Ronan Parke – His Golden Voice Has Made Him a Singing Star at Age 13!

Early in 2011, Ronan Parke was your typical English schoolboy, living in the small village of Poringland. But Ronan was also a boy with a dream, and in April 2011 he took a big step toward achieving that dream. That month, Ronan auditioned for British TV show Britain’s Got Talent, singing a song called “Feeling Good”. Before he even finished singing, both the audience and the judges were on their feet, giving him a standing ovation!

Ronan went on to make it to the finals of Britain’s Got Talent. In the end, he finished as runner-up, but his singing career was just beginning. After the show, Ronan made numerous appearances, and in October 2011, he will release his first album!

This video shows some pictures of Ronan as he sings “Because of You”, the song from his final Britain’s Got Talent performance.
