2 Men Play “Boogie Woogie Jam” At Train Station. Then Woman Joins In For An Epic Performance.

Each day, people all over the world will get out of bed, prompted by the shrill sounds of an alarm, get themselves showered and dressed, and then leave the house for work. Where I live, in a fairly rural area a few hours from a large city, most people will commute by car into the city or the surrounding suburbs.

These commuters spend hours a day in their cars. They drink coffee, eat breakfast, and listen to the radio, music, podcasts, or audiobooks. Some people carpool and spend even more time with their office mates, but share the responsibility of driving and wear and tear on their vehicles, not to mention the environment.

There is another group of people who use public transportation to commute to work. They ride buses and trains into and around the city. People come into their station at the same time every morning, board the same train, and then repeat the same routine in the evening on the way home. Things can get boring and redundant. It’s no fun. But, in London, UK, there’s a train station that is just a little more exciting than the others.

St. Pancras Station has a public piano. It sounds like a strange concept, but it’s a big hit with commuters. People present mini-concerts, playing for the travelers as they hurry to and from the trains on the way to their next destination, and public pianos like the one in this video have become a popular attraction.

But, the piano in the video isn’t just any old piano. This particular piano was donated by Sir Elton John. He surprised commuters with an impromptu performance and then left his Yamaha piano. The trio in this video gives their own unique performance on the special instrument.

While the two men play a rousing duet of “Boogie Woogie Jam”, the woman joins in with drums, well, drumsticks at least. Together, they give an entertaining performance that the commuters love and Elton John himself would be proud of.
