The immigrant fisherman went onto the AGT stage anxious and unsure, his hands trembling and his past etched over his face. His English was shaky, and every step seemed weighted with doubt. But then he started singing “I Will Always Love You.”

The initial note wobbled, but it soon became forceful, full of emotion and struggle. The audience became silent. Then came the strength in his voice—real, honest, and heartfelt. When he finished, the entire room erupted in cheers. At that moment, he wasn’t just a fisherman. He was a star.

A video has recently appeared on YouTube, showcasing a fantastic performance by a Filipino vocalist. Roland Abante sang the world-famous tune on America’s Got Talent 2023, which is most known for its rendition by iconic singer Whitney Houston.

The video clip of the Filipino’s performance, which was posted a few hours ago on YouTube, is already a smash there—it has had over a million views on the platform alone, and the performance is also popular on other social networks. Roland Abante introduced himself to the judges by performing Dolly Parton’s 1973 classic “I Will Always Love You.” In 1992, Whitney Houston covered the song in her signature way, and it received a significant boost.
