This Shania Twain classic gets a beautiful cover in this performance by aspiring artist Claudia B. ‘You’re Still The One’ may have been covered a thousand times, but you’ve never heard it like this. Watch the clip to see Claudia perform the song in her own unique and beautiful way.

‘They said, ‘I bet they'll never make it’
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong
Mm (you're still the one)’

The lyrics are a testament to the singer’s dedication to their loved one and that they’ve stood the test of time. It’s an ever-sweet song made ever the sweeter by Claudia B. She sings it with less of a country sound and without all the instruments and backup vocals that fans might be used to hearing. 

“Filmed outside in Nashville approximately 10 seconds before the camera died!! It was meant to be,” the young artist said. 

Claudia performs the song using just her stunning voice and piano, playing in a gentle outdoor setting under a canopy of shady trees with an electric keyboard. The natural setting gives the video a peaceful and intimate effect. 

Her version of ‘You’re Still The One’ is simplified, clear, and clean, but is nonetheless absolutely beautiful. It’s a stripped-down cover that makes the song feel almost brand-new in the best way. It’s not glamorous, but it’s certainly serene, elegant, and lovely. As you watch, you can tell that Claudia loves to make music. Her artistry almost begs the listener to restart the video over again after it plays. Her voice is truly a gift, and her listeners are grateful that she’s sharing it. 

“It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loves: I held him, and would not let him go…” Song of Solomon 3:4

This teen’s Ed Sheeran cover shines on the AGT stage. Let me tell you about this sweet little country soul who walked onto the America’s Got Talent stage and absolutely melted every single heart in the room. His name is Chase Varnes, he’s just 13 years old, and y’all—he’s the kind of kid that makes you want to stand up and cheer like you’re watching your own baby on stage.

Chase grew up on a farm—yes, a real one, with dirt and chores and everything—and you could still hear that small-town charm in his voice as he introduced himself to the judges. Just this regular ol’ kid with freckles, cute hair, and a dream so big it could fill the whole sky.

Before he even sang a note, Chase shared that he’s been playing drums since he was four years old, and two years ago, he decided to teach himself guitar on his own. No lessons, no spotlight. Just a kid, a dream, and some worn-down strings.

And then… he started to sing.

It was an original song, one he’d written himself, and you could see the nerves written all over his sweet face. He was barely a minute in when Simon Cowell raised his hand and stopped the performance.

You could feel the crowd hold its breath. My stomach dropped. I wanted to crawl through the screen and hug that boy, tell him not to give up.

But then Simon leaned forward, softened his tone, and said “I didn’t like the song… but I like you.”

And that’s when the magic happened.

Simon gave him another shot, and Chase picked ‘Life Goes On’ by Ed Sheeran. And friend, when I say that boy lit up the stage, I mean it.

He came alive. Like something in his spirit caught fire.

His voice rang out pure and strong, full of country grit and heartache way beyond his years. He sang with this kind of beautiful vulnerability that said, “I’ve been through things. I’ve felt pain. But I’m still standing. I’m still singing.”

And the crowd? They were on their feet.

The judges’ jaws dropped. And Chase? He didn’t just sing. He showed up. With fire in his eyes and grit in his soul, this young farm boy did something most grown adults would never dare—he kept going after being stopped, rejected, and rattled. And he did it with grace, courage, and a whole lot of heart.

He didn’t just make people happy. He made people believe. He had the audience on their feet! He made them believe in grit, in second chances, and believe in the power of showing up, even when it’s scary. Because, as Chase reminded us: Life goes on. And sometimes, that second song, that second try? It’s where the real magic lives.

“Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.”  Zechariah 4:10

This woman’s fingerstyle guitar ‘Here Comes the Sun’ cover is so beautiful, you have to hear it for yourself. You don’t need a voice to make people feel something. Just ask Gabriella Quevedo, a Swedish fingerstyle guitarist whose music will stop you in your tracks and wrap itself around your heart.

One of her most popular videos is a stunning cover of The Beatles' “Here Comes The Sun.” She doesn’t sing it. She doesn’t need to. With nothing but her acoustic guitar, Gabriella manages to make the instrument sing for her. And the result? It’s like the song is being born all over again—hopeful, warm, healing.

Seriously, you can almost hear the lyrics as she plays. It’s that good.

The way she plucks each string feels intentional, almost tender, like she knows you’ve had a hard week and wants to remind you that the sun really is coming back. Somehow, her fingertips carry all the emotion of the song—the ache, the relief, the joy of a new season breaking through.

And once you hear it, you’ll want to listen again. And again.

Gabriella grew up in Kinna, Sweden, in a music-loving family. Her dad, originally from Argentina, played guitar too and taught her the basics when she was young. By the time she was 12, Gabriella had fallen in love with fingerstyle guitar, where melody, chords, and rhythm are all played at once. She taught herself by watching videos online. 

Eventually, she started uploading her own covers to YouTube. Her unique sound and song choices quickly drew a following, and today? Gabriella has over 1.6 million subscribers and nearly 300 million views on her channel.

She brings the soul to each note she strums. She turns a guitar into a voice—and that voice has something gentle and true to say: you’re going to be okay.

So if you’re looking for a moment of peace today, something pure and joy-giving in a world that often feels too heavy, go listen to Gabriella's cover. Let it fill your room. Let it remind you that healing can be quiet. And that sometimes, the most beautiful songs are the ones where the guitar does all the talking.

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5

There’s a quiet kind of beauty that happens when hearts gather — when strangers join hands, voices rising in harmony, weaving grief into hope. Watch this endearing and sweet video as fans gather to sing ‘God Only Knows’ after Brian Wilson’s death. 

Sometimes, there are no words. Just music. People came together, not for a concert but to sing. To feel. To hold space for grief, the best way they knew how. And y’all... it was one of the most moving things I’ve ever seen.

They sang "God Only Knows" with Choir! Choir! Choir! in rounds, slow, raw, and full of heart. And they didn’t sing it alone. This incredible group, led by Nobu Adilman and Daveed Goldman, stepped up and did what they do best: they turned the audience into the performers. It’s what they’ve been doing since 2011, traveling all over the world, getting everyday folks to sing together and create something bigger than themselves.

And that song? Whew. It hit differently. Because sometimes we don’t have answers. We just have the ache. We just have the empty. But in that ache, in that empty space, music makes room for us to sit with our sadness and still say, “God, I trust You anyway.”

Watching them sing, voices layered and echoing under twinkling lights, it felt like the whole world slowed down and breathed together for just a minute. It was more than a tribute. It was a reminder. That music heals. That grief is shared. That we were never meant to carry loss alone.

And friend, if you’re grieving too, maybe over someone you’ve lost, or just the weight of what life has been lately, go find a song. Let it hold your heart. Sing it, even if your voice cracks. Especially if your voice cracks.

Because only God knows why — and sometimes, that’s the only truth we need.

“Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.”  Isaiah 46:4

Listen to these precious young brothers perform a heartwarming duet to the song ‘What a Wonderful World.’ The performance is a whole family affair, with the brothers singing together and their mother playing the keyboard alongside them. What a sweet sight to see!

‘I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world’

This is one performance that will really pull at your heartstrings! And it reminds “us all of something we deeply need: hope, beauty, and peace,” reads the caption of this YouTube video. “In a world filled with conflict, loss, and uncertainty, their innocent voices brought a moment of stillness — a reminder that there is still kindness, love, and light on this Earth. Thank you for listening. We hope it touches your heart.”

The talented performers in this video are part of the Protsenko family. The little boys singing are Nicholas and Leo Protsenko, and their mother is Ella. They also have an older sister, Karolina, who is a very talented violin player. Many people from around the world love watching this family share their music online.

“Nicholas and Leo, you brought happy tears to my eyes,” writes one person on YouTube. “I have made watching a video or two of the extraordinarily talented and loving Protsenko family part of my morning routine! It always puts me in a great mood!”

“Nicholas and Leo, beautiful performance. You guys make my day. God Bless both of you!” comments another person online.

This is one family where everyone has a deep love for one another and music. Karolina, the oldest of her siblings, is a talented young musician who plays violin, sings, and also loves to read and bake. Leo is known to pick up any instrument and sing along whenever he hears the music. He’s also very good at playing piano. Nicholas, the youngest of the bunch, also plays piano and uses his voice to add music to the family.

We hope you enjoyed this sweet rendition of ‘What a Wonderful World’ today!

A 5-year-old plays piano with stunning precision and passion. The little guy shows he has truly been gifted with eye-popping musical talent beyond his young age. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to hear and see this young man play the piano with the skill of someone much older than him.

Musicians are a talented and skilled group of people; there is no debate about that. Routinely, musicians will leave you completely and utterly blown away by their masterful performance with this or that instrument. Or maybe you’ll be near tears following a stunningly beautiful duet or solo rendition of a beloved song.

To play that beautifully and perform that well requires an incredible amount of intense, highly focused practice, hard work and determination. Not many people can pick up an instrument and play as if they’ve been doing so for years. But what about the people who can do that? A clip posted on YouTube tells of a young man, a 5-year-old, who is, without a doubt, a piano prodigy.

Alec Khajadourian appears to have a natural gift and talent for the piano. He seems to have been immediately drawn to the instrument. The clip shows the now-5-year-old as a baby standing at the piano, pounding on the keys, getting a feel for the instrument. Even at that young age, he was evidently interested in the piano, and that interest has only grown over the years.

The video explains that Alec is already an award-winning pianist at just 5 years old and is set to play at Carnegie Hall in New York City and the Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, California.

Alec, his mother explains, has perfect pitch and can easily replicate a note.  

“Whatever note he hears, he can identify perfectly,” Alec’s mother said. “He can sing it or play it.”

This young man is thoroughly impressive, and seeing what he can accomplish as he grows and develops musically will be exciting.

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

A father-daughter dance duo brings joy with every step of their adorable routine. The pair dazzles as they show off their fancy footwork, never missing a step. Watch the short but thoroughly enjoyable clip to see the father-daughter duo’s captivating dance number.

Dance is an art form that anyone at any age or stage in life can do. There are many types and kinds of dance, and there’s likely to be something for everyone. Of course, just because you can do something, does that always mean you should?  Some would say yes, while others will probably answer no, choosing to leave the dance floor to people who know what they are doing.

I am of the mindset that dance floors should be avoided unless you know what you’re doing, and that’s for a couple of reasons. The first is that performing dance moves and attempting footwork you are not familiar with could possibly result in an injury. But the most important reason is that no one wants to see someone dance who obviously has no idea how to dance. It’s painful and hard to watch.

However, we don’t have to worry about any of that with Ben and Zara’s latest video. The popular father-daughter pair strut their stuff in a highly choreographed dance routine that will have you smiling from ear to ear. Like all their other clips and videos posted on social media, this one is also delightful and will almost surely get you dancing with them.

While they typically post short clips of themselves mouthing and faux singing along to some beloved, classic tunes, they show they are multi-talented in this video. Not only can they hysterically mouth songs near and dear to the hearts of many, but they both have plenty of moves.

Psalm 149:3 “Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.”

One dance crew’s routine earned a Golden Buzzer and big smiles on America’s Got Talent. The talented gentleman dazzled with their fancy footwork, wowing everyone with their moves. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to see the skilled dance troupe’s captivating routine.

While many people may try, not everyone can dance. Not everyone is blessed with that skill set. Sure, some might find themselves on a dance floor at one time or another, but it’s a surface that is not meant for everyone. Sometimes, it’s best to back away and avoid the dance floor. Seeing some people attempt to bust a move can be downright painful. Dancing should only be left to those who know what they are doing.

When dancing is done right by people who know how to do it, it can be a thing of beauty. It’s arguably the most stunning and captivating art form. When someone who can dance shows their fancy footwork, it can be an utterly captivating display. That happened when a group of middle-aged gentlemen demonstrated their moves for the judges and studio audience on America’s Got Talent.

The four guys, the Funkateer Dancers, mentioned they had been together for 45 years and had won their high school’s talent show with their sweet dance moves. After their quick back-and-forth with the judges, it was time for the guys to do their thing.

Seconds into their routine, the guys have the judges and studio audience smiling and cheering. Their choreographed number is mesmerizing. The guys move as one, with all four moving simultaneously, never missing a step or making a false move.

All four judges absolutely loved their dance routine and proceeded to shower the guys with compliments. Then, the show’s host, Terry Crews, did something no one saw coming. He raced down to the judges’ table and slammed the Golden Buzzer, sending confetti raining down on the dancers.

Psalm 149:3 “Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.”

This mom and 4-year-old melt hearts with ‘You Are My Sunshine’ duet. Some moments don’t just warm your heart—they wrap it up in a soft blanket, pour it a cup of cocoa, and tuck it in with a lullaby. And friend, this is one of those moments.

Somewhere in the middle of the everyday hustle—cars honking, people passing by with coffee in one hand and their phones in the other—there’s a little boy named Nicholas sitting in a bright blue plastic chair on the sidewalk. His tiny feet barely touch the ground, and in front of him? A bold red piano that looks like it was made for joy. And beside him, kneeling low, is his mama.

He’s only four and already, the gift runs deep in his veins like it was passed down in lullabies and lullabies before that. His sister’s already known—like the kind of “known” where people recognize her in grocery stores and send her videos viral. But today? The spotlight belongs to Nicholas.

As the crowd moves around them, his mama leans in close, whispering lyrics gently in his ear, and he begins to sing:

‘You are my sunshine, my only sunshine’

His voice is small, sweet, and a little unsure at first—like a bird testing its wings. But oh, what a sound. You can’t help but stop and watch. The innocence of it. The tenderness. The trust between this mama and her boy. It’s not just a song—it’s a heart offering. A reminder that the world still has soft things, still holds beauty in its cracks.

She nods and encourages him, her eyes never leaving his. She’s not worried about perfection—she’s there to be his anchor while he soars. And Nicholas? He taps out each note on that red piano with the careful confidence of a child who knows he’s loved, deeply and wildly, by the woman right beside him.

I’ve learned over the years that it’s not the fancy stuff. Not the Pinterest-perfect crafts or packed lunchbox notes. But the whispered words in the middle of a noisy world. The steady presence of being there for your babies even when they’re adults. The kneeling low beside your child in public because you’d rather the world see his gift than notice your hair’s a mess or you forgot mascara.

It’s giving your child your full attention when everything around you says, “Hurry.” It’s staying still long enough for music to bloom.

And this song, it just honestly hits different when a little boy with nothing to prove sings it to his mama. Because you realize he means it. And she does too. It’s the melody of their everyday. The warmth tucked into their mornings. The soft place they come back to. It’s how we all feel about our kids and grandkids. 

We all need moments like this. Moments that remind us that love doesn’t always show up in grand gestures. Sometimes, it shows up in a blue plastic chair, a red piano, and a mama on the sidewalk—whispering courage into the ear of her little boy.

So if your heart feels heavy today, go find this video. Let Nicholas and his mama remind you that goodness is still all around. That love—real, rooted, sunshine-sweet love—still breaks through the noise.

And maybe hum a little to yourself:
You are my sunshine…
Because sometimes, we all need to remember, we’ve still got songs left to sing.

Zephaniah 3:17 “For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”

Oh my! You have to hear this! ‘You Can All Me Al’ was transformed into a Jazzy 1920s throwback you have to hear.  I was folding laundry, sipping lukewarm coffee (when is it ever warm these days), the usual symphony of my Monday morning, when suddenly—bam!—this jazzy, toe-tapping, cheeky little tune floated through the speakers like a whisper from the Roaring Twenties, and I dropped the socks and just listened and watched. Robyn Adele Anderson, in all the vintage glory of her outfit, took Paul Simon’s ‘You Can Call Me Al’ and wrapped it in a flapper dress and feathered headband. And mercy, it sings.

You know that feeling when something old and something new shake hands and waltz through your kitchen? That’s what this cover is. A playful throwback to a time when jazz ruled the airwaves and joy was worn like pearls around your neck. Robyn’s voice—bright, sassy, laced with just enough mischief—steps into the lyrics like they were meant to be crooned under a golden spotlight in a smoky speakeasy.

The horns? Swanky. The rhythm? Irresistible. The vibe? Like a Charleston party broke out in the middle of your Wednesday, and you’re just lucky enough to be invited.

She sings “If you’ll be my bodyguard, I can be your long-lost pal,” and suddenly you’re dancing around with a dish towel, grinning like someone who’s never known a bad day. That’s the thing about music like this—it sneaks in, warms your bones, and makes the ordinary feel like a celebration.

Robyn apparently has this uncanny gift of taking what we thought we knew and dressing it in charm and sparkle. She turns nostalgia into something brand new. And honestly? In a world that feels heavy some days, this song is a light thing. A fun thing. A reminder that joy can still catch us by surprise, even if it's in the form of a jazzy bass line and a wink from a YouTube video.

So yes, go listen. Right now!  Dance in your socks. Smile till your cheeks hurt. And thank the good Lord for artists like Robyn, who give us reasons to feel a little more alive in the middle of our beautifully ordinary lives.

Psalm 28:7 “The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.”

‘The Sound of Silence’ gets a powerful revival in this chilling performance by young artist Giulia Falcone. The young woman gives the song a new style of her own making while staying true to the lyrics. Watch the clip to see the stirring performance. 

In a video posted on YouTube, the 19-year-old Italian singer appears dressed in dark clothes against a black background. It adds a unique and fitting ambience to the song and its somber message. She sings with care and lets her voice be heard loudly in each word of the song. She also provides harmony for herself, singing in different tones that complement her main vocals. 

‘The Sound of Silence’ was written by Paul Simon of Simon & Garfunkel in 1964. It’s about indifference and the growth of solitude. Paul seemed to sense that community was a dissipating concept in America. 

“This is a song about the inability of people to communicate with each other,” Art Garfunkel said about the song years ago. 

Some of the lyrics are: 

‘Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you”
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence’

Community is important for a society to function. With isolation comes division. Several Bible verses, like Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 and Psalm 133:1, speak about the importance of community and fellowship. 

“This song speaks in a quiet but powerful way, and I tried to approach it with simplicity and respect, letting the words and music guide my voice,” Giulia said. “It’s one of those pieces that invites us to pause, listen, and reflect — and I hope my version will offer you a moment like that.”

Giulia has accomplished what she set out to do. Her version of the song certainly encourages reflection and soaking in the meaningful lyrics. She’s truly done a beautiful job with her cover of this important song. 

“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” Psalms 133:1

One group’s dancing cat routine on America’s Got Talent is purr-fect. While dressed as felines, the performers pulled off a fun and delightful, choreographed dance number that had everyone smiling and cheering. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to see the dance troupe’s captivating routine.

Thousands of people try out for programs like America’s Got Talent, The Voice and American Idol every year. All those would-be contestants hope their talent will impress and compel the judges to vote them onto the show and move them to the next round of the competition. For some, that works out, but for many others, a much larger portion, that does not happen.

Those popular shows are most concerned about finding the best, most gifted and most skilled individuals. They are talent shows, after all.  But it also doesn’t hurt to surprise the judges and catch them off guard with something they have likely never seen before. As a performer, it’s always a good idea to have a little flair that will help you stick out and be memorable to your audience.

A clip posted on YouTube shows one act that the four judges on America’s Got Talent will surely not forget for quite some time. The handful of dancers made their way out onto the stage dressed as cats and proceeded to put on a show-stopping, completely captivating performance. Everyone in the audience, including the judges, was cheering and smiling, having a good time. 

Even if you didn’t think their routine was that great, you likely still couldn’t take your eyes off what was happening on the stage.

If nothing else, the group’s act was utterly unique and different. They took a chance and didn’t just come out on the stage and give yet another mediocre performance while singing a beloved, well-known tune. They at least get points for being unusual, right?

Psalm 149:3 “Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.

Lucy Thomas mesmerizes with her stunning cover of ‘Someone to Watch Over Me.’ The 21-year-old sings with a dazzling cadence that’s amazing to hear. Watch the clip to hear the beautiful cover. 

The 1926 song is a timeless classic that was written by George and Ira Gershwin for the musical “Oh, Kay!” It’s a short, sweet song that gets straight to the point. The singer wants someone to protect her and guide her and feels impatient in her longing—a message that many women can relate to. 

Some of the lyrics are:

‘There's a somebody I'm longing to see:
I hope that he
Turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me’

In the film ‘Oh, Kay!,’ Gertrude Lawrence’s character, dressed in a maid’s uniform, sings ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’ to a rag doll she holds, which emphasizes her loneliness. It’s an emotional song that makes you feel a surge of bittersweet emotions, especially when sung by the artistic prodigy Lucy Thomas.

In the video Lucy posted on YouTube, the young singer radiates elegance with a simple necklace, gown, and black elbow-length gloves. It’s obvious to see that she is very skilled. She sings with long and slow vibratos, holding notes for several seconds before moving on to the next part of the music piece. Her representation of ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’ honors its nearly 100-year-old legacy. 

For those who haven’t met their soulmate or perhaps even lost them, just know that God is watching over you. He loves you and wants you to put your trust in him. He works in ways that are often unknown to us, but he is certainly working. 

“The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.” Psalms 18:2

Check out this show-stopping routine on ‘America’s Got Talent’ of a unique dance troupe that has redefined choreography! The talented group is called Urban Theory, and their viral videos have taken over the internet. For their AGT audition, the dance crew performed to ‘Blinding Lights’ by The Weekend, ‘Rhythm of the Night (Ricky Marano Remix)’ by Corona, and more.

As Urban Theory takes the stage, everyone in the group is wearing white shirts, black pants, blue gloves, and sunglasses. They are all completely synchronized in not only their outfits, but also in how they move their bodies. It is quite captivating to watch!

“Oh, this is so cool!” someone says in the audience right as the show starts.

As the performance continues, the AGT judges cannot help but smile and dance around in their seats at their table. From the looks on their faces, judges Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Howie Mandel, and Mel B are very impressed! You cannot help but be mesmerized by the moves that Urban Theory brings!

Halfway through the performance, the hands in the dance crew pick up lights and start to make designs that glow in the dark. What a stunning sight to see!

“I can't even begin to imagine how long it took to practice that. It was amazing!” one person comments on YouTube after watching the performance.

“Wow, that’s beautifully done! World class choreography and definitely have that unique edge from other dance troupes! Well done guys,” another person writes online.

Watching Urban Theory on the AGT stage really feels like you are viewing a colorful kaleidoscope. This is one creative dance troupe that we are excited to see perform again!

We hope that you enjoyed watching this performance from ‘America’s Got Talent’s’ 20th season, and it was able to bring you some joy today!

Check out this talented band rock the stage at ‘America’s Got Talent’ with their bold take on Adele’s ‘Set Fire to the Rain.’ The group is called Girish and the Chronicles, and they brought the audience to their feet with this rock and roll cover. You will be blown away by this performance!

‘I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
It was dark, and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me’

What a fantastic audition, one that this band has been working towards for many years.

“We have been dreaming of performing in America ever since we got introduced to rock and roll,” shares Girish and the Chronicles. “This is the biggest opportunity of our lives. There’s a million dollars at stake, so this has to go well.”

Girish and the Chronicles start off with a bang, and the audience is absolutely stunned by the music and energy that the band brings to the stage. The audience immediately stands to their feet and starts clapping and dancing along to the music.

What an incredible performance of ‘Set Fire to the Rain,’ and one that greatly impressed the judges.

“I love that! You guys look amazing. You sound amazing,” Sofia Vergara says. “I mean the whole audition was on point.

“I don’t know what it is about you, but I think you’re one of my favorite acts so far this season,” says Mel B.
 
“I do like this kind of rock,” Howie Mandel shares. “You come from the other side of the globe which is so traditionally American. It was so beautiful.”

And Simon shares his final thoughts with the band after their amazing audition. “You can’t fake the reaction behind us. What we just felt behind us from the audience was real. I could feel it. They liked you, we liked you. And your voice is really, really good by the way.”

After four yeses from the judges, Girish and the Chronicles are on their way to the next round of AGT!

Check out this bright young talent as he performs ‘Stand by Me’ on guitar. Leonardo Patrick, an 8-year-old virtuoso from Manchester, England, strums in the streets, and his guitar gifts will knock your socks off!  

Leonardo is joined by his brother, who looks to be younger than he. Brother doesn’t play or sing, but he stands—sorta—and supports his brother throughout the song. Leonardo doesn’t appear to lack confidence, but having his brother next to him totally makes sense for this tune!

The two wear t-shirts, matching caps and sneakers, and jeans. Twinzz, by the way, is a UK-based fashion brand specializing in headwear, premium apparel, and activewear. They are adorable; however, the way they present themselves to the masses on a busy day in a big city is not the real story!

Here, Leonardo plays ‘Stand by Me’, a 1961 hit sung by Ben E. King. The perennial favorite may very well have been originally recorded before either of Leonardo’s parents (or even his grandparents) were born! He has performed ‘Layla’ by Eric Clapton, ‘Toto’ by Africa, ‘Have You Ever Seen the Rain’ by Creedence Clearwater Revival, ‘I Shot the Sheriff’ by Bob Marley, and ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’ by Guns ‘N Roses, among many others. Sweet! 

Leonardo’s fans love hearing the young boy play classics from multiple decades; there are 243,000 of those fans subscribing to his YouTube channel, which, of course, is managed by his parents. This number is particularly impressive when you consider that he only began uploading videos in May, 2024! 

Often adding his own touches and twists to the songs he plays, Leonardo adds to this one about 30 seconds of Sting’s ‘Every Breath You Take,’ starting at 1:00. This kid is amazing! Words like ‘prodigy’and ‘superhuman talent’ and ‘miraculous fingers’ have been used to describe Leonardo’s gifts.  

Since hashtags are important, notice #fibonacci.  At one time, Leonardo went by @leonardo_fibonaccipatrick2226 on Instagram. This account no longer exists, and Leonardo’s current instragram just includes his first and last names. But one wonders… Is Fibonacci Leonardo’s middle name or is it a reference to the Fibonacci Sequence, uncovered by Leonardo Bonacci? Leonardo Bonacci, nicknamed ‘Fibonacci’ identified an almost-magical numerical pattern that has sometimes been applied to music. 

Astute Commenter @ScottT-x1s wrote, ‘You sneaked back out on the street without warning and knocked this right out of the park with Feeling, Fantastic Finger work, and Fibonacci...standing by you. Excellent Leonardo on so many levels. Loved that arrangement, original, I'm sure.’

Magical or miraculous, Leonardo Patrick has been blessed with an uncommon talent. We look forward to hearing much more from this young man!

Check out this talented family band’s cover of the song ‘Garden Party’ by Ricky Nelson. The family band is called Colt Clark and the Quarantine Kids, and they can really rock out! This is one awesome rendition that will leave you smiling.

‘I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
But no one recognized me, I didn't look the same’

What a great cover! And all of the family members look like they are really enjoying themselves while they play together. 

The Clark family is made up of Colt, a professional musician, Aubree, a photographer, and their three children. They homeschool their two sons and daughter, and part of what they do together is learn to play a new song every day. They decided to record some of their performances and share them online, and we are so happy that they did. Because this family band is just so fun to watch!

“Tonight's song is a little bit different from what we usually play, but sometimes different is good!” reads the caption of their YouTube video. “Colt told us the story behind this song and its meaning and now the words make more sense. I always thought it was just a random list of people at an actual garden party. Apparently, ‘garden party’ is about the 1971 concert at Madison Square Garden when Ricky Nelson wasn't treated very kindly by the audience. Hope you enjoy our version.”

Colt Clark and the Quarantine Kids have many fans online, and hundreds of people have shared about how much they love this cover of ‘Garden Party.’

“If this doesn’t touch you then check your pulse! This is such a great cover of a Ricky Nelson song!” comments one person online after watching the music video. “Such an amazing group of musicians who have never done a bad song! Keep the music coming! I truly love and appreciate it!”

We hope you also enjoyed watching this cover of ‘Garden Party’ today!

You’ve never heard Africa like this before. They get a stunning makeover in this trio’s instrumental cover. No lyrics. No words. Just the soul-deep hum of strings stretched across time and desert air—and somehow, it’s enough to make your heart sing.

Simply Three, the genre-defying trio made up of violin, cello, and bass, takes Toto’s iconic anthem and turns it into something entirely their own—bold and sweet, with every note a sounding like a serenaded prayer across the dusty wild. The video opens with sweeping drone shots of a dusky, dry desert landscape, and it instantly takes me back to the red clay earth of Arizona, where I grew up. Sand and ruddy dirt, tall saguaros lifting arms to the sky like a chorus worshiping in stillness.

And then the strings begin.

No voices needed, because the guys playing these instruments speak. The bass thrums like a heartbeat. The cello dances and then soars. And the violin? It feels like sunlight spilling across a silent chapel—enough to make a bride pause and waltz barefoot down the aisle with joy. But if you listen to it long enough, you might feel like me; you might not know why you're crying, but you are.

Formed in 2010, Simply Three has built a kingdom of beauty with just strings and grit. They’ve covered everything from Coldplay to Adele, stacking up over 330 million views on YouTube and being applauded by the likes of OneRepublic and Janelle Monáe. Their music breathes life into familiar melodies, reminding us that sometimes, less really is more. No flashy gimmicks. No vocals. Forget the smoke, the lights, and everything else. They make it spectacularly simple. Just three artists, classically trained but wild with imagination, carrying a song like Africa into something deeper.

And maybe that’s what we all need right now. Something familiar—but completely reimagined. A way back to joy. A holy hush that says, you’re still allowed to dance, even here. So go ahead. Listen again. Maybe even waltz a little outside with your toes in the dirt. Let the desert wind and these beautiful strings remind you that wonder isn’t lost. It’s just been waiting—right here, in the music.

“The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy.” Isaiah 35:1-2
