Youtube/MusicTalentNow

In one of the most unexpected turn of events in television history, Simon Cowell falls in love with a man’s unique rendition of Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love” on the X Factor UK. 

A man with a striking resemblance to Cowell delivered a jazzy rendition of Presley’s iconic song. Prior to his audition, the man described as “Scottish Simon Cowell,” bonded profusely with the notoriously harsh judge. The three judges got a kick out of his cover that can only be described as one of kind. 

“Edward I can’t get over how handsome you are,” gushed Cowell. “You’re so good looking, I mean I shouldn’t be saying that, but I don’t know what it is I just feel drawn to you, Edward.”

Staying true to their praises, the judges granted him a unanimous three yeses, advancing him further into the show. The two new friends share a meaningful hug before the Scottish singer exits off screen as Cowell kisses the gift Edward presented to him. 

This audition is surely one of a kind! You can watch it all go down in the video below and be sure to let us know what you think in the comments!
