I was moved today by this video from Youtube regarding Emmanuel Kelly, an X-Factor participant who was born in Iraq and adopted by an Australian mother.

Honestly there are better contestant in term of vocal, but that doesn't matter, when he sings you could almost felt the song and he really sings from his heart. The song "Imagine" become more meaningful when he sing it.

Imagine by John Lennon:

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as on.



I'm a dreamer too just as you are John Lennon and Emmanuel Kelly.
