I know she’s a global phenomenon and China are very proud of her – I mean how many foreigners would be capable of winning the Chinese X-Factor? Here’s a quick clip to accompany my haiku for Haiku my Heart Friday…
Mary-Jess, voice like
a choir of angels singing
really “glorious”…
Please don’t laugh, but it makes me cry (or very nearly), when I hear her sing this wonderful song! Here’s another clip with a little more info., from Decca Records!

/ July 29, 2011Oh, Rosie…Mary Jess is wonderful. I love Chinese music anyway and her voice is just perfect! You do understand *hurts* … just so beautiful it can sometimes be overwhelming!!!!!!
Rosie
/ July 29, 2011That’s very true… and I did wonder if that’s what you meant, lol! I am in awe of her singing – so gifted, isn’t she?
Marit
/ July 29, 2011I never heard from her, but she sure has a ‘glorious voice’!!! And yes, there are songs that I can’t hear without crying. Music is so powerful!!!
Rosie
/ July 29, 2011Yes, music is truly inspiring and so moving… When I used to watch my DD dance, it often brought a lump to my throat. I think that’s why I loved Elton John’s Tiny Dancer so much! 🙂

/ July 29, 2011I had never heard of Mary-Jess either, but the Decca link has introduced me to her and I thank you for that. The first link said this video was not available in my country. Now I’m going to go to YouTube and check her out. Thanks for the haiku and video.

/ July 30, 2011I knew nothing about this artist before coming to your blog. She has an amazing gift and I am very grateful that you introduced me to her. How stunning her voice is when she sings in Mandarin as well, I believe that is the language she is speaking. Just lovely altogether. Thanks, Rosie!
xo,
Noelle

/ August 3, 2011Thanks for sharing this, Rosie! She does indeed have a voice like “a choir of angels!” The Chinese is exquisite, too! I love the sweet beauty of her face as well.

/ August 3, 2011Thank you for introducing me to Mary-Jess! This is the first time I’ve heard her, and her voice is sweet and golden! I couldn’t watch the first video (not made available in the U.S.), but the second video is fabulous. And I did tear up a bit when she sang Glorious with the orchestra behind her. Wow! What an incredible talent!
