Amanda Holden, Aleesha Dixon, Simon Cowell and David Walliams never imagined that 13-year-old Cormac Thompson could deliver such an amazing performance.
In this teaser clip from Britain’s Got Talent, the young man is seen lighting up the stage with an angelic rendition of Snow Patrol’s emotional and anthem-like hit “Run”.
Young Cormac did release an album on a major label two years before he auditioned on the show in front of the TV judges.
This time, the four judges and viewers got the chance to watch the 13-year-old Lancashire choral singer impress all his listeners with a cover track that appears on his record.
Cormac said of his audition, “Taking part in BGT was an incredible experience.
When I walked out on to the stage and saw Simon, Amanda, Alesha and David it was very scary but we had a little chat and I felt a bit better.
“The audience were brilliant, when they cheered as I started singing, I knew it would be OK. A huge thank you to Britain’s Got Talent for giving me the chance to sing on such a great stage.” he continued.
Cormac’s got Simon smiling, and the other judges looking like they want to cry.
He has such a sweet, innocent face that is so pure and lovely making that incredible voice a perfect match for his look.
The young bright eyed singer was signed to Decca records after he sang a song for his nannie Colleen on social media during the pandemic.
The lockdowns brought out a lot of talented people!
Cormac got the attention of the iconic label. Theirs is a roster that includes Andrea Bocelli, Dame Shirley Bassey and Diana Ross.
The 13-year-old stunner recorded his debut album inside Metropolis Studios.
The same studio that has hosted talented artists and bands like Queen, U2 and Adele.
Cormac’s grandmother Colleen told Classic FM of her grandson’s moment saying, “I could never have imagined that his little pieces, sung for me, would have led to this amazing opportunity.”
“My husband and I are so very proud of Cormac, and we hope that his singing will give much pleasure. We also hope that it will help to shed a little light during these dark times we are all having to endure.”
The world is glad that Cormac is getting the recognition he deserves!
Simon loved Cormac’s audition, saying he sang it beautifully while making it his own version.
That’s coming from a man who has seen and heard them all, both the good and the bad.
Pure, heavenly, and angelic were words used by Amanda and Alesha when describing the singer’s voice.
This is a face we are going to see more of, and you would do well to follow and subscribe to this brilliant young man.
This is one talent that should not go to waste.
