The cops went all Danny and Sandy, reminiscing about their “Summer Nights” by lip-syncing the iconic song from “Grease.” When asked about the viral video, Jonathan Amburgey said, “The State Fair is a time that we have the opportunity to interact with the public in a way that we normally don’t get to. We wanted to show people that we aren’t robots. We have a personality, we like to laugh, and most of all, we like to make other people laugh.” Well done guys. As far as laughter goes, you hit the nail on the head! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/troopers-grease/
When it comes to street performers taking on classical songs, it can be a huge hit or a monumental miss. This lady was filmed singing “Ave Maria” on the street in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, and her performance was definitely in the former category. It’s by no means an easy song to sing, but her soothing voice does Franz Schubert’s famous piece stunning justice. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); }); Not only does she have an angelic singing voice, but her mandolin accompaniment puts the performance on an entirely new level. What a beautiful rendition of an already beautiful song. This certainly isn’t what you’d expect to hear from a street performer, and that just makes it so much better.

For one group of mourners gathered at an Irish pub for a wake, the passing of a dear friend wasn’t about shedding tears. Instead, it was all about honoring his memory by rocking out in style! To mark the passing of Ger ‘Farmer’ Foley, the customers and staff of Falvey’s Bar in Killorglin, Ireland, decided to send off their friend in joyous fashion by singing his favorite song, “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers. What started innocently enough with one man, Brian O’Sullivan, climbing onto the bar counter to get the sing-along going, quickly became an all-out party. I might not have known Farmer Foley, but judging by the people he left behind, he clearly was a joy to be around. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/mr-brightside-pub/
It turns out that you and I aren’t the only ones who love belting out our favorite tunes as we drive down the highway. Whenever this adorable bulldog hears “You Raise Me Up” playing in the car, he just can’t help but sing right alongside Josh Groban. His human friends do a good job…but this pup has the performance down pat! That bulldog is going to be a star. He’s adorable, has a great howl, and is great with fans — the perfect combo to become a star! Now, to just get Josh Groban on board with his new backup singer… Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/bulldog-singing/
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTAT_ATF’); }); If you’re a Star Wars fan, you have to see what these two musicians just did. Earlier this month, 13-year-old Bryce Hayashi grabbed his trumpet and a fellow musician and headed down the street. Their goal was to set up shop outside someone’s home, but that house didn’t belong to just anyone. The pair put a stand on the sidewalk near composer John Williams’ property and started playing one of his most famous pieces. You may have heard of it. Williams has had an illustrious career, but this song — which was composed back in 1977 — is probably his most iconic. What a way to honor a music legend!
