Emma Kok, age 14, head to head with Sting singing Fragile

Beautiful beautiful

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one Drying in the color of the evening sun Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away But something in our minds will always stay Perhaps this final act was meant To clinch a lifetime's argument That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could For all those born beneath an angry star Lest we forget how fragile we are On and on the rain will fall Like tears from a star like tears from a star On and on the rain will say How fragile we are how fragile we are

Beautiful blend of talents.

Roger C, I forgot the most important thing to say and that is : Thank you that you made this, it's perfect. I have the same feelings like you about Sting and Emma, exactly the same. And it gives me a feeling of peace all over me, when I feel sad or restless I listen to this song of Sting and Emma and the world opens for me with peace and all the beautiful things in life to live for and to fight for to keep it so beautiful as it is. Take care for yourselves and your loveones and also let's try to make the world a little better again and save the world and pray for peace. Thank you Roger C, I hope many people see your video❤❤❤

Thank you for your kind words. I made the Geleen and Fred and Friends videos firstly for my own benefit, but I decided, given I had made them, I could add some extra bits of information about Emma or the performance that some viewers may not know and maybe someone else might enjoy them. If just one person watches and enjoys them then that is good enough for me. I am not looking to build any kind of channel. But I do think Emma deserves to be heard and her story accurately presented for by as many people as possible. The first video was prompted by my trip from the UK to Geleen in The Netherlands earlier this month where I had a front row seat to see Emma. I made a video simply because I wanted a record of my experience. I know the audio wasn't so great on my phone but that was all I had. I was surprised it came out so well because I held my phone in my lap, I didn't want to watch Emma through my phone - I went there to see her live. Similarly the Fred and Friends video is quite poor in that it is comprised of nearly 60 video, audio, photo clips that I edited together as best I could (it took a long time) but it was the only way I could get to see Emma's whole performance end-to-end. I figured that if I liked it then maybe someone else would like it too so I decided to post it. I thought it would get a lot of negative comments because of my editing but fortunately it hasn't. These other videos will have been seen by many already, but they allow me to tell a little of Emma's story as far as I know it, and which some viewers may not know. So when one person such as you makes a nice comment about one of the videos its really great - not for my pride, it is that the commenter probably sees Emma's talent in the same way I do, and that makes me so very happy. Thank you ❤

@@RogerC-2024 Thank you for sharing your video's you made, great job👍so we also can enjoy more performances of her, I really liked them and you have a great talent for it. Almost every day I am looking for new performances of her so you made me and many others happy, very kind of you. Please go on this way, I'm looking forward to see more of you and more Emma. There will be some busy months for her coming next months, I hope you'll like it as much as I do all the performances of Emma but I am already convinced of that. Thank you for everything and I remember your name to see more of you❤❤❤

I love Emma ❤

[@JohannaCatharinavandenBlink]

So beautiful, their voices sounds so perfect singing together/apart. They also have both that fragile feeling in their voices and in their humanity that they give to us but also how strong they both are. Together they and everyone are stonger and not alone anymore, that gives us hope for all. I also like all the stars shining and the pyama of Emma with the stars. Stars and making wishes, it belongs together so I wish seeing Sting and Emma singing this beautiful song live together for all of us. To share that beautiful song and singing it not only for us, but also for God, the angels, our loved ones who live in heaven together with them. Also for all the animals and specially for the earth, our planet that gives us so much beauty and make living possible for us, thank you and excuse that we often took too much of this beauty when not necessary🙏🙏🙏⏳✨⭐🌟🌠🌌🎵🎶🌍🌎🌏🌄🌇🌱🌲🌳🌴🌿🌸💮🌺🌹🥀🍁🍃🦁🐅🐯🐷🐖🐿🦔🐻‍❄🐨🐼🐣🐤🐦🐧🦅🦢🐢🐬🦋🫂🧑‍🤝‍🧑👏❤❤❤

Emma is the best ever with the most beautiful voice ❤❤

[@RogerC-2024]

You are exactly right. You may see one of my other Emma videos from where I traveled to Geleen in The Netherlands earlier this month to see her sing in a small venue. I sat front row, centre, about 10 feet from her. The experience was incredible. The sound quality on my video isn't great as it is from just a phone, but no video does her justice. I also saw her live in Birmingham last May with Andre Rieu. I find it difficult to describe what it feels like hearing her sing live. It makes me feel like I'm drowning, her voice seems to penetrate my chest and limits the space in my lungs to draw breath. Its an extraordinary feeling. I've seen a lot of singers live, but none have ever had that effect on me, yet she does it every time.

[@JohannaCatharinavandenBlink]

@@RogerC-2024 I understand, she takes your breath away, so beautiful and emotional she sings. I am happy that she is living her dream and she deserves that. Are you also going to the Disney in Concert in ZiggoDome 4 January 2025? If you do I am sure you will enjoy that. Thank you❤❤❤

[@dolfy1962]

well done Roger 👍

エマ、コックさんは、どんな歌でも、素晴らしく感激して、何度も聞きたくなります❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jungojerry1658]

Emma can sing it all. Imagine going to your local pub or legion hall on karaoke night, and this young lady - who is not old enough to even be in there - steps up and begins singing like she does. The entire floor would be littered with dropped jaws.)

[@RogerC-2024]

I traveled from the UK to Geleen in The Netherlands, near to where Emma lives to see her sing in a small venue; 600 people. I sat 10 feet from her. It was amazing. Not quite the venue as you describe but similar. It was well worth the 7 hours each way of travelling to see her sing 4 songs. You may have seen it but if not, here it is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6OZoml3lKykbtE

[@Theo-de-Koning]

Again a song that is perfect saying about her condition. And also again a diamond from her singing. Now very curious what Sting would say about this. 😉

[@RogerC-2024]

Yes, 'Fragile' she is. I think Sting would love Emma singing this. He would see her talent instantly. I loved the contrast here, the guy who has been there and done it, with professional quality audio etc... then Emma is just standing in her bedroom studio in her pajamas. And yet Emma's is the dynamic voice that carries all the emotion - its extraordinary.

@@RogerC-2024 Yes, I also think Sting will love it, I am looking forward for his reaction. And I hope he will ask her to sing life together on the stage, it will be a fairytale for many❤❤❤

[@Herka5420]

Wow, where did you find this song from Emma. Did not know this at all. Magnificent. Thanks a lot.

[@RogerC-2024]

@@Herka5420 I’m so happy you liked it, I wasn’t sure how it would be received. You may like my next one to come, 13 year old Emma closing a corporate event called Flow of Change in November 2021, singing ‘Times are Changing’. There are a couple of (hopefully interesting) linked stories I will bring out. I don’t want to post videos, some of which are out there already, I’d like to show links between people and events if I can. Again I’m hoping that will add something by being interesting and provide further detail to Emma’s story that some may not have spotted yet.

[@Herka5420]

@@RogerC-2024 Thanks a lot Roger. I enjoy everything and certainly all the time you spend to get an amazingly result.I think many followers of Emma are pleased.

[@realVincentCrabbe]

The song is on @emmakokofficial. (I somehow skipped over it myself. Ouch.) And I 100% agree with @jvdwbd: This is a beautiful cover that deserves more attention. Thank you, Roger.

[@RogerC-2024]

@ yes, exactly, the world deserves to hear the best of Emma, not just her very recent stuff, she was good from when she emerged age 12. Like the Flow of Change performance I posted. That was do good, and a credit to Emma that big corporates would choose her for their event. The world needs Emma Kok ❤️

[@JohannaCatharinavandenBlink]

@@RogerC-2024 Yes, they do, also all the credits for you Roger❤❤❤

How old is Emma here? This is really nice.

Emma was 14 when she did this.
