Shaheen Jafargholi, a 12-year-old contestant on this season of Britain’s Got Talent, may be giving Susan Boyle a run for her money when it comes to securing the title of 2009 champion.

Boyle, a 47-year-old unemployed charity worker who took the world by storm when she sang “I Dreamed a Dream” on the hit reality show, seemed like the only front-runner to win this season – until Shaheen Jafargholi stepped onto the stage, that is.

Jarfagholi, a 12 year old Iranian from Whales, was a little nervous as he approached the stage to perform the Amy Winehouse hit "Valerie" in front of the audience, judges and millions of viewers. As he began to sing the song, the audience started cheering. Seconds later, judge Simon Cowell interrupted Shaheen’s performance telling him “you've got this really wrong.”

Shaheen, looking disappointed and confused, was composed and calm as he poilitely listened to Simon's critique of his first performance. Shaheen's mom (watching from backstage) seemed concerned for her son as he stood alone on stage.

Simon then asked Shaheen if he sang any other songs, in which he quietly revealed he wanted to sing Michael Jackson’s hit “Whose Loving You.”

One note into the song was all it took to capture the attention of audience members and judges. Simon started smirking as Shaheen nailed every note of the incredibly hard song to sing.

Afterwards, the judges gave him amazing comments and Simon revealed that this song may have just changed his life.

"This is how one song can change your life," Simon reveals. "This may be the start of something special for you, young man."
