Jackie Evancho @ Quest 4 Best - Hard Rock Cafe - talentquesttvshow.com

[@jamestulk1]

I am 57 and I am lucky enough to have lived long enough just to hear Jackie Evancho.

[@Chefranger]

Jackie's performance was so Amazing! I have seen alot of children sing in my day and alot of really good ones. But she just went to the top of my list.

[@nedless11]

My very favorite of all her performances on youtube. Raw talent, warm tones, impressive vocal control. A stunningly beautiful voice and delivered with emotion.

[@tomcummings711]

Jackie has made Me Cry a Hundred Times ! Me a Vietnam Combat Veteran !

[@tartan410]

I enjoyed the show very much. It was nice to see that although she is growing up, she has maintained her sweet little demeanor. The orchestra was amazing as was her special guest Jumaane Smith on trumpet.

[@billphilpott]

I am awestruck by her voice. Most beautiful voice I have ever heard and to think she always came in second in these talent contests. Course now at 11 she does her own solo Concerts. She just did one in Sun Valley Idaho and has 2 coming up this weekend. pretty good stuff for an eleven yr old huh?

[@stephendavis6894]

Jackie is undeniably a SINGER in a world of screechers. She is better here than the majority of adult 'professionals'.

[@tosius2]

The magical Jacqueline Marie Evancho shortly before her breakout performances on AGT. She obviously "had it all" from the beginning. Angelic voice breathtakingly beautiful.

[@conniesandoval8180]

my goodness I'm exploding in pure admiration of Jackie Evancho's voice!

[@MrCMarra]

This is pure perfection. this girl radiates self confidence. her stage presents is astounding. you can not teach this. this video really brings out her eyes. they are as amazing as her voice. I also love this hairdo the best. the reason why i love watching the videos of Jackie is that you can feel her joy and the love she has for everything around her. Thanks God. What an amazing talent !

[@tosius2]

The most beautiful voice in the history of recorded music, the most beautiful girl in the world. Amazingly talented stunningly beautiful....

[@SofioVenida]

❤❤❤❤Jackie. Excellent. Songs❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bparno]

Only standing ovations for this little angel, everywhere she performs.

[@tarachristian7796]

What else can I say she's pure perfection, poise, confidence She is the whole package and Her presence on stage is that of a well seasoned performer. What she has can not be Taught she is just a beautiful Angel sent buy GOD no one can compare. She also has the beauty and her personality are icing on the cake. Now at the age of 17 she is the same beautiful LITTLE ONE fame has not turned her into a DIVA I believe because she is a GIFT sent to us by GOD. Never change JACKIE your the Best.

[@DB-qi3ty]

Wow! One of my all time favorite performances of Jackie! Simply Amazing!!!

[@prisma608]

This is one of my favorites. It really shows how much you love it: stage presence, timing, really feeling the music, etc. Great job!

[@robertevers8702]

Best singer I ever heard.

[@tvillimg1]

Jackiew is amazing. A little angel. Love to here Jackie every day

[@dinoavanti]

Awesome talent, delicate and uncommon beauty. and charisma by the truckload. Jackie is a superstar!

[@beachron1]

BEFORE agt , she was a Rocking the place down , UNBELIEVEABLE Jackie is

[@MRxVIDEO1]

How many times have I watched this video? I love it !

[@70CobraJet429]

I get goosebumps every time I witness any of Jackie's 2009 performances. So glad I bought a copy of "Prelude To A Dream" when it first came out. It is the highlight of my small CD collection.

[@rosairedubrule60]

Hard to find at 5 k

[@stktrader1I]

You know she is good when the musician in the background is smiling from ear to ear...

[@SDJMEfan12]

One of her best. This, in Italian, Vincent, Only Time, Danny Boy and others on a Jackie sings the ballads CD would be her next platinum. She has proven she can do torch songs as well. I'm quite convinced that there is nothing she can't do vocally.

[@PNUT4X4]

you know i just wished there was audio that could keep up with her !!!!! awsome

[@matjoel]

jackie, the little diva! i like her peformances so much...

[@roddiener]

I saw her in LA on 2/24/12 and was hoping she would do this, being that WH had just passed away and it was also in LA..but unfortunately she did not, regardless, the show was awesome and she did an outstanding job, when I leave this earth one day it will not be with a full heart, because this beautiful soul has a piece of it..

[@frankscopelliti7900]

amazing 9 years old.

[@benmeldrunken880]

She HD a angel vioce She's born to sing

[@rosewood1270]

WELL DONE JACKIE IVE JOINED YOUR FAN CLUB . X

[@ronwgood]

Stunning performance as always a standing ovation

[@rosairedubrule60]

preteen Jackie is best of the best

[@jennyJayify]

It is wonderful finding this cliips of Jackie when she was younger than she is now (10) and in the final four of America's Got Talent. Thank you for up loading this.

[@craps3344]

Best version of this song including English, adult's and professional singers!!!

[@tartan410]

I was the unlucky one that got to follow her on stage after this performance. I had tears in my ears and was all choked up and then had to sing. lol

[@bparno]

How about that nine years old and she already is an international sensation. What a beautiful voice on this child.

[@truenorthdirections]

Superstars begin here for sure!

[@tartan410]

I get to see this little angel sing tonight in Boston at the Wang. It feels like Christmas!

[@cafelosmochis]

ur awesome!!

[@mannonmission1]

one of the best things about this video is watching the guy behind her... he just can't believe it.... well, who can??? simply amazing!!

[@Other299]

@BritneyLuby I'm an old country musician. I've never been very fond of the genre Jackie's voice seems to fall into right now, but her voice transcends all of that. She has the sweetest voice I have ever heard. Male, female, young or old, she is my favorite singer of all time. I could listen to her Ava Maria endlessly and never get tired of it.

[@MFeriante]

Wow!!! These guys had no idea they were listening to a future super star!!

[@Scrubs2U]

That gave me goose bumps. LOVED it. Posted to my Facebook account for others to listen..

[@philipclock]

Lovely!

[@srfh2]

besides the incredible talent, she has an amazing stage prescence(sp?)

[@partlymedia]

«You got a standing ovation...how cool is that?» You can now say, I actually was this close to Jackie, honest. LOL

[@borderreiver3288]

what a stunning voice .....just brilliant....

[@michaelpoyntz9122]

Wow, ACCAPPELLA no less for that first verse....wow!

[@rafterfreak3]

Jackie is one of the best singers. Her voice is genuine I've heard it in person. ^^ Shes like my little sister.

[@Kiababe5]

jackie evancho rocks

[@TheFabulousgirl88]

Amazing! So beautiful!!!!!

[@Miatyank]

If there is a real manager in the US,please manage her.She is better than anyone existing now,but did not find a songwriter to her talent.Her voice shines only at classical,but most of people doesn't like classical.So she needs her own songwriter!Everybody sings,lot of American Talent boys,but She is just The Voice.

[@donkey3187]

You sing that song Jackie! ;)

[@123bunnylover]

AMAZING!!!!!! GOOSE BUMPS ALL OVER!!!!

[@raksan4083]

Jackie is singing most of this in Italian there is one by usedmeb4 where more of it is in English called I will Always Love You the jackie way.

[@shoa31]

Have you heard Jackie's version of "Bridge over troubled water"? Simon and Garfunkel can now retire and be happy that Jackie will carry on the torch.Whitney Houston is smiling down from heaven because she has never heard it done so well in Italian.

[@tartan410]

@cureloms actually they knew exactly what they had their hands on. They knew she would be a huge superstar!

[@jgal4000]

The people witnessing this - did they realize they were watching greatness and a future, soon to be superstar?

[@strongangel]

No nine year old ever sang like this, and probably never will again ..

[@louiswu9907]

Here is one for you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHqonmCGZsaNqKM

[@strongangel]

Charice... is that the became a boy I believe! Besides at this age hardly up to the standard of JE age 8, or 7 year old Angelina Jordan for that matter .. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKvGfKlvi7Wcd6c

[@brgilbert2]

[Strong Aingel] Yes and since her conversion she has all but disappeared from the scene. And I do agree with you about Angelina. In the last few years I have heard alot of very good voices being introduced but Jackie and Angelina truly stand out. So mature at a very young age including how they approach and interpret a piece of music.

[@crr1950]

@dieseldog00 This particular event is not an actual competition for Jackie, if I'm not mistaken. . Just performing at a Talent Quest event. It was a year earlier she competed in Talent Quest.. Are you certain she never won any competitions? I believe she was in many more than what is shown on YoutTUbe.

[@crr1950]

@cureloms There was no Vegas "headline" show... but merely a one night gig as part of the AGT tour.

[@richard40x]

Very interesting comment. Of course as stressful as it probably was in that show, you now have permanent bragging rights, being able to say you performed on the same stage as jackie evancho, and followed her performance, something that few veteran entertainers want to do now.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

This literally made me sweat! I mean, on all fronts; the song, the language, the voice, the execution, the performance, is way out of my ability to comprehend. This is Whitney's song (and I always liked Dolly's first) but to sing this in Italian (she's from Pittsburgh, and she's NINE!) is just God given amazing talent. How did she *fail* TWICE to make it onto AGT? That's ludicrous.

[@dieseldog00]

Apparently the AGT producers didn't like her first two audition songs so her mom sent in a video of Jackie singing Panis Angelicus. Maybe there were some Catholic producers on the show idk but that they gave her the last spot on the show b/c of the public vote. People were just astounded that a nine year old could sing that great aria. The next year when she was 11 years old she went on BGT and sang Nessun Dorma. Only two other Sopranos had ever tackled that monster Puccini aria; Deanna Durbin and Sarah Brightman. They were both adults when they recorded it.

[@edutch54]

+Everett Cox Exactly, Jackie is simply Amazing!! I get goosebumps every time!

[@dieseldog00]

Oh I forgot to mention her studio recording of Nessun Dorma that she put on her Gold album(soon to be Platinum) Dream With Me which she recorded before BGT. She was only ten years old then!

[@brgilbert2]

[Louis Wu] Um, not even close! When Charice starts out she sounds her age. Into the meat of the song I do recognize the power she will exhibit when she becomes older. The real difference is Charice is a pop singer and that is noticeable by how much range she possesses. In other words, the range of a pop singer which is limited.

[@Cheerleader1Waverley]

Look at her now :)

[@MFeriante]

@jennyJayify interesting opinion. Fortunately for Jackie, she didn't get locked into the Vegas headline show, which would have happened had she won. The outcome was perfect. So, I guess it was the right song after all! Blessings from above for having her heart in the right place and not worrying about pleasing the world only ;)

[@dieseldog00]

@billphilpott Yes and I will be at her Dallas concert the 31st. I'm so excited about it and will bring plenty of Kleenex. :)

[@loisdamra]

Jackie's performance was fabulous. I wish the audience would have waited until Jackie had finished her performance before applauding.

[@MFeriante]

@crr1950 you're right, just me being overly critical. the fact is that jackie is amazing! I'm sure there are many who helped jackie along the way, including this competition with Debra. Have a nice day!

[@tartan410]

@jennyJayify This was shot in March of 2010. Not to long before she was accepted on AGT.

[@adventist123]

When she was 9 year old, Jackie Evancho sang "I Will Always Love You" in Italian on a local talent show. Whitney Houston's version is still the best, but this is an amazing performance nonetheless.

[@dieseldog00]

@billphilpott Good point.

[@SDJMEfan12]

Would love to hear what you thought of it.

[@dieseldog00]

@crr1950 Well that's what I read on these competition videos. Those people could be wrong though. I'm from Texas not Pennsylvania so I have no first hand knowledge of her past history in these shows. One thing I do know is, she loves the stage and she loves singing for the people. :) Which is wonderful for us. But let's give Jackie's mom big props for taking her daughter to all these shows and competitions, honing her skills for the big breakout AGT show.

[@JayJacksonJr]

Leverage Jackie, terms of deal; Nice record contract Release from 15 of the 25 AGT Road Tour engagements Allow to do shows with David Foster during the AGT Road Tour Allowing David Foster to produce Dream With Me and more

[@richard40x]

Where is your source for all these details on jackie and the AGT winner. I had heard lots of rumors that match what you said, but never seen any solid source for them.

[@jpswain48]

Country singer/song writer Dolly Parton had no idea this song would be recorded in Italian by a 9 year old child singing classical music. There is a treasure trove of country and pop songs that would fit perfectly within Jackie's four octave range. As an example, I would love to see Jackie record Patsy Cline's "I Fall To Pieces." Jackie is the only artist capable of taking a country song to the opera, backed by the Philharmonic Orchestra. " Songs from the Silver Screen" is a good start.

[@ElizMatLin]

Jackie looks like she has eye make up on this video. I like her natural- innocent- look better in the AGT videos. She doesn't need eye make up or any make up, she naturally looks beautiful like a little angel.

[@allenjones3130]

Jackie sang "I Will Always Love You" a lot better than Whitney Houston ever did.

[@JayJacksonJr]

But of course SYCO/SONY did actually make out, they got to sign Jackie!!!

[@HelTra91]

...didn't she say right at the beginning that it was in italian?

[@bighforu]

@Quizative1 She doesn't have 'fake' hair. Jackie's hair was long back then and she puts it up in a pony tail. Sheez

[@tartan410]

@wwedude1234 Debra Crosby's Talentquest TV SHow is shot in the Boston Hard Rock Cafe'.

[@ridemeup]

1:28 -1:33 I was shocked and foamed instantly when she sang this part cos as far as people sing this song "i will always love you", they sang well in the first verse but when they reach this part 1:28 -1:33 their voice kinds fucked up xD but she sang BEAUTIFULLY !! Very angelic.

[@billphilpott]

Jackie couldn't win the AGT prize as she is not a vegas act. She is a world class classic singer. She sings to the world and the world is listening.

[@chip11sheff]

I actually must be one of the few who used to get really irritated with Whitney's version and hated it whenever it was on the radio or telly....but Jackie's version to me is more mellow and I have got to like it the way she does it.....I love the way she persists right to the end although the audience were dying to applaud her she decided that she was gonna have her moment in the sun at the climatic finish lol

[@dieseldog00]

@MrFrank31088 Believe it or not she never has won one. She lost this one, then lost David Foster's competition, then lost AGT. But as Omg said she has got the last laugh over all the winners. She's internationally famous with a great career ahead of her, and they are...well...not. But singing here in Italian and showing off that beautiful voice it's a crime she didn't win this one. The producer should be ashamed of herself.

[@john84753]

ouch! went flat when she tried to go loud. Good job.

[@chip11sheff]

I would love the current 13 yo Jackie to have a go at Attesa from Sarah B's Symphony album. Being based on Pietro Mascagni's intermezzo from Cavalleira Rusticana this has always been a favourite piece of music of mine and Sarah B's offering is the only vocal interpretation that I have seen. Does anyone know how we can get a suggestion to the Evancho camp for their consideration. I am sure Jackie would love to do something that her great hero has performed.

[@tunanorth]

She has now done it for her most recent album, Two Hearts. Great version too.

[@richard40x]

Connie Talbot gave both Jackie and Whitney Houston a run for their money on this song, although since AGT and Dream with Me Jackie has eclipsed both of them.

[@crr1950]

@cureloms Oh course she/Debra knows who Jackie is. Jackie walked away with first place in her competition a year earlier. Jackie had Debra in tears throughout O Mio Babino Caro.

[@JayJacksonJr]

Cowell did not have the levarage. It is true that in all these talent shows the producers of the show have in the contract that they have the right to name the winner, reguardless of the vote. But they do not want the public to know when they are being over-ruled. They did not want Jackie named the winner and the Evancho did not like the terms of the contract for the winner. So that week end after her very first performance, a deal was made. The terms of the deal shows who had the real leverage.

[@rd1903]

The guy with the guitar (Mamadu ?) sat with his arms crossed and never applauded.

[@MFeriante]

@Quizative1 hate to break it to you bro, but the hair (and the voice) is real! It's all real!!!!

[@ashleync29]

I hope she gets to sing with Kristin Chenoweth one day.

[@ericamills6396]

rosewood somewhere over the rainbow from the wizard of oz

[@MrEelyerfdog]

For a 9-year-old to sing this song, much less in Italian, and almost as well as WH, is quite a feat.

[@BritneyLuby]

@TheQues747ruth Maybe that's because she sang in ITALIAN!

[@dieseldog00]

@milewalker1 Thank you I did not know that. But somehow I knew Cowell would not let her get away. He was no doubt onto her when he saw her AGT tryout video on yt. I wonder who the idiot was who turned her down TWICE for AGT, bet he's not working there any more. What made me angry though was syco taking down off yt three of Jackie's best performances on Great Performances. Which reminds me, what is Foster's role with Jackie now? Does Simon have any control over that?

[@BritneyLuby]

@Other299 I definitely agree... people just don't appreciate her style of music I guess... or they're deaf :D

[@MFeriante]

@tartan410 ok?

[@ElizMatLin]

@milewalker1 of course can decide who she is. what are you talking about?
