Courtney Hadwin “River Deep Mountain High” STAR IN THE MAKING | America's Got Talent 2018 Finale AGT

I usually hate to hear people sing this song, I say why do they hate Tina, but Mrs. Turner herself would be proud of this one. Great job.

[@MickAngelhere]

This girl has more talent than most so called singers today and boy does she give concert

[@joellegreig6955]

You're absolutely correct. Having grown up during the 'Nam era of music, today's music is extremely juvenile. Some instances sound as if I accidentally stepped on my cat's tail. Her voice is smoky, with the capability to sing at different levels. Am I listening to the same young lady? Her uniqueness surpasses all.

The first time I heard Courtney coincidentally here on youtube, my mouth stayed open, and so it is this time. This girl is like a hurricane and I'm sure no one who's ever heard of Courtney Hadwin will forget her. I saw Tina Turner live in a concert in Hamburg 1986 and paid 100 DM at that time for it on the black market - for a Courtney concert today I would immediately put 100 € on the table ... without even thinking for a single moment.

She also shows that a person that is quiet and shy can have so much talent bursting to come out It it wasn't for Simon and his different talent shows there would be a lot of talent gone unreconized..
