An incredible vocal by America's angel, Jackie Evancho. She's accompanied by David Foster on piano and Conrad Tao on Violin.

Simply mesmerizing, and beautiful beyond words.

Gawd Amitey! That’s amazing :-)

[Daffynition]

What enormous talent. A gift from God.

Gawd Amitey! That’s amazing :-)

That's only the tip of the iceberg with this young lady. Hers is a once in an era voice.

[Windflier]

What enormous talent. A gift from God.

Indeed. In all my 60 years, I've never heard a voice as uplifting and soul penetrating as Jackie's.

[Bobalu]

Gives me the same goosebumps I get when listening to Pavarotti sing Nessun Dorma.

[JaguarXKE]

No words.

[Windflier]

Speaking of Nessun Dorma...

I hope and pray that she can remain unjaded by the fame and fortune that will come her way.

She is a precious commodity. I pray for her parents.

[PistolPaknMama]

And there's this jewel from Holland. Simply amazing.

If her talent is this enchanting as a girl, just think how beautiful it will be to listen to her as a young woman—say after a decade or so of practice and maturation. Thanks for reminding us.

That girl’s talent is just incredible, but I have not been able to watch her ever since she sang the sacred “Ave Maria” on “Dancing With the Stars” while a pair of dancers performed the most erotic of dances to it.

I was so disappointed that her parents let her be used for such blasphemy. So disgusting.

while the young girl in this video has a beautiful adult voice, the official version of Dark Waltz portrays a medieval setting where a young woman is pursued by what appears to be a rich prince. She leads him to a dark place and then kills him with a bite to his neck. She’s a vampire. Here’s the official video. you’ll want to take a look.

[Tax-chick]

Excellent voice, well-trained technique, but I didn’t enjoy it because of the funny way she pronounced the words.

[Verbosus]

Simply amazing.

[Tax-chick]

I thought that girl was a good vocalist, but the video was banal. Everybody’s doing vampire/Goth styling these days.

Here’s the lyrics.

Play Song
“Dark Waltz”

We are the lucky ones
We shine like a thousand suns
When all of the colour runs together

I’ll keep you company
In one glorious harmony
Waltzing with destiny forever

Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Turning me into the light

Time dances whirling past
I gaze through the looking glass
And feel just beyond my grasp is heaven

Sacred geometry
Where movement is poetry
Visions of you and me forever

Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Turning me into the light

Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Let the dark waltz begin
Oh let me wheel - let me spin
Let it take me again
Turning me into the light

[ckilmer]

just throwing stuff up on a wall ... here is the lyrics & utube to stevie nicks leather and lace

“Leather And Lace”

Is love so fragile
And the heart so hollow
Shatter with words
Impossible to follow
You’re saying I’m fragile
I try not to be
I search only
For something
I can’t see

I have my own life
And I am stronger
Than you know
But I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won’t be walking out the door
Still I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won’t be walking out the door

Lovers forever
Face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me
My lace

You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I’d never want to leave
Sometimes I’m a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I’d get by

Lovers forever
Face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me
My lace

Lovers forever
Face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me
My lace
Take from me
My lace
Take from me
My lace

Opaque at times ...

[Tax-chick]

Sweet, but a little edgy. It didn’t need the vampire shtick.

I haven’t tried singing it yet, not sure I have all the high notes ;-).
