I've seen a couple videos about this guy, and what made me actually cry was him at the age were we learn to structure words together he is playing requests for songs. A blind child is playing music when most of us are still learning how to potty in the toilet. Bravo! also to his father grave yard shift at UPS is the most painful intense job around. 5 hours of constant movement loading packages into the trucks you leave that places dead tired. That father deserves an award.
