hey,guys! currently i'm enjoying a song named "forever young" ...this song is played by a band composed of several children..sorry i don't know the band's name..just love those kid's pure voice and the liyrics. i ocassionally heard this song when watching a special programme for Del Piero--the famous Italian soccer star..he performed so well this season though he's already 34 years old now..
have u heard this song before? do u enjoy it?
when did u heard it and what story is it about?

Yep! I posted the link to the youtube link in the message above yours Karthickvr. Be honest Rod Stewart's version was better.
And by the way, I made a mistake, the original is from Alphaville, not from Rod.

I thought it was going to be hard to find, but there you have it. I prefer the original Rod Stewart version to be honest.

hola,rich! i checked the children's version just now and find thats not a special version for del piero..the band is called "forever young"(im' not sure) that's composed of several primary school students from France..they also have sung covers of a few more classic music such as " we will rock you" ," i love rock 'n' roll", "boys don't cry"...i think u can search their songs easily on the internet..
have a nice day and happy mylotting!

Hehehehe, now you're asking a bit too much from good ol' Richie, but I'll try. I'm sure if I do find it, it wont be entirely legal, so I'll just PM the link to you

Well, here's some small proof of how awesome I am. I managed to find who these kids are. Well, not really who they are, but where these songs come from.
There's this band that makes covers from Queen, I reckon they are French and they all look like teenagers, but it seems they were a big hit in France some years ago. Anyways, I didn't go that deep into who they are and what they did, lets go straight to the kiddies band.
This teen tribute band had a bunch of releases, singles, dvds and so on. One of the DVDs was a French special edition that included a bonus CD called "Kids will rock you" and that's the kiddie band we're talking about.
The first song of that cd is, of course, Queen's "We will rock you". Video clip of the kids' version here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypEcMC0IpTU
the rest are all covers of songs from the 80's.
I have found two torrent files for this cd, but they have no seeds. So you guys are on your own here, try e-mule, limewire or whatnot if you use them. I don't so I couldn't check. "Kids will rock you" that's the name of the cd.
I'm not sure if it's possible to actually buy it, so you could try searching for it too. Seems like a good way of spending your Mylot earnings!
