Landau eugene murphy jr.!

>> before this all began, I was

Just a normal guy, living in

Logan, west virginia, washing

Cars.

I never dreamed of being here.

I just wish that the journey

Didn't have to be so rough.

There's been a lot of low

Points.

At 19, I was homeless.

At that moment I thought I was

Going to die.

Singing gave me hope.

I picked myself up.

I met my beautiful wife.

And we started a family.

And I owe everything.

Car washer to crooner

Extraordinaire.

Could I see him in vegas

Tomorrow?

Absolutely.

My dream.

Bad.

Life forever.

Virginia, give it up for landau
