the link is youtube, Lawrence. It's Aled Jones, there's a lot of him on youtube
but this particular clip comes from a terrifically good BBC documentary about
him, years ago.
(I've now seen your other email, and Erin's. Strange you can't view that
video, but try this -- same song, rather different performance
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctUHJ5rFcCM
if you search youtube for Aled Jones, ombre mai fu, you may find a version of
the original you can watch)
I don't know whether I think Jackie Evancho is better than Charlotte Church
was, I want to find some more videos from that time.

Judy, Alas, I have 64-bit Windows 7 and Adobe doesn't have the requisite flash
player for that yet. What is this young man's name? Maybe he's on YouTube.
Yes, I saw early Charlotte Church. I was impressed with her at the time, but
my impression as that Jackie Evancho is better. I hope our resident Bizarro is
wrong about how Jackie Evancho achieved her polished voice. Lawrence From:

Evancho: http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/08/11/an-incredible-10-year-old-opera-singer-on-americas-got-talent/ How
is it possible for a ten-year-old girl to have such a well-developed operatic
voice? A friend who heard her said Jackie reminded her of something from the
exorcist. Her voice is beautiful, but it is bizarre that she should have it. I
didn't have that reaction. I listened to her several times and she brought
tears to my eyes on each occasion. She is a prodigy. I just hope her managers
don't ruin her life. Lawrence
