‘Come stop your cryin', it will be alright
Just take my hand, hold it tight
I will protect you from all around you
I will be here, don't you cry’

These singers from the U.S. Army Chorus are all fathers, and the lyrics of this song hold the perfect message for the kids of these military service members.

“Originally written as a lullaby for Collins’s young daughter and featured in Disney’s animated film Tarzan, the song expresses a promise of love, protection, and comfort. It is a message that speaks to the bond between parent and child, one that remains resilient across any distance and through every season of life,” reads the caption of this YouTube video. “This performance is dedicated to all fathers, but especially those who serve. You know what it means to love across distance and time. Whether at home or deployed, your devotion lives on in the hearts of those you cherish.”

Not only did the U.S. Army chorus members impress us with their vocals, but many people online were touched by the song’s message that the servicemen were singing to their families.

“From one Navy veteran to you fellas…may God continue to bless you and your families in all you do,” comments one person online after watching the video.

“Awesome! Thank all of you for your service and starting my day off with a song. Stay safe!” writes another person on YouTube.

We hope that you enjoyed this sweet performance of ‘You’ll Be in My Heart’ today!

Check out this heartwarming rendition of the Phil Collins classic ‘You’ll Be in My Heart’ by Mat and Savanna Shaw. They even had a surprise guest, Savanna’s little sister, Pennie Jean, join them for this song. The trio sounded absolutely heavenly together, and their music will warm your heart and bring a smile to your face!

‘Come stop your cryin', it will be alright
Just take my hand, hold it tight
I will protect you from all around you
I will be here, don't you cry’

What an incredible cover of this touching song! Their harmonies were absolutely wonderful, and watching them sing together with such joy was a beautiful sight to behold.

“We were running through songs for our June 14th show in Utah, when this moment with Pennie Jean melted us,” writes Mat and Savanna Shaw in the caption of their YouTube video. “It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do.”

This video of Mat and his daughters singing together touched many people online, and they shared their thoughts on the sweet video.

“Fantastic! When the three of you sing together the blending of the harmonies is amazing! I am so impressed with Pennie Jean - what a lovely voice. And Savanna's voice is growing stronger and purer with every song,” comments one person on YouTube after watching the video.

“They’re all three so talented. From their start, I loved the father daughter connection through the joy of music,” writes another person online.

Mat and Savanna Shaw started to become popular with their singing videos during the COVID-19 quarantine. Savanna, eager to keep in touch with her music friends, started a music social media account. She was nervous to sing her first song by herself, so she asked her dad to join her in singing ‘The Prayer.’ After that video went viral, Mat and Savanna continued releasing duets on social media and streaming platforms, quickly garnering a worldwide following.

We hope that you enjoyed this amazing rendition of ‘You’ll Be in My Heart’ from the Shaws today!

You’ll be blown away by Mickey Gilley's mesmerizing ‘Stand By Me’ cover. The country legend sang the song in a casual episode of Larry’s Country Diner, but it sounds good enough to put on a record. Play the clip to hear the wonderful cover song. 

At 82, country singer Mickey Gilley proved he could still sing as good—or better—than the rest of them. His acoustic cover of ‘Stand By Me’ is astonishing. His voice sounds youthful and beautiful. Anyone listening to the song without seeing the video would never guess that the singer was as old as Gilley was. As soon as he finishes his spirit-filled song, the room erupts in claps, hoots, and hollers.

Gilley started his music career young and played the piano as a child. In the 1950s, his first single was ‘Ooh Wee Baby.’ The song ‘Stand By Me’ may be a little symbolic, as he sings to fans, asking them, in a way, to remember him in his last years. The song also talks about not being afraid of what’s to come when you have someone to lean on. Some of the song’s lyrics are:

And if the sky we look upon should tumble and fall
And the mountains should fall to the sea
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long, just as long as you stand by me

Gilley has had many hits, like ‘She’s Pulling Me Back Again,’ ‘I Overlooked an Orchid,’ and ‘True Love Ways.’ He’s an entertainer through and through and always engages with his audience as he sings, like he does in this video. The artist passed away on May 7, 2022, at the age of 86, but his legend lives on through his great music. 

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10

The Beatles' classic ‘Here Comes the Sun’ gets a unique cover in harpist Kami Maltz’s latest cover video. With an upbeat strumming, a gentle voice, and a happy glow, you’re bound to fall in love with the song. Watch the clip to hear the happy performance.

In the video posted on YouTube, musician Kami Maltz launches into a cover of ‘Here Comes The Sun’ on her autoharp. 

“The world feels like it's in one of those low swings of the pendulum right now, even with the sun out… Still, I’m lucky to have music,” she said. “When it feels like my hands are tied and there’s not much I can do to change the world or help the people suffering in it, at least I can keep sharing something that feels like hope. So until the pendulum swings back - whenever that may be - here’s a little bit of sunshine in the form of a song.” 

And she certainly delivered some sunshine in her cover. The autoharp isn’t easy to master, but Kami proves she certainly has, as her fingers move across the strings as she sings. The video flits between Kami playing and clips of her walking and thinking in a peaceful atmosphere outside. Her cover is simply happiness and sunshine. She honors the Beatles’ version well, keeping many of the elements that make it a classic and much-loved song, while adding a unique touch with her choice of instrument. 

Some of the lyrics of the positive song are: 

Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun (Doo-d-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun

“Why are you cast down, O my soul? and why are you disquieted in me? hope you in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.” Psalms 42:5

Thousands came together and belted out “Hey Jude” in an electrifying, mesmerizing musical performance. The musicians playing and singing The Beatles’ classic is a sight to behold. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip of thousands joining in to sing a beloved tune from The Beatles, “Hey Jude.”

The Beatles are, without a doubt, the most influential, well-known and beloved band in the history of music. While some bands and artists like The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Led Zeppelin and others may come close, The Beatles are in a league of their own. Their songs continue to be widely played and performed throughout the world. Everyone instantly recognizes a Beatles song, including those who aren’t the biggest fans.

While they broke up decades ago, the four lads from Liverpool continue to have rabid, dedicated fans, and their music still brings thousands of people together. In a clip posted on YouTube, thousands packed a stadium in Leiria, Portugal, and performed “Hey Jude.” The clip states that 1,000 musicians played the tune, while the video’s description points out that another 20,000 people provided the vocals.

“Hey Jude, don’t be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better”

This video captures a stunning visual display! The camera swings around and captures everyone on the field and the thousands of people sitting in the stands.

But this performance quickly becomes even more impressive when considering the massive number of people playing and singing together, because they sound terrific. There isn’t a missed note or anything else to indicate a false move of any kind. Even those of us who aren’t the biggest Beatles fans must admit that this is a jaw-dropping musical and visual display.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;”

Two women dazzled Britain’s Got Talent studio audience with a stunning medley of ABBA hits. The friends and office workers showed their surprising musical talent with an impressive performance of some beloved, recognizable songs. Watch the short but toe-tapping clip to see and hear the two women belt some of ABBA’s biggest hits.

No two people will have the same musical tastes and preferences. We’re all individuals, complete with different likes and dislikes. Seriously, how boring would life be if we were all alike and agreed on every single topic and subject? There’d be no fun in that at all!

Because no person is exactly 100 percent like the next, especially when it comes to music, some people will naturally love Disco while others will hope it stays dead forever. Regardless of your feelings about that specific musical genre, some Disco songs are beloved by all, including those by the popular Swedish group ABBA.

In a clip posted on YouTube, two women, Han and Fran, take Britain’s Got Talent stage and wow the studio audience with their ABBA medley. The two women, who work in a “very boring” office, perform a mashup of “Take a Chance on Me” and “Dancing Queen.”

From the moment the music started, and they began singing, Han and Fran had the entire studio audience on their feet, singing and dancing right along with them. It was such a fun and enjoyable performance. How could you not have enjoyed that?

When it came time for the judges to give their comments and render their verdicts, Han and Fran got two quick yes votes, with Bruno and Alesha saying how much they enjoyed their performance. Amanda and Simon were admittedly on the fence, unsure how to vote. That’s when the studio audience stepped up and made their feelings known, helping to send the two women into the next round of the competition.

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.”

Check out this beautiful cover of the Loretta Lynn classic, ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter.’ The singer in the video is Rebecca Lynn Howard, and she is singing her rendition of this song live on Larry's Country Diner Season 9. What an impressive cover this is!

‘Well, I was borned a coal miner's daughter
In a cabin, on a hill in Butcher Holler
We were poor but we had love, that's the one thing that daddy made sure of
He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar’

Rebecca Lynn Howard is an American country music artist who sounds fantastic singing and playing along with the band to ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter.’ This classic song was written and recorded by singer-songwriter Loretta Lynn and released as a single in 1970. The song tells the story of Loretta Lynn’s coal-mining father in rural Kentucky during the Great Depression and describes her childhood and the circumstances in which she was raised during those years. 

‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ became Loretta Lynn’s signature song and hit the number one spot on the Billboard country chart. It was also released later on an album of the same name.

After listening to Rebecca Lynn Howard’s cover of ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter,’ many people online only had positive things to say about her performance.

“Amazing cover all the way around! Have always loved Loretta and this song. You all nailed it!” comments one person on YouTube after watching the music video.

As for Rebecca Lynn Howard’s music history, she has charted seven singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts and released three studio albums. Her highest-charting single is ‘Forgive’, which peaked at No. 12 on the country music charts in 2002. Rebecca Lynn Howard is also a founding member of the country-rock group Loving Mary.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to Rebecca Lynn Howard’s rendition of ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ today!

Life in 3D wows with a stirring cover of “My Way.” This is an incredible, stunning performance of the song made famous by the legendary actor and singer Frank Sinatra. Watch the short but jaw-dropping video to see and hear Life in 3D, which gives an absolutely magnificent cover of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way.”

There are not many entertainers who have had the impact of Frank Sinatra. He was an award-winning actor who could also sing a little bit. With his unmistakable, iconic voice, he is responsible for several truly classic songs. He was a one-of-a-kind entertainer with unmatchable talent and tons of charisma.

Even decades after he died in the late 1990s, his influence still looms large over the entertainment industry. His songs are routinely covered and performed by musicians everywhere. Also, whenever someone mentions “Old Blue Eyes” or simply says “Frank,” they are more than likely referencing Frank Sinatra.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Life in 3D performs Frank’s most memorable and iconic tune, “My Way.” Life in 3D is comprised of three siblings—two brothers and a sister—who typically perform together. However, this time, it’s a solo effort, with one of the young men singing alone.

“I’ve lived a life that’s full
I traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way”

To say he does the song justice would be to put it lightly, but that is to be expected. Everything the incredibly talented sibling trio, Life in 3D, does is usually fantastic, as is the case here. The young man shines as he beautifully sings the song made famous by Frank Sinatra. It’s an excellent vocal performance.

The video’s description mentions that the young man in the clip had always wanted to “give it my own try ever since I heard it growing up.” I’d say he more than succeeded, and I’m sure everyone else who hears this clip would agree.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.”

A classic from the Goo Goo Dolls received a stunning acoustic cover on America’s Got Talent. The contestant nailed the tune, beautifully performing the beloved song while also putting his own spin on it. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to hear and see him perform “Iris” by the Goo Goo Dolls.

Life is not always fun and easy. There will be instances along the road that are unpleasant and downright painful. Unfortunately, life will knock you down and leave you battered and bruised, with the scars to prove it.

However, as much as those situations may hurt and leave you second-guessing yourself and your ability to continue, giving up is never an option. That is always easier said than done, especially in the moment, amid the trial and hardship.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one young man, Chuck Adams, mentions how he’s had a rough go of it during his back-and-forth with the judges. The music business has not always been kind to him, but that has not deterred him from doing what he loves and pursuing his goals.

After talking with the four judges, Chuck gets right into his performance. From the opening moments, soon after he starts strumming on his guitar, it’s clear that this is going to be a special moment, an outstanding performance. 

Seconds into his performance of “Iris,” the studio audience is already massively impressed, with several hooting and hollering as they listen to Chuck’s dazzling rendition of the Goo Goo Dolls tune. And who could blame them? It is fantastic!

The judges, like the studio audience, also loved what they heard. Given their comments on his performance, it was no surprise that Chuck received four yes votes, sending him into the next round of the competition.

James 1:12 “There is a blessing on the man who undergoes testing; because, if he has God’s approval, he will be given the crown of life, which the Lord has said he will give to those who have love for him.”

You’ve probably never seen anyone Irish dance to one of Dolly Parton’s biggest hits, but it’s not something to miss. Tap-dancing duo The Gardiner Brothers turn up the fun with their new ‘9 to 5’ routine.

The world-class Irish dancers Matthew and Michael are certainly impressive in their latest Irish dancing video. The brothers start the dance video sitting in chairs. One brother yawns while the other pours a cup of coffee to the lyrics: 

‘Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'’

They soon start tapping their feet to the quick beat. Their movements are rhythmic and mirror one another. They tap their feet on hardwood floors, throwing in some jumps and side-to-side movements. Their performance clearly took a lot of dedication, and it matches the song well, as the lyrics partially speak about work ethic. 

Dolly Parton is an extremely popular American artist. The brothers’ incorporation of her music into their dance is a mix of cultures. It might be Irish dancing, but their video is certain to catch on with Americans now. 

The brothers have 5 world titles and nearly 2 million Instagram followers. They live in Nashville, TN, but previously moved from Galway, Ireland. They travel around the world, proving that Irish dancing is versatile. They were also cast members of Riverdance, the renowned musical production. 

They perform their dances to lots of unexpected songs besides ‘9 to 5,’ like Queen’s  ‘Another One Bites the Dust,’ Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Peekaboo,’ and even the ‘Mission: Impossible’ theme song. 

As pop culture often likes to see much of the same, it’s great to see a duo of dancers that is wholesome and original in their work.

The beloved song “I’ll Fly Away” soars in a beautiful, powerful a cappella rendition. The tune has gotten an outstanding cover that deserves to be heard. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to listen to the inspiring and heartwarming cover of “I’ll Fly Away” that will surely move you.

Musicians are a skilled and talented group capable of producing some of the most pleasant and lovely sounds you’ve ever heard. Because of their God-given gifts, we have the privilege of listening to a seemingly endless collection of sounds. Music is so diverse and expansive, coming in thousands of genres, stylings and forms. There is literally something for everyone in terms of music.

However, while many musicians use various instruments to create sounds, one instrument has and will continue to top them all: the human voice. It’s the original instrument, the only one made by God himself. The human voice is likely the only one that can bring an entire audience to tears.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a talented young man performs a classic, a tune near and dear to the hearts of many: “I’ll Fly Away.” And he does so mainly using the power and beauty of his voice, making for a wholly captivating and dazzling rendition of the song about looking forward to that “home on God’s celestial shore.”

“Some bright morning when this life is over
I’ll fly away
To that home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away”

While his rendition is considerably slowed down from most other versions, it is still beautiful. The slower tempo emphasizes and focuses more attention on the vocal performance, which is absolutely outstanding. This young man’s rendition of “I’ll Fly Away” should be listened to multiple times to fully grasp the talent and skill on display in this a cappella cover.

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.”

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.

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.
