Charice – “Pyramid” feat. Iyaz

If you haven’t heard about Charice, chances are you will in the next few months.  This pint-sized singer from the Philipines made a name for herself through YouTube (so common these days!) and made a particularly huge impact when she performed “Note To God” on Oprah in 2009.  That YouTube clip has over 2 million hits.  Check it out:
