Charice Pempengco Can Sing!

Charice Pempengco was one of the gifted children featured on Oprah today. Her voice brought tears to my eyes and since I'm sure they weren't tears of sadness they must have been that other emotion that induces tears--joy.

It was mentioned on Oprah that Charice as well as several other of the kids had been YouTube phenoms for sometime. So I went looking. I found and listened to several YouTube of Charice and was about to move on to one of the other kids but YouTube wouldn't let me save the Charice vids to my playlists or favorites because they were doing site maintenance. I then realized that by posting them I could not only save them but also have tonight's post. So here they are.

The first one is of Charice on the Ellen Degeneres show last December. She sang two full songs that really show the range of her voice and her stage presence. Remember she is only fifteen!

In the second one she is singing and dancing in a group and I have no idea where or when but the song, Joyful, Joyful is one of favorites.
