When America first fell in love with Jackie Evancho's voice, she was just an unknown 10-year-old trying to make it on America's Got Talent .

Her version of "O Mio Babbino" dazzled the hit show's audience, its judges and host Nick Cannon, who told PEOPLE at the time, "That's the best performance I have ever seen on this show."


Now, the teenager is impressing again.


For her latest feat, Evancho, who began singing at age 7 after watching The Phantom of the Opera, is giving a nod to the classic by doing her version of the musical's ode "Think of Me."


PEOPLE has the exclusive premiere of the video. Watch below!


"From the moment I saw Phantom of the Opera with my family, I knew I wanted to record 'Think of Me,' " Evancho, now 14, tells PEOPLE. "It's such a beautiful song."


But don't expect only classical hits to appear on her third studio album, Awakening , which will be released Sept. 23.


"There are a few really fun surprises on the album," she adds. "I especially liked covering U2's 'With or Without You.' "


Want to see Evancho live? Her tour kicks off Nov. 5 in San Antonio.
