CHARLOTTE & JONATHAN STAR ON BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT 2012 SEMI FINAL! CARUSO

• THE X FACTOR 2015 AUDI... a must watch! Watch Charlotte and Jonathan's performance of the Italian song Caruso in the BGT Live Semi Final.
Caruso was composed by Lucio Dala in 1986, and has been covered by many international artists. A version of Caruso sung by Luciano Pavarotti sold over 9 million copies, and another version was a track on Andrea Bocelli's first international album Romanza, which later sold over 20 million copies worldwide

[@hannahbelle7153]

the fact that Jonathan couldn't leave his friend for stardom, that makes it all noble....Jonathan, you are wonderful

[@whatevergoesforme5129]

Sadly, as he became more famous now, he has no time to talk to her nowadays. He is obviously the better singer and is a natural but Charlotte gave him the confidence he needed way back then. Hope he won't forget her. Or maybe something personal happened between them when Jonathan became the bigger star.

Or was the mike turned off? Take another listen. Hmmm. Fortunately as of now, Dec. 2015 they both are doing very well, are constantly busy and making people happy with their singing. I still to this day wish they were a duo or would at least make an appearance together at say, a fund raiser.

In their first audition, it must have gone unnoticed that Charlotte cued Johnny to hold for a measure on the intro, when he jumped the gun. She then lost focus, and jumped from her part, to his.... and still continued. In short, from his first syllable, Charlotte rescued him, and took a serious shot in the gut, from Simon, for it. "Gutsy" doesn't say it right. She's showed enormous courage and friendship, and at 16, deserved a lot better from Simon than his callous 'dump her' remark.

[@pauladouglass9456]

OneVoiceMore I know this is an old thread but I have to agree with you. From what I saw in the 3 BGT videos of them, Johnathan looked to Charlotte several times for cues. He severely lacked self-confidence and she was his rock. It is my belief that if he had not of had her by his side, he would have never made it past the first round. Not to misunderstand me, I think he is truly phenomenal but just lacked confidence.

[@denaspohn5207]

I think he almost started too early, but his voice is very powerful. I agree with a previous commenter. The people doing the sound amplified Jonathan's so much she was almost drowned out.

Pavarotti and Bocelli are tenors -- Jonathan is a baritone. It's the curse of opera that tenors and sopranos get all the good songs, baritones and altos just provide the depth to the music. But -- that is changing. There are more arias being written for baritones, and more baritones becoming well known. Jonathan should be at the head of the list as far as fame goes! Now, let's work on getting some altos some recognition as well! (I sang alto/baritone in choir)

[@MrOTcomputer]

I agree. Charlotte is an amazing singer but doesn't get as much credit as Jonathan. So let's open my book of proof and answers since I am the only person on earth holding all of them. Umm...well....interesting. I found a very interesting question that I believe may shed some light on this anomaly. Flipping through the pages of the past I found something very interesting. Céline Dion & Andrea Bocelli played together in a very similar way. So my questions is this: Would Céline Dion of had the same issue as Charlotte has if she wasn't already known for being a star singer? I'm thinking yes she would of had the same problem. Conclusion: Despite the difference in tone and vocal balance, they are perfect together. (I personally love Charlotte's voice and I believe Charlotte is as much of a star singer as Jonathan is. They are perfect together. Simon suggested splitting them apart and I believe that would have been a devastating mistake. They are much stronger signers together. The music would not be as beautiful if they were singing alone. And Simon later acknowledged that splitting them apart would have been a huge mistake and together they formed an amazing, unique and beautiful chemistry. Simon openly admitted that their performance together was one of the best he has ever witnessed!)

There was Paul Potts, and then Susan Boyle, and now this duo. What more do you need to prove "don't judge a book by its cover"? I watced this duo over and over for the past few days, and still get goose bumps every time I hear them singing. They both have amazing voices, you just got suck into it wen they start singing. Keep up the great job, and wish you two the best in your career!!!

[@hendo19742]

WELL SAID!

[@DeciSpades]

I agree that Jonathan’s voice is extremely powerful and wonderful. I do think Charlottes is just as beautiful just feminine and the first audition she was overpowered but this is incredible and I do think they are amazing together

[@devinedeeem6705]

For some reason I'm in love with with Charlotte. She's so pretty. They are beautiful together and the genre of music is perfect for them.

[@abacab87]

I came here to watch Jonathan's "unchained melody" once before going to work, didn't expect to be here an hour later going through all of Jonathan's videos. I'm a guy, not depressed, and generally very stoic, but something about when Jonathan hits the right note and I'm reduced to sobbing.

Я впервые слышала как рождались звезды:Джонатан и Шарлотта! От этой песни просто слезы ручьем. Желаю им процветания

[@FranciscoGonzalez-wq2od]

Dentro de ellos hay un espíritu que se ha refugiado en un cuerpo de un joven de 17 años y una niña de 16 años para dar alegría y poner un tapa bocas a quienes e han burlado por su aspecto. Sin lugar a dudas esta pareja debiera ser conocida por todos los amantes a la buena música

[@suerobbins3146]

EVERY TIME....EVERY TIME I WATCH IT'S GOOSEBUMPS !!!!1

[@newdimension4731]

2024 I would of wish for them together to MAKE AN ALBUM OR 2 their voices goes SO WELL TOGETHER it's magical! Charlotte has an ANGEL voice

[@tankmaster1018]

Still one of my favorite renditions of Caruso ever... I mean I still regularly listen to this in my car on the way to school. These young adults are just fucking amazing!

[@aspenrebel]

+tankmaster1018 Hey, can we do that to a Heavy Metal beat?

[@monktrane325]

Charlottte does give him strength. Wonderful..

[@jimmyavsfan24]

I absolutely love Alesha. She is such a beautiful woman and a beautiful person. Stunning smile.

[@jimbo91262]

love love love her!!

[@jamespage929]

Nobody going to comment on how lovely her smile is. Jesus! You can see how happy the comments from ALL 4! Judges make her. Her face is beaming!!

[@molostone8946]

She has huge gaps between her teeth. That's an abomination

[@teddyjones3652]

@@molostone8946 your life is an abomination, loser

[@hannahmariepoole4867]

Behind every great man is a great woman.... Charlotte, you are a beautiful soul, a wonderful leader, and a talent in your own right, and the world has you to thank for coaxing one of the greatest tenors of our time into the spotlight. Thank you for your gift to opera, and good luck in your solo career!

[@elbrujo6974]

Charlotte walked on stage with this timid little mouse, but that mouse grew into a lion with one of the most beautiful voices I have heard. The pair brought down the house tonight. I see success for the both of them in life and music.

[@darrensmith4279]

Proves now he was held back.hes 100%better solo.what a man soul &voice

[@xxkomebackkidxx]

Gutsy to start with Charlotte but this song showcased both their talents separately and unified terrifically.

[@terrimorrison2857]

I think they had to start with Charlotte, otherwise her voice would've gotten "lost" with Jonathan's as strong as it is. Certainly not saying anything against Charlotte, I think she's a good singer, but her voice is not as strong as Jonathan's. And I absolutely agree that this song was excellent for them!

[@xxkomebackkidxx]

Agreed. She would have been overshadowed with Jonathon's voice as every loves his story. I think this was an excellent song to showcase them both.

[@terrimorrison2857]

Han Li The interesting thing about your comment is that Charlotte is younger than Jonathan. She was 16 at that time, Jonathan 17. But girls mature faster than boys, it's a well known fact.

I love them both and Jonathan is precious.

[@psoteriou3884]

If there's music in heaven I think it'll sound something like this. These two are sensational.

[@lokilover5247]

I really do not like Simon Cowell, but I agreed with him at the audition. I thought Charlotte would hold Jonathan back. But I gotta say, this performance, from BOTH of them, sent chills up my spine. Bravo, Jonathan, for standing up for Charlotte. Bravo, Charlotte, that was beautiful.

[@cindyweir9645]

Wow, I'm just blown away by these two. I know they split up for creative reasons and we are so lucky to have the work they've done together. Charlotte sounds so beautiful here. And Jonathan is so powerful. I really believe he will be the next Pavarotti. On that level.

[@rowo2774]

Over the years of talent shows, this is definitely one of my favorite ever performances.

[@johnnyd8717]

I don’t even know what to say? Speechless “and crying” but Speechless.

[@samra2397]

This duo made me so emotional. Their voices are so strong and flawless. PHENOMINAL.

[@megfults248]

I get literal chills when they sing, it's truly beautiful

[@gedalukomskaya8938]

Джонатан и Шарлотт вместо собаки, дрессируют наших мурашек!!! Никогда не думала, что у меня их так много!!! БРАВО!!!

[@Pboy7272]

2022, still blows me away. I think this performance was better than their final. Lost to a dog. Unreal.

[@evelyndavis2259]

This is one of the best duets ever.

[@NightStar787]

That's an amazing friendship they have. They entered Britain's Got Talent as a team and they finished it as a team, such a strong friendship is hard to come by these days :(

[@revincentiii]

Charlotte completely blew the audience and judges away. Jonathon is amazing!

[@Paellain]

Those two were teenagers back then. Amazing.

[@boochy115]

My absolute favorite version of Caruso. Amazing.

[@GLORIAREYES07]

2:12 and 2:43 "Hey friend, get ready for high notes" Jehehe... I love to see how happy is him for his friend❤❤❤

[@green1480]

gloria caceres 2:43 isn't a high note, it's a quite a low note actually. No hate.

[@TheJoyfulEye]

beautiful singing, but even more beautiful friendship and loyalty

[@michelleishappy4036]

This jewel is my absolute favorite of Charlotte and Jonathan! I couldn't understand anything but oh how SPLENDID!!!!

[@andradecyrellmay5406]

Goshhhh I can literally listen to them over and over again without getting tired! I just love these two and their amazing voices!😍💖👏

[@Sserpxes]

Jonathan if you ever read this I want you to know that your talent surpasses Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and Carusso. You are a slice of heaven come to to earth for us mere mortals to glance at. Don't let anyone stand in the way of your dreams

[@keriannellison2822]

He has a Facebook page he's very active on. You can tell him!

[@atiboyful]

I've been thru some pretty serious SHEET in my 54 yr old life, including combat, but this man's voice just sends shivers up my spine! Can't explain it! He is really something special!

[@aspenrebel]

+atiboyful If you had him in combat with you, he probably would have scared the shit out of the enemy!!

[@riccardo9383]

+aspenrebel Or maybe there would be another christmas truce just for all to hear him lol

[@CARLWISE2008]

Jonathan is the voice from GOD such a wonderful soul he is golden .

[@wanmaribiltre14]

I remember seeing this performance, and I cried. I was so overcome by the beauty and perfection of Jonathan's voice. Bravo Maestro!!

Johnathan has the VERY BEST voice I have heard in years!! What an awesome gift!!

I have said it once and I WILL say it again. How can a DOG win a contest against these angelic voices? They're voices brings tears of wonder every time I watch/listen!
