Timing is everything for this Filipino street kid who sells flute in the streets of Clark, in the province of Pampanga, Philippines. On the side, he sings to his customers and allows them to video him while singing! He’s got pure, raw natural talent. In this video below, he is covering a number of hit songs including that of Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, and Ne-Yo.

The clip has been viewed over 100,000 times in the first 24 hours it was posted on August 3rd and is spreading virally on blogs, email and social media. Only three days later today, it has already garnered over 700,000 views and counting!

If you have told anyone 10 years ago that in the future, someone can be famous and reach millions and millions of people around the world in one week’s time, no one would believe you.

The ‘future’ of instant fame happened six years ago when three cool geeks from California invented YouTube in 2005. Since May 2010, YouTube exceeds 2 billion views a day. 2 billion. Since March 2010, there are 24 hours of video uploaded PER minute. I thought there should be more but over the years, there have only really been a few breakout artists who attribute their good fortune to YouTube: Arnel Pineda, Charice, Greyson Chance, Kina Grannis, Marie Digby, and Justin Beiber comes to mind.

That’s what is special about Maria Aragon, a Filipino-Canadian 10-year old girl from Winnipeg, Canada. NOT everyone gets their chance! Her simple video of her covering Lady Gaga’s new track “Born this way” stood out from the hundreds of cover of the same song. She wasn’t trying to be anything. She wasn’t trying to copy Lady Gaga, she was just doing her own interpretation of the song!

The world Premiere of Charice’s Music Video “Pyramid” debuted at Oprah Winfrey’s official site a few days ago and I’m pretty excited to blog about it. Didn’t realize her album is set for release on May 11th.

To those unfamiliar, Ellen DeGeneres ’sort of’ discovered the then 15 year old girl with the big voice from the Philippines Charice, after Charice made her first US television appearance in the popular daytime show two years ago. Oprah Winfrey, the queen of television and considered to be the most influential woman in the world happened to notice her too. That encounter began a wonderful journey for Charice toward making it as an international artist! The rest is history.

We all have seen these happen. People who were virtual unknown catapult to instant stardom beyond their wildest imaginations simply for putting out there a 2-minute or so video on YouTube. Bear in mind, YouTube was non-existent 4 years ago. Since its inception in February 2005, the way most of us ‘view’ life revolved around watching those clips, forwarding it, talking about it, blogging about it- next thing you know, the video has gone viral.

YouTube has channels for everything- comedians, directors, gurus, musicians, reporters, entertainers, politicians and the ordinary ‘Youtuber’ further subdivided into regular viewers, those who have real talent like Charice, those who don’t, those who are desperate for attention or just plain crazies.

The brother of a friend of mine had a wedding recently and hired Phoeben Teocson who is considered to be one of the top 5 videographer in the Philippines. I saw the wedding video I was floored. I just love how the video was taken and edited. The music chosen was very good as well.
