This is a slide show I made advertising Hollie Steel's album that came out last May. Hollie is wonderful child soprano from Great Britain. Although some may prefer the warm, rich, woman-like voice of Jackie Evancho, Hollie exhibits a pure, clear, and light voice that represents her young age of 12 whilst retaining a certain beauty about it that is hard to come across these days. If you haven't heard of her and are interested I would look up her singing O Holy Night, The Music of the Night, and O Mio Babbino Caro and stay away from her BGT performances, which are hardly representational of her true talent.

@bparno You're welcome :) I wish more people with Hollie's and Jackie's talent were discovered

I apologize for the "crap" remark. Hollie is a gutsy, wonderful performer. What I meant was that, why post about Hollie Steel in an area that is primarily about Jackie Evancho. The two cannot be compared. Hollie, as is Jackie, is in a league of her own. Each is excellent. I just wish people would post about Hollie in her area not Jackie's. Why would I go over to video clips about Hollie and post about Jackie. I would not out of comon courtesy.

Hollie is sweet and I like her, but Jackie blows me away.

@cureloms I like Jackie a lot too. Her voice warms me from the toes up :) But, for me, there's something about Hollie's voice that I find so wonderfully beautiful. I can't quite describe it. It may be the sweetness and joy, the beauty and clarity, oh I don't know. I think her and Jackie could end wars together :)
