Leo Rojas - El Condor Pasa

An Ecuadorian musician who became famous winning the German equivalent of Britain's Got Talent in 2011 (Rojas has lived most if his adult life in Germany). This got him through the semifinals round. If the melody, composed by Peruvian Daniel Alomia Robles in 1913, sounds familiar, it'll probably have you thinking of Simon & Garfunkel's "If I Could" with Paul Simon's lyrics added to a beautiful melody based on traditional Andean music.
