OK, I know that most people here aren't interested in videos of talented kids but, for the few who are, I offer you Interval 941.

10-year-old Miciel, 8-year-old Kian and 6-year-old Luca are the children of Daniel Manzano who, with his two brothers, make up the excellent Boyce Avenue (who've got well over four billion views on Youtube and who've toured in over 30 countries). They certainly seem talented to me and I actually prefer their cover version of 'Wolves' to the original:

aaawww ... That's lovely.

Thanks, MrsLB.

I like the way that they hold their voices back and sing the song really gently (rather than trying to belt it out, as many young singers try to do). They've obviously learned a lot from their dad ;-)
Talent runs in the family then , Ta Buen.x

Thanks, Mamya.
I like it, very talented young boy's.
Question Author
Thanks, Tony. I think that the world might be seeing more of them in years to come.
So do I, Chris.
Sorry, not for me. And i didn't just judge them on the one video, i watched all 3.
Question Author
Oh well, thanks for trying anyway, Ken.
Don't have a problem with talented kids, but i do have one with cover versions. Never heard of Boyce Avenue, Chris, so i googled them and played a few minutes of some of their songs, which were also cover versions. Not too keen on them, either, though i don't suppose they'll lose any sleep over that :-)
Question Author
Boyce Avenue have produced several albums of their own work, Ken.

Here's the most recent:

Ken, I usually agree about cover versions not being as good, but here's an exception that proves the rule. It's new to me, and was posted last night by kvalidir on Mamya's Night Night Song post. Pretty darn good:
Yes, Goodgoalie, yes! :) x
Ha yes k, and all those JW covers of LC are great, too!
Question Author
I might not agree with every one of the 'better-than-the-original' versions listed here but much of the content makes sense to me:

I agree with many on that list, Chris, especially the Bonnie Raitt one - she's recorded one of my songs :)

So now we have it. GG is really a famous songwriter. Perhaps we should replace the initials 'GG' with 'EJ' or 'ALW'?
;-)
Nah, not famous, alas....
Oooh, curiouser and curiouser GG :) x

I love me a good cover, nothing pleases me more than ferreting out something which has touched someone so much when they heard it they make it better when they sing it :)
I'd better not say any more, kval, lest ABers become able to 'cross-reference me' (as, er, someone recently posted) :)
