When this Filipino singer sat down for a karaoke party with his boys, there was no telling that he’d become a viral sensation. Boss Nhor took on the soaring melodies of Celine Dion’s hit “My Heart Will Go On” in the original key and scored a 2.1 million view video for his troubles. Dion’s signature ballad is a big ask for even a female singer to nail, but it takes a special kind of singer to take it on as a man. Nhor had the hit on lock, though, singing with a creamy tone and hitting all the high notes.
Nhor really put his heart into the performance and delivered a lot of emotional depth in those famous melodies. The Music Man readers will definitely want to tune in to the big moment at 3:27 when Nhor takes on that iconic, sky-high key change that closes out “My Heart Will Go On.” He absolutely crushes it, and it’s a guaranteed goosebumps moment. The reaction from his boys cheering him on throughout the performance adds a warm and feel-good vibe that makes the moment extra special.
Nhor uploaded his “My Heart Will Go On” karaoke cover on December 3, 2022, and it helped kick off his success as a YouTuber. He’s since scored several popular videos on the platform. Viewers were mighty impressed with Nhor’s vocals, and added comments such as “The moment he sang the key change where the song peaked was ridiculously impressive. He even picked up a phone and kept the key and consistency” and “I love how the homies pull up to support him. This is so wholesome. Also that vocal range is amazing!”
Nhor’s a real expert at singing diva vocals. Another popular video from his channel finds the Filipino talent singing Lady Gaga’s “Always Remember Us This Way.” Nhor again gives the performance an emotive power and hits those big high notes like a seasoned pro. It must be nice being one of Nhor’s mates and getting to hear these professional-level vocal performances every weekend in the living room!
Nhor began uploading his karaoke covers to YouTube in October 2022, and the Filipino talent quickly gained traction on the platform. Nhor uploaded the “Always Remember Us This Way” cover on October 7, 2022, as his second video. The Music Man readers might be interested to hear that his Lady Gaga cover proved to be the start of his success as a YouTube singer, as the video recently hit one million views. Just a few months later in December 2022, Nhor uploaded his “My Heart Will Go On” cover, which has been his biggest success to date.
