I agree. People always talk about Andrea McCardle but she points out that all 5 of the girls to originally play Annie were amazing especially Allison for being the youngest performer to play her during the original Annie Broadway run. She was only 10 when cast and up till then the actress were usually 13 who played her.
@@IlIllIIIlll You don't have to be an American to know life is hard everywhere you go. Have you not had years of disappointment hearing about world events? here are a couple of disappointments from places other than America... Australian bush fires of 2020, the Beirut explosion, Ukraine got wiped off the map by Russia. These aren't the years he is talking about, but it is easy to find things to be disappointed about if you want to. Look at the guy saying the pianist is a ped when no one else was even thinking about that, and think about why that was on their mind so quickly. You can't get more disappointing than people like that.
I wonder if she will compulsively sing it today, if she just hears a note or a bar from it. I wonder, because for 6 years, I had to keep a Nextel radio on my hip in my job as a courier. That was 15 years ago. But even today, if I hear a beeping sound that even remotely resembles it, my hand goes to my hip so I can answer. Pavlov would be proud, I suppose.
@@jakeballou5147 what are you talking about? no this is not ai generated and if you cant tell if a video is ai then you have brain problems of the smooth variety
What I can't get over is her facial expressions. She's really feeling the words and meaning of the songs. I'ts incredible, and that's not even taking into account her singing abilities. I love this and I don't even like Annie.
she's not just singing, she's acting with all the correct emotional facial expressions to match the lyrics while hitting all the notes in perfect pitch and time which is WAY more challenging and skillful
I was trying to find just the Allison smith portion of this performance last night. Then I wake up this morning to this video. Lol what are the chances thank you.
Not a coincidence, phones will hit you with targeted videos and advertising based off of what you search in the past also they pick up on things you say around your phone which you agreed too in your terms of service when creating profiles.
(walks to the stage) awww... she's adorable, that cute dress, the knee high socks, cute. She starts singing: She's gonna crawl through my laptop and murder me!
This is the definition of that. I havent seen anything quite like it. I don't even like Annie but YT has my card on this bc I've watched it about 20 times
Powerful performance from such a little person. I had a huge crush on her growing up because of Kate & Allie sitcom. No one has captured the essence of the song the way Allison did. Thank you Allison.
Allison's performance makes perfect sense when you learn how her mom used to pimp her out as Annie for children's birthday parties. "I don't want to sing at the Kentucky Fried Chicken in Suffolk County."
I'm 34 y/o and I came from foster care before they took parental rights from my drug addicted narcissistic mother....and the system is just as bad if not worse than my mom because they hid behind the seal of los angeles county....to all my foster brothers and sisters I believe in you!! Hang in there!!❤️🩹🙏🤧🛹💯
