That's the link. And I would truly like to know the truth, be it mean or nice. I am enrolling her in voice lessons, and I believe she is amazing, but she's my daughter, so I'm a bit oblivious to her being bad (if she is so). Anyway, I don't want the money for the lessons to go to waste if there's no hope. She is interested in other things too, so singing is not mandatory for us. If she has promise, I'd like to enroll her, but if it is a total waste of time, I don't want to waste money.
I just need some other points of view.

I think your daughter has potential. I have directed choirs and given private lessons for 35 years, so I have seen a lot of good AND a lot of bad singers. One of my students is now doing graduate work for his masters in voice at Florida State University. If you want to find if your daughter has potential, then one way would be for her to start singing that Sara Evans song WITH the CD or tape, and then about 30 seconds into it, turn down the sound all the way. Let her sing for about a minute on her own, then turn the sound back up. Listen to see if she is still on key and pretty close to where the song is. If she is, then she has real potential, but will need a lot of training and dedication by her! What she is doing right now is mimicking what she hears on the CD. She needs to develop her own voice and style, which she will with lessons. I would encourage her to take lessons for 1 year. After that, talk with her and see if she is still as excited about doing it or not. But tell her if she commits for 1 year, she has to STAY with it for one year to give it a fair chance! She looks young, so her voice will change and mature some as she gets older. Best of luck and maybe we will see her on American Idol or Nashville Star one day!

Hi,
May be your daughter can be an amazing singer.But it's not only good voice needed to learn.
The other points can be:
Her age-If she's 10 or 12 then it's not too much worth because she is a child and dosent knows that what she is doing can be a serious matter for her mother but if she's even elder then you must ask that does she has the determinition to be a singer. It's not an easy job.The main thing is how much effort is she puuting towards it and what she realy wants and which are the things in which she is the best.

Not bad...but not good yet. She is promising talent. Not afraid to use what she has got is always a good start.
Don't expect the lessons to repay themselves. You need more than just a pretty voice for that. Also a sh!tload of luck. But if she has fun with the lessons I think she will be a remarkable singer.

Get her out of country music. It doesn't help in vocal training. Learn the classics and all the theory in private lessons first. The pop, country and all that jazz comes after she knows how to sing.
She shows great promiss, keep up the good work young lady.

I am afraid that I cannot connect to the link. My email is poetinasia@gmail.com if there is another way to send it. I would like to hear. However, it seems irrelevant to the question at hand. The true question is should parents invest money to allow children to appreciate many types of learning experiences and allow a child to find what he or she is good at and appreciate the bredth of various endeavors no matter if he or she is particularly good at them, and my answer to that is an unequivocal yes. Please invest in the lessons but if they become tiresome to her and she would like to try piano lessons instead do not feel that you have wasted your money. There is no waste in appreciating the best aspects of being human

She definitely has some raw talent, but would really benefit from singing lessons. She has a jazzy, blues-type raspy voice, such as Nora Jones, and can develop her own personal style from that. Moreover, she has high potential for marketing purposes because she is young and attractive. I would allow her to pursue her singing career more if she fully understands what such a decision entails.

She has potential. Voice lessons would be good for her. She needs to learn real technique from a good teacher, not copy every flip and slide that Sara Evans is doing.

she has good potential. good tone and pitch. the one thing i would say is she needs to make sure and not sing through her nose. open up and support with the diaphragm, blah blah blah. voice lessons would be good for her! but she is young, so make sure she does not become overtrained!

She is good, she has the basics, she has the ear, but you got to keep on training!
