Prince Harry is famous for his dance moves, but he’s never shown any other type of musical talent — until now.
The 27-year-old royal has made his recording debut, playing tambourine on the Official Diamond Jubilee song Sing.
Harry seems bewildered by his musical instrument in the film clip to the song, but plays along nonetheless.

Sing was co-written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Take That frontman Gary Barlow and features performances by the Military Wives Choir and the Commonwealth Band.
“We went on a journey with this record, meeting and recording with some beautifully talented singers and musicians,” Gary Barlow said.
“I can’t believe we’ve managed to get the amount of people we got featured on this song, from all corners of the Commonwealth, but we did! I’m very proud of the result and hope people enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.”
The Commonwealth Band includes 210 musicians from around the world, including the African Children’s Choir — whose soloist Lydia opens and closes the track — Australian Aboriginal artist Gurrumul, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the Slum Drummers from Kenya’s Kibera slum the Jolly Boys from Jamaica and the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force Band.

The song will be released on June 1 and will be played at the Diamond Jubilee Concert at Buckingham Palace on June 4.
All funds raised by sales of the song will go to The Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust, which supports six charities.
