Many would agree that children’s singing voices are pleasant to the ear, not because they are by definition “professional,” but because they are innocent, soft, and make us happy. Whether singing the alphabet or opting for “Mary Had A Little Lamb,” there is no nursery rhyme or children’s tune a parent doesn’t want to hear coming out of their sweet child’s mouth in a sing-song-y manner.
One 5-year-old girl, Sophie Fatu, proves just the opposite in that her singing voice is truly what one can classify as professional for a child like herself. After listening, one is left thinking, “How can such a little girl sing so beautifully?! Meanwhile, I’m several years older, and my singing sounds like a donkey with a sinus infection!”
Once curly-haired Sophie hit the stage, the crowd was blown away at her perfect pitch-no, not “Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star”-but to Frank Sinatra’s beloved classic, “My Way.” Her choice of the song may seem complicated and even unheard of for her young age, but she tackled it perfectly. The little angel busted out the lyrics as they came out like a true professional singer, with confidence and all.
Frank Sinatra would sure be proud and definitely as shocked as we are to hear how well-developed her young voice is at the ripe age of four. Fingers crossed that this deserving cutie gets a record deal!
However, Sophie is not the only talented individual in her family. Her mother, Victoria Fatu, is a singer and classical concert pianist herself. Now it makes sense how Sophie achieved her singing ability; it’s talent that runs in the b***d and was surely built through lots of time, effort, and passion.
