It’s so true…the many talents in PHIL are mind boggling. I’ve visited only twice, but I can say it’s one of the most amazing places with the most amazing people on the planet. If every country were like PHIL, our world would be a utopia, full of peace and love.
It looks like this was taken during a swimming outing. Resorts usually have karaokes that visitors can use for free. But you see a lot of people here in the Philippines singing like this. Here's the thing when you get used to something you tend to take it for granted. You need to be an extremely great singer with the IT factor and a good company to back you up to succeed here.
No doubt, Filipinos love singing period! Majority of Filipinos have the passion to sing via in Karaoke 🎤 or even by acapella. In short, We love to sing wherever we are on the planet.
I’m from Manila. There are so many good singers here. You go to the slum areas, the past time there is Karaoke singing. I had a friend whose business is the coin slot karaoke machine which he would install in public areas like open places where people can come together and drink or in slums areas where they could not afford to invest in karaoke with good sound systems. He made tons of money with them. Early on in the Philippines, there were very few places of amusements. We have very limited places like public libraries. So the most available recreation would be movies or singing. we learn to sing a lot in elementary school. We have to respect our flag by singing the National Anthem first thing in the morning. We also sing a lot in Church. everyone sings well at Mass. We have very good Filipino worship songs for Sunday Mass. During birthdays, weddings and graduations, we all have to sing. When people work alone, it is normal to have a radio on and you can hear people singing while doing the laundry, mopping the floor, or photocopying documents. Even secretaries while doing manual and non-intellectual work would sing with the radio or what we call LSS or Last Song Syndrome (the last song that got stuck in the memory). Moreover, since having a Karaoke in a party rather than hire a professional host and performers saves you a lot of money, so do people prefer to invest in karaoke machine with a loud sound system during parties or just attract the entire neighborhood to come to your outdoor restaurant during weekend and show off their singing talent. I often spend time in barrios and during weekends you can hear so many karaokes in different nearby places playing with singers lined up to take their turn to sing. So, that is how we live in the Philippines. It is not unusual for us to have many good singers in a local community. That explains why there it is not uncommon to have so many great singers here.
I married a Filipina and spent some time there. Yeah, this is an average day there. Ive even seen waitresses at a restaurant in a mall gather in the courtyard outside the restaurant to sing a capella to draw in customers. And yes, my wife and I went in.
Yes just another normal day in the Philippines! Justin, chk out Gigi De Lana sang NE VER E NOUGH on Ynoh Garcia channel. This was part of a concert called Wish Date, stunning performance on a big stage.
Hi Sir Justine, I'm really amazedf of your nice reactions to this Filipino guy singing 🤗 it's just normal here in the Phils. to use Karaoke 🙏 Thank you Sir for your big appreciations to our Kababayan singers, from our country Phils 👍🖐️😘
Thanks for reacting to Filipino casual and professional singers! I wish you will have a collaboration with Filipino singers and have a concert in our country (maybe one of pop groups, like SB19 or solo artist, hopefully.)
The reason why their are so many of us likes to sing in our country because of the music’s melody. It gets through our heart and soul lol. We just sing if we love the music. I wish also we could create our own music.
Yes .. there are more talented singers yet to be discovered in the Philippines .. But thanks to social media like Utube makes this possible for them to be exposed around the world.. We appreciate your compliments and appreciation for us, Sir…👍
In the Philippines, you have to be the best to win a contest in order to land a recording contract. Singing good is just an ordinary thing and many people, if not most, can sing.
Here the thing, we grade our singers here in Ph using the unit "kalibre" (caliber)... then from 100 - 200. The first singer is between kalibre 140 - 160 (siento kwarenta - seinto sisenta). It's pretty difficult to get the level of kalibre 180 - 200 (which is the bestest).
Man, if I had the money I would go to every corner of the world and bring these people to the main stages to show their talent to the world. I hope you at least share this with people with the possibility to do that.
They are SO good it's crazy!! You HAVE to watch Corvyx's version of this!!! please please check it out, it will blow your mind! anything by him will, I can't believe you haven't reacted to him yet! You of all people will appreciate his vocals.
You're so right... that's just another day in the Philippines. As far as him singing when he was still very young, please don't get mad at me but if I base my opinion on his appearance, I will say his parents won't waste their money on a Karaoke machine. Yes, maybe he still sings while taking a bath, but I doubt that he started at a very young age to sing that way. Maybe, he is smart enough not to have a bad habit like smoking because it could have a negative effect not only on his health but also his breathing which is important to singing, and that my friend may be that's the reason why he can hit some really high notes without a glitch. When are you going to make it to the Philippines? I have been following you for a while now, and you still haven't made it there, hahaha! So I swear if I win the lottery, I will pay for everything and take you to the Philippines hahaha!
See how his homies act like there's nothing special going on? That's because good singers like this guy is so common. if this happened here in America, everyone will stop, watch, and applaud in awe because singing in his caliber is not so common here, so he will be special.
Natural to pilipino to know how to sing and to be honest theres a saying that no karaoke no occasion everybody love to sing its tradiotinal to us that every occasion what ever it will be we bond by singging
