In a viral video that's grabbed the heart strings of moms all over, a first-grader puts on an amazing performance while singing the song "Peaches" for his school's talent show. Cairo Koomson became the center of attention with his Bowser costume as he sat at a piano and started belting out the words to the song in front of his peers. But what many didn't know was the song was dedicated to his younger brother Eli who lives with autism.

"This one is for my one and only true love, Princess Peach," Cairo sings with a chuckle.
His peers immediately caught on and started singing along with the 7-year-old, which turned into a heartwarming moment.
And although his performance triggered a standing ovation from his peers, his mom, Tracy Koomson, told Today.com that his younger brother was actually moved to tears. Tracy said Eli's display of emotion that day was a "big deal" for their family.
Days before the talent show, Eli busted out singing the lyrics to "Peaches" out of nowhere, causing the family to cry.
Eli, who typically only says three to four word sentences, later refused to sing the song again for his mom. But his actions ended up inspiring Cairo to "be Eli's voice."
The video has since garnered millions of views and has grabbed the attention of actor Chris Pratt.
According to Upworthy, Chris posted the video to Instagram and tagged Jack Black who noted Cairo might be coming for his co-star's job.
