Droopsy Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Yes that's quite sweet Idd, now, I must be totally honest and say I've always somewhat questioned his voice/singing capabilities (but oh boy can he play a violin! ) Now, in this vid his voice is very clear and he sings very good imo. + don't you guys agree it's so cute how he over-articulates every word, with big teethy grins as a result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band is more professional and the girl is obviously a more skilled violinist than Alexander.
