| I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing these performances with us. I found the Youtube video of the final for anyone that cant get your link to work (I had some problems so I thought Id just add this in case anyone else does) I hope this young lady does become a star someday so that we can all happily acknowledge Steinman helping someone new find sucess. Karine Hannah shoulda taken notice. http://youtube.com/watch?v=yasuRFymUSg > Last Friday it was the final of Talang 2007 on Swedish > television Channel 4.
