Let's face it, when it comes to reality TV talent shows, there's no denying that a pretty face and sweet voice are a dime a dozen.
That's exactly why Chloe Paige of the The X Factor (UK) knew she had to do a little something extra when the competition started heating up and she was vying for a coveted spot in the shows "6 chair challenge." Paige decided to raise the stakes by singing an a cappella version of one of the best known songs of all time, which in turned raised some eyebrows from the judges' table.
In the following video, notoriously tough judge Simon Cowell told Paige she was a "brave girl" for taking on "Amazing Grace" without any accompaniment. Luckily, she didn't disappoint. Even the judges knew she was a little nervous before singing, but Paige's riveting performance was so emotional, she ended up making herself break down in tears.
While Paige definitely isn't the first hopeful to take on "Amazing Grace" a cappella-style on a talent competition show, her beautiful rendition and passionate response will definitely go down as the most memorable. Cowell even admitted that although he thought she was crazy at first, she deserves a chair and a spot in the finals.
