What will you do if you need to make a choice between yourself and your friend?
*
In a school in England, a few years ago, a teenage girl heard a boy singing in another room. She liked it, and found out that the boy’s name was Jonathan Antoine. The girl — Charlotte Jaconelli — also liked singing. A little later, the music teacher at school advised them to sing together. They did. They started singing together and became very good friends.
Around that time, Britain’s Got Talent was finding new singers and performers. Charlotte wanted to enter the show with Jonathan but he was worried about the way he looked. However, Charlotte talked him into going on the show.
They did the first audition in April 2012. When they came onto the stage, the four judges didn’t think they looked good. Some audiences laughed when they saw them. Then they began to sing and everyone was amazed. They sang very well. When they finished, people stood up and cheered.
All the judges thought Charlotte and Jonathan were great, but one judge, Simon Cowell, advised Jonathan to sing himself because he thought he was fantastic.
Jonathan didn’t think for long. He looked at his friend, and then looked back at the judges, and said that he wanted to stay in the competition with Charlotte. They carried on together, but they didn’t win the competition at last. However, they didn’t think it was a big deal.
A few weeks later, Simon Cowell gave them the chance to record a CD. They made the CD, and then they thought about a name for it. They chose the word: “Together”.
