Dear Jackie Evancho:
You're precocious, kid. Definitely talented, a natural voice. However, singing a duet of "Somewhere" with Video!Barbra is SO not the business. You undermine yourself, kid. Barbra's got talent AND experience on her side. So, where you're just singing the lyrics (because you haven't lived for very long)? Well, Barbra is living them, breathing them, investing every last syllable with meaning. You've got a lot to live up to. I don't blame you. Whatever adult created that set list is to blame. The song's too old for you. You're, like, 11. The voice may be there, but you're missing the emotional nuance. You'll get there, I'm very sure. You're just not there yet.
love,
me
