Interesting! Thanks!

I guess there really are angels.

Ivan Seeking said:Turns out I couldn't get through a number of others. This normally doesn't happen to me. I have never been so completely floored by any artist before. I am simply overwhelmed by her talent and spirit, and that heavenly, miraculous, impossible voice. And this so obviously comes right from the heart... you can see that. She is such a treat to not only hear, but also to watch. It is all so completely natural for her. They should sell DVDs of Jackie, not CDs. Watching the music flow out of her is half the treat.

I don't think I've ever heard it done better.

Don't get me wrong - she is incredible. But the contrast between being 11 yo with a childish face and a mature voice throws me off for some reason.

Ivan Seeking said:Her dad correctly stated the biggest challenge that they face - keeping Jackie, Jackie. She is a terribly sweet little girl but the pressures on her are no doubt just as phenomenal as her singing. What must it be like for a ten year old girl to become a princess, overnight?

To be honest, this reminds me of the winners of child beauty pageants. That's irrational, because it's really no different than any child actors in movies, but children acting like children in movies just doesn't seem quite as incongruous.
