A very touching video. I am going to send the link to my mom and make a small bet that she can't watch it without crying. I am a relatively stoic man, and I could barely watch the entire video I was so touched.

Aww, that's sweet :)
To introduce some vinegar, I like how the Simon Cowell clone raises his head in surprise the moment this fellow starts singing, right after smirking just before(~2:50). I distinctly remember the thing being done before with Susan Boyle, as too with that opera singer guy who came before her. I wonder if it was covered during the auditions to replace Cowell?
