What a beautiful voice. I saw the video where this young lady sang la cigarra last year, and I couldn't understand why she didn't place. Then I saw the video where she sang this song at another competition and I loved it. Then I thought to myself, if she sings this song at the MVE 28, she'll win the whole thing. I guess I was right. Beautiful song by a great singer. Congratulations.
