Li Yu Chun nails this incredible version of Whitney Houston's classic song, 'I Will Always Love You.' It happened on Taiwan's version of 'American Idol,' Super Star Avenue.
hsdell - funny - if that's lip-sync i must have totally forgotten Whitney's accent when pronouncing "only" and "this" and a bunch of other words like an Asian. If anything your comment proves just how amazing this boy is. randy sanders - from the beginning the songs credits acknowledge Dolly Parton. The screen image of Whitney is only there because the boy's rendition is of hers, not Dolly's.
Your comment makes no sense: "...proves just how amazing this boy is."
He is lip-syncing! It could be anybody singing that, but a Taiwanese boy singing a Whitney Houston hit makes a much better news story and viral advertising.
It's entirely probable that he's lip-syncing, as many performers do when emoting to their own or others' songs on stage. The soundtrack isn't Whitney (or Dolly) though, and sure sounds like a strong-lunged male singer at times... I bet it's truly him singing, and that he is Taiwan's latest castrato. Go Li Yun Chun!
hsdell sorry I was so vague, let me restate - you are suspicious he is lip-syncing because you are so sure a Taiwanese boy could not do such a good job. Since he is not lip-syncing he IS doing a good job. I.E. Your comment proves how amazing he really is. Basic logic - 1. STATEMENT - A cannot be B because B is really good. 2. FACT - A IS B. 3. CONCLUSION - A has to be really good.

Actually, when you know what to look for, you can definitely hear his accent and there are also tale-tell signs of his actual singing.
Here's a clip of him again, singing Amazing Grace in the previous episode:
