Footage has emerged online of nine year old Graham Johnson's winning performance in a Pulp karaoke contest, which was judged by Jarvis Cocker.

The contest took place last week in New York, and the winning performance was Graham Johnson's rendition of 'This Is Hardcore'.

For the first minute or so of the performance, the boy busts out some rather sultry dance moves to the song's instrumental, before he starts singing, and things become even more unnerving. To be honest, he sounds more like Marilyn Monroe than Jarvis Cocker.

Cocker presided over the competition after taking part in a Q&A for the band's new film Pulp: A Film About Life, Death And Supermarkets.

In reaction to the nine year old's performance, Cocker said: "I have to say that was one of the most incredible things I've ever witnessed. In some ways I was a little disturbed by it... but I will not forget that, ever."

Pulp: A Film About Life, Death, And Supermarkets, which was directed by Florian Habicht, is available on DVD now.
