Two talented sisters put their own spin on The Beatles classic, ‘Here Comes The Sun.’
This iconic tune was penned in 1969 by band member George Harrison. George was grappling with personal issues, including taking a temporary break from The Beatles.
‘Here Comes The Sun’ was an optimist look at the future and brighter days ahead. After re-joining the group, the song was featured on the world-renowned ‘Abbey Road’ album and quickly became a fan-favorite.
“Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, doo-dun-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right”
Today, 12-year-old Abby and her sister, Annalie, are performing a duet of this beloved tune and they hope it helps bring light to so many during these dark times.
On YouTube, they wrote an uplifting message. “This song makes us happy, summer makes us happy, and life makes us happy! We have tried to share our joy through this video. We hope it brightens your day!”
“Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, doo-dun-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right”
As you listen to the words of ‘Here Comes The Sun,’ we are all reminded that there is always sunshine after the rain. Even during troubling moments, we can still come together and look forward to the bright days to come.
Two siblings with opposite styles of singing come together for a beautiful duet of ‘The Prayer.’
This powerful song was originally written by David Foster, Carole Bayer Sager, Alberto Testa and Tony Renis in 1999. It was written in both English and Italian for artists Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli to sing solo. But it was their incredible duet performance that truly propelled the song into the classic that it is today.
“So let the children remember the sun
Let them dance, let them soar
For their lives have begun
Let the children engender the rain
As the river runs through fields
Forever subsiding their pain
Prayer”
Today, this brother-sister duo is putting their own spin on ‘The Prayer’ and it’s a performance that you don’t want to miss. Growing up, Anna Richey and her brother, Joseph, both had a love for music. But their musical taste couldn’t have been more different.
Anna was drawn to a pop-sound, while Joseph preferred traditional opera. But when she heard ‘The Prayer, ‘ she knew that there was finally a song they could sing together.
On YouTube, Anna wrote about the story behind this special performance. “The first time I heard this song, I knew that my brother and I would sing it at my wedding. We had finally found a song that catered to both of our musical languages and I truly felt that this song was written specifically for us.”
And when it came time for Anna’s wedding, they belted out these iconic words for all of the family and friends in attendance. It was truly an unforgettable moment during Anna’s reception and the video has touched hearts all around the world with over 2 million views.
Music has a way of connecting people and this performance is the perfect example.
The Prague Cello Quartet make waves across the Internet with their rendition of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.’
This iconic song was written by Freddie Mercury for Queen’s 1975 album, ‘A Night At The Opera.’ Since that time, many famous artists have lent their vocals to the tune. Decades later, it is still a popular song for covers and auditions.
“Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
A little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me”
The Prague Cello Quartet is comprised of members Jan Zvěřina, Petr Špaček, Ivan Vokáč and Jan Zemen. This incredible ensemble was originally formed in 2006.
On their website, it says, “Their goal is to entertain the audience with their adaptations of well-known compositions and intelligent sense of humour, breaking the boundaries between fun and classical music.” And there’s no doubt that this quartet truly has a talent for unique arrangements and entertaining productions.
Over the years, they’ve produced multiple viral videos including their covers of ‘Phantom Of The Opera’ and ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean.’ Now, they’re making headlines again with their incredible rendition of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.’
This timeless song gets a whole new feel with this cello performance and it’s one you definitely don’t want to miss.
