I was able to watch his performance at one of the upscale malls here in the Philippines, his presence alone is goosebumps inducing, and when he started his set, the crowd just went crazy, it was so 🔥 that night.
Hi, Richard. So this is the first time you've heard Felip sing Moving Closer? He released his cover of this song (which was first recorded in 2012 by the band Never the Strangers, as the theme song for a Close-Up toothpaste advertising campaign) late last year. There's an official lyric video, as well as a Wish Bus performance (do check the official 107.5 version, as well as a VERY NICE fan-cam of it, so you can compare again). Finally, Felip also sang Moving Closer as part of the 3-song-set he performed for Billboard Philippines. You should check all of these out -- Felip sounds amazing!
he has tons of live sessions uploaded in yt from intimate live videos like this to live performances in gigs tied to his label. he is working with a different label as a solo artist(warner music) while sb19 is with Sony. you can check his WePlay live videos i find those very cool and he looks very confident and immersed in his music, enjoying it with the fans 🫶
This song was used by a toothpaste commercial last 2012. So the song is already old but it soothes Felip’s voice so much. I think it was a band who was the original singers of this song.
Ken sang this cover song as Warner celebrated its 30th anniversary last year. This song under Warner Music was a hit in 2012 for a toothpaste ad but afterwards was kind of forgotten....and Warner assigned this song to him during their anniv & its been back in the radio & streaming platforms with his version
I believe felip/ken is the most versatile filipino singer..having ablento sing almost all types of genre. his songs reveals his thoughts and sentiments..that make him mystetious and challenging to discover..
Try the new one he dropped with his band, Kanako Superior Session. It was such a lovely song. It always make me almost cry with how soulful he sang that song. So beautiful.
