Luis Fonsi and DJ Cassidy’s song Despacito is still as popular four years later. The hit track recently made waves again when it was dethroned by Baby Shark as ‘the most viewed video ever on YouTube’.
Recently a viral Pakistani teen’s cover of Despacito resurfaced. The reason the video went viral in the first place wasn’t the young man’s melodious voice but rather how he recalled the lyrics to the song.

Does he gets points for trying? He mumbled his rendition of the hit single along with the tune of Despacito with full confidence.
The user that posted the video captioned it;
“Me in my living room jamming like I know the words to #despacito #InaugurationDay,”
Twitter sure appreciates his confidence.
