When it was already released, people always talked about it. Back in the day, this performance truly captured the attention of the entire town.

Regardless of the platform it is shared on, the performance continues to receive praise from viewers worldwide.
One YouTube viewer wrote, “I’ve watched this so many times. He was new to singing to a big audience. His delivery is so authentic and he is so beautiful. He opens his eyes slightly a few times which touches me deeply as he learned to never open them as that exposed his blindness but up to the age of 12 he could see.”
A Facebook user shared, “First time I heard him.. was flipping through TV and heard this voice.. which wowed me. And still does!”
