Not everyone can sing one of Frank Sinatra’s songs, but 5-year-old Sophie Fatu sure can nail them.
She is a YouTube star already, and she recently performed in front of a huge audience on the television show “Little Big Shots.” It’s hosted by Steve Hardy and features little kids with a big talent.
Sophie decided to sing one of her favorite songs. He mom played piano for her in the background as she took the stage. She began to see “My Way,” and the people in the audience couldn’t believe what they were hearing.
How can such a little girl have such an amazing voice?
The cute little girl was dressed in a fancy dress and her hair was done in curls. She has adorable big eyes and the cutest facial expressions as she belted out the lyrics. If you aren’t familiar with the song, the lyrics are:
“And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I’ll say it clear
I’ll state my case of which I’m certain
I’ve lived a life that’s full
I’ve traveled each and every highway
and more, much more than this
I did it my way”
“Regrets I’ve had a few
But then again too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the by-way
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
“Yes, there were times
I’m sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all
And I stood tall
And did it my way”
“I’ve loved, I’ve laughed, and cried
I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh no, oh no, not me
I did it my way
“For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
Yes, it was my way”
Violinists also played behind the little toddler as she sang so beautifully.
She captured the attention of everyone in the crowd and the viewers watching on television. It seems so strange to see such a small girl performing so well on stage.
In the end, she got a standing ovation from the audience, and she is now more popular than ever.
The sky is the limit for the tiny tot superstar. If she is this good at such a young age, what will she be like in 10 years? She not only had all the lyrics memorized, but she put her heart and soul into her performance.
Sophie gets her love for music from her mom.
They often sing together, and they are even releasing a duet on a new album. Sophie travels around performing at different festivals and fairs. She has even performed with the West Virginia Sympathy Orchestra and Lawrence Loh.
Sophie has her own Facebook page, where her mom and manager share photos of her.
It seems like she has plenty of other hobbies aside from music. There are photos of her fishing, picking flowers, dressing up, and swinging. She is just a normal little girl with an extraordinary gift for music.
There’s a lot packed into the tiny package that is Sophie Fatu.
Offering an adorable smile and big blue eyes, she is more than happy to perform and make people happy with her music. This kid is going places, and music is just the beginning for her. Luckily, we all get to watch her grow into an amazing artist.
