This girl, Charice Pempengco, is better than anything AI has ever produced. I sat here stunned watching her on Oprah yesterday. She's 15 years old. Unbelievable.

I got home and turned on the tv and watched that. Wow, she was incredible. Has such a deep, commanding voice. A future star.

This kind of talent doesn't need AI to get noticed.

Nope ... just a money-hungry parent willing to exploit her ;) (think Joe Simpson)

Oh, and WOW ... what a voice!

I've said this with young singers and I'll say it again... they don't have enough life experiences to relate to the songs. Yeah, she's got a good voice but she's rushing through the songs and she has no idea what she is singing. It's not karoke' but it's close. I think she could give Fantasia a run for her money after listening to her last night. That was crap and it was hilarious seeing the look on Simon's face after Fantasia's performance.

Karaoke? The girl in this clip? Not even close. That girl could beat anyone that i've ever seen on Idol.

Not singing but I saw this kid's videos last week. He's 9-10 and pretty amazing at the guitar.

We can agree to disagree but there are several off key notes. She has a good quality voice but she's not ready for A.I. -- maybe "America's Got Talent" but not A.I.

We'll have to agree to disagree because i wouldn't even consider backing off on this one... ;)
