Audiences at home watching the Coronation Concert were left saying the same thing after watching Nicole Scherzinger's vocal performance in front of the new King and Queen.
The Pussycat Dolls frontwoman sang a rendition of Reflection, accompanied by pianist Lang Lang, which was written and produced for Disney’s 1998 animated film Mulan.
And the singer gave an incredible vocal display wowing the 20,000 crowd at the concert - as well as the millions of others watching at home.
The powerful performance prompted applause from both the King and Queen – with the King turning to the Queen after the performance to say a few words.

She had also confirmed that she was going to be breaking new ground and performing the Disney song, prior to her performance.
She said: "I'm actually singing a song I've never sung before, It's called Reflections, from Mulan, the Disney movie and I love the lyrics. I feel like a real life Disney princess up there with the castle in the back. And the song is a beautiful song with the lyrics, so I wanna make sure I communicate those lyrics."

The singer said she found the coronation service on Saturday to be “remarkable”, as her home country of America does not have the same type of pageantry.
Nicole joined the likes of Take That, Lionel Richie and Katy Perry in gracing the Castle's East Lawn for our newly-crowned King and Queen.
