With just her Amy Winehouse-esque voice, along with a guitar and a piano, Jordan transformed the well-known anthem into a hauntingly beautiful ballad. The rendition was so unique and captivating that it even caught the attention of the band, with Queen retweeting her audition video and expressing their praise.
The judges, particularly Heidi Klum, were quick to show their admiration for Jordan’s performance. In fact, Klum hit the coveted Golden Buzzer, a privilege reserved for acts that leave a lasting impression on the show.

The experience of watching a 13-year-old capture the essence of such a well-loved song left viewers amazed. One user quoted Queen’s lead vocalist, Freddie Mercury, saying, “As Freddie once said, ‘Do whatever you want with my music as long as you don’t make it boring.’ I think he’d really like this.”
