YouTube Web Sensation Greyson Michael Chance's "Paparazzi"

Greyson Michael Chance's "Paparazzi" just might be the best web sensation yet.It was a school recital performance at Edmond's Sixth Grade Festival. They said at the end of Greyson's stunning piano performance, he could "teach Lady Gaga a lesson."

Greyson Michael Chance bona fide prodigy. He also has original piano compositions of the songs "Stars" and "Broken Hearts. These three videos has already reached

10 Million views on YouTube. "Paparazzi" having the 8 Million views. We all know what happens to people having that many views.That's right! He's been invited to perform on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday (Click here for the ellen video). Ellen tweeted "Never been more excited to have someone on my show. This is a 12-year-old 6th grader. He'll be on Thursdays show."



According to his YouTube Profile, Greyson is "very inspired by Lady Gaga and Augustana." Greyson additionally explains "Lady Gaga is a freak but she has so much talent and her style of music is what I would like mine to be when I'm older. Augustana is one of the most underrated bands I think ever to step [on] the planet. They have so much talent it is not funny. They have such a good concept with folk and rock. It is very sad that they are so unknown."

Although some may compare Greyson Michael Chance to Justin Bieber, there musical taste is very different. You can tell by listening to his original song "Stars". Which is about a woman who dies of cancer and meets her husband in heaven. Greyson Michael Chance does sound better than Justin Bieber and I think even more talented. Then again, that's just me.
