Tonight, I bow to the Dutch.

Holland got talent.

More than talent, a career. She's set for life, if she wants it.

Ooopsala, very impressive.

For a 9 year old, one forgives that her voice was close to breaking at some high notes.

Let's see what becomes of her after the next 7 or 8 years have passed, and have passed on her physical and voice development as well. I wish her to still go to school, not doing the usual star-up-star-down stuff, and if that is what she wants to do: after school completing a classical training in singing and classical music. Because she would need it, the classical music market is extremely hard fought over, with the established stars enviously guarding their contracts - with her talent alone, she would not get far, but would get smoked. Her talent thus needs training to for lasting excellence. In the classical branch you can hardly live from just being talented and "very good". You need to be top.

A young talent with a bright future.

Alright, someone gotta say it.

Yes, very talented, very unusual, yet over-rated when you listen closely.
But: Kids do not belong on stage in my opinion.

I get sick every time I see things like that. Yeah sure she has fun at the moment for sure... but I highly question the long-time impact on her personality, development and future due to this friggin business. She is a kid. She should experience a childhood and not the early pressure of "deliver or fall behind" by managing school (most important, not open for debate) and additionally get involved into this time and energy consuming business. Lots of money is behind that crap, so much that no one really cares about her except, hopefully, her parents who, again hopefully, won't sign any stupid contracts... meh.

A more extreme example would be all these infant beauty queen crap. It is simply sick and too often crappy parents are behind this, not the kids.
Toddlers and Tiaras, anyone?

Just my 2 cents on this.
