‘The Voice of Italy’ Judges Were Absolutely Stunned When They Realized Who Was Delivering This Awesome Performance

Mar. 21, 2014 7:58am    Billy Hallowell

The judges on “The Voice of Italy” were in for quite a shock this week when a Catholic nun took to the stage to belt out her own distinct — and flawless — version of Alicia Keys’ popular tune “No One.”

The premise of TV show is that the judges — Italian singers Raffaella Carra, J-Ax, Noemi, and Piero Pelu — start with their backs to singers as they perform.

Then, if they like what they hear, the judges hit a button and their chairs swivel around. This ensures that participants are judged based on their singing talent — and not on their appearance.

An awesome voice.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

Love her voice and love her energy! 

I don't remember enough Italian (from growing up in Detroit) to make out more than 30% of what the judges thought.  Is there a translation/captioned version out there.  I failed at finding one.

If you watch it on YouTube you do get the option for English subtitles.
