Irishman Brian O’Sullivan decided the best way to remember his late friend Ger ‘Farmer’ Foley would be to deliver a rendition of The Killers’ Mr. Brightside. He managed to get everyone inside the pub to sing along with him, and together they created a truly magical moment.

Even the band who created the hit song was impressed. They sent out the tweet you see below, offering Brian a chance to take the stage with them if their lead singer ever needs a break.
I’ll admit, I cried while watching the video. Not because it was sad or depressing. I cried because it was so powerful and inspiring.
It makes you think, “Would anyone stand on a bar, rip their shirt off and sing a song to celebrate my life?” Sadly, the answer is probably no.
Let’s change that!
