Young Malea Emma Sings 'A Change Is Gonna Come'
Listen to this young girl named Malea Emma sing the song ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’ by Sam Cooke.
“I was born by the river in a little tent, oh and just like the river I've been running ev'r since
It's been a long time, a long time coming, but I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die 'cause I don't know what's up there, beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtown, somebody keep tellin' me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will”
What a powerful voice for such a young girl! There is so much strength in her voice and her vibrato is beautiful. Not to mention, Malea Emma’s performance is so passionate and full of emotion.
“Hi everyone, my name is Malea Emma Tjandrawidjaja. I am 9 years old and I love singing! I have been singing since I was 1 year old,” the young singer writes on her YouTube page. “Singing makes me happy and I hope everyone who enjoys my songs will be happy too!”
In 2018, a video of Malea Emma singing the national anthem at a LA Galaxy game went viral on the internet. Since then, she has sung the national anthem at more than 40 events, including the MLS Cup Final with a record breaking 73K people in attendance. Last year she was invited to perform on American Idol in front of the celebrity judges (Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan) and was awarded with the Golden Ticket, even though she was too young to compete.
‘A Change Is Gonna Come’ is a powerful and popular song that has been covered by many throughout the years, and Malea Emma’s cover of the song is just wonderful! We hope you enjoyed it.
