[@CrazyFriendlyGamerAlex]

To go from opera sining till the rock song? That was astounding!

Both Paul Potts and Jonathan are the perfect expression of low expectations meeting real talent.

Jonathan yes but sorry Potts is very average

Cristina seems to be the only one with proper training for singing opera and the fact that she can sing something out of that genre and do it amazingly. She's talented.

[@nicolewood4201]

You are wrong Paul Potts is out standing

[@latinsb4u]

​@@nicolewood4201 Paul Potts has a nice timbre but he doesn't have the register to be a fully opera singer, is more of a classical crossover.

You forgot number 1: Amira Willighagen, 9 years old, winner of Holland's Got Talent 2013. Simon commented, "She's already a complete artist".

[@Pasovineyard]

The first performance developed into rock. The 13 year old was way off.

[@kennethbrownson5141]

These 5 people still give me chills no matter how many times I listen.

[@skyhiker9669]

Jonathan I’ve followed your career from this moment on. I’m a true fan.

[@tonymordente7189]

The first girl deserves a career more than Selena Gomez or Billie Eillish.

[@Kamelhaj]

This is why I love Got Talent... you often can't guess what a person will sound like until they start singing.

[@danmart1879]

All these singers are treasures of the human race. There is still hope for humanity.

[@silvereaglehere]

Jonathan and Charlotte ARE the best of the group, especially Jonathan, what a voice!!!

[@cybercifrado]

He has matured quite nicely since his audition, as well. Check out his cover of "Unchained Melody". I hope you agree.

[@balonglong100]

HIS TONE!!!!!

[@P2Zip]

The one thing I really like about all these talent shows is that they have given some amazing opera singers the platform for the world to be exposed to opera singing. Many people who had not been exposed have fallen in love and many more to really appreciate opera.

[@ixopo6715]

I think that is very true, but I wonder how many people actually take the next step and go to a major House to see a full opera or a concert. if you want to be introduced to great newcomers in the opera world, you won’t find them on these talent shows. There is perhaps nothing better than watching the ‘BBC Cardiff Singer of the World’ competition, which has been held every two years since 1983 and is broadcast on BBC4. Just getting to the live performances is a huge achievement and many go on to have major international careers. As for some of the winners, they form a who’s who of classical singing.

[@mefford67]

*Jonathan’s voice is truly sublime...*

Third one, his voice is magnificent and hers gets drowned.

She's honestly wasn't that great. She was good but not great.

[@utoobah]

JellyDopeNut I agree but out of all the child opera singers etc then yes she’s the best one but out of standard vocal level, young singers are never as good as their voices aren’t all developed yet

The guy who sang Nessun Dorma, was that another "Susan Boyle" moment? Marilyn Manson singing Opera at the end, priceless.

[@marinapetajisto3926]

He was the first one, Susan Boyle came one or two seasons later..

[@aaroncalvillo9473]

Paul Potts is the man

[@cybercifrado]

Would love to see them both sing some duets together. I think it'd be epic.

[@elsbaby6]

It's been quite a while since I last watched this performance by Laura Bretan. And it will never cease to amaze me how emotional Laura sang. It was as if I was watching a performance on the stage of an opera house. Beautiful!

You don't listen to enough rock and metal. Tons of first class vocalists that switch back and forth from opera to metal and rock vocals. Everyone knows nightwish,but you should also listen to manowar,minniva,orions reign,palantir and winterage. There are probably a thousand or more others but those names will get you down the right rabbit hole on youtube.

[@DaiBei]

Laura and Amira are the best. Their voices are different, but both superbe and already at their age, at the top of the world. Music is also and perhaps primarily emitting emotions, which is why Callas was considered the best time of its time. Laura also has that great emotional quality. In addition, her smile is out of this world. I also love Amira, her beautiful beautiful voice and her playful nature. We are lucky to listen and see both, as much as we want / can. Thank you KZbin and all the uploaders. I hope the fans not only love their idol, but can also enjoy the others. The more we love, the more we enjoy. With these talents and others such as Alma Deutcher, Emily Bear, Angelina Jordan and Akiane Kramarik (not a singer, but check her out - it's amazing). The future is happening.

[@lesgrimwood3621]

Amira is clearly improving all the time and has a massive following on youtube with well in excess of 500m views The reason ? She has the ability to bring large audiences to tears because of her beautiful voice and stage presence and the complete and utter ease of doing this is breathtaking. At the moment she is concentrating on her schooling and is careful not to overstretch herself so she will undoubtably protect her voice for the future Also she started a foundation when she was 10 which provides playgrounds for poor children who otherwise would have nothing Comparison ?? lets not do this please lets just say she has only just begun and has more views on youtube than all the rest put together
