When Emma Young, an assistant nurse at St. Helena Hospice in Colchester, sat down to the piano Friday afternoon, she hardly expected that her performance would soon become an internet sensation.

The 21-year-old's incredible rendition of Adele's 2008 cover of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love" brought patients and colleagues to tears, and quickly went viral when the hospice posted a video to social media.

“It is just insane," Young told the East Anglian Daily Times. "On Friday night, I was really exited about the fact it had 1,000 views. Now it is more than 40,000."

Following the success of the video, Young has undertaken the challenge of creating a charity Christmas number one hit to benefit the hospice.

With talent like hers, we can't wait to see what she comes up with. cc: Adele - a duet maybe?
