We have all seen the talent portrayed by youth in their schools. These kids are amazingly talented. I have recently watched one that has caused massive talk all over the internet.

It is not often you think of an artist making such an impact that his legacy will never stop. Granted many artists have their music become hits after they have passed on.

Freddie Mercury is one of those artists whose tunes will live on in generation after generation. Queen has been making a comeback off and on for a few years now.

This boy, Alexander Penkov, walks onto the stage and heads for the piano. As you see him, you smile thinking it is sweet how he dressed like the icon. His hair is slicked back, and he wears the white Tshirt and blue jeans; just as Freddie appeared before he passed away. Tentatively the music begins. Truly a difficult song for an adult to master, but Alexander gives it his all. It is almost as if he is channeling Freddie Mercury.

His voice has a slight warbling to it, he blows a kiss to the crowd, just as Freddie liked to do. No lie here, my eyes welled up. This kid has a gift! The crowd is with him now as the most powerful portion of the song begins. Alexander throws his fist in the air, the audience goes wild! The guitar solo portion arrives, Alexander continues on the piano and takes the challenge and gives it his own twist.

Simply put, this is Freddie, this is what he would have done! As he finished the song, the crowd is cheering and applauding. Alexander Penkov may not have hit every note perfectly, he did, however, just like Freddie Mercury and Queen, win over tons of fans.

With just one song, this young middle schooler has brought classic artists into the future. Now, grab the tissue and give the video a view!
