Richard Goodall’s Viral School Assembly Performance That Left Even Steve Perry Speechless Has Passed 25 Million Views

You never know where you’re going to find the next amazing voice! But word of mouth has started to spread about Richard Goodall, a grade school janitor who performed a cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” for an audience of youngsters at a school assembly that mirrored a concert experience.

Goodall, who hails from Terre Haute, Indiana, casually stepped up to the mic, using a boombox for musical accompaniment, and showed the kids that he had some amazing pipes. As you can hear in the video shared below, an audible “Oh god” response can be heard from an audience member after he sang the first line.

And the kids got into it as well, first waving their arms along to the song, then slowly rising to their feet to dance along, eventually providing Goodall with a standing ovation by the end of the video.
