Filipino Fridays  

It's okay; I was able to watch it though!

I miss the chat replays but you guys always do the best you can, we know that!

❤

Pls do Lani Misalucha, Martin Nievera on your next friday reaction

Oh! I’m late! 😩

Sooo true, VOCAL TRINITY! I hope Rich and John can discover more of their very impressive performances. So, keep on recommending guys.🥰👍

They're a 'new' trinity. The real Vocal Trinity is Regine, Lani, and Jaya.

Ms Austin said that the Philippines has the most musically educated people in the world. Haha!

You two complete each other and Cesar must be trusted but ...you know?

Debatable at best. OPM is heavily based on modern Western music, which in turn is rooted in Black American music (blues, Black gospel, jazz). Hip-hop also originated in Black America. Nobody sings the American classics (and most Western hits) as tastefully and soulfully as Black American singers.

Nevermind what they said... And maybe.She said that coz they are not on Hollywood or Really out there...on Top of song billboards ...so she has a point... So that's oky😊 they're Popular here in the Philippines though ❤❤❤

but you know it's all about the culture and generations and whether the 'origins' keep practicing to keep their art alive. gotta admit that somehow the level of singing in america is in the decline. not in the music industry but just in the population in general. people dont sing as much as they did a couple decades ago. even what rap has evolved into or what i should say 'devolve'. but in the philippines, they sing anywhere, everywhere. they have karaokes at home, and it's just part of their hobbes they do sober, or while they're drinking at parties. and from the young up to the seniors all participating together with the family. Now quantify that, there's a karaoke in every family. i dont know the numbers, but if there's a really good singer for every 50 familes, and then you figure out how many families there are...... Sure you could say are copying, but then by using stats, you could still determine how many good singers there are that don't copy. I found out about the filipinos singers during the lockdowns. and it's crazy.... so "best singers in the world" it's debatable sure, subjective sure, but using statistics here just pretty much opened my eyes on how crazy it is over there.. it's mind blown

She's improved her classical singing even more in the last year.

True

Yes, Klarisse is up there too.

WCOPA She's the over-all champion,she won 7 gold medals

Check out Jona's performance of I'll Never Love Again (similar title but from Lady Gaga's A Star is Born.) The video from September 2019 - The Aces. There are two similar looking videos from the same event, one is on Jona's channel but that's an audience recording, but there is a better quality venue production if you scroll down a little, usually--it's the thumbnail photo that has three pinkish cubes in a triangular pattern in the bottom right corner, uploaded by evelyn de leon. For a while I thought they were the same performance but they're actually different performances from the same event. I think she does the best version of the song, including Lady Gaga's own version.

"Johnny" or "Sammy" Davis, Jr ?

remembering how the three of them used to sing together every weekend!

Her performance with the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra is a better choice.

Indeed more of Jona

I surrender by katrina velarde

San yan galing? Hahaha aliw yung mga title amp 😂 patawa

I agree with this.

@@JomarRebucasOfficial agree too

Praise her.

yassss

Up!

Yess

Lani Misalucha-singers’ singer. Lani on Wish. Definitely. Lani=technique.

@loypineda5331 Thank you.

Agree!

up to this

And effervescent.

Uppppp

Marcelito Pomoy's cover of Time To Say Goodbye in the Americas Got Talent Champions Edition is a banger.

Next time, if would be circling back to Reo Brothers, try their cover of Sultans of Swing. They also have other medleys of Beatles Songs.

Another addition, in the likes of Gary V, Regine, Jaya, and Lani would also be Martin Nievera. He has a couple of Wishbus performances too.

Yes! Jona ❤

right

Jona is INCOMPARABLE. second to none

Lani Misalucha

+1 for JONA with Klarisse: 'Tell Him'
