Ragtime - Your Daddy's Son by Heather Traska

[jYSSIQUAH]

Beautiful..you really did this justice

[Erythia806]

Omg, girl you are so amazing. I'm left here speechless. Wow cannot even describe your talent.

[CevanDeadly51N5]

where did you get the sheet music for this song?

[CevanDeadly51N5]

cried. you....I love you. so...so much

[KawaHato]

and you give me goosebumps once again. ahhh you are sooo good!!

[ninepplsfavegay]

so how did you do at states?



[YoItsJourdan]

Oh my god, that was incredible.

I'm so jealous! Nevada's Solo & Ensemble's only allow classical pieces to be performed. There is no musical theatre division. :( It's a shame really, because I know that the competition would be BRUTAL.

[crazyphan18]

The only thing that bugs me is the editing...just a straight shot of this would have perfect..YOU are stunning! subscribed! Simpy beautiful...cry every time i see this!

[theyouthless]

i watched it a fifth time and you've officially evoked tears. now i know why i have no talent, you took it all.

[theyouthless]

i can't even with this. it's probably the best thing i've watched on youtube in a very long time. you should really, really stick to singing musical theatre. it showcases your voice better than other genres, your voice is just so powerful when you sing pieces like this where you really get to show both your vocal range and emotional range. please do some spring awakening. or maybe even some kerrigan and lowdermilk (not her way or not a love story, perhaps).

[ShaneAlanBradley]

this is great, i would love to hear you sing a spring awakening song, i think you would sound so great. you have so much talent! i have a youth theater company, that i design and act for in california, and we kind of branch out and take an artistic approach to older shows and then take on some of the newer ones to, but your voice is so unique... your great, props to you!

[selinkay]

Honey, you belong on Glee!!

[theyouthless]

@selinkay no, she belongs on a stage. glee is a joke anymore. she deserves to be showcased, not stuck singing a power ballad or two every other four episodes without a real plot behind it.

[mybrothersinaband]

Gosh you are amazing and have an incredible voice and you put a perfect amount of emotion in this song. awoeifjapoaiwejfapowie

[kikimariewashere]

I was crying... You are always so emotionally connected with the songs you sing... I definitely have to say I look up to you.

[tonyoutterside]

Wow that was incredible! It is such a beautiful song and your interpretation is stunning, towards the end when you say 'forgive me' i gave me goosebumps! Well done!

You are amazing. I have heard this song once before and you did a way better job.

[pandagrl1997]

Maybe its just me but you sounded even better than usual in this video. Maybe its because its not so edited or maybe its just because you were so passionate but whatever it was please do more videos like this and post a video of you at state to. you will knock those judges socks off with your talent.
