Simon Says 10-Yr-Old’s Rendition of ‘All By Myself’ Gave Him Goosebumps

Celine Dion is widely thought to be one of the better singers in the world and plenty of people have tried, but failed, to imitate her. But here’s a video of a 10-year-old Filipino boy, Peter Rosalita, who comes as close as nearly anyone of any age.

 

 

For his America’s Got Talent audition, he sings “All By Myself, which Celine popularized in a version she did in 1996. The song was actually written and performed by Eric Carmen in 1975, where it made it to #2 on Billboard’s Hot 100. And an even more obscure fact is that it’s based upon the second movement (Adagio sostenuto) of Sergei Rachmaninoff‘s circa 1900–1901 Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Opus 18.
