7-year-old boy with autism plays beautiful Taylor Swift medley

Jacob Velazquez, an adorable 7-year-old boy who was diagnosed with autism three years ago, delivered a cute message to Taylor Swift this week before plowing into a powerful piano medley of her songs from the 1989 album.

"I'm your biggest fan. I hope you can sign this for me one day," Jacob said, holding up his deluxe version of 1989. "I hope we can jam. I created something for you [Taylor Swift], and it goes a little something like this."

Jacob's mother, Tina Velazquez, wrote on AutismSpeaks.org that "he dreams (literally has dreams) of meeting her every night."

Dreams do come true:

Aside from making this medley, Jacob is working on his self-titled debut album. He previously released his first music video for his single "Fur Elise" (below) in September 2014 when he was just 6 years old.
