Who needs back up when you've got the echo of an ancient water well?

Singers everywhere, take note: You don’t need backup vocalists if you can find yourself a good well.

A Kansas student named Tiffany Day was in Italy recently and started singing her rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” into a deep lattice-covered well. Someone with her was smart enough to record it and now it’s gone viral.

Day has since posted and has promised her new fans that she’ll post more.
