@@throga Thank you very much to both of you Sir for your appreciation and giving her a chance to show her talents and capabilities through your channel. Gary Valenciano was once her Mentor after joining a competition in an afternoon time show. Katrina V. is known as Asia's Vocal Supreme. She is one of a kind! A multi-talented yet so humble and an inspiration to other Artists. She loves to support her fellow Artists and really enjoying her craft that is why she had tons of collaborations. As for Ms. Katrina that's one of the reasons she was adored by many.
@@throga Pls do check her other original video "Mahal Pa Kta" (means "I still loves you"). Also, her "Saving All My Love" (Whitney Houston) Live at Viva Cafe in her official account, pls.
@@throga if you don't mind, you may check her one take cover sessions "I Wanna Know What Love Is", this show case another next level of her talent. Also, her collab w/ Bugoy Drilon "Angel's Cry" (cover from Mariah and Neo). They made it an RNB/Jazz kind of thing.
Katrina's success story is an inspiring inr because she started from scratch and she had a hard life. she supported her own education when she had thr capability but had to stop because she couldn't study and do music at the same. time. she chose music because that helped her earn money which they needed. she would scour the entire country for AMATEUR singing contests and that's the reason she can't continue school due to constant traveling. i guess pursuing her passion paid off.
I RECOMMEND: 1. Saving All My Love for You 2. Muli - w/ Daryl Ong 3. Angels Cry - w/ Bugoy Drilon 4. Greatest Love of All 5. Air Supply Medly Live Solo 6. Balang Araw w/ BuDaKhel 7. Thank God I Found You w/ BuDaKhel 8. Whenever I Call Solo 9. Kung Naging Tayong Dalawa Live in Viva Cafe 10. Lason Mong Halik Solo or w/ Jona in ASAP
When she first started performing live at the Music Hall, there was no cover charge. And even before the pandemic it only cost $4 plus food and beverages to hear two hours of live Katrina. And $20 bucks or less, she would do your requests.
It was Katrina who belted the highest note from the beginning of I surrender, but the camera went to focus with Jessica,(who is also so good) while on that high note!
Wow, wow, wow, I'm so thankful you featured Ms. Katrina Velarde - one of the best singers in the Philippines...She deserved more accolades, fame & recognition all over the Philippines & I must say ALL OVER THE WORLD...I always support & listen to her songs/music because she deserves it...More power to you & of course to Katrina V....FROM THE UK, ENGLAND...Thank you.
Just watched your reaction to Katrina Velarde😊 you guyz, just made me appreciate more how talented and gifted are our local artists. Your genuine love and passion for artists with their music is totally captivating to me. Thank you for giving Filipino artists this great opportunity to be heard more around the world. May your tribe increase😀
I totally agree with both your comments. I also think she is one of the most gifted technical vocalist in the world. It’s a shame that the whole world does not know about her. I am greatful for this channel in hopes that her name gets more well known. I also hope that she gets more subscribers like you all said she should have a billion subscribers. I so enjoyed this reaction.
Katrina Velarde is not human she is Vocal Monster Chameleon ❤❤❤ Part 2 please ❤❤❤❤ Thank you so much for supporting one of the MOST UNDER RATED SINGER IN THE PHILIPPINES ❤❤❤
Katrina is the BEST THING EVER 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ My name is John Birmingham and I too have a RU-vid channel for reaction videos of my beautiful Filipino singing ladies like Katrina, Regine Velasquez, Morissette and of course Karen carpenter and Barbra streisand. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 to all of my favorite singers!!!!!! 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Her first live attempt of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” @ the MusicHall Metrowalk on July 4th 2018 was more raw and an anticipated rendition than this in her bedroom since that one @ the MusicHall was as close as Patti’s version, which was crazy extreme. We all know how Patti sings! Kat did a couple of notches higher on her outro in that version, and the length and the ascending notes was unbelievably crazy. I really thought you’ll review that one. Anyhow, you might want to listen and watch to that gig in your private break time. You won’t regret it. That vid doesn’t have any extra clip of a person dancing to the tune. Lol! Thank you for featuring Katrina! 👍🏻🎶🤗💕🇺🇸
I've been following this young lady for several years now all the way from the US. She is amazing! Please watch her One take cover - I wanna know what love is so that you can listen to her whistle register.
I am always a big fan of our Asia's Vocal Supreme Katrina Velarde! Thank you guys for appreciating this amazing artist. We'll definitely be waiting for part 2 of this.❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
She is awesome. Thank you for great reaction which was real tribute to her immense talent. Her life story includes a beautiful romance and a short-lived marriage with the very talented American musician Mike Shapiro, percussionist and producer. He was at the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music. He and Katrina were introduced by Gary Valenciano. Mike was Gary's drummer when he did concerts in the US. Mike often played when artists like Sergio Mendez came to the Philippines for concerts. They had planned to marry then pandemic happened. They finally married in May 2021, but sadly he passed away in Nov 2021.
There is video about Katrina named Katrina Velarde - 41 secs without breathing! There is also video called KATRINA VELARDE "LUNG POWER" / Longest Note Ever Belted .
Among live performers, Katrina Velarde is arguably the best singer in the Philippines. Sound mixers working her concerts have been known to get bored out of their skulls from lack of need to adjust her volume levels. Her microphone technique is S-level owing to her long experience working the amateur singing contests for years starting from 9 years young. There was even a finals performance about a decade ago where she continued singing while being electrocuted by the microphone's 48V, in the rain! Did not even miss a beat and went on afterwards to warn the organizer of the problem. Boss level professional.
Teh gamit pa ng account just to discredit the undeniable talent that she had....the repertoir of songs that was played here were already magnificent not to mention how she delivered it incredibly great..here u are ranting and following every katrina vids just to show how u dislike her yet you find yourself watching her @@hubertgalindez829
the guy on drums and percussion in the Latin medley video is Mike Shapiro, Katrina's late husband, who was an esteemed producer/musician in the US. the I SURRENDER cover with Jessica was thr very first cover/video she made after Mike's passing and it took a little while for her because she was in the grieving process, maybe that's why she was still wearing black in that video. she became a wife and a widow i. a span of 6 months. 😢
Fun fact: In the Philippines, Katrina is also known as Sulkay(Hair comb) Diva. She acquired the title and became famous when one of her video singing using a hair comb got leaked and therafter she got numerous invitations from local tv shows
Thank youuu soooo muchhh Richard and Johnny for your genuine reactions to Katrina's covers, orignal, medleys, impersonations and all. The long long wait is over and finally, you have digged and discovered another precious and exquisite gem in the Philippines who is labeled as "Suklay Diva." Please do react to Part 2 and more of Kat. God bless you Richard & Johnny. ❤️🙏😍👏
I so love this reaction video that I shared this reaction video with my brother and sisterinlaw who are friends with Katrina Velarde and asked them to share this with her. I'm sure she will be excited to know your comments. Thank you Richard and Johnny for being my number 1 reactors. ❤️🥰😍
Please have them contact Richard and Johnny and Katrina to have them do a live interview. I believe it will make them all more known in the Philippines and the USA💯🇺🇸
I love this!! She is absolutely my fav!! Would love to see your reaction to Somewhere over the rainbow Metro Walk as well as her singing Natural Woman in the car with her friends. I love that whenever she sing with others she is ok with others show casing their talent. I think that’s what makes her special and amazing. Thanks again! Sending Aloha from Hawaii!!
Katrina velarde is so humble to collab any singers ❤ katrina velarde is a vocal beast ! Can do any voice , can do acrobatics ! Katrina.velarde is everuthing !!!!!!? Shes not human for me , shes not breathing all the time ahhahaha😂😂😂
Ive always listened to dear Katrina I’m a real fan but didn’t reserve tickets ahead of time for her concert…But somehow you make me appreciate her more.
If there's an olympics for singing, the philippines will lead the medal table. We can have multiple gold medalists in regine velasquez, lea salonga, morisette, katrina, kyla, elaine, gigi, etc! Hehehe. Mabuhay Pilipinas!!!
Love your reactions and appreciation for Katrina and others. I suggest her recent live concert version of Saving All My Love . I don’t think these non televised personal concert videos are problematic with copyright, especially on her own channel.
Thankyou for time reacting to our Dear Katrina. We hipe for the Part2 , and hopefully you can choose her solo performance. She deserve to be recognize internationally. It was a great feeling for us a fans because you will able to see what greatness and talent she has when it comes to singing...Hope you can see her personally in a live performance. More Power. Until next time..salamat ❤
So Katrina is the T-1000 of vocal gymnasts. "I'm crying again, not because the song is emotional, but because I'm being flooded with vocal acrobatics" 🤣 This reaction marathon was so worth it. Please react to her cover of "I wanna know what love is" from her 'One take cover sessions'. Wo'nt disappoint. Greatings from South Africa 👊👏
fyi: Katrina had some kind of stroke or face paralysis when she got pregnant and she said in an interview she hasn't recovered to 100% despite understanding therapy so for those who know, the asymmetry in her face is noticeable especially in videos a few years back. i. don't know for. some but i can see it in this video.
OMG! I'm late to this partee... Katrina Velarde the best of the best in her era. no way we can find another top tier level like her. The riffs, range and the voice quality is on point. Hard to follow her act. Her tone is multi combi of influences from different Artist combined.
Her Originals: (also w/ BuDaKhel) 1. Lason Mong Halik ⭐ 2. Taksil ⭐ 3. Tama na 4. Kung Naging Tayong Dalawa ⭐ 5. Ikaw Pa Rin ⭐ 6. Mahal Pa Kita ⭐ 7. Isang Himala ⭐ 8. Sa Panaginip 9. Ako Ba o Siya? 10. Ika'y Nag-iisa 11. Magkaibang Mundo ⭐ 12. Balang Araw - w/ BuDaKhel ⭐ ⭐ - Her top songs imo I recommend the latest and live versions.
I totally agree with you, Katrina is the best technically skilled singer in the world. Unfortunately, she is not given the opportunity in the international market as other singers are.
Katrina expresses each time she sings joy. I read she was so ill she couldn't perform for 3 years and may be the reason she sings now at every opportunity.
thank you for featuring Katrina. She is amazing! can you please insert this somewhere...MPO Opus 20: Lani Misalucha performs a Queen medley with The MPO (Manila Philharmonic Orchestra)
