By Dianara Alegre

Filipino singer Marcelito Pomoy's performance of "The Prayer," singing both male and female parts, got a standing ovation from America's Got Talent judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Alesha Dixon, and Howie Mandel.

Marcelito began singing the song with his falsetto voice that shocked the judges.

The American judges were more amazed when the Filipino singer later used his baritone voice in alternation with the former.

Stunned after the performance, Howie exclaimed: “Oh my God! That was so unique! You are a beautiful, wonderful singer with a young woman trapped inside of you.”

Also dazed, Alesha said: “I want to see something different, something unique and Marcelito you just gave it to us. It was absolutely brilliant!”

Heidi also lauded Marcelito: “Honestly this is one of the craziest things I've ever heard in my entire life. Your voice, your range, your sound is just so out of this world!”

“That was what I call a 10, as simple as that,” Simon said of the stunning performance.

Marcelito has advanced to the semifinal round of "America's Got Talent: The Champions" after “superfans” voted for him.

"Superfans" is the new element in the show. They are fans from each of the 50 states of the USA.

Congratulations, Marcelito!
