America's New Angel Jackie Evancho

Last week I wrote about a particular song and I guess music is on my mind, or in my soul lately so this is another music review.

When it comes to Squidoo a few names come to mind that are either musicians themselves or write about music, but only one name comes to mind for bringing me back to his article over and over again. I don’t think there are more than a handful of articles that I can re-read, or re-visit for no other reason than they have what I like.

Richard, who writes under the name of
Waxing-Lyrical has one of these articles. I jokingly told him that he needed to start serving coffee as I spend so much time there. A good cup of coffee is perfect for reading and listening to his Jackie Evancho article and songs. What an Angel! What a voice! If we could put these articles on our phone's speed-dial Richard's would surely be on mine.

I remember watching America’s Got Talent when this tiny little girl came on stage, so innocent looking. Apparently the show had decided to look for talent in a different way than they had, and this little Angel was found on YouTube. She had a huge following, and unbelievably she is only 10 years old. As this cute little blond haired, blue eyed little girl stood on the stage I doubt anyone knew how she would capture our hearts. That voice, as Simon said, was the voice of an Angel. It was really hard to believe that any little girl could sing like that. YouTube had millions of hits after that to see this little girl sing, and I have had several, although not a million, to Richards article as he has all her videos, including the one of her singing her new song from her new CD-O Holy Night.

Richard writes a lot of music articles, and I must admit not all of them are my style, but this one is.Why don't you join me for a cup of coffee over at Richard's article, I am sure you'll enjoy it!

  1. I saw Jackie this Summer and was blown away. Richard's lens is a veritable treasure trove of info about the young phenom. A wonderful review of a girl with a very bright future!

  2. Don't you love those lenses where you need a cup of coffee to go with them? You are right that this is one of them. Richard saw Jackie Evancho's talent from the very beginning.
