This creator normally gets 4.0M views. This one got 4.2M. That gap — not the raw number — is what makes the format worth copying.
A man with a filter that makes him appear bald and with a smaller head sings 'Happy Birthday' in a high-pitched, comical voice, mimicking a child's singing.

Why it worked
The video works due to the unexpected and humorous application of a filter that alters the creator's appearance and voice. The contrast between the familiar 'Happy Birthday' song and the distorted, childlike rendition creates a strong comedic effect, making it highly shareable and rewatchable. The use of a trending filter also boosts discoverability.
