One man, one classic song, and one fearless dance move were all it took to turn an ordinary day at the gym into a celebration that had everyone smiling as these athletes, led by Eian Rivera, show off their ‘Stayin’ Alive’ dance moves. 

Music has a way of bringing people together. It crosses generations, breaks down barriers, and reminds us that joy is meant to be shared. Especially if the music is a song we all know and love, like in this video, when Eian cranked up the Bee Gees’ iconic hit ‘Stayin’ Alive’ and decided to show off his dance moves and encourage everyone to join. 

As the familiar beat filled the gym, Eian confidently strutted across the floor, inviting everyone he passed to join him. Before long, volleyball players, athletes, coaches, and spectators couldn't resist the infectious energy. One by one, they started dancing alongside him, turning a normal day into an unforgettable memory.

Eian didn't hold anything back, either. He showed off impressive dance moves, dropped into the splits, and kept the crowd laughing as more people pulled out their phones to capture the spontaneous performance. Smiles spread across every corner of the gym as teammates cheered each other on and strangers joined the fun.

The soundtrack behind the joyful moment couldn't have been more fitting.

Released in 1977 as part of the blockbuster Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, "Stayin' Alive" became one of the Bee Gees' most recognizable songs. Along with "Night Fever" and "How Deep Is Your Love," it helped the soundtrack top the U.S. charts and became forever linked with John Travolta's unforgettable dance scenes.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive

Nearly 50 years later, the song is still doing what great music does best, bringing people together.

Watching Eian transform an ordinary gym into a dance floor is a reminder that joy is wonderfully contagious. It only takes one person willing to laugh, let loose, and invite others in for an entire room to begin to smile. For a few unforgettable minutes, the games paused, the competition faded into the background, and everyone simply enjoyed the moment together.

Sometimes the best memories aren't planned at all. Sometimes they begin with a familiar song, a few bold dance moves, and someone willing to ask, without saying a word, "Want to dance?"

"A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones."  Proverbs 17:22

The CommUNITY ATL Choir's show-stopping “Lovely Day” performance on AGT won the hearts of everyone in the audience—including the judges. They’ve got star talent. Watch the video to be amazed!

The choir’s performance of "Lovely Day" on America's Got Talent is absolutely stunning. When the five lead singers start out on the stage, it's obvious that they already sound incredible. Then more trickle onto the stage, and even more pop out of the audience. 

“I honestly think this is one of the best choirs we’ve had in years,” judge Simon Cowell said when they finished. “You were prepped. The choreography was amazing. The vocal arrangements were amazing. You have sensed the mood and done exactly the right thing, which is give us something that makes us feel great.”

After the performance finished, the choir got four eager yeses from the judges. 

The "Lovely Day" America's Got Talent performance was inspired by Bill Withers’ original 1977 hit. Bill was known for his 18-second vocal stretch towards the end of the song, which is the longest held note on any U.S. singles chart. The choir doesn’t attempt it here, and no one can blame them—it's quite a feat to tackle.  

Some of the lyrics in “Lovely Day” are:

Then I look at you
And the world's all right with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be a lovely day

The song is all about love and the positivity that it can make you feel. Even the most gloomy days can feel bright when you have someone you love by your side. 

This choir group exemplifies unity, community, and teamwork. They are full of energy, joy, and positivity. Bill Withers’ “Lovely Day” was a perfect song choice for them to sing for their America’s Got Talent audition.

This busker's dazzling cover of 'Let It Be' by The Beatles does not fail to surprise and delight. Play the video to listen to the young woman sing. If I were walking by, I would certainly stop and listen to her heartfelt performance. 

When you see the young busker standing there on the streetside, you don’t imagine she’ll have a deep, winding voice as dreamy as she does. She sings "Let It Be" by The Beatles in a way that I’ve never heard before. She lets her voice change instead of bending it to the song. 

As she sings on the sunny English street, passersby stop and listen, transfixed, while others step over to give her a token of appreciation for her performance. 

It’s an interesting song choice for the busker, who goes by Amber. Her voice is so deep and strong; you wouldn’t naturally place it with a song like this. Nonetheless, it sounds marvelous. 

Some of the beginning lyrics to "Let It Be" by The Beatles are: 

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be. 

The song was written by Beatles member Paul McCartney. 

He said, "I had a dream in the Sixties where my mum who died came to me in a dream and was reassuring me, saying: 'It's gonna be OK. Just let it be...'"

His mother’s name was Mary, which is why he wrote the lyrics the way he did. His mother had died during cancer treatment when he was just 14. He had the dream at the age of 26, when he was at a difficult place in his life, and the dream brought comfort to him. 

Amber does a wonderful job in her cover of “Let It Be.” It’s a gift anytime she sings, no matter the song.

The Dwayene Gretzky band's cover of “Always Be My Baby” is fantastic, hands down. It’s one of the best Mariah Carey covers we’ve ever heard. Play the video to sing along.

With about 6 back-up singers all in perfect sync and an amazing lead singer, Chynna Lewis, the "Always Be My Baby" Mariah Carey cover sounds incredible. All of the instruments, from the piano to the guitars, are on point. It couldn’t be more perfect.

"Always Be My Baby" by Mariah Carey was the No. 1 song when it came out in 1996 and was Mariah’s 11th No. 1 hit. Mariah co-wrote the song with Jermaine Dupri. 

Cover of “Always Be My Baby” is a Wonderful Ode to Mariah Carey

Mariah previously said, "The background vocals are an important part of the whole picture for me. That's why I like to do them myself a lot of the time, or at least initially I'll lay down the tracks… It's easy for me to match my voice… To me, on those kinds of records, the hook is really important.”

The song is about a woman’s feelings after a breakup. Some of the lyrics to “Always Be My Baby” are: 

I know that you'll be back, boy
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder, oh
I know that you'll be right back, baby
Oh, baby, believe me, it's only a matter of time, time

The Dwayne Gretzky band’s background harmonies are what make the song special. The group has a clear dedication to creating the kind of sounds that the original song does, and it provides a beautiful variety of voices, making it sound fresh.  

The performance feels so vibrant and warm, you can’t help snapping a finger to it or singing along. Seeing all of the musicians have fun as they perform makes you feel like part of the gang. All in all, it’s a wonderful ode to Mariah Carey.

Released in 1978, it helped cement Kenny's place as one of country music's most beloved entertainers.

You got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run

Blake looked like he was having the time of his life up there, grinning his way through every verse of the song. It felt like friends gathered, singing a song they’ve loved for years. And it wasn’t long before the entire audience was singing right along with him. 

You never count your money
When you're sitting at the table
There'll be time enough for counting
When the dealings done

Part of what makes the song so special is its ability to bring people together. Whether you first heard it on the radio decades ago, around a campfire with friends, or blasting through the speakers on a road trip, the song carries memories with it. Its wisdom, humor, and unforgettable chorus continue to resonate with listeners of all ages.

As Blake paid tribute to Kenny, it was a reminder that some songs are more than hits because they become part of our stories. And judging by the crowd's reaction, ‘The Gambler’ remains one of country music's most treasured classics.

For a few minutes, fans weren't just watching an awards show. They were taking a joyful trip down memory lane, singing every word of a song that still knows exactly how to play its cards right.

In case I need it when I'm older’

“This was just incredible! I am in awe of your talent. Your voice is amazing!” writes another person online.

The Story Behind “I Want to Know What Love Is”

When it comes to the story behind “I Want to Know What Love Is,” Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones shared in an interview that the song started off on more of a personal level. 

“I'd been through a lot of relationships that eventually failed, and still searching for something that could really endure. And that sort of took a life of its own as well. It became more of a universal feeling. I adjusted that during the recording of it, and ended up putting a gospel choir on it. And you know, realized suddenly that I'd written almost a spiritual song, almost a gospel song,” he said. “Sometimes, you feel like you had nothing to do with it, really. You're just putting it down on paper, or coming up with a melody that will bring the meaning of the song out, bring the emotion out in the song."

As for Jared Halley’s background, he began his musical journey at a young age and quickly gained recognition for his exceptional talent. He rose to prominence through his YouTube channel, where he showcased his vocal abilities by performing a wide range of songs, spanning various genres. His music often features intricate vocal harmonies, impressive beatboxing skills, and innovative arrangements.

This cover band’s beautiful cover of “Jolene” captivates and stuns. The lead singer, Chloe Castledine, does a really wonderful job of singing the Dolly Parton classic. Watch the video to sing along.

The "Jolene" Dolly Parton cover is hearty and full of country rhythm. The band plays with plenty of twangy instruments, and an electronic violin is a nice touch. All in all, it’s a wonderful tribute to the queen of country, Dolly Parton. 

Some of the lyrics the Sing it Live band sings in their cover are: 

And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
[Chorus]: Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene

Dolly Parton Wrote “Jolene” After a Bank Teller Flirted With Her Husband 

Dolly was inspired to write the song after a bank teller kept flirting with her obviously married husband. 

"He was a little embarrassed when I wrote the song 'Jolene' because, actually, it wasn't as serious [as it seems]. I was just jealous 'cause she was a beautiful woman and he was just flirting," Dolly said of her husband.

She also said, “Something good can come from anything. Had it not been for that woman, I would never have written 'Jolene' and I wouldn't have made all that money, so thank you, Jolene.”
The woman’s name wasn’t actually Jolene. Dolly had a young fan with that name, and she had told her she would find a way to include her name in one of her songs.

It’s been 53 years since the song came out, and it has been sung in many languages by many well-known singers like Miley Cyrus, Beyoncé, and more. 

It’s a song with a great sound. Once you hear it, you can’t forget it. And Sing it Live truly does a wonderful job in their "Jolene" Dolly Parton cover.

The Brothers In Black trio's cover of ‘I Walk The Line’ is outstanding. Johnny Cash's song became one of the most recognizable songs in country music history. He penned it for his wife as a promise to remain faithful while spending long stretches on the road, and the song captured the heart of a man determined to honor his commitments despite life's temptations. It’s a song that’s been passed down through the generations, that’s become a favorite that we all know the words to. 

The Words to “I Walk the Line”

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line 

Decades later, three teenage brothers are introducing a new generation to that timeless classic. This young tribute band has quietly gathered more than 44,000 followers on Facebook while sharing their love for Johnny Cash's music. Although little is publicly known about the brothers themselves, one thing becomes clear the moment they begin to sing: they genuinely love the music they are performing.

Dressed head-to-toe in black, the trio stands among the trees with a beautiful bluegrass backdrop behind them. Their performance feels simple, authentic, and refreshingly free of flashy distractions. Instead, they let the music do the talking.

What makes the performance especially memorable is the lead singer's voice. The resemblance to Johnny Cash’s voice is uncanny. If you close your eyes for a moment, you may find yourself transported back to another era when Cash's deep baritone voice filled radios across America.

But perhaps the sweetest part of watching these brothers perform is how much they love it; you can tell they are having fun together. In a world where so much entertainment is carefully polished and produced, there is something heartwarming about three siblings sharing their talent and preserving the music of a country legend.

Their rendition of ‘I Walk the Line’ is both a tribute and a reminder that great music continues to connect generations. Whether you're a lifelong Cash fan or simply appreciate talented young musicians, this performance is worth a listen.

Take a moment to watch the video. You just might find yourself smiling before the first verse is finished.

"One generation shall commend Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts." Psalm 145:4

This incredible pitch-perfect Jackson 5 cover will have you hitting replay. The group is so in sync, you can’t take your eyes off them. Watch the video to see the incredible performance. 

The Jackson 5 cover features 5 members, and the youngest is around Michael Jackson’s age (11) when he sang the song. He sounds identical to him, too. As he sings and walks around the stage, the four older members dance in sync in a very 70s style. 

These kinds of performances are so nostalgic and fun to listen to and watch. This group is so full of joy and spunk. It helps that they’re insanely talented, too. Seeing their matching afros and 70s outfits is a fun homage to the original group. 

Some of the lyrics from the Jackson 5 cover of “I Want You Back” are: 

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now, it's much too late for me to take a second look

Their arrangement isn’t perfectly identical to the Jackson 5's, which had more singing involvement from all members. This group prefers to let its youngest member shine. 

This song was the Jackson 5's first single, and it rocketed their career. The song topped the Hot 100 on January 31, 1970, and Michael Jackson became the youngest person ever to reach #1 on the Hot 100. Michael and his four brothers also influenced the introduction of other family artist groups during that time.

It’s so fun to see a talented group get together like this. They have so much skill and are a true joy to watch.

The PS22 Chorus is an Amazing Children’s Choir 

The director’s name is Gregg Breinberg. He has transformed a community by bringing the gift of unity through music and by posting videos to record and evaluate practices, which have led to global recognition. Many artists like Amy have joined this group to sing with this special group of talented kids.

The Chorus says:

How do we get there from here?
How do we take the next step?
How do we get there from hеre
Instead of saying we'rе not ready yet?

During the chorus, you will see Amy stop while the choir carries on the song as she gets incredibly emotional and smiles. She is completely taken aback by their voices, and she turns and looks at the kids. You see lots of children sharing their personalities with us.

This song will encourage you today to not be afraid and to love like Jesus. At the end of Amy Grant PS22 Chorus, Amy says that this moment will be her favorite music experience that she has ever had in her life. The children smile and cheer.

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” John 15:12

“The Brady Bunch” theme song got a rockin’ makeover you must hear. Guaranteed, without a doubt, that you have never heard the tune from the iconic and beloved television program like this before. Watch the short, delightful and thoroughly entertaining clip to hear this modern, updated take on “The Brady Bunch” theme song.

Many things are considered classics – songs, cars, jokes, movies, television shows and books, to name a few. Typically, these items are viewed by the majority of the population as the best offerings in their respective categories. Basically, these particular objects are the gold standard, and everything else that follows is simply, and more than likely failing miserably, trying to hit that mark.

However, many people hold the false belief that simply because something is considered a classic, it’s good, the best and of the highest quality. How do I know this? How can I make such a claim? Well, for instance, “The Brady Bunch” is considered a classic, and it’s, without a doubt, the absolute worst television show of all time, with “Gilligan’s Island” coming in a close second. Everything about “The Brady Bunch” is cringeworthy. The show is so bad that it’s downright unwatchable.

Nevertheless, many people still enjoy that program about a large, mixed family made up of people who cannot act. In a clip posted on YouTube, one man took one of the show’s most iconic, recognizable elements: its theme song, and produced an updated, modern twist.

While many covers are nothing more than carbon copies of the original version. That is not the case at all in this instance. He went in a decidedly different direction, giving “The Brady Bunch” theme song a hard rock version.

Regardless of how you feel about the show itself, this cover is incredibly fun and requires a fair amount of musical talent. How could you not at least appreciate this cover?

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

This young busker’s cover performance gets a twist with a very unique instrument. The 12-year-old boy, Riordon Hopwood, strums and sings on a three-string cigar box guitar his father made. It’s a very special performance that’s fun to watch. Play the video to see young Riordian take it away.

If you don’t already stop in your tracks for talented buskers, you’ve got to at least stop when you see one so young and talented like Riordan. He’s only 12, but he’s got classic taste—he sings “Money (That’s What I Want)" by The Beatles. 

Some of the lyrics from the classic hit are: 

Well, now, give me money (That's what I want)
Whole lot of money (That's what I want)
Woah, yeah, you know I need money (That's what I want)
Oh, now, give me money, yeah (That's what I want)

The lyrics are certainly not deep, and they are quite repetitive, but people like the Beatles’ song because everyone can easily relate to it. Who hasn’t wanted a little cash one time or another? Plus, it is quite catchy. 

This Young Busker is Going Places 

The young boy’s unique instrument performance makes quite the impression on passersby. 
Riordan is well on his way to a bright musical career. The 12-year-old is a hard worker with a dream of performing beyond Dublin’s streets. Riordan is an inspiration to other young kids. If he can do something like this, then they can, too. 

He says, “I practice every day and perform every single week, whether on Grafton street, open mics, or in the school band/choir with my classmates. Like my hero Ed Sheeran, I believe hard work, hustle, and heart are what shape an artist. Every gig, every cover, every crowd teaches me something new.”

Busking can be hard. Some crowds are tough, while others are captivated. Hopefully, Riordan will stick to that determination and keep on busking and offering more unique instrument performances!

This “Come Together” cover will stop you in your tracks. It sounds so good, you won’t be able to press pause. Play the video to hear it. 

Zoe Clarke and her band’s Beatles "Come Together" cover sounds incredible. It’s got amazing guitar riffs, acoustic sweetness, drums, bass, and a rolling energy that you can’t help but tap your foot or sing along to. It is an all-around great cover. 

Zoe’s voice alone is enough to make you stop and listen in wonder, but her instrumental accompaniments help create a lively atmosphere that sucks you in right away. If she doesn’t have a studio cover of this song available for streaming, the talented artist should give it some heavy consideration—because it really does sound that good.

“Come Together” Was One of the Beatles' Last Songs 

Ironically, “Come Together” was one of the last songs The Beatles worked on before their split. John Lennon wrote it for pro-drugs politician Timothy Leary, who stood against Ronald Reagan as governor of California. But then Timothy went to prison for drug possession, which allowed Lennon to record it with The Beatles. 

Some of the lyrics Zoe belts in the Beatles' "Come Together" cover are:

He got joo joo eyeball.
He one holy roller.
He got hair down to his knee.
Got to be a joker he just do what you please. 

Zoe and her band do a beautiful job in their performance, throwing in a few original curves of their own, and their version might even be better than The Beatles'. This cover has a raw magic in its live performance that makes it feel fresh and attractive. Zoe herself is so casual and cool as she sings. She’s an absolute rockstar. 

If you liked this cover, you’re sure to like other music by Zoe Clarke and her busking gang. If you’re not local to Dublin like many of their fans, you can catch them on Zoe’s YouTube channel.

This young street performer wows with his “Layla” cover. As the lively 9-year-old plays on a busy UK street, many people stop to watch him strum his guitar and sing. 

Leonardo Patrick is just 9 years old, but using a guitar, drum machine, and some loop pedals, he’s able to create a really incredible cover. “Layla” is a song that requires a lot of technical guitar skill, but this kid absolutely nails it. It’s marvelous that he can play like this at such a young age. 

This street performer’s "Layla" cover even takes the song to the next level, as Leonardo adds his own interpretive twist to the classic. 

The 1970 ballad was written by Eric Claption and Jim Gordon. It was inspired by Eric’s secret love for his friend’s wife, whom he eventually married. Some of the song’s lyrics are: 

Tried to give you consolation
Your old man had let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down

A Captivating Rendition of “Layla” 

This young street performer’s rendition of "Layla" is so captivating. When you see a bright young person doing something like this, with enthusiasm, it inspires hope. You know that they have a solid start, and you feel good about it for them. Leonardo is definitely on his way to a shiny career in music. 

It’s easy to see why people crowd around him in wonder. His talent is rare, regardless of age. So, for him to be so young and so talented is very rare.

We can’t know everything behind the scenes, but I hope this child is giving street performances because he loves it and not because he’s required to. Anyway, it looks like he's enjoying himself!

You’ve never heard the “Gilligan’s Island” theme song like this, guaranteed. It’s a huge, but welcome stylistic departure, an incredibly unique take on the memorable tune we all know and love. Watch the short but thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable clip to hear this updated, modernized version of the “Gilligan’s Island” theme song.

Covers today are a dime a dozen. They can be found literally everywhere you listen to music – Spotify, Apple Music, America’s Got Talent, American Idol, The Voice and even the radio. But let’s be honest, 99 percent of those covers are essentially carbon copies of the original. Sure, they may sound great, but they are all, for the most part, extremely forgettable.

What is really the point of covering a song if the artist is just going to do it exactly as the original? Wouldn’t we be better off just listening to the first version? Nine times out of 10, it’s going to be better anyway. The point being that if you’re going to cover a song, take a chance, branch out, try something new and take it in a different direction, at least that shows some creativity and skill.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one musician took the “Gilligan’s Island” theme song in a decidedly different direction. It’s guaranteed that you have never heard the tune about the three-hour tour aboard The S.S. Minnow performed quite like this. While all the lyrics are exactly the same, and you’ll soon recognize them, the musical style isn’t quite as it was heard back in the 1960s.

“Just sit right back, and you’ll hear a tale

A tale of a fateful trip that started from this tropic port

Aboard this tiny ship”

Even if this kind of style isn’t your preferred kind of music, and you’d rather hear it as it was way back in the 1960s, you still have to appreciate the effort and the creativity to do something like this. At least, it’s not simply a duplicate, like nearly every other musical cover.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;”

On some worn street corner somewhere in the world, two women took a song many of us first shouted from car radios and kitchen floors and turned it into something softer, deeper, almost holy. Living on a Prayer gets a unique cover with Leire and a friend. Leire is an up-and-coming musician with more than 236,000 friends on her YouTube channel. 

The song was once all grit and fist-pumping hope. It was kind of an anthem that made you feel invincible with teased hair and reckless dreams. But in their hands, it slowed down and became something tender. It feels like a prayer whispered after life has bruised you a little, or maybe the ache of still believing when the miracle hasn’t shown up yet.

"Livin’ On a Prayer" Lyrics 

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer 

Their harmonies didn’t just sing a childhood favorite; they unraveled it. Every note felt like worn hands folded tight in faith, like hearts that have lived enough life to know hope is not always loud. Sometimes hope sounds like a trembling voice steadying itself in the middle of a street while strangers stop and listen. 

Bon Jovi wrote the song in 1986 about holding on when life feels hard, but these women reminded us that some songs grow up with us. What once sounded like youthful rebellion now feels like survival. Like grit. Like grace. Like meeting work deadlines on top of the day-to-day, with raising kids and trying to make it to bedtime.  

And maybe that’s what wrecks me most. Music has this wild, stubborn way of finding us again. A song from childhood can come back slower, weathered, softer, and somehow say exactly what our older hearts needed to hear. Sometimes faith sounds less like shouting and more like harmony rising in unexpected places. Even on the streets somewhere in this broken and beautiful world.

“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Ecclesiastes 3:1

Check out this wonderful rendition from Josh Groban of ‘Stand By Me’ from his new album titled Cinematic. The album is full of wonderful movie classics, a genre that sounds perfect with Josh Groban’s incredible voice. This passion project includes 10 tracks and serves as a tribute to iconic cinema classics, featuring famous songs and scores from films like The Lion King, Casablanca, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

‘When the night has come and the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me’

The movie Stand By Me was released in 1986 and is a coming-of-age classic directed by Rob Reiner, based on Stephen King's 1982 novella The Body. The movie’s title was taken from Ben E. King's 1961 hit soul song, which plays during the film's iconic closing credits.

When Josh Groban was asked how he managed to whittle down the song selections for his new album to 10 tracks, he shared that he had always wanted to include ‘Stand By Me.’

Josh Groban Started His Album With ‘As Time Goes By’

“I knew what my bookends were. ‘As Time Goes By’ would open the album because (orchestrator) Jeff Atmajian wrote an opening arrangement that captured the essence of what I wanted people to hear first. And then to end with a song that has meant so much to me (“Stand By Me”) and include a tribute to Rob Reiner,” Josh shared.

Josh Groban prepared for recording Cinematic by rewatching the movies that featured songs on the album.

“Not just to get back in the mood but also to educate myself about some of the films that admittedly I didn’t know the songs were from,” said Josh. “The cool thing about an album like this is everyone knows the theme from that movie. But it also pays tribute to the songs that were maybe far more popular than the movies themselves.”

We hope that you enjoyed listening to Josh Groban’s ‘Stand By Me’ rendition today!
