Homeless Guy is the Latest Internet Sensation Because of His Excellent Piano Skills

Donald Gould, a 51-year-old former Marine who happens to be homeless for the past seven years already is an internet star at the moment!

A lot of people were attracted when a video of him was uploaded on YouTube. He surprised everyone with his fantastic musical skills when he sat down and laid his hands on a public piano!

While playing a piano, Aroar Natasha was captivated by the poor man's excellent playing and so she took the footage and shared it online. Last June 30, the video has exceeded 6 million views on YouTube! I was also amazed by his talent!

Natasha talked to the man and she found out about his sad back story. According to him, he was an ex-Marine but also a former music teacher. In 1998, his wife passed away. Sadly, he was addicted to drugs which was a reason why his son was taken away from him.

Unfortunately, Donald lives in the streets and plays on these public pianos in exchange of tips. And sometimes, he also teaches free piano lessons to kids who see him play.

A few days later, his video went viral and became popular online. According to Donald, he was hoping that this will help him find his now 18-year-old son.

Luckily, a lot of people were amazed by his talent, so a local restaurant in Florida has expressed willingness to give him a regular gig on their bar! Also, a GoFundMe account was created to help him. The campaign has raised more than $12,000 through the donations of 536 people in a single day.

“Donald needs a second chance at life. He is extremely musically talented and can play or teach any instrument that comes his way! Let’s help make this man’s dream come true. He’s a very sweet soul!” said the campaign initiators about him.
