Thousands of shares, comments, covers and more than two million views… Since April 30, a video has moved TikTok. We see an ambulance driver interpreting “The meaning of life”, one of the key titles of the cartoon “The Lion King”, to a child lying on a stretcher. Without a false note!
No wonder, the person concerned is none other than Myke Ayden, a Strasbourgeois passionate about music. “I have been an artist for a very long time,” laughs the 37-year-old. “I went through the conservatory, I did a lot of castings like for Eurovision, Star Academy etc. Often it stopped in the semi-finals! I write, I compose, I play, I sing, I love it! »
