The following is a trilogy of songs by Within Temptation. I'd like Jackie to consider them.
I hope Jackie never says farewell to her fans. It would be a loss to them and the world. Please try not to tear her down in anyway. Let her find herself, her way. When she allows the music to dominate, she is at her best. There's a line in Nightwish's "Dead Boy's Poem" that reads "Time will tell".

The third wasn't available to me.

catmando, I think I would prefer one who does not have to use power for the high notes more of a crooner type voice of a mellow timbre kinda baritonish yet dynamic with subtle vibrato to compliment Jackie, not compete with her. Hmmm...This will take some research. Oh, and not too tall. When it comes to very classical sounding music, as in this case, it is my opinion, she should "Seize the Day" with someone like Placido Domingo. Their previous efforts were excellent. i disagree , i think she needs young blood more to be in her teen years

Again, recently someone brought up that some OTT people equate Jackie to being an angel. Here are 2 songs I'd like to hear Jackie sing:

I just heard Katherine Jenkins singing Ode to Joy (An die Freude). I would like to hear Jackie sing that. Now that she is 18, she doesn't have to obey her mother's statement not to sing in German. Never mind, Lisa has had 18 years to drum into Jackie's head not to sing in German. Things won't change.

I believe this would be a beautiful song for Jackie.

I would like to see Jackie give "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen a shot.

I did write ups for the last 30 days of famous singers in history. Learned a lot and found a couple songs that were interesting. Here is one entry with a song that thought Jackie might could sing. This one sounded better on headphones so you could make out the subtle characteristics of the higher notes. I've abbreviated the original writeup:
August 2nd: Austrian lyric soprano Gundula Janowitz, 1937.
"Like all singers of real character, Janowitz's voice is instantly recognisable pure, flexible, almost instrumental, and warmed and lifted by a very fast vibrato that gives it enough body to ride an orchestra of Richard Straussian proportions. Hugh Canning, in his affectionate booklet-note, talks of her'lunar beauty of tone' and it is exactly that luminous quality of her voice that must have attracted her greatest musical patron, Herbert von Karajan."
🎞 Video: "the wonderful, ultramundane voice of Gundula Janowitz performing Richard Strauss's Vier Letze Lieder (1948) Four Last Songs. Directed by Herbert von Karajan, Berlin Philarmonic ... "Richard Strauss was a boy of six when he wrote his first song, and an old man of 84 when he completed his last.
The second was:
July 25th,1930,famed Canadian contralto Maureen Forrester.
Video: J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, 1727: alto aria, "Erbarme dich, mein Gott" (“Have mercy Lord, My God, for the sake of my tears”).
"Aching beauty and profound sadness coexist in this music, along with a mix of other emotions which transcend description and literal meaning.
Peter’s weeping is characterized by melismatic vocal writing and the pervasive presence of appoggiaturas, descending basslines, and clashing dissonances.
The conductor Sir Andrew Davis, who worked with her, described her Mahler singing in the following terms: "Singular beauty of sound, intensity of musical focus, and a haunting darkness of feeling."
She could fill the softest pianissimo with an eerie carrying power."

I really love Italian songs (although I barely speak the language) and here are some songs I would love Jackie to cover:
Ama Credi E Vai by Andrea Bocelli:
Senza Catene (Unchained Melody) by Il Divo:
L'Ombra Dell'Angelo composed by Yanni, sung by Katherine Jenkins:
Also many other songs from Yanni's Inspirato album.
Yanni and Il Divo are my favorites besides Jackie. It would be awesome if she does a collab with either of them one day.

Jackie has covered a couple of Streisand songs already. How about "Evergreen"? It's a bit tricky, but not particularly hard, and it's different enough that it stands out. She could do it very well, I think.

I was listening to Jackie's "Dream with me Concert" the other night - earphones on, laid back, taking in all the songs and sounds, thinking about the past and looking forward to what might be next, not only my life, but hers. I listened intently to "Imaginer", the melodic song of hope of a sunny world without hunger and war. Then I thought maybe it's bout time Jackie might consider singing "Broken Vow". I believe she is now old enough to understand and convey the song's content. It would be astounding if she could be accompanied by Conrad Tao.
