I think this song opens up a lot of space for Jackie. It seems to me like it would have fit nicely on Awakening. The wordless phrases at the beginning remind me of Vocalise and the most awe-inspiring part of the Vavilov Ave Maria. Jackie does that so well. It's one reason I posted in the thread of song's we'd like Jackie to sing Sheila Chandra's version of Lament of MacCrimmon. Set Me Free is lengthy and sounds epic, like MOTN. If Jackie sang SMF regularly, she would no doubt sculpt it and refine it, as she's done with MOTN over the years. I hope it becomes popular, so she has to sing it in concert. I agree. I especially like the way she overlaid her voice in the introduction of SMF, but which of course she can't do in a performance. She could easily shorten the song by not repeating the main verses after the instrumental piece and add that masterful finish for concert performances. I am in awe of her presentation of this majestic song.

Up to 29. What happened to Cabbage Juice et al? She'll show up inevitably with a few others. Btw, doesn't she post as Zamyrabyrd and a couple other akas? Of course the usual 30 to 50 dislikes that always put their silent 2cents in immediately haven't missed the opportunity. They are irrelevant. I call her Zamyrabies because she makes people to flop around and foam at the mouth when she posts.

I wonder, if Set Me Free will ever (officially) offered in the US or world wide via ITunes or Amazon and if there will be publicity in the US for Troy. I mean, Jackie is US Ambassador for this show, the composer and producer of this song are from US. It should be interesting for media, what happens there in Peking, the enormous investment the producers do, the half year training in Germany with riders from all of the world, the transport of nearly 100 horses to China, the presss conference and so on. I guess, this should be headlines in the entertainment sections of magazines and online media. Maybe, it will come, when the show starts in July.

I would expect it to be acknowledged in a PBS special of the event, or some equestrian sports special or the like. It would depend upon how the Troy event is presented.

There is another version made by Jackie Junkies Great work by JJunk. This is a truly grand song, "big" enough for Jackie's incredible voice. We'll see how it does in China. I wonder if DFos encouraged her to do this show?

I wonder if DFos encouraged her to do this show? This beginning sounds very much as a Enya song type which by the way is a very good fit for Jackies' voice as we all know in " only time " , many songs by Enya would have made a very nice album for Jackie IMO , indeed Ps But what do i know , i would have ran to Walmart >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

How many total views on this song on you tube ? , that will give you a idea where and how many of her fans there are now in tune with her , are they setting her free ? , hard question but needs to be asked as she is asking and looking .

EXCELLENT! Thank you yellowstone. The vimeo presentation is spectacular. What a prize this is! Classic Jacquelin Marie Evancho. Elegantly modest and powerfully glorious, then rising to the clouds with that crystal clear voice. You mean hi ho silver or Gold

I don't think Jackie recorded this song to see how many hits she could get and how many fans she has on you tube. Jackie is not a mainstream artist, and can't be compared to one. This isn't some single she put out for youtube. How do you know she is "asking and looking"? I imagine what's important to Jackie is that she freed herself. She can't do anything about those who won't let go of the image she chose to leave behind. She's moving forward.

I am a person that really hopes Jackie will continue even more so to putting her energy into pop. However, ..... "Set Me Free" is phenomenal and loudly demonstrates why she should keep classical near and dear.
This song is soooooo Jackie and the song and singer so deserve one and another. I say this because her singing of this piece says "My Classical Self Is Still Here".
All said, I still want here to explore her pop side because she really has yet to show how phenominal she truly is.
This is one hell of a bus ride for all .... regardless of price.

I too believe she should pursue more pop, but I believe it should be more like Euro-Pop, not American Bubble Gum style. She sings some Lara Fabian songs now. As for "Set Me Free", it is this Epic style of music that her voice is most suited for. They call it trailer or movie music. Basically it is modern neoclassical music. Seems like most of composers of this kind of music are writing music to include more soloists than ever before. Imagine Jackie singing for movies, high end video games, TV shows.

Of course she did not for that reason and as far as ""asking and looking "" , really ? you do not think she and her team do not check on all things related to her career on social media sites as UT but the truth is the views tell them who is still interested in her music and what way , its elementary a way to learn the fans and receive a sign , BTW do you notice if you reply to me with a positive you gets likes ?? PS she has how many a thousand followers on social media how many fans want or care enough to view her on this ?? so she must find why or why not to move forward to where ? , pop , country , classical , pop-rock , r&b pop , everything is done for a reason . she had 3 million views in one day 7 years ago so where have all the fans gone long ago

Personally, I doubt Jackie spends time reading youtube comments or puts much stock in the view counts if she even looks. I may be wrong, but neither seems particular significant to me as a measure of her overall popularity. How many of her fans and concert attendants or album purhasers don't comment on youtube? BTW are you implying that I reply to your posts to get likes? They seem all important to you. I don't care where she's moving forward to. The reason might be to explore her potential as she has thus far and to experiment, whatever the consequence. Only she knows. Whatever path she takes is fine with me.
