YouTube Singers Perform Stunning Whistling and Singing Duet to Patsy Cline’s “Crazy”

Remember the times when music only consisted of instruments and the performers’ vocals? No audio enhancers and no auto-tune. I don’t say today’s music is less better than that back in the time, but sometimes, listening to the artist’s raw voice triggers so many emotions and nostalgia that we get chills.

We are glad the “old” music still serves as an inspiration for young and talented musicians who do incredible covers, just like Allison Young and Josh Turner. Their video captured many hearts and people love it so much that they believe these two should do an album together, and we can’t agree more. Listening to her mesmerizing vocal and his remarkable guitar skills make this performance one of my favorites. It touches heartstrings.

Not only they gave us a performance to remember, but they did it in the most heartwarming manner possible. Sitting on a sofa, with just their talent, a microphone, and a guitar, they made us feel cozy and warmed our souls. It’s true when they say that real beauty lies in simplicity.

The song they opted for this time, “Crazy,” was originally written by Willie Nelson, but Allison and Josh went for Pasty Cline’s style. Their talents blended in a perfect harmony as Josh accompanied her out-of-this-world voice with his guitar.

People went crazy and couldn’t help but share what feelings this cover triggered at them. “Most impressed that they can whistle in tune — that’s quite hard,” one person wrote. “I am going crazy waiting for more duets with Allison and Josh. Their voices compliment each other so well,” another added.

As he wrote in the description of the video, Josh has admired Allison’s voice so he asked her whether she was willing to make a video together. She was thrilled to do it, probably not aware that it will result with a masterpiece seen by more than 1.8 million people. The sound Josh produces is gentle, yet more and more intricate with each tone.

The best part comes after Josh joins in by singing the melody together with Allison till the end of this everlasting piece of music. The perfect mixture of everything what these musicians have to offer turned into a serenade with a touch of a lullaby.

Very often, when we are stunned by what someone is doing, we tend to say how those people are simply talented, by somehow, we forget of all the dedication, practice, and hard work they put in being the best.

Hillary Klug is one of those people whose performances take our breath away. This young lady achieved great things so far, all thanks to her love and devotion for what she does, and that’s entertaining the crowds from every corner of America, as well as other countries. She perfectly combines tap dancing with playing the fiddle. The harmony and the balance she achieves is pure magic, and maybe the most mesmerizing tap dancing we’ve ever seen. Along with two of her friends, they create choreography and produce pleasant sounds.

Hillary was only eight years old when she knew tap dancing was going to be her thing. She loved it and mastered it even when she was just a young lady, but it wasn’t until she turned thirteen that she fell in love with playing the fiddle two. She is an incredible artist who not only performs other people’s songs and music, but creates her own. Her hard work really paid off as she’s now a real internet sensation. The videos of her dancing and playing are seen by millions of people. But this is not what her talent is limited to. She appears in independent films, teaches workshops, and performs at festivals and concerts, too.

This time, the trio chose the popular folk song “Cotton-Eyed Joe.” This piece of music is really something, as its vibrant and energetic melody allows all types of creative dancing. Its popularity is pretty huge as it has been performed multiple times by many different artists. But let’s get honest, nothing really beats this group’s performance of the song. It’s amazing how they play the instrument and tap dance without missing a single beat.

Hillary has already performed internationally, and has two music books and a record in the making under her belt. Her hard work is just a proof that if you nurture your passion, it can lead you anywhere.

Take a look at the dazzling performance this trio delivers and enjoy.

Some songs are simply timeless. No matter how much time has passed, they still remain huge hits sang by many even nowadays. I know you can think of many such masterpieces, and I’m pretty sure “What Kind of Fool” comes to your mind as well. Initially performed back in 1981 by “Barbs and Barry,” or if you prefer Barbara Streisand and Barry Gibb of the Beegees, this song is everlasting.

This time, it comes from Tim McGraw’s eldest daughter, Gracie. Now if you are a fan of country music you know all too well who we are talking about.

Father-daughter goals😍❤️ Hope Gracie is having a great time in NYC!😊 #TimMcGraw#GracieMcGraw#NYC#Goals#Tbt

A post shared by Tim And Faith💋 (@mcgrawhearts96) on

What’s best, this girl and her dad’s edition of the Beegees’ song comes right from their car. They are not recording at the studio, but having fun driving around and singing casually, which makes the whole performances beyond sweet. Bonding together and making people’s days, so what’s not to love about this video?

These two sang together before, even on stage, but this rather “informal” performance is what captured our hearts. Father-daughter time has never looked any better than this.

As a country music singer, Tim always sings from the soul, and it’s undeniable that Gracie got her talent from him. Listening to her singing makes her dad very proud. He can’t take the smile off his face and that speaks a lot about how happy he is she’s following into his footsteps.

Gracie is a serious singer with an angelic voice that stole the hearts of many. She’s still very young, so we hope we’ll hear more of her in the future.

People and other celebrities couldn’t help but notice how special the relationship between these two is.

“Aw Daddy’s getting emotional so proud of his little girls gift. It was so cute and sweet watching him listen to his baby girl. She should go into music but she’s her own person she can sing what ever type of music she wants to it doesn’t have to be country. Her parents will be proud of her ether way as we fans are proud of her.”- Allison Burke

Tim has the time of his life as he joins Gracie trying to imitate Gibb’s high pitch so we see him in a different light than what we are used to.

This father-daughter duet is a must see. Check it out in the video below.

Josh Groban Sings “Hallelujah” in the Shower and We Are in Chills

Some people are born to be stars. His undeniable talent for singing and acting, along with his humble personality makes Josh Groban one of our favorite musicians and entertainers. His powerful vocal gives us chills whenever we listen to him perform.

Now, during the coronavirus pandemic when most of us are spending the days in the comfort of our homes, Groban’s music comes as a true delight that cheers us up and somehow reminds us that everything is going to be just fine.

This time, he uploaded a rendition that he sang straight from his shower and we fell in love with him again. This is what the description of the video says:

“… brave frontline workers around the country but especially those in the epicenter at New York Presbyterian Hospital and Columbia University Irving Medical Center and around NYC.”

Healthcare workers deserve all the praise and support. And Groban wanted to make sure they know he’s thankful for everything they do during these hard times for the humanity.

Singing Cohen’s masterpiece “Hallelujah” sounds pretty unique and deeply touching when coming from this incredible performer. The song received little attention when it was first released, but once it was featured in the animated movie “Shrek” it rose to popularity and is now many people’s all time favorite.

This is the third song from the series of performances Groban does from his shower, and we hope there will be more.

This time, however, he performs along with the violin virtuoso Lucia Micarelli. Her talent is mesmerizing and we believe the two make a powerful music duo. This isn’t the first time for these two to join in the music as Micarelli has been featured in two Groban’s world tours.

Groban’s smooth voice and Miracelli’s singing and playing skills blend just perfectly.

“Well I’ve heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this”

Groban wants everyone to know that these rough times aren’t here to stay, we just have to stick to our fate and be there for one another.

“In times like these I’m inspired by everyone doing their part, no matter how seemingly large or small, to make a difference. We can get through this. Let’s not lose our kindness and humanity while we do.”

People love it and can’t help but let their emotions speak for them. One person writes, “Not only does your voice invoke peace but also your wonderful sweet personality! Thank your for sharing yourself with others! Truly a gift from God!” 

This truly is a masterpiece and a much needed refreshment. Make sure you don’t miss the video below.

Many people who are affected by the pandemic in one way or another are in need of solidarity and support during these hard times for the humankind.

The good thing is that we see many ordinary people, as well as celebrities, giving their contribution in the fight against the virus by offering words of hope and helping financially. And that speaks a lot about humanity. No matter who we are and what our background is, we show that we know how to stand together when we need it the most.

Health workers who are at the front line in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic receive enormous amount of gratitude and are praised by many, including One World: Together At Home, a global broadcast and digital special. This movement, under Global Citizen, made it possible for many music super stars to come together and show their support.

This time, people’s hearts were captured by the incredible performance of “The Prayer” by Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli, Lady Gaga, John Legend and pianist Lang Lang. The music and the lyrics seem to perfectly fit the purpose of the song being performed by such powerful vocals amid the pandemic.

Needless to say, all eyes and ears were on these remarkable musicians on April 18th.

Celine and Andrea have performed this masterpiece many time throughout the years, and the vocal of Lady Gaga added to this one-of-a-kind experience.

John’s presence led to a stunning mixture of his cool tone with the high pitch of the rest of the stars.

Of course, this performance wouldn’t be the same without the talent of Chinese pianist Lang Lang.

From the comfort of their homes, these five musicians brought the 1998 hit to a whole new level. It is a perfect harmony between English and Italian lyrics, and a pleasant blending between styles.

“In times when we don’t know
Let this be our prayer
When we lose our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe”

It’s amazing what music can do. It holds the power to not only entertain us, but to provide comfort during our toughest of times. We are glad everyone is feeling they can help humanity overcome the struggles this pandemic has placed upon them and end up winners.

Listen to what is one of the best rendition of “The Prayer” so far in the video below. It’s not a surprise it has been seen by more than 7.5 million people in just a couple of days.

Bus Driver Holds Little Girl Back on Bus After Children Hop Off, Dad Learns It’s for Her Hair

Mothers are those special humans who seem to possess a bunch of super powers. They take care of the house, run errands, and always know where things are. So with our moms by our side, we should never worry that we will ever fail.

Sweet Isabella, a nine-year-old from Utah had a special bond with her mom Patricia Pieri. Every morning, this mom would make sure her daughter’s hair was nicely braided or put in a perfect bun.

Sadly, Patricia was suffering from a rare brain illness ever since Isabella was three, and she fought as much as she could, but lost the fight and left her sweet girl devastated.

Isabella’s dad, Philip, did all he could for the girl to overcome the loss. He even tried doing her hair the way her mom did, by no matter how much effort he put, it never looked the same.

“She’d get mad at me for pulling her hair. I didn’t know how to do it. One day [Isabella] came home and it looked beautiful. I call her my princess and she looks the part, she plays the part and her confidence is way up, which is what I’ve been intending.”

He was left puzzled and wondered who could do his girl’s hair that nicely?

Well, it turned out the person who took time to help Isabella style her hair was the 47-year-old bus driver Tracy Dean. This woman isn’t like any other bus driver out there. She truly is very special as always keeps close eye on everyone on her bus making sure they are safe and sound.

As caring as she is, Tracy noticed Isabella had a hard time putting her hair in a bun, so she decided to step in and lend a helping hand.

Having four children on her own, Tracy is aware that looks matters a lot to kids Isabella’s age so she makes sure she holds her back while the rest of the students are off the bus to help her do her hair.

“I could tell she was struggling with her hair. We usually do two French braids first and once in a while she just wants one braid. I also taught her how to brush her hair. She’d get on the bus and she’d say, ‘I brushed my hair. Does it look good? I’ll say, ‘You did awesome.’”

Needless to say, Philip is very thankful for everything this caring woman does for Isabella. Maybe it doesn’t seem like much to others, but it means the world to this girl who lost her mother at such young age.

“She’s such a nice woman.”

Tracy is happy she can help Isabella feel better about herself. She is a cancer survivor and always asks herself what if it were her children in Isabella’s place.

“It’s just the way my mom raised me, to be nice to everyone—people who need a little love in their life. I like to give all of the kids a chance—even the naughty kids.”

Take a look at the video below for the whole story. Isabella is very grateful for everything Tracy is doing for her. Please share this story with your family and friends, maybe it will inspire someone to do an act of kindness.

Little Boy Battling COVID-19 Temperature of More than 106 Can’t Shake Off Fever

The coronavirus outbreak is causing widespread fear and concern. People are socially distancing and doing their best to keep themselves safe, but the virus doesn’t seem to spare anyone, including children as young as a day old.

Initially, researchers and epidemiologists believed children were at lower risk of contracting the virus, but the number of cases of youngsters affected proves that not to be completely relevant information.

One family is sharing how their one-year-old son was diagnosed with COVID-19 and are urging other parents of young children to be extra cautious.

Speaking of the symptoms the toddler from Farmington, Michigan, experienced, his mom Amanda May Schreiber told Detroit News, “He looked like he was passing out, I’m doing songs and acting crazy in the car and he just wasn’t responsive. It was one of the scariest moments of my life.”

The family self-isolated themselves and stayed home making sure they were regularly checking on their kids’ temperature. That morning of March 31, both Luke’s and his 4-month-old sibling Alistair’s temperature indicated they had fever.

“Luke woke up crying, which he never usually does, and he had a fever close to 103, a little more than Alistair’s,” Amanda said.

“I immediately thought ‘oh no,’ but we didn’t panic. We got them up, gave them Motrin and the fevers reduced quickly, so we hoped it was nothing to worry about.”

Luke’s condition didn’t get any better and his temperature rose to 106.5.

“I promise you we checked it 10 times using two different thermometers and checking it on ourselves, too.”

Amanda and Ryan tried many things i order to lower Luke’s temperature down, such as giving him a bath, but nothing seemed to help.

“Luke started screaming because it was cold, and we were obviously really scared because it all happened really quickly,” Ryan added. “In that quick moment of panic, you know you have to jump in action.”

The worried parents rushed their little boy to the hospital.

“Six hours after we got to the hospital, his fever was still at 104.5. He stayed the night. It took just 12 hours to get the results back that he was positive for COVID-19 because they do in-house testing,” Amanda told the Detroit News.

“Doctors told us that with that temperature, any longer before bringing him into the hospital he’s at a much higher risk for seizure and brain damage,” Ryan said. “There’s a lot of people who are, unfortunately, losing loved ones, and as long as we can keep Luke healthy, we’re lucky.”

It’s bee a while since Luke was diagnosed with COVID-19 and doctors are still struggling to get his temperature down.

“It goes away and comes right back. We have yet to see a day without a fever at some point. He gets exhausted way faster and just needs to sleep more.”

“It’s important to stay vigilant,” Ryan said. “We thought we were doing everything that we could to prevent it. We were washing surfaces, we were cleaning hands, leaving mail and packages in the garage, and Luke still got it.”

We pray for sweet Luke to overcome the condition as soon as possible. And for the rest of the parents, make sure you keep your little ones as protected as possible.

Grandma Changes Grandson’s Name while Mother Recovers from a C-section

Some in-laws know how to keep distance and never interfere between their child and their spouse, but there are also those who want to have a say in each decision the couple makes. Sadly, it can negatively affect the emotional connections the partners share. Just like that of the husband and the wife from this story.

One mother wrote a letter to Slate describing what her mother-in-law did while she was recovering from giving birth to her son via c-section.

She started her letter by explaining how her husband’s mother has never been fond of her and has always been a manipulator. One good thing was that she and her husband lived states away from her husband’s family, but that didn’t prevent her mother-in-law to find a way to interfere whenever possible.

When she heard the news that her son and her daughter-in-law were expecting a baby, the mother-in-law was over the moon. But soon after, she started asking questions about the baby’s name. The couple told her how they have already decided on the name, but she insisted she didn’t like what they had in mind naming their bundle of joy and said how she had a better name.

As the woman sharing this story put her mother-in-law in her place and told her how the conversation about the baby’s name was a done deal, the mother-in-law though she could persuade her son to listen to her, but once he turned her name offers down himself, she stopped arguing.

When the day they were all eagerly waiting for finally came, the mom gave birth via c-section and was way too tired to deal with paper work so she let her husband deal with it. The mother-in-law, however, saw it as a chance to make her son change the baby’s name.

He didn’t want to listen to his mom at first, but she was persistent, so the new father agreed on a compromise.

He kept the first name of the baby to what his wife wanted, but changed the middle name from “Finley” to “Finlay.”

Once the “damage was done,” the husband realized his wife would be mad at him for listening to his mother, so he decided not to tell her anything about what happened.

A couple of months later, the mother-in-law sent the baby a gift which was addressed to Finlay. The mother knew something was wrong so she went on and checked the baby’s Social Security Number. To her surprise (or not) her son’s middle name was in fact Finlay.

After she confronted her husband, he said how his mother managed to guilt-trip him.

At the end, this woman forgave her husband, but she couldn’t forgive her mother-in-law.

The advice she got after sending the letter? That she’s too kind for her husband and his family and that she should have asked for a divorce.

Well, despite what the husband and his mother did, we believe divorce shouldn’t be an option.

What about you? How would you react if you were in this woman’s place?
