6-Year-Old Miles plays STEVIE WONDER "Ordinary Pain" in his own key

Song is "Ordinary Pain" by Stevie Wonder from the album, "Songs in the Key of Life"

Backstory:
6-year-old Miles, who has perfect pitch, was finding the right key to sing this song in (to match his vocal range) and when I suggested C, he protested that C sounded “too dark” for this song, and that he needed to change the tuning of the piano “up a few cents” so that the song would sound a little “brighter.” Miles feels that this is a very sad song, but doesn’t want to make it sadder by playing it in a key that sounds “too dark” to him.
