"Nick Patera Sings"

Now this blew me away! Nick Patera is a contestant in the Little Mermaid (Broadway version) "Give Us Your Voice" contest. He contributed a performance of the Ariel song, "Part of Your World", and sang it with an amazing woman’s voice! If I hadn't seen the video recording, I wouldn't have been this impressed! ...

I did a little research, and apparently this is not an uncommon talent. In the musical world, Nick is known as a countertenor -- an adult male who sings in an alto, mezzo or soprano range, often through use of falsetto, or sometimes natural head voice. And he's quite good!
