Last year, the film adaptation of the musical Wicked took the entire world by storm. People of all ages found themselves singing along to songs like Defying Gravity. Well, many of us tried out best, at least. This song is incredibly challenging, and few people can pull it off quite like Cynthia Erivo. So, when an 8-year-old girl started to sing it during a public performance, folks likely did not expect much… but they were quickly proven wrong.

“OH MY GOD! 8 years old!” a third person exclaims. “When she hit that first ‘down’ my jaw dropped and got goosebumps. What an amazing talent she is! I hope all her performance dreams come true.”
With a voice like that, it’s truly no wonder so many people are suggesting that she be given vocal lessons. Since Amy is a professional herself, it’s safe to say she is in very good hands. In fact, we have a feeling this will not be the last we hear her unbelievably powerful, beautiful voice!
