The linked video above ...

Steve Forbert - Romeo's Tune (1979)

Yeah, you likely know Mr Forbert from his great American Pie song. But he had other songs worthy of attenuation...

OK, here's one that caught my attention ...

MIKA - Grace Kelly (2006)

It is an excellent performance, imo.

And the style reminds me of Freddie Mercury back in the day.
