Singing My Heart Out: Covering "Through the Years"

This weekend, I had the pleasure of watching "Rewind," a deeply moving film starring Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes. Their performances were nothing short of spectacular, bringing the characters' emotional journeys to life in a way that left me captivated and profoundly touched. As the credits rolled, I found myself reflecting on the powerful themes of love and loss portrayed in the movie, which resonated deeply with my own experiences.
Inspired by the raw emotion of the film, I decided to channel my feelings into a creative outlet. I picked up my recording equipment and recorded a cover of Ben&Ben's "Sa Susunod na Habangbuhay," the hauntingly beautiful song featured in the movie's soundtrack. The song's poignant lyrics and melody perfectly captured the essence of the film, allowing me to express the swirling emotions I felt. Singing it was both cathartic and uplifting, providing a sense of closure and connection to the film's narrative.
This experience reminded me of the power of music and cinema to evoke deep emotions and inspire creative expression. Watching "Rewind" and recording the cover song was more than just a pastime; it was a journey of self-discovery and emotional release. It reaffirmed my love for both the art of filmmaking and the joy of singing, encouraging me to embrace and share my passions with others.

As I stepped onto the stage, surrounded by the warm glow of string lights and the random people passing by in tan open door set up of the said bar, I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement and anticipation. The atmosphere was electric, with a friend - Joy Abarico , Bar's customers. , and music enthusiasts alike gathered to unwind and soak in the beauty of live music in front of the Greenfield Park.
With each note of the keyboard and every lyric sung, I poured my heart and soul into the performance, channeling the raw emotion and captivating storytelling of "Piano in the Dark." The song's poignant lyrics and haunting melody seemed to resonate deeply with the audience, drawing them into the narrative of love and longing painted by Brenda Russell's timeless masterpiece.
As the music swirled around us, I could feel a sense of connection and unity pervading the air, transcending barriers and bringing strangers together through the universal language of music. It was a moment of pure magic, where time seemed to stand still, and the world faded away, leaving only the melody and the shared experience of musical bliss.
The audience's response (some were drunk) was nothing short of heartwarming, with cheers, applause, and even a few swaying to the rhythm of the music. Their energy fueled my performance, inspiring me to pour even more passion and soul into each verse and chorus, creating a symbiotic exchange of emotions between artist(wannabe) and audience.
As the final notes of "Piano in the Dark" echoed into the night, I couldn't help but feel a profound sense of gratitude and fulfillment wash over me. It was a night to remember, filled with laughter, music, and the shared joy of experiencing live performance in its purest form.
So, if you ever find yourself in Mandaluyong City craving a dose of live music and good vibes, be sure to stop by Chillax Greenfield for an unforgettable night of musical enchantment. Who knows, you might just catch me there, serenading the crowd with another soul-stirring performance under the stars. Until then, keep chasing the music and savoring the moments that make life truly extraordinary.
And now, without further ado, I invite you to relive the magic of that night with me. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the video of my performance of "Piano in the Dark" at Chillax Greenfield.

Bringing Back The College Day Memoirs + Meet Me Halfway Cover Song.

College life is not easy in comparison to High School life. Aside from the numerous projects and expenses, there are also personal problems which may arise unexpectedly and simultaneously. There are moments that we’re about to give up.
Personally, my college days were not that easy but good thing I was able to handle it gracefully. Perhaps, it’s because I have this strong passion and impetuous of reaching my dreams- to finish my degree. It was undeniably tough “YES, IT WAS!” But despite of those stressful experiences and mind-breaking challenges, I never ever forget how to have fun since personally I really love fun activities. Since I don’t have enough money during that time to support (dreamed) expensive fun – e.g. going to malls, travel, bar. Then, I spent most of my spare time with my classmates singing at some Karaoke establishments around the University’s vicinity – University of Rizal System, Binangonan Campus.
In fact, right after our lunch, one of my classmates recorded this video while I was singing my favourite song – Meet Me Halfway. I recovered this video in my old Youtube Channel (which I already deleted because I have my new one), then downloaded, and edited to become more visually pleasant.
Watch the video below.
Good thing, I was able to save a copy of this video for the reason that by watching this – I am able to remember my college days and how it was challenging. I am able to look back where I came from – “My Humble Beginning when I was a dreamer”. With those entire fracas – I’m very thankful because without those, I maybe weak these days.
Thank you so much for watching and see you in my next blog.

💖 My Cover Song 💙 - 💜 Walking In The Rain by A1 💛
The members of the boy band are Ben Adams, Christian Ingebrigtsen, and Mark Read.
Up until now, I can still sing their song w/o lyrics in front of me. Indeed, after 18 years, karaoke apps in android are now available; so we can easily sing their romantic songs, record it and upload in various social media.
Meanwhile, let me share my cover songs of “Walking in the Rain”. It is one of the songs of the debut album “Here We Come”-released on December 1999.
Pop Group 5thGen's Tuloy Parin Influences Me To Do My Own Cover.
What’s goin’ on you guys?
It’s been a long time that I got crazy towards a music since I am very keen on choosing songs to listen. Recently, I am stumbled upon in this video of a newly rising singing group named – 5th Gen. I discovered their video on my facebook feed and I did watch with my headset. The moment that the music started to play , It seemed that I was hypnotized and unconsciously I was dancing on its beat.
5thGen is a pop group headed by Ralph Salazar (I knew you are familiar with him) with members : Reymond Sajor (who is also known for his stint on Philippine Idol in 2006), RJ Buenagua, Marielle Corpuz and Lady Diana – all of them came from World Championships of the Performing Arts (WCOPA) - medalists and winners. No wonder, this group captures my attention and I’m starting to love them. I extremely admire on how they manage to blend their voices despite of each distinctiveness. Nakaka-inlove pakinggan.
Watch the video below, courtesy of WISH 107.5 .
Their rendition of “Tuloy Parin” by Neo Colours is perfection. The version is very timely since it is RNB in which new generation can relate. Ralph Salazar sang the first stanza and the execution of “kulot” or simply voice gymnastic is very clean. Indeed, Reymond Sajor and RJ Buenagua both good looking guys are also talented. Their voices are angelic and penetrating my soul ( I ‘m serious). Not only those, they also have Marielle Corpuz and Lady Diana who can easily play and shift their power voice into falsetto with smooth transition. They sang as a group and they didn’t overpower their group mates.
Watch the video below as Eddien and I will do a reaction VLOG.
5fth Gen really inspired me a lot and they made me feel in love. In fact, their video in WISH107.5 Youtube Channel motivates me to do my own version. On the same day, right after I watched their video, I quickly grabbed the microphone , opened my camera, and searched for “Tuloy parin” karaoke; unfortunately, RNB version is not yet available online .There are acoustic version but, I chose the original one by NEO Colours.
Watch the video as I attempt to ruin this timeless song, LOL!
Sing Karaoke By Smule - My Studio and My Account.
Smule is an American mobile app developer headquartered in San Francisco. The company specializes in developing social music-making applications for iOS, Android, and Amazon.com Kindle Fire.
The company was founded in 2008 by Jeff Smith and Stanford assistant professor Ge Wang. Wang commented that the goal of the apps was to draw users in and "by the time they realize they're making music, 'it's too late — they're already having fun.'" In December 2011, Smule acquired fellow music app developer Khush. On July 31, 2013, Wang stepped down from his role at Smule to return to Stanford full time.
Sing Karaoke is one of their product lines. It was launched August 8, 2012 and became the most downloadable application in Play Store among Filipinos, due to the fact Filipinos are music lover by nature and Karaoke is part of the culture.
Indeed, I installed the said karaoke in my Android phone one week from now. I started to record songs however if you are just signing up for free – only limited songs are available and some features are disabled. I signed up their VIP package for only PHP45 per month and PHP450 for one year – not bad. And , walahhhhhhh! I got the VIP features – unlimited song choice, voice editor features, duet so famous singers and members and etc.
Truly, this social –karaoke is one of my favourite applications that I did use daily. It is somewhat a recreational for me – karaoke singing.
Here are my few songs in my SMULE ACCOUNT.
- One Call Away By Charlie Puth and Jonathan Orbuda.
- 2. A Whole New World.
