Great reaction! Amira is not a pop singer, she has been an elite soprano since the age of 8. She won Holland's Got Talent at the age of 9. As well as classical singing, she sings crossover, musicals, gospel, sound tracks and Disney songs. You'll love seeing her in the video "Amira Willighagen ~ Live in Concert ~ Amazing Grace", in which she belts out notes beyond the soprano range at the age of 13, with 30 million views.
And, Debbie, it is not just her voice which amazes me every time. Amira has a foundation since she was 10 years of age ("Gelukskinders", which means Happy children). That foundation creates save playgrounds for poor kids in the Townships in South Africa and so far 22 has been built. Amira is 20 now and she still sings. Humanity however is her first goal and she wants to perform at places which are also in reach for people who can't pay expensive exclusive concerts. That does not mean she avoids big concerts, but she wants to share her gift with everybody, not just a "happy few". I have had the privilege to be able to visit two of Amira's Christmas concerts: one in Belgium and one in the Netherlands (where I live): they were both wonderful. Amira's most recent video is called "Amen". I am sure you will like it a lot. Although Amira and Angelina are two complete different singers they have a lot in common: Amira did win Holland got Talent in 2013 at the age of 9 (and won); Angelina did win Norway got talent in 2014 at the age of 8 and won. Both girls have made performances in many countries ever since and they both do have a firm base of supporters. Amira left the Netherlands 5 years ago and lives in South Africa (the country her mother is born). Angelina left Norway 5 years ago and lives in America to reach her goal: being a world Star.. Both girls did grow-up away from the big media and talent-hunters and are now nice, happy and confident adults. One thing is really different between the two: As a kid Amira wanted to sing "just one time on tv" and she was completely surprised when things went viral and so on. Angelina, from the beginning, had just one goal in mind: win the competition and becomming a "World Star" as an adult. And the third singer I would like to mention to you is Lucy Thomas from the UK. My guess is that you will like her as well. Lucy is almost 20 now (so about same age as Amira is) and I am sure you will like her voice as well. Her rendition from Lennard Cohen's "Halleluia" (she did it when she was 16) is "from another planet".
Since December 2019, I have avidly followed all three of these incredible young ladies almost daily, as well as a fourth one named Laura Bretan. They give me hope for a better musical world! You wrote a great post!
The third of the Triple A Girls is Amira’s friend, Alma Deutscher, pianist, violinist with a permanent Strad loaner, conductor, and composer, with sold out operas to her credit.
I really enjoyed your reaction & have just subscribed. Glad you’re feeling a little better & laughing is a great strength to have. With Amira, it may be wise to start at or near the beginning., so I’d suggest you start with her performing O Mio Babbino Caro with Andre Rieu ( the renowned conductor / musician). Amira , at the ripe old age of TEN, sang to an audience of over 10,000 & received a standing ovation. This video has had in excess of 74 million views. Should you take up this suggestion, I can give you more performances in age order & also give details of her incredible journey to date. Her journey alone would be worthy of a reaction. Cheers Graeme
Loved the reaction. A characteristic of Amira’s audience is mouth left open, tears in the eyes, expressing WOW coming to their feet in applause at the end. Oh yes one more, stumbling over her last name. 😂♥️
Amira is a brilliant singer, with a heart of gold too. Second name is Villik hahgen. She is Dutch If you want to see emotional performances, her O mio babinno caro with Andre Rieu is a tear jerker. Live in concert, Nella Fantasia is another. Gesu Bambino, and Amen both from 2023 are more recent stunners. At 13 she also delivered a beautiful version of Amazing Grace. There are plenty on her back catalogue to find.
great to see ya hope you feel better Amera did a video when she was 10 with André Rieu thats a must see also Emma Kok singing Volia with Andre Rieu she has an amazing story pleas watch as Andra introduces her its so heart touching
At this concert Amira sang O Mio Babbino Caro then walked to the front of the stage to sing this. Amira will be 20 on March 27th. See a concert in South Africa when she sang Nessun Dorma followed by the Flower Duet, with Corlea Botha (CIG 2017). Soon after she moved to her new school in SA she sang in the school concert: O Mio Babbino Caro followed by Nessun Dorma (Amira school concert 2018). More recently see Gesu Bambino, sung when visiting her father (2023). He played the organ in an empty church.
Great reaction, so touching ! And yes, Amira was definitely outstanding. The best definition I could give about this performance would be a three minutes long divine eternity... But she did many others for the last ten years. 😊
Great to see you back. Amira won Holland’s got Talent at age 9. She sang Ave Maria in the semi final. She also sings another unbelievable version Ave Maria by William Gomez at age 11 in the Canisius Church in Nijmegen.
Yes, to me that is possibly the most impressive and emotional way I have ever seen this wonderful religious song performed on a video. It is as if Amira was completely somewhere else, when she sang it. And I think everybody in that church could feel that and they probably do remember it to this day....
Welcome back Debbie!!...Amira is amazing!!...I know you love Lara Fabian so you have to react to who is considered a young Lara: Emma Kok, an amazing, emotional and incredible young singer, because apart from her incredible talent, Emma is an example of life for all human beings...Believe me: You have to react to this amazing singer....One of the big stars in the music's future!!...Emma Kok (15 years old), Utrecht, Netherlands, winner of The Voice Kids 2021 (when she was 12 years old) and Ministars 2023....Here she is covering the theme "Voilá", together with the Johann Strauss orchestra conducted by the well-known André Rieu....The original song is by Barbara Pravi who represented France at Eurovision 2021 in Rotterdam....Emma suffers from a rare gastric disease, her stomach is inhibited by this illness, practically becoming dormant. Emma is, therefore, dependent on two feeding pumps, essential lifelines providing her food, so she created her own foundation called Gastrostars to raise funds to investigate this disease....Unfortunately the original video does not have English subtitles, but I am sure that will not be a problem for you to appreciate this gem of an interpretation...Very important: The video begins with Maestro André making a short introduction to the audience of who Emma Kok is, so please don't miss that introduction because it is very important to understand the context and the incredible story of this extraordinary young singer....Here is the link of the official video:...ruclips.net/video/KdIhq1tb8Co/видео.htmlsi=8VlaeZhVgrUNG4t7
Debbie, just as you found a diamond when you found Angelina Jordan, you have discovered another diamond in Amira Willighagen! I hope you will definitely pursue this rabbit hole! I will say that what Angelina is to jazz, ballads, and pop, Amira is to opera, classical crossover, and Christian music! And they are both just as beautiful, humble, sweet, and strong inwardly as they are outwardly. Thanks for reacting to this darling girl (who will be 20 in March), and for being back with us! Take care of yourself and God bless you!
amira was a great admirer of patricia janeckova, who won 'talentmania' in 2010 in her native slovakia aged 12 with this same tune!! amira was devastated last year when she heard of the death of patricia from breast cancer at the age of just 25, six weeks after getting married!! i believe there was a mutual admiration between the 2 girls as they were growing up! there will be no competition between them, so take alisten to patricia's version as well!!
Amira was discoverd ..on the Dutch " Holland got talent "! ..and also discovered by Andre Rieu ! .. His latest discovery .. also from a Dutch talent show ... is EMMA KOK ! ... a 15 years old girl ... singing " VOILA "..You want regret listening to that !
Amira is another Angelina Jordan, just she's opera and Angelina is jazz. Amira won Holland got talent at 9, Angelina won Norway at 8. Around the same time period too. 2014
amira was a great admirer of patricia janeckova who won 'talentmania' in slovakia in 2010 aged 12 with this same tune! sadly, patricia died last year aged 25, from breast cancer, 6 weeks after getting married! she was destined to become one of the world's finest ever opera sopranos!!!
@markgrant3653 yes, it was very sad! hopefully, there will be some sort of promotion to bring people's attention to patricia's talent, either by book, documentary, stage show, film or cd/dvd, or maybe even the use of 'AI'!!
What a lovely reaction and your pronunciation of her last name was very good! I know ..im dutch😅She is almost 20 now and start at the beginning when sh was nine and won Holland got Talent in 2013
OUR ANGEL AMIRA'S VOICE CUTS RIGHT THROUGH THE HEART - SHE IS SPECIALLY GIFTED BY GOD - JUST LOOK HOW EFFORTLESSLY SHE PERFORMS FOR A YOUNG GIRL OF 13 - NO OTHER WAY TO EXPLAIN IT - THANK YOU QQ FOR DISCOVERING AMIRA - 777 BOER BEN
You owe it to yourself to watch her performance of O Mio Babbino Caro from Holland's Got Talent. It will knock your socks into another county. It also explains the fascinating story of how she got started, since she was only 9 at the time. The Andre Rieu performance is equally impressive but she had grown up...she was 10.
I certainly endorse that. 41 million views plus umpteen RUclips reactions, which I have seen just about all of them. Yesssss…. Pls do a reaction of Emma with Voila, and then look up the lyrics. Greetings from New Zealand
Dearest Debbie, I love your sensitivity. Amira is for me white princess as Angelina is black one. One in opera another one in jazz. They both have extrairdinary gifts.You know when you change order of letters in Amra's name you get Maria (Callas). If you wish to react to new artists (but do not forget about Dimash lol), I would suggest phenomenal young guitarist from my homeland Poland Marcin Patrzałek. You can start from his Moonlight Sonata or any other piece he performs. Hugging you warmly Karolina
Amira is not real Amira is a special Angel of God Amira is simply fantastic magnificent and fabulous Amira is incomparable unique definitely the most perfect and wonderful voice in the world Amira is a special phenomenon Amira the special Princess of God❤❤❤ thank my God for Amira❤❤❤
Amira never fails to surprise us !!! / we have discovered lately this new voice / singer (SYNDIE CHRISTMAS) she won BGT 2024 very recent, u , must react to her believe me she blows everyone away !!! m watching you hahaha !!!
Agreed - even compared to people like Galli-Curci, Pons, De los Angeles, Price, Flagstad et al, Amira must surely be rated as possibly the finest super soprano in human history.
Amira Willinghage was nine years old when she won Holland's Got Talent and had learned to sing opera via RUclips. She has now emigrated to South Africa with her mother and brother, which I think is a shame! (her mother is from South Africa, her father, Amira and her brother are Dutch.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Amira. Great reaction!!! I always advise reactors to go back and watch her at age 9--yes 9!!!! There are 3 Holland's Got Talent videos to watch: her original audition, the semi-finals and the finals. She crushed all of them. Here's the link to the first one--with English subtitles: ruclips.net/video/qDqTBlKU4CE/видео.html Liked and subscribed and waiting for another Amira reaction!!!!
Hi Debbie, welcome back and thank you for your nice reaction. You already have a lot of suggestions in the comments, but let me add one of my favs: O sole mio her duet with Patrizio Buanne.
Debbie, Amira is really a fantastic opera singer. You might want to react to Jackie Evancho as well,who was runner up but should have won AGT as a 10 year old. She is amazing as well. Amira is a trained classical/ opera singer. Jackie was never trained as a singer, but just has a natural ability to sing opera but also sings pop. She is 23 now and for whatever reason she never caught on with the younger generation, just like Amira and Angelina, but it sure as hell wasn't for the lack of singing ability. So glad you're 'Back In The Saddle Again'.
It is inevitable that you were to hear about Amira! Her last name you got exactly right, since you needn't say it the Dutch & Afrikaans way (her 'twin' cultures) till you learn it, for her sake. Just like with Porsche we don't say the "e" as we aren't speaking in German. Her latest release on to youtube of "Amen" highlights her Protestant faith which she speaks of very often, too, and the choir singing with her sing in their South African language: "Lord God Almighty, who was & is & is to come." Her range is huge, and she is now starting music at uni at Pretoria, quite near her home town. In SA the school year is just starting now, and she spent last year touring her home country plus a foreign tour or two.
You now have been infected by Amira. Since her 3 performances on Hollands Got Talent, winning at age 9, she has been surprising everyone with her performances. don't miss any of them. all special in their own way. Its not often you get to hear an angel. Her first video, ruclips.net/video/qDqTBlKU4CE/видео.htmlsi=KReYqhsTG6UOYNzQ, then in the semi finals, she sang ave maria, ruclips.net/video/FUnrLMvpQLk/видео.htmlsi=7HXBR5wS9uf60YAv, from there I have watched every performance, over and over again, and you will too. Enjoy
Amira was just 20 on March 17, having been born in 2004! At the time of singing that song she was 13. She initially taught herself to sing watching youtube! No vocal lessons.
cette chanson est magnifique 🎶. Sa voix est magique 😍.' quand j'entends cette musique ou la chanson, j'ai toujours les larmes aux yeux 🥺. Très bonne réaction 👍. A+ 💞
ahh yeah kids you got to love them didn't see this in your playlist but this "kid" is phenomenal too she was 15 or 16 when she did this (she's around 21 or 22 now I guess) but if you haven't done this try "Tins S moonlght Sonata (3rd movement)"
Your prononciation of these 'terrible' Dutch names was not so bad. To help you out with "Willighagen": just use the "a" like in 'far,' or 'harm'. (and don't try to say our 'gggg' because your throat will suffer 😊). You can follow her from age 9 (Holland's Got Talent) and 10 (with André Rieu) right up till now, when she will be 20 soon. Last song: "Amen", with the "Ndlovu Youth Choir" (how's that as a tonguebreaker ?).😅
Si esto te sorprendió, deberías reaccionar a cuando tenía 10 años y cantó O Mio Babbino Caro con Andre Rieu. Saludos desde Ciudad de Guatemala en Centro América. Te comparto el link...ruclips.net/video/66-A2MyVDbU/видео.htmlsi=IurHp9GceHabODPo
Eu não sou cantora e o poder de Deus eu sou original não emitido a idade que tenho não vou ver sou verdade estou no F as minhas fotos original obrigada ❤Maria de Portugal ❤
I shall love to watch your reaction on this sweet and angelic vocal: Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You | Putri Ariani Cover ruclips.net/video/HmM02knXpr8/видео.html
Amira has a beautiful voice, and even more importantly she is fine a and caring person. I discovered Amira because I have been following Jackie Evancho since I saw her performance on AGT in 2010,Jackie was 10 years old then, and created a HUGE rush of Got Talent shows around the world searching for young children who could sing. Holland Got Talent got lucky in 2013 and found Amira. They built the whole 2013 season around Amira. It could not have happened to a better child, Amira not only had a beautiful voice, she was/is a wonderful caring person, very much like Jackie. Jackie emailed Amira after her first performance on HGT, and Amira was thrilled Jackie reached out to her, they have remained in touch over the years. Amira oftens performs songs she sees Jackie perform. I would love to see your reaction to Jackie performing "Once Upon A Time In The West". ruclips.net/video/SMLmzKeOIH8/видео.html
What a voice. She is just amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great reaction! Amira is not a pop singer, she has been an elite soprano since the age of 8. She won Holland's Got Talent at the age of 9.

She’s Dutch, it’s vil leg HOG gen.
And, Debbie, it is not just her voice which amazes me every time. Amira has a foundation since she was 10 years of age ("Gelukskinders", which means Happy children). That foundation creates save playgrounds for poor kids in the Townships in South Africa and so far 22 has been built. Amira is 20 now and she still sings. Humanity however is her first goal and she wants to perform at places which are also in reach for people who can't pay expensive exclusive concerts. That does not mean she avoids big concerts, but she wants to share her gift with everybody, not just a "happy few". I have had the privilege to be able to visit two of Amira's Christmas concerts: one in Belgium and one in the Netherlands (where I live): they were both wonderful.

The third of the Triple A Girls is Amira’s friend, Alma Deutscher, pianist, violinist with a permanent Strad loaner, conductor, and composer, with sold out operas to her credit.

Loved the reaction. A characteristic of Amira’s audience is mouth left open, tears in the eyes, expressing WOW coming to their feet in applause at the end. Oh yes one more, stumbling over her last name. 😂♥️
Amira is a brilliant singer, with a heart of gold too. Second name is Villik hahgen. She is Dutch
If you want to see emotional performances, her O mio babinno caro with Andre Rieu is a tear jerker. Live in concert, Nella Fantasia is another. Gesu Bambino, and Amen both from 2023 are more recent stunners. At 13 she also delivered a beautiful version of Amazing Grace. There are plenty on her back catalogue to find.
I got chills everytime she sings Amazing Grace. You should check that one out. I am sure you will been blown away
You should see her singing Ave Maria at canisius church aged 11 with her mum and brother, and so much more of hers to watch
I agree. Given her age, probably her best performance, and definitely her most inspirational...
great to see ya hope you feel better Amera did a video when she was 10 with André Rieu thats a must see also Emma Kok singing Volia with Andre Rieu she has an amazing story pleas watch as Andra introduces her its so heart touching
At this concert Amira sang O Mio Babbino Caro then walked to the front of the stage to sing this. Amira will be 20 on March 27th.

You need to listen to all her work in Holland's Got Talent. Be sure to get subtitles. She's wonderful.
Congratulations! Nice reaction.
There are many amazing Dutch female singers. They are doing something very right over there!
Wait until you hear her version of Amazing Grace...by far the best version I ever heard.
Great reaction, so touching ! And yes, Amira was definitely outstanding.
The best definition I could give about this performance would be a three minutes long divine eternity...
But she did many others for the last ten years. 😊
Great to see you back. Amira won Holland’s got Talent at age 9. She sang Ave Maria in the semi final. She also sings another unbelievable version Ave Maria by William Gomez at age 11 in the Canisius Church in Nijmegen.

@@JaapFilius- she was singing to the Mother of our Saviour, the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Small correction: As far as I know Emma still lives with her family in Kerkrade in The Netherlands. That's about 20 kilometers from where I live.
i wonder if Amira has met her?
Debbie, just as you found a diamond when you found Angelina Jordan, you have discovered another diamond in Amira Willighagen! I hope you will definitely pursue this rabbit hole! I will say that what Angelina is to jazz, ballads, and pop, Amira is to opera, classical crossover, and Christian music! And they are both just as beautiful, humble, sweet, and strong inwardly as they are outwardly. Thanks for reacting to this darling girl (who will be 20 in March), and for being back with us! Take care of yourself and God bless you!
Amira Willighagen - "Ave Maria" Gomez (Canisius Church, Nijmegen) - Christmas Concert 2015
Now you have heard this angel sing. Listen to every performance to get the rest of her story.
Amira has the most beautiful voice to me
You might like to watch Amira perform the sound of music.
amira was a great admirer of patricia janeckova, who won 'talentmania' in 2010 in her native slovakia aged 12 with this same tune!! amira was devastated last year when she heard of the death of patricia from breast cancer at the age of just 25, six weeks after getting married!! i believe there was a mutual admiration between the 2 girls as they were growing up! there will be no competition between them, so take alisten to patricia's version as well!!
You need to watch her performance at Holland's Got Talent at 9. She is as spectacular as Angelina when she was 9....
Now a professional Opera singer of world renown known as the “Dutch soprano” she has a habit of bringing grownups to tears Cheers from Australia 🦘🇦🇺
Amira was discoverd ..on the Dutch " Holland got talent "! ..and also discovered by Andre Rieu ! .. His latest discovery .. also from a Dutch talent show ... is EMMA KOK ! ... a 15 years old girl ... singing " VOILA "..You want regret listening to that !

Stunning beautiful amira
Amira is just 20 this year - 2024!
She sings just like an Angel From God She won zHollsns got talent,when she was nine years old!
It was Hollands Got Talent,she won when she was nine years old!!
You need to hear her sing Amazing Grace,at thirteen years old
She will change you, if she hasn't already. always waiting for the next performance.
Amira is an old soul; Maria Callas comes to mind. She could be the best soprano ever if she chooses to be ❤.
Another Dutch GEM!!!!
You should also check out emma kok an other dutch 15 year old singer doing voila with andre rieu and his Orchestra. Dont skip the intro
I certainly endorse that. 41 million views plus umpteen RUclips reactions, which I have seen just about all of them. Yesssss…. Pls do a reaction of Emma with Voila, and then look up the lyrics. Greetings from New Zealand
greatest performance by any singer ever. A monumental moment
Dearest Debbie, I love your sensitivity. Amira is for me white princess as Angelina is black one. One in opera another one in jazz. They both have extrairdinary gifts.You know when you change order of letters in Amra's name you get Maria (Callas). If you wish to react to new artists (but do not forget about Dimash lol), I would suggest phenomenal young guitarist from my homeland Poland Marcin Patrzałek.

A voice from Heaven!!
Amira is not real Amira is a special Angel of God Amira is simply fantastic magnificent and fabulous Amira is incomparable unique definitely the most perfect and wonderful voice in the world Amira is a special phenomenon Amira the special Princess of God❤❤❤ thank my God for Amira❤❤❤
It's the sound and voice of an angel
Amira never fails to surprise us !!! / we have discovered lately this new voice / singer (SYNDIE CHRISTMAS) she won BGT 2024 very recent, u , must react to her believe me she blows everyone away !!! m watching you hahaha !!!
Now at the age of about 20 she ranks among the finest lyric sopranos currently performing and has been compared to Callas, Sutherland, and Tebaldi
Agreed - even compared to people like Galli-Curci, Pons, De los Angeles, Price, Flagstad et al, Amira must surely be rated as possibly the finest super soprano in human history.
Amira Willinghage was nine years old when she won Holland's Got Talent and had learned to sing opera via RUclips. She has now emigrated to South Africa with her mother and brother, which I think is a shame! (her mother is from South Africa, her father, Amira and her brother are Dutch.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Amira. Great reaction!!! I always advise reactors to go back and watch her at age 9--yes 9!!!!

Hi Debbie, welcome back and thank you for your nice reaction. You already have a lot of suggestions in the comments, but let me add one of my favs: O sole mio her duet with Patrizio Buanne.
Debbie, Amira is really a fantastic opera singer.
You might want to react to Jackie Evancho as well,who was runner up but should have won AGT as a 10 year old.
She is amazing as well.
Amira is a trained classical/ opera singer.
Jackie was never trained as a singer, but just has a natural
ability to sing opera but also sings pop.
She is 23 now and for whatever reason she never caught on with the younger generation, just like Amira and Angelina, but it sure as hell wasn't for the lack of singing ability.
So glad you're 'Back In The Saddle Again'.
Mark Vincent won Australia got talent when he was 15. His voice is magnificent
Debbie pronounce the A in Willighagen the same as in Amira.
It is inevitable that you were to hear about Amira! Her last name you got exactly right, since you needn't say it the Dutch & Afrikaans way (her 'twin' cultures) till you learn it, for her sake. Just like with Porsche we don't say the "e" as we aren't speaking in German.
Her latest release on to youtube of "Amen" highlights her Protestant faith which she speaks of very often, too, and the choir singing with her sing in their South African language: "Lord God Almighty, who was & is & is to come."
Her range is huge, and she is now starting music at uni at Pretoria, quite near her home town. In SA the school year is just starting now, and she spent last year touring her home country plus a foreign tour or two.
Amira is a gift from GOD ❤
check holland gots talent 2013 Amira 9 years O bambino Caro.
Great Song However Check out her first time at 9 years old. She is an opera singer
You now have been infected by Amira. Since her 3 performances on Hollands Got Talent, winning at age 9, she has been surprising everyone with her performances. don't miss any of them. all special in their own way. Its not often you get to hear an angel. Her first video, ruclips.net/video/qDqTBlKU4CE/видео.htmlsi=KReYqhsTG6UOYNzQ, then in the semi finals, she sang ave maria, ruclips.net/video/FUnrLMvpQLk/видео.htmlsi=7HXBR5wS9uf60YAv, from there I have watched every performance, over and over again, and you will too. Enjoy
She started at 9; No education at singing at all. She learn it all by her self by watching YT music videos !!
Amira was just 20 on March 17, having been born in 2004! At the time of singing that song she was 13. She initially taught herself to sing watching youtube! No vocal lessons.
cette chanson est magnifique 🎶. Sa voix est magique 😍.' quand j'entends cette musique ou la chanson, j'ai toujours les larmes aux yeux 🥺. Très bonne réaction 👍. A+ 💞
amira veio do ceu pra trazer paz a TERRA
ahh yeah kids you got to love them didn't see this in your playlist but this "kid" is phenomenal too she was 15 or 16 when she did this (she's around 21 or 22 now I guess) but if you haven't done this try "Tins S moonlght Sonata (3rd movement)"
She was 13
You did pretty good with her name. She s from Holland, so her last name is Dutch. In the Dutch language the w sounds more like a v.
Thanks for amira from holland take a look from her ave maria wihenvshe wuz 9 years holland got talent❤🇳🇱🇳🇱
Po prostu anielski głos ❤❤❤
So the world has a new Lyric Soprano.
Pronounced Viligoggin. She is self taught from internet videos, and her talent show videos when she was 8 are well worth a review.
Your prononciation of these 'terrible' Dutch names was not so bad. To help you out with "Willighagen": just use the "a" like in 'far,' or 'harm'. (and don't try to say our 'gggg' because your throat will suffer 😊). You can follow her from age 9 (Holland's Got Talent) and 10 (with André Rieu) right up till now, when she will be 20 soon. Last song: "Amen", with the "Ndlovu Youth Choir" (how's that as a tonguebreaker ?).😅
Si esto te sorprendió, deberías reaccionar a cuando tenía 10 años y cantó O Mio Babbino Caro con Andre Rieu. Saludos desde Ciudad de Guatemala en Centro América. Te comparto el link...ruclips.net/video/66-A2MyVDbU/видео.htmlsi=IurHp9GceHabODPo

She's a great singer! But for this dong ! It's Patricia Janeckova sings once upon a time in the west better
Your volume is so low, I can't hear you even with my speakers at max.. not worth trying..
Amira has a beautiful voice, and even more importantly she is fine a and caring person. I discovered Amira because I have been following Jackie Evancho since I saw her performance on AGT in 2010,Jackie was 10 years old then, and created a HUGE rush of Got Talent shows around the world searching for young children who could sing. Holland Got Talent got lucky in 2013 and found Amira. They built the whole 2013 season around Amira. It could not have happened to a better child, Amira not only had a beautiful voice, she was/is a wonderful caring person, very much like Jackie. Jackie emailed Amira after her first performance on HGT, and Amira was thrilled Jackie reached out to her, they have remained in touch over the years. Amira oftens performs songs she sees Jackie perform.
I would love to see your reaction to Jackie performing "Once Upon A Time In The West".
