The other night, while flipping channels I stopped on the new auditions of America's Got Talent. Let me tell you; I was blown away by this unassuming man named Ryan Andreas.
It was magical; he had no experience and you could tell his nerves were with him at the interview. When he paused to calm his nerves before he sang; I got a little worried so, I said a little prayer of hope. Then magic happened; here he's singing 'Angel,' by Sarah Mclachlan. His version and voice were so beautiful; I was moved to tears and chill bumps. He made this lovely iconic song his own; one day I hope to sing this song as a duet by both artists.

That is one of my favorite songs!
No, I didn't see it, but I have heard nothing but good things about this new singer!
Oh Mal! Yes we saw that last week and were both in tears with this one. This song has a 'significant' meaning for Ron. This guy is great and I think he IS the one to beat!
FYI....Sarah McLachlan is from here in good ole Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Thanks for posting this.

It is a very haunting song isn't it, flowering? You know immediately by just the first few bars.
Sharon, He is my pick as the winner. I picked Kevin Skinner; the chicken farmer a couple of seasons back. Now I am hoping this young man grows into his God given talent.
Jim, Stunning eh? I was so moved I was bawling like a baby. So unbelievable to be watching the 'birth' of a career. So moving to be in the presense of such beauty. FYI, I love Sarah's works. Go Halifax!
Janet, I just hope his personality and humbleness does not change. Then again; I think he has an innocence which may not be corruptable. I hope. :O)
Thanks Essay, Nice to meet ya. I will pop over to your place and poke about. Welcome! Mal
I don't watch this show so sometimes I miss great performers. Thanks for sharing it with me.
Blessings
