Let\u2019s hear it for singer Deniece Williams<\/strong>. The 75-year-old singer, best known to fans for her 1984 hit \u201cLet\u2019s Hear It For The Boy\u201d from the Footloose soundtrack, looks and sounds like no time has passed since Kevin Bacon<\/a><\/strong> taught Chris Penn<\/strong> to dance to the soundtrack of her vocals in the early \u201880s.<\/p>\n

Williams\u2019 voice is still going strong\u2014the singer is too, for that matter. Video of a recent performance of \u201cLet\u2019s Hear It For The Boy\u201d at a Gary, Indiana celebration of what would have been Michael Jackson\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> 67th birthday<\/a> is going viral, with fans marveling that Williams\u2019 voice is a stunning throwback to when the hit song was first released.<\/p>\n

Williams, a native of Indiana just like the Jackson family<\/a>, was honored at the birthday festivities and treated the crowd to some of her biggest hits.<\/p>\n
