TYWC: Leo Cheng “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran Cover
Leo Cheng's Artist Statement:
"Hello, I am Leo Cheng, a rising 10th grader attending Syosset High School. It was a fun and spectacular experience playing the song “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran. This song is a piece of creative work that gives others ideas, inspiration, and a feeling of happiness and joy, amidst all the sufferings and sorrow many people are going through today. ⠀
⠀
When my family and I played “Perfect” together, we know this song will remind ourselves to love unconditionally, to be grateful to the people around us, and to stay optimistic and strong in this horrible pandemic. My sister, Annabelle Cheng who attends the same highschool as me and my dad, Andrew Cheng who works as a computer programmer also worked really hard on this with me. Thank you and we hope this heart-warming music will brighten up your day and send a warm and hopeful message for everyone.”
