A friend shared that same clip on FB last night. That family looked like they were having fun. It made me think of the car rides when our children were young and we listened to Les Miz to pass the time.
Thanks a lot, Merril
People are definitely getting creative, aren’t they? There’s an entertaining Sound of Music clip floating around, too.
Thanks very much, Jill
Tremendous
That’s what I thought – obviously. Thanks a lot, Geoff
What an amazing collaboration from a very talented family. The young boy has a great voice x
Doesn’t he just?! Thanks very much, June.
Just wonderful, loved it. What a great family!
I’m pleased cos I don’t normally reblog. Thanks very much, Sue.
I shared that clip on Facebook and have been spreading a lot of joy. I especially enjoyed the way the two younger kids squabble in the beginning. Don’t know if it was staged or not, but as a parent, I sure thought it looked authentic. Then, of course, the song itself. Caught the times perfectly, and in such a creative way.
I’m so pleased, Laurie. It deserves to go viral. hanks very much.
That’s brilliant!
Isn’t it?! Thanks a lot, Sheree
ABC News has a feature called ‘America Strong’ at the end of each evening broadcast. Last night they called it ‘Britain Strong’ and played this …. David Muir was struggling not to cry at the end. thank you for sharing, Derrick and thank you or leading me to Bereaved Sigle Dad’s Blog which I have duly followed. Courage to all.
Gary, despite his real difficulties, is a hugely entertaining blogger. I am pleased you followed the lead, Osyth. Thank you very much.
I’m really looking forward to reading more from him having taken a quick turn round his blog.
If there is a silver lining to the corona cloud, it may be in sparking individual creativity again. 🙂
An excellent response, Lavinia. Thanks a lot.
Enjoyed that video clip, Derrick 🙂
I’m pleased, Rosaliene. Thank you very much.
I saw that video on our news! Thank you for sharing it, Derrick! It is worthy of watching again and again! It brings joy-tears! 🙂
Isn’t it wonderful to see that family smile and sing…they are very talented musically!
And they have brought joy to the whole world!
(((HUGS))) 🙂
They have, indeed, Carolyn. Thanks very much X
Great share Derrick – thanks for making first coffee extremely enjoyable this morning!
🙂 I’m pleased, Pauline. Thanks very much
Fantastic! I am sharing it with my students to boost their morale a bit.
Thank you so much for sharing, Derrick.
I’m so pleased, Dolly. Thanks very much.
My pleasure, Derrick. I am happy to report that I showed it last night in my online classes to my students’ delight. They send you their collective applause.

Saw this on Twitter and retweeted it. What a delight it was! It deserves all its Kudos.
Indeed, Lisa. Thanks very much.
Hmm, is the family in musical theater, perhaps? The singing was very impressive, in addition to be clever. Thanks for sharing the video. I enjoyed it a lot.
They were very professional and the young boy has an impressive voice. Thanks very much, Liz.

I saw the family performance on Facebook and enjoyed how genuine and talented they are. Looked like they’d worked hard but also had fun together.
Indeed, JoAnna. Thanks very much.
That performance is exquisite!
‘The Wall’ touched me deeply.
Yes, indeed – on both counts. Gary is an excellent blogger. Thanks very much, Uma.
Thank you for the re-blog Derrick and for sharing the ‘talented family’s song’. Brilliant!
I think it has now appeared on many sources, Clare. Even on Have I Got News For You? last night. Thank you very much
