Juvie Pelos, The Voice of the Philippines

I was really blown away by this young lady's performance. Well, it wasn't just her performance, it's her intelligence and maturity, her patriotism that all showed clearly in just one song. I was having goosebumps the whole time that she was performing. She chose Uwahig, Bisayan word for "water", not just to attract the judges' attention, but most importantly to promote Filipino music.

What has gotten popular nowadays are the music of Lady Gaga, Mariah and the like. True. Why not sing one of our own folk songs, after all this is The Voice of the Philippines? I really do hope this brilliant young lady bags the title because she really, truly deserves it. We are not just talking about pure singing talent. We are talking about the soul behind this talent. and Surely Juvy Pelos has it, and more. I am now officially a Juvy Pelos fan.
