One young woman’s stunning performance of the song “You Are the Reason” has gone viral, racking up millions of views.
Love is a subject that has and continues to keep songwriters and musicians busy. Whether a track about new love, a breakup or the loss of a loved one, songs about love are churned out at an impressive rate. While music tastes and sounds may change, society’s yearning for love and to be loved does not.
In a video posted to YouTube, Mia Black, a young woman, while standing in the middle of a busy, tourist-filled location, steps up to the microphone and sings Calum Scott’s “You Are the Reason.”
Seconds into the video, after belting out the tune’s opening lyrics, one thing is clear: Mia is abundantly and enormously musically gifted. The video’s title describes the young woman as being 12 years old, but her voice sounds like it is coming from someone many years her senior.
The clip of Mia’s breathtaking vocal performance, since posted in 2019, has been watched more than 9.3 million times!
It’s not hard to see why the video has gotten so many eyeballs. The tone, control and strength of Mia’s voice are startling. She sounds like a seasoned professional, like someone who has been performing for many years. Other people walking by Mia also seem genuinely taken aback by her stunning voice as well.
Several people stand around Mia, taking in her astounding performance. Even those who do not entirely stop, those passing by, give a glance at the talented street performer.
At the conclusion of the 3-minute clip, Mia receives a hearty round of applause.
This young woman has been truly blessed musically with a wonderful voice.
