A SCHOOLGIRL who brought her neighbours to tears with her rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone after last week's Clap for the NHS will sing again this evening.
A video of 11-year-old Jess McDonald singing the LFC anthem went viral on social media, having more than a million views.
Jess, who lives on Severn Road, Rainhill will be singing again tonight (Thursday).

The talented Rainhill St Anne's pupil, who has been singing since she was five, came up with the idea.
Jess first sang aged five, winning a schools competition at the St Helens Theatre Royal and since she has sang on stages including the Empire Theatre in Liverpool and at St George's Hall.

Mum Jackie said: "The idea came from Jess herself, she designed some fliers and said we've been out every week doing our claps for the NHS and how it might be nice to sing to the neighbours to cheer everybody up.
"We live quite high up and her voice carried. Most people were crying, it's quite overwhelming to hear her sing.
"We live one mile from Whiston Hospital and they've been in touch and they're going to open windows and doors.
"She's got a very special song to sing for them."
Jess will sing after this evening's clap at 8pm.
