Marcelito Pomoy sings "The Prayer" (Celine Dion/Andrea Bocelli) LIVE on Wish 107.5 Bus REACTION!!! 

Marcelito IS THE REAL DEAL. He and two of his siblings were abandoned by his mother at the tender age of two. She left them under the care of his father who was wrongly accused of a crime for which he ended up in prison. Marcelito and his siblings lived in prison with their dad who later on got sick and had the three of them adopted. Young Marcelito stowed away from his adoptive parents at the age of 8. He fended for himself until he became an adult. Unbeknownst to him, his dad was a favourite customer buying street food from him. He then looked for his biological mother and eldest sister in Manila who treated him coldly during their meeting especially when he overheard his sister saying he was another mouth to feed and that she was going to kick him out of the house. Marcelito was challenged and that's when he decided to compete in Pilipinas Got Talent and won the whole thing. He only finished grade three. He taught himself how to read and write. He is married now with a 5 year old girl. He has performed in most continents and is big in the Philippines. Meeting the man is on top of my bucket list. Proud to be Filipino. Cheers from Toronto.

Thank you for your kind reaction! I love Marcelito too! He is phenomenal! I just can't stop listening to him! BTW, you're a very handsome man!

He hits you to the core. I appreciate your feeback on his talent. Proud to be Filipino. From Toronto, Canada.

He won Philippine Got Talent for singing the prayer as a duet by yourself love your reactions how can you sing like that sitting down it's amazing

I love your reaction. So real. That talent is truly out of this world.

Surprised! Marcileto was the winner of Philippines got talent and this song is his winning song.

really loved how you leaned in and attached to his talent with no doubt but a sense of awe and appreciation -- great reaction - thank you sincerely

Thanks for ur reaction....mabuhay!!!!!

He is one of a kind. a rare voice.

tnx for the reaction...

In 2011 he won Philippines Got Talent for singing a duet of The Prayer by himself a female's voice in a male's voice in Italian you reactions are very good you should see the video of marcelito pomoy and morissette

I like your reactions which seem so real. Can I throw one more at you. In the UK we have a 16/17 year old singer/songwriter called Connie Talbot. At Christmas her long time teacher, mentor and friend passed away. Hus death devastated Connie and to express her heartbreak she wrote a very special song as a tribute to him and to express her pain. It is called GOOD TO ME and the words are stunning for a young girl to write and sing, I admit it had me in tears, She filmed it in black & white to show the colour had gone from her life. Connie is probably the finest popular singer /songwriter in the UK and has grown into a very beautiful woman with a gorgeous personality. Have a look you wont be dissapointed.

He is FINALLY going to be at Ellen's show tomorrow October 29th at 4 pm Toronto time. Best to check your local listing.

You are handsome btw awesome reaction

This a awesome and nice voice Marcelito Pomoy and incredible

This is an updated life story of Marcelito Pomoy. "To give you a background on the life of Marcelito Pomoy.... he was born in the Philippines into a broken family, his mother left the family when he was still at a very tender age of about 2 years old and his father ended up in jail. With no relatives wanting to help, Marcelito had no other choice but to join his father and stay inside the jail for a long time. Eventually one of the prison guards took him home and provided his needs while his dad had to continue serving his prison sentence. He studied kindergarten through to his 3rd grade in grade school in a local public school. He was neglected in that family so he left the only home he ever knew and walked the streets of Manila in search of his mother whom he really never knew, often going for days hungry, doing whatever odd jobs he can do to be able to buy a piece of bread or scraps of food he could find on the street dumps. He learned to humm and sing himself to sleep. He did so much variety of odd jobs like being a helper in construction sites, mixing cement manually with gravel and water and carrying it to the guys needing to build hollow blocks with cement, etc., selling boiled duck eggs which is a popular delicacy called "Balot" upto the wee hours of dawn, peddling ice cream to earn a few cents, he did fixing the pinballs up in bowling lanes daily, earning about $1 USD so he has food to eat then sleep on street curbs for several years, any job an under 12 year old kid could do Marcelito had done it. In my opinion God was guiding him all these years because he never thought of committing crimes just to be able to survive but work was plentiful for his tender age and he suffered tremendously to be able to eat daily but with Gods' Guiding Hand he made it in life. He would hang around clubs and restaurants and watch in amazement at the talent of the singers' performing while he watched from outside the door. He started singing himself and follow the way he sees the singers sing and thru the years he kept on imitating any singer he could watch on other people's TV singing. He was a no read no write kid having left his 3rd year public grade school education to fend for himself and survived all those years. He worked cleaning chicken pens in huge chicken farms and sang to the chickens while cleaning their pens and it was while singing to his audience of egg laying chickens that he discovered he could sing both a male and female voice when he was about 18 years old. We will never know if the hens produced more eggs while Marcelito was serenading them !!! He honed his skills on his own without any vocal coach to teach him because he couldn't afford to hire one then and after gaining confidence in singing other artists songs copying exactly the singers breathing pattern, diction, way of delivering their songs, etc, joined a Philippines TV network conducting a singing competition in Manila. He passed the audition and went on to the semi finals and grand finals.. He won the competition hands down despite so many excellent competitors. His monetary prize was such a huge amount to him that he never imagined he would be able to own in his lifetime as a grade 3 school educated adult. He signed a record contract with the recording studio arm of the same TV network and the rest is now history. His SUFFERINGS in life I just barely touched on the surface.... You won't be able to watch his RU-vid videos about his life story coming from Marcelito Pomoy because he is not comfortable talking in conversational American English. He can sing almost any song in so many different languages with the help of a vocal coach but talk to him in English, interview him in English and he would need a translator to assist him. He is very rich now in terms of an average Filipino earning a decent living in Manila, he bought a decent home with his earnings from the singing contest and is one of the most sought after performer in the Philippines with concerts in Canada, Dubai, Spain and so many other countries. He married his girlfriend in the Catholic Church and now they have a child to enrich their married blissful life as a family. He was able to reunite his mother, father and siblings but they each have different families now. Marcelito has returned to school to be more confident in his life but it's still a very long way to go for him. He does an excellent job of emulating the diction, way of delivering of the singers he hears and watches. His favorite singer's are Celine Dion and Andre Bocelli and the PRAYER is his favorite song that he said launched his successful singing career. He first listens to each song he wants to sing, following their pronunciation, breathing patterns, etc until he's able to follow them like he did with Celine Dions songs, etc. He also jokingly said in the song THE PRAYER at the very end of the clip where he acted as if he coughed... he wanted to bring out the woman that's in him but did not elaborate any further ... and I would rather not speculate myself !!!! He is soft spoken and always a happy person to hangout with and decent but really funny jokes are so natural in him albeit often only in the Tagalog or Filipino language. The one thing that amazes me is that despite the millions of pesos (the Philippines currency ) he earns each year ... he remains as humble as a child and he has not allowed the riches of the world to go thru his head unlike so many people who changed their character when they became wealthy. Only Jesus Christ and Blessed Mother Mary can give Marcelito Pomoy a humble heart with all the success he and his family are now basking in... !!! He also is a natural born comedian, plenty of punchlines albeit mostly in Tagalog, the common dialect in the Philippines but he can imitate the voices of popular local and international personalities and if you close your eyes you'd think the person Marcelito is emulating is present before you. I hope I have shed some light on Marcelito Pomoy. Let's not forget he still is in his grade school level education but he's getting there. I'm Mr. Briones, from the Philippines, too, like Marcelito is, but I've migrated to Australia living in the beautiful city of Sydney. I'm sorry if I've stepped on the toes of one of your viewers talking about his life story. I wanted to explain further in detail Marcelito Pomoys' life story. God Bless us all.

Do you want to be surprised even more? Look up hundreds of world-class talents on the innovative FM station, the Wish 107.5 Bus that has more than half a billion views, and that's where the #AsianPhoenix Filipina Morissete Amon covered "Secret Love Song" by Little Mix that now has 94 million views and prepare to be shocked with her own song "Akin Ka Na Lang" that currently has 69 million views and it will surely blow your mind, and again on the Wish Bus she covered the very difficult song "Rise Up" which is even better than the original done by Andra Day. #GoGoGo
