14-year-old musical prodigy Jackie Evancho, who captured the hearts of everyone on Season 5 of 'America's Got Talent,' has released a music video for "Think of Me," her cover of the famous tune from Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Phantom of the Opera" musical. The classical-crossover sensation stunned 'America's Got Talent,' judges and audience members in 2010, when at just 10-year-old, her pitch-perfect soprano voice earned her a runner-up winner on the NBC talent show.
Her version of "O Mio Babbino Caro" dazzled the hit show's audience, its judges and host Nick Cannon, who told PEOPLE at the time, "That's the best performance I have ever seen on this show." The Pittsburgh native has since went on to sign a record deal with Sony Masterworks and has released her third studio album, "Awakening," on September 23rd. In addition to "Think of Me," Evancho also sings works from TV's "Game of Thrones," and the classic western film "Once Upon a Time in the West," as well as covers U2's "With or Without You."
Now, the teenager is impressing again. For her latest feat, the second track from "Awakening," Evancho, who began singing at age 7 after watching The Phantom of the Opera, is giving a nod to the classic by doing her version of the musical's ode "Think of Me." Evancho told PEOPLE recently, "From the moment I saw 'Phantom of the Opera' with my family, I knew I wanted to record 'Think of Me.' It's such a beautiful song."
The classical-crossover "Think of Me" is a delightful vocal performance, where the listener can easily recall Celtic Woman. Evancho's voice is one in a million. She displays her trademark range and her tone is crystalline and controlled. It is a polished and gorgeous vocal, and at times soothing and delicate. The final note that she belts out in the end proves that she is a true powerhouse vocalist. The young, operatic singer showed off her amazing talent one again and mesmerized with a stunning rendition of "Think Of Me."
