Declan Galbraith is the latest pint-sized prodigy to go viral. He’s now 17, but wowing internet users with this video he recorded when he was just 13 years old.

Declan has more than just a baby face and angelic voice going for him. He penned this socially conscious song himself, showing a musical maturity well beyond his years. The sad part is that all these years later, the song is still just as relevant as it was when it was first written.

The world may still be full of doom and gloom, but Declan’s life appears to be somewhat sunnier. He’s already got three albums after his belt and another one on the way!
