but I decided, with the pipes on this little girl, it had to go here in the "Music" thread.
I'm likely to be shouted down for this but I'm not terribly impressed. Don't get me wrong, this young girl has a lot of singing talent. I just don't think anyone this age or even twice her age can do that song justice. These talent shows seem to attract ever younger performers who are quite good technical singers but I just don't hear any feeling in the song. It sounds kind of dead if you get my meaning.
I'm probably in the minority opinion on this. I feel the same way about a lot of pop singers too. All technical talent, no feeling.
Shouted down? Not by me! Music is a very personal thing... kinda like beauty! I agree that at 10 or 11 years old they can't possibly have the life experiences to put real "feeling" into the words. But, like I said... the kid has pipes! I'm cool with that. I look forward to some day hearing her do this same song with some "life" behind her.
