Icelandic youngster Daníel Breki McCollough, who turned two last November, has become an Internet sensation. A video of him singing along to Thinking out Loud with Ed Sheeran has become a hit amongst people world wide. It's not only his cute singing and guitar moves that has gathered attention but also the singing of his mum's boyfriend Heiðar Ingi Árnason.

Daníel Breki's mother Aldís Björk Óskarsdóttir tells DV the small one is a fan of Ed Sheeran like herself and Heiðar Ingi. It's not the first time a video of the two goes viral. They recorded a cover of Sam Smith's hit Lay Me Down in February.





Aldís Björk tells DV that they have gotten so used to little Daníel Breki's talent that the response to today's video was quite shocking. She explains that the main reason for recording the videos is to show her brother who lives in London.

Aldís Björk and Heiðar Ingi plan to attend a concert with Ed Sheeran this summer. Daníel Breki will not get to got this time but surely in a few years time. The couple have seen Sheeran in action once before.

For those interested Heiðar Ingi has his own Facebook fan page where users can see more of his great performances.
