Daniel Buccheri just redefined what it means to be a best man.
In a six-minute YouTube video, the Australian musician gave his best man speech by singing rewritten lyrics to iconic pop songs Stay With Me by Sam Smith, Every Breath You Take by The Police and Can You Feel The Love Tonight by Elton John.
While playing the piano, Buccheri sang lyrics to his brother Adrian and new sister-in-law Sarah, retelling classic stories the friends shared and dishing out some fun jokes about the couple.
At the end of his song, Buccheri returns to the Stay With Me melody and expresses how much love his brother and new sister-in-law have for each other.
This is love, its clear to see, he sings. So wont you raise your glasses with me? This is love, its clear to see. I wish you joy and happiness for eternity.
The song leaves the newly married couple chuckling, tearing up and entranced by the best mans speech.
Buccheri told Mashable that he didnt know what to say for his best mans speech, so instead he decided to write lyrics that could convey a message of love and appreciation for his brother and sister-in-law.
"I really didnt want to write a conventional speech, so I thought I would do what I do best as a muso and write a song," Buccheri told Mashable. "I didn't expect it to go viral. It was just something that came out and fell together like it did. It just had all the right elements."
