Girl Nervously Sings 'Somebody To Love' And Judges Freak Out Shortly Thereafter

Aug 13, 2020

Even though Jessica Richardson is young, there's no denying she has a big voice. As soon as the Essex native set foot on the stage of The Voice UK Kids back in 2017, she made it clear she was there for only one reason and that was to deliver an incredible performance that would blow everyone's minds. While Jessica was eventually eliminated, she made it to the semi-finals during the show's first season. 

From the very first note, her performance was filled with nothing except pure talent. She let every single moment count, letting nothing get in the way of that, and ensured she made a strong impression by choosing the perfect song. Jessica cleared her nervous mind before walking on stage by taking a deep breath. Once the limelight hit her as she stepped onto the stage, she melted everyone's hearts in the audience as a grin spread across her young face.

There she stood, ready to perform and let her talents shine, but the judges held her fate in their hands. Out of all the choices from which she could pick, she decided on one of Queen's greatest hits, Somebody to Love. She probably knew this choice was risky, but she also concluded this was the song was one that would ensure she would stand out from the rest. Once she sang three words, jaws began dropping and everyone knew this girl meant business.

It wasn't long before she was belting-out daring notes and flawless tones, letting herself loose for everyone to hear. Each judge had the option of either hitting the red button or leaving it alone but, as Jessica continued to sing through the song, the more tempting it became for them to slam down. The person facing them on the other side of their chair with that voice that was incredible was not only intriguing, but also a talent that was becoming more irresistible with every passing second.

Danny Jones, one of the panel judges, made an attempt at convincing Jessica that his team was the correct one to a part of by saying, "You just gave everyone in this room complete escapism, and made everyone's life better for a minute and a half, so well done... I can work with you and make you an artist in itself. All I want to do is take you and guide you in the right direction." Jessica isn't going to have any difficulty making it big in the music industry, and this is clear. She definitely nailed a song that's difficult to sing.
