wish she sang more like this now....

  • sigue a la Virgen María en twitter: @mgraciaplena la cuenta oficial de la Madre de Dios en twitter

  • B-E-A-UTIFUL - I LOVE THE POWER SHE HAS

  • TT TT QE Hermoso!!

  • Comment removed

  • THIS is music not the shit all the ppl r listen now in days... Lady caca and all those

  • omg this is ear rape. horrible voice.

  • @IIIEX7R3M3III I don't think she had a horrible voice. It was a nice one, but not made for classical music in my opinion. Her technique was very poor. She brought a lot of people to appreciate classical music and I am grateful to her for that. She's not my cup of tea though. I am more a fan of Kathleen Battle, Sumi Jo, Beverly Sills, Diana Damrau, Renee Fleming, etc. Are you an opera fan as well? :)

  • She's great. As good as this is, it is far from being her best performance.

  • i got into classical mussic after hearing charlotte church on pbs ,after that first time i was hooked ,i can listen to her all day

  • Wish to hear this song again someday....somewhere in far corner of Heaven..Amen

  • gifted singer , but i think for this song it has to be a higher pitch , she's kinda husky

  • beautiful work I love her with all my heart

  • For some reason she looks a lot like Sarah Brightman in this performance

  • I wrote an essay about her right now. THANK YOU TEACHER FOR MAKING ME FEEL SO DAMN GAY! :OOOO

  • that's really beatifull *-*

  • Is she tearing up at the end? How sweet

  • i like most her version. She's really good singer, and her voice have something... special. <3

  • Magnifique.

  • Can Only pray that Jackie Evancho Doesn't turn out as Messed up n drugged up n Whacked Out as This Young Woman has!

  • @Tktter You do write nonsense. Enjoy only. Do not cast judgement.

  • @Tktter yep hope so...the pressure of success is not something easy to deal with or bear with...Jackie Evancho is a rarest of rare talents.

  • @Tktter I have followed Charlotte's life and career as an ardent fan for many years. I have never seen or heard any information about her being involved in drugs or whacked out. May I ask where you get your information?

  • @Tktter -----who are to judge.everbody unwinds somehow,and you cant believe all you read in the press.

    live and let live

  • @Tktter She's a respectable married woman, and she never took drugs, just a few booze binges.  Peace.

  • @Tktter just a qestion , clearly i dont know how she ended up to be messed up how did that happen and why ? and what did she do .

  • @Tktter Actually, I dont think she's turned out bad at all. She did some drinkin but no more than most other teenagers really. Considering her level of fame at a young age, it seems to me she's grown up to be a quite down to earth, normal lass. She never became stick thin, or behaved in a diva way. She has put her career on the back burner so she can be a good mother. She seems sound

  • @Tktter

    i heard she is married and has children

  • @Tktter Quite correct. Unfortunately, success goes to their heads and, in the process, their common sense goes out their anuses. I suspect Evancho WILL suffer the same fate.... After all, money can do a lot of [evil] things...

  • @Tktter she isn't messed up or drugged out... she has 2 children now and lives hapily in a big house in the country :)

  • @Tktter wat do you mean

  • You can't top the best, and the best is Charlotte Church.

  • like all welsh people, think they can sins, shame they can't work hard.

  • This is crazy. I just finished watching Charlotte Church sing The Prayer with Josh Groban. I only say it's crazy because I watched this video when it aired on TV. I was 7 years old. All I can remember is my parents calling me into the room saying "get in here! Listen to her voice!" About 3 years later I saw her, Julie Andrews, and Christopher Plummer in concert. Now, remembering when Josh Groban first started, it's crazy to look back at all this and just think, "wow, I was just a child back then

  • Pretty poor actually!!!

  • @Apollogranforte Agree!

  • OH.My.God. I love this girl <3 I was mesmerised the whole way through. and when she hits the high A @ 2:12 well, I'm not ashamed at all that I had to wipe a tear from my eye. I've said it a million times, there is no more beautiful sound on earth than that of the female voice in song.

  • Such a great voice & such funny faces :-)

  • Such a beautiful voice. I have listened to many versions of this song and this in my opinion is the best.

  • @avrilhogarth Leontyne Price!

  • @avrilhogarth i agree! 

  • @avrilhogarth Not really. I like it too but there are far better singers of this aria.

  • That's one hell of a chest she has, for singing I mean

  • muy bonito y todo pero ¿pero porque todas las cantantes de opera tienden a cantar asi?, si escucho esta version en radio, no sabria quien es!, creo que un cantante para tocar el corazon debe tener su estilo propio primero y definitivamente esta muchacha no lo tiene!

  • Marie Upshinsky

    #401 Parnassus

    SF June 1982

  • She blows the beautiful song up she should get some

    Training !!! Not KIDDING !!!!¡¡¿'

  • Jackie Evancho blows her away!!!!

  • @DSTAUBIN1A small group of Europeans, (British ) don't wish too believe the truth, or that Jackie Evancho, is so much more talented, then Ms. Church.

  • @MrJeffreydunson

    YUP! You couldn't have said it better...Jackie is a true angle...however I really had to see if Ms. Church was what she was cracked up to be...and I'd have to say no. Her voice is aged.

  • @scarletwillow15 Not too be disrespectful toward, the above artist, but .... it's no secret that smoking & drinking, shall take its toll on the cords, sooner or later... ( i'm not in show biz .. so. )

  • wow cant beat yer welsh

    my god what a total angel

  • Listen to Schubert's original piece, and Luciano Pavarotti's performance in the 1994 Three Tenors concert are much better than this. She is super talented though! Beautiful voice.

  • Comment removed

  • OMG I just saw some of her actual photos and listened some of her songs and I died .. what a waste of talent :/

  • What version of Ave Maria is this ? 

  • gotta see abi/ave maria video...so cute

  • Nice tone. Bad vowels.

  • buna =))

  • I really cannot stand her voice. I thought maybe it would have grown me after having studied singing for longer, but no. It's not even just her technical issues, it's just the sound in general. And she is not always on pitch. I don't understand how so many people become so famous for singing when they cannot even get the notes right all the time. Each to their own I guess!

  • @chocoholicchic92 It is called emotion.

  • @c00per69 But it shouldn't be just one aspect of the performance that people go "wow" about. It should be the whole package. Her technique was not up to it, she should not have been singing songs like that at her age. Emotion is not everything, although it is very important.

  • Tolking’s Elvish Translation of Ave Maria

    Aman Maria eva manel ar Yesus Kal ar Pooka I aran eva erain,Aman Maria eva manel ar Yesus Kal ar Pooka I aran eva erain,Aman Maria eva manel ar Yesus Kal ar Pooka I aran eva erain,Aman Maria eva manel ar Yesus Kal ar Pooka I aran eva erain

  • i remember listening to her when i was eleven

  • NO ME GUSTO

    DONT LIKE THIS VERSION

  • Sumi Jo is better.

  • A talent that is now wasted

  • What a beautiful voice...what is she doing now??? Still performing?

  • @tamara719 Her last single was called "Logical World" and was released early this year from her album "Back to scratch" which is amazing, It's mostly accoustic kind of stuff.

  • You have made some keen observations regarding the singer's delivery, and projections ( stage ), but, I can not judge, whether or not the level of their commitment to the psalms is on the same level as there talents are, or as you say,at this stage of their careers. But, i can and will say that Jackie Evancho, lacks nothing, as far as, her audience is concerned when she sings to them. The world audience has remarked that she is more like the opera diva, Maria Callus !!! NOT Ms. Church.

  • @MrJeffreydunson Do you mean Maria CallAs?!  I really don't think you can compare Jackie, or any 11 year old to Callas.

  • @mrsspanner14 The World has already done so !!! Jackie Evancho, has become well-known in Russia, as we view this video.

  • This little sweet girl grew up to be a complete arsehole. She said Amercia deserved to have 9/11 happen. Hope her voice goes on her.  Evil bitch.

  • @glebe3047

    nice to see you're enjoying the music. :)

    forget what she said. you gonna listen to everyone who insults you? how about the people who actually did 9/11. i'm not backing what she said, and although that's not the best thing to have someone say about your nation, you probably shouldn't let it get to you. that point it 9/11 happened, whether you deserved it or not, so getting mad at her for thinking you deserved it isn't going to do anything. cheers. :)

  • @glebe3047 She did not say America deserved 9/11 she said she didn't know why everybody was saying the fire fighters were hero's whe they were just doing their jobs and how old was she when she said that???

    You're still going on about something a CHILD said and opologised for over a decade ago...

  • " JACKIE EVANCHO "

  • @MrJeffreydunson Jackie Evancho, while a precocious singing talent, can't come even close to the purity of Charlotte Church's voice at this stage in her (Charlotte's) career; and certainly lacks the depth of emotion and commitment to this psalm that is so obvious as you watch Charlotte's eyes, her gaze, the glow of her face. Charlotte is singing to God; Jackie is singing to an audience.

  • @mermew WELL SAID!

  • @mermew You are wrong Listen to Jackie's singing this with Tim Janis both good!!

  • she used to be so classy and sing so wonderfully. now she sings pop and dresses trashy I would say. sold out. sad.

  • maravilhoso, tudo combina, a voz,a musica e belissima cantora Charlotte, parabéns. beijos para ela. :)

  • LINDO! FICO EMOCIONADO AO OUVIR ESTE HINO: AVE MARIA, CHEIA DE GRAÇAS, O SENHOR É CONVOSCO, BENDITA SOIS VÓS ENTRE AS MULHERES. SANTA MARIA, MÃE DE DEUS, ROGAI POR NÓS, PECADORES, AGORA E NA HORA DE NOSSA MORTE, AMÉM. ETERNAMENTE AGRADECIDO PELAS GRAÇAS RECEBIDAS.

  • @carameluz you're a jackie evancho fan aren't you?

  • At least she's not stoned here as she was in various other appearances.

  • THE BEST I'VE  EVER HEARD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

    GLORIA PADILLA, HI

  • a lovely voice whic at times misses. but her voice is a pleasant backgroubd.

  • i believe she is about losing her voice due to incorrect singing, but she is a beautiful girl with rich parents, she can afford presenting herself to the world, but i don't want to disappoint her, she needs to change things to be able to sing further, sorry, that is my advise and opinion

  • she has a good voice and overall the performance is very nice, but her singing is a bit off sometimes. I think it is due to certain vocals she hasn't mastered technically, which might not necessarily diminish the performance as a whole, but one can definitely hear she hits certain notes a tiny bit below where they should be. but I like her style. it is difficult to sing soprano parts and remain cliche-free, natural, I speak from experience. she has done a good job.

  • Muito bom,relembra a única hora feliz do meu casamento!!!!!!!!!!!
