I will preface this with saying that the point to this is not hearing someone with an amazing voice but rather that at just 12 this girl is doing this way better than others affected with her condition can do. She's overcome some specific traits that prevent those with Downs Syndrome from being able to sing. She's still young and could actually polish her skills to even be a singer one could enjoy hearing. In my opinion, listening as well as singing regardless of talent is one of the most cathartic, fulfilling things one can do and is a gift everyone should have. I'm not saying everyone should have a record deal but to be able to break out in song and project that energy is great. In that sense it's a beautiful thing that this girl had the backing and spotlight even if just this one time. :)

Don't be negative. She tried her best. Have you ever tried singing with Downs Syndrome and a sinus infection?

Nothin negative about it,
My point is,
She worked with the tune&push herself to strive for where she is now
The people that work with her-Probably kind of a therapy,Worked with her,
Having grown up with a speech impediment myself I can relate just a little,Maybe not the whole shebang of what she has to go through to get this far.
U know what,Actually
U try it.
