In singing competitions, professionals often set higher standards for contestants than the general public does.
This can make judges seem overly critical, even when the singers are already impressive. However, every so often, a talent emerges that leaves both the judges and the audience in awe. This year, Germany’s “The Voice Kids” featured such talent with sisters Mimi and Josefin.
These young sisters showcased their incredible abilities during their blind audition with a piano-led rendition of Radiohead’s “Creep.” Their flawless English and hauntingly beautiful interpretation of the ’90s hit left everyone stunned. Some even think their version might be better than the original.
As soon as they started, judges Lena Mayer-Landrut and Stefanie Kloß quickly turned their chairs, visibly amazed by the performance. They weren’t alone; The BossHoss duo, Boss Burns and Hoss Power, along with Mark Forster, soon followed, all equally impressed by what they were hearing.
By the end of the song, the judges were speechless. The sisters’ harmonies, power, and dramatic delivery were almost overwhelming. Following a standing ovation, the judges requested an encore, which Mimi and Josefin gladly performed.
During the second performance, Lena pretended to swoon, a reaction that captured the sentiment of everyone watching. The sisters’ talent had made a lasting impression, proving that sometimes, even the professionals are left in awe.
