Watch Plane crash survivor's powerful performance on America's Got Talent finale

Plane crash survivor, Kechi Okwuchi, continues to impress The America's Got Talent coaches with her performance on finale.

“Kechi, I just love you, everything about you. That wasn’t a song, that was an anthem,” Cowell said.

“We are only as good as the people who come on the show, and you define us. You made a difference to us, the people at home, and hopefully for yourself.”

Okwuchi joined the show after she received a "yes" from each of the four judges on Tuesday, June 6, 2017, with her performance of Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud.”

She made it to the lives with her rendition of Donny Hathaway "Song for You" and then to the semi finals with her cover of Katy Perry's "By the Grace of God."

For the semifinals, Kechi delivered an emotional rendition of “Don’t Worry About Me” by Frances.

On December 10, 2005, Okwuchi became one of the two survivors of the Sosoliso Airline Flight 1145 crash that took the lives of 107 passengers.

She has gone through over 100 surgeries, but has remained strong, encouraging thousands with her music.

The winner of the America's Got Talent show will be announced on Wednesday, September 20, 2017.
