When it comes to singer/songwriters on talent shows, you really never can judge a person right off the bat.
You may think you'll get some sweet older gentleman who's going to serenade you and then you actually get a crazy performance like this one. Or someone might be a great singer with zero skills in the writing department — or vice-versa.
Either way, you have to hand it to people brave enough to share their personally penned songs, like this father and son did on Australia's Got Talent. I know I'd probably be too shy to perform any of my own songs, as you have twice the chance of getting booed.
When Ella Shaw stepped on stage to audition for Britain's Got Talent and told the judges she'd be performing an original song on piano, you can tell they were skeptical of the 18-year-old girl. However, they were quickly stunned by Ella's beautiful voice that sounds reminiscent of jazz singers in decades past.
Her original song "Summertime" didn't only sound beautiful, the lyrics worked perfectly with her soft, yet amazing voice. Since Ella received a standing ovation from the audience and judges after her audition, I think it's safe to say we'll be seeing more of this songstress.
