Over the years, there have been several superstars that will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to top.

You are aware of the kind of individuals or bands I am referring to: Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Madonna, and The Beatles.

The fact that these hits are still as well-known now as they were when they were originally released says volumes about their impact and their popularity.

The fact that some attempt to mimic and cover the works of these renowned artists is also not particularly shocking.

After all, some people argue that emulating the greatest practitioners in your craft is a really wise way to learn it.

Of course, it’s easier said than done to play a song in the style of a timeless music business great and to some degree of success.

Imagine now attempting to sing such a song in front of a packed arena on a stage. It sounds like a big fat ‘no, thank you.’

For 16-year-old German Benedikt Köstler, however, it was an imperative task meant to showcase his abilities to the world.

To cut a long tale short, Benedikt chose to attempt and impress the judges on the German version of The Voice by performing the late, great Elvis Presley song Always On My Mind.

You’ll all agree that it’s not an easy ballad to perform, but Benedikt was more than prepared for his big break.

Benedikt ended up impressing the judges so much that all five of them pressed their buzzers to turn around and watch him finish the song, paying homage to one of the greatest musical legends in history.

Even if the King is no longer with us, his memory will endure because of actors like young Benedikt.
