When you think back to the time when you were in grade school, or perhaps middle school, can you remember how difficult it was to get up in front of a crowd and perform? I’m sure that even the thought of it still gives many of us chills, and for good reason. Even if we had a talent back then, it wasn’t necessarily something that we would be able to share with others. There was always a possibility of embarrassment and sometimes, it was just too much for us to process. We all wanted to be well known for the things that we did but taking the time to actually do it and putting forth the effort was another story.
Every once in a while, we would have a friend in school that would take things to the next level and perform in front of a group. Some kids would even get up in front of the entire school to display their talent and if we really stop to think about it, it worked out well for them. That is obviously the experience of this young boy, who put aside his middle school fears to get up in front of a large audience and play the piano. Not only did he play the piano, which probably would have been difficult enough due to peer pressure, he also decided to sing. Fortunately, he had the talent and the backing of everyone in the school that day and by the end of his performance, he had the audience eating out of his hands.
Most children would probably pick something that was popular among their peers if they were going to put on a performance like this. For the young boy in this video, however, it wasn’t a pop song that made it to the list, it was an old song by Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody.
Although this song was probably popular when his grandparents were listening to rock music, he put on a performance that everybody absolutely loved. After all, I think that all people, young and old are familiar with Freddie Mercury and he did his song justice. Watch it for yourself in the following video:
