So when 11-year-old Nikolas stepped onto the stage of The Voice Kids – Germany, he knew there was tremendous potential but also tremendous pressure. Plenty of people had gone from that stage right into a music career, but plenty more had faded into obscurity.
So Nikolas made a great song choice: “Someone You Loved,” the hit song by Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi, released in 2018. The emotional ballad, co-written by Capaldi, explores the pain of heartbreak and the struggle to move on from a past love. And then he gave the performance of his life, turning four chairs and gathering over 20 million views on YouTube afterward.
