CEBU CITY, Philippines— A Cebuano singer is now getting a lot of attention on a video-sharing networking site after his girlfriend uploaded a video of him doing a cover of ‘Love Someone’ by Lukas Graham.
Francis Greg Dagatan, a native from Cogon Cruz, Danao City, is still overwhelmed with the attention that he is getting after his girlfriend, Chantel Murdoch, uploaded a video of him singing during one of his gigs in Cebu City in 2019.
“I honestly didn’t know that my video was uploaded. It was uploaded by my girlfriend on her TikTok account. I was surprised and happy at the same time when I knew that a lot of people appreciated my talent,” said the 26-year-old Dagatan.
Since its uploading on Tuesday, May 26, 2020, the video has already been viewed 240,000 times and garnered 31,200 likes as of Wednesday afternoon, May 27.
“My girlfriend just randomly uploaded the video as throwback before the coronavirus, she didn’t expect for it to go viral as well,” he added.
