This Recreation is brought to you by America’s Got Talent. Back in 2010, a little girl from Pittsburgh showed up on stage and knocked out everybody with one of the greatest voices of our age.
Her first was “ “O mio babbino caro”
But then later, she gave us “pie Jesu” from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Requiem, which will leave you in stunned silence.
Jackie’s rendition makes you want to forgive the world.
Pie Jesu
Pie Jesu, (×4)
Qui tollis peccata mundi,
Dona eis requiem. (×2)

Qui tollis peccata mundi,
Dona eis requiem, (×2)

Requiem.
Pious Jesus,
Who takes away the sins of the world,
Give them rest.
Lamb of God,
Who takes away the sins of the world,
Give them rest,
Everlasting
Rest.
