Viral Vid: Toddler Becomes Star of the Show After Launching Impromptu Duet With Street Performer

(Photo: YouTube via Yahoo)
Street music is often considered an art form of its own. Its performers work in all climates and conditions, for audiences that may not necessarily care to hear them. One toddler, though, recently became so fascinated by the music that it began singing along. Not long after, it was unclear who the crowd was cheering for– the singer or the young child.
Though the video begins with the baby’s shrill tones competing with those of the street performer, the amateur musician catches on remarkably quickly, and seems to be trying to initiate a duet. As the street performer gracefully bows out, the baby continues without a care, reveling in the applause.
Yahoo News has more on the story:
It’s a mystery how this adorable child bundled up in a stroller ended up joining a street performer in a duet. But the toddler can belt out a tune and, thanks to the video filmed by Kamil Litwinowicz, is now catching the attention of the Web.
Someone, probably dad, is seen at the beginning of the clip positioning the stroller next to the singer, who is performing on the main square in Krakow, Poland. He then walks off camera to enjoy the show, which quickly becomes a duet—and a Web hit.
Even though the tyke doesn’t know the words to the operatic melody—they come out as basically “goo goo ga ga”—the kid is in tune and even overshadows the professional.
The video of the child’s musical stylings, posted on Dec. 2, have hit a high note, with more than 620,000 views on YouTube.
And here’s the video:

And reply to the poster that you know it is a pyramid type scheme and that no one on this site is stupid enough to believe there is an unskilled, easy job making that kind of money — at least not one any troll would have to advertise.
The only person making a little money is the poster who gets paid by the posting.

Posted on December 10, 2012 at 5:27amConvert the video to black & white, add scratches and it would look like a scene out of a Charlie Chaplin movie. Very touching as it is.

Posted on December 9, 2012 at 11:08pmNot everybody has a “good job” like you. Some people don’t have any job and will try anything to put food on the table. My hat’s off to him for trying.
Maybe he could have Kupo’s job.

Posted on December 9, 2012 at 9:06pmYou have to be kidding. What is the matter with you ? Have you become so jaded that you can’t even enjoy something as delightful as this little one singer her heart out ?

Posted on December 10, 2012 at 7:27amMy bet is they have walked past that street performer before, and the child immitated him, so this time they decided to get it on video.

Posted on December 10, 2012 at 12:23pmIt’s not a spontaneous moment. It’s from a candid camera type show that set it up on purpose. That’s why the video has a laugh track.

Posted on December 9, 2012 at 7:57pmThe piece is Panis Angelicus by Cesar Franck. Sounds like the child is familiar with the piece and may hear it frequently at home. A beautiful piece, and a classic.

Posted on December 9, 2012 at 9:04pmExactly and thank you. My daughters are in our church’s Latin choir and sing this. The Blaze needs to do some research. Ignorance abounds when Latin is posted as “goo goo ga ga”.

Posted on December 10, 2012 at 12:08amSta, Ignorance abounds in The Blaze comments when you think this adorable gibberish resembles the actual Latin text. About two of the sung words resemble the Latin; the rest, as reported, is basically googoogaga.

Posted on December 10, 2012 at 8:06amHe is singing the Latin with a toddler’s voice.
Seriously.
What toddler says goo goo ga anyway? That’s babies.
We are from a parish where 8 to 10 children are the norm. I hear toddlers and preschoolers singing the Latin parts of our mass all the time. Kids pick up languages MUCH easier than adults.

My wife sings and is very good.
Plus the wife and all our daughters are excellent artists.
Actually the singing is nice especially this time of year or when she does not know I’m home.
As for me I can make our dog howl and am lucky if I can legibly sign my name.
No talent on my side of the family (:

Posted on December 9, 2012 at 7:01pmWow SURF.. what a great dog that is.
I know what you mean with the singer-wife.
I used to live with a girlfriend who was a former ballet dancer . She’d listen to headphones & dance wile cleaning the house if she thought i wasn’t there. I could appreciate a few moments occaisonally before she would realize i was home sometimes…
