00:24.1
And you know what ngayon? Di na ako nahihiya. Ikaw nahihiya ka pa?
00:27.9
Oo, kasi kailangan eh.
00:29.2
At sya po, nakita mo yung result?
00:30.5
Oo, yeah. Alam mo na pinaghirapan mo yung show na yun.
00:33.9
Pero mas nakakagulat yung hindi ko kilala na nagbigay ng supporta,
00:40.1
na naggumastos ng pera para bumoto sa akin,
00:43.6
bumili ng sobrang daming SIM card to vote for me.
00:47.1
Hindi ko alam paano nangyari.
00:48.6
Because when I went out the stage, kasi may narinig ako nagpo-perform si Clarice.
00:52.8
Ang galing-galing ni Clarice.
00:53.9
Sabi ko, bad. Hindi ko kaya.
00:55.3
Hindi na yata. Ito na yata yung last night ko.
00:57.9

01:17.7
Ms. Janice Javier.
01:25.1
Mag-mu-ease muli yung applause namin pagating sa air.
01:31.1
Pang-Staple Center.
01:35.8
Thanks for being here finally.
01:37.5
Oh, thank you for having me.
01:38.9
Speaking of finally, The Voice, Season 1.
01:43.2
The finals, ayan na.
01:46.7
Yeah, it felt so surreal na I lasted until the finals.
01:52.4
Because it was a tough competition.
01:55.2
You know, and my voice is not very strong.
01:59.2
Kasi nga, I've been working, like, for my entire life, I've been singing.
02:04.0
So when I joined the competition, I wasn't expecting na maglalasta ko hanggang grand finals.
02:11.7
And yun na, I owe it all to the people na nag-support sa akin.
02:16.4
And of course to my coach.
02:19.0
Who is Apple the App.
02:21.2
Shout out to coach.
02:23.1
Now let's go back from the beginning.
02:25.1
By the way, if you're tuning in and you haven't Googled Janice Javier,
02:29.2
at hindi niyo binasa yung description,
02:32.0
isa po siya sa finalist.
02:33.7
You ended up being what?
02:36.7
Second place sa first season ng The Voice Philippines.
02:42.9
Kasi we, like, Kuya Mito is the champion,
02:46.2
and then first runner-up is Clarice,
02:47.8
and then second ako, and then Mike.
02:52.8
So, tignan niyo yung mga YouTube videos,
02:55.6
kung hindi niyo pa nare-research.
02:56.8
Ngayon, aalamin natin kung ano ang tumatakot.
02:59.2
Tapos sa utak niya ng mga panahon na yun.
03:01.7
What made you join The Voice?
03:05.5
Actually, I didn't plan to join the competition
03:08.7
kasi I don't like competing on TV.
03:11.7
Kasi I've always had the insecurities of me being big,
03:15.2
na sinasabi ko na, oh, baka people wouldn't like me,
03:18.0
especially in the Philippines.
03:19.1
You know, they're very particular with how you look like.
03:21.6
Pintasero mga tao.
03:22.6
Oo, medyo, ano sila, harsh sila
03:24.6
pag medyo majujubis ka.
03:29.2
so, niyaya ako nung friend ko
03:30.8
who is Jacqueline, Jackie Ibad-Santos.
03:34.2
I know, maybe you know her.
03:36.4
Sabi niya, ate, may singing competition,
03:39.1
which is The Voice.
03:42.3
Sabi niya, sabi niya,
03:43.8
hindi ate, hindi ka niya nila makikita.
03:46.1
Maririnig ka lang nila.
03:47.2
Sabi ko, oh, sige, game ako dyan.
03:49.2
Kung hindi nila ako makikita, go ako dyan.
03:51.6
No, pala, apat na tao lang pala
03:52.9
hindi makakakita sa iyo.
03:54.8
Kasi sabi ko, kung maririnig lang nila yung boses ko,
03:58.2
maybe I would stand a chance.
04:00.2
Pero siguro kung, like, singing competition na parang malabagong kampiyon,
04:05.1
But, yun nga, sabi ko, sige, I'll give it a try.
04:08.1
Tapos na, I was just in the Philippines for a wedding.
04:11.9
Wedding ng best friend ko na si Ruby.
04:13.8
And, wala akong plans na mag-stay lang.
04:17.3
I had like a month to stay in the Philippines.
04:19.8
You were based here na pala?
04:21.3
I was based in Thailand.
04:23.0
Yeah, at that time.
04:24.8
Tapos, mga a week bago ko bumalik ng Thailand,
04:28.2
nagkaroon ng open audition for siguro mga professional musicians.
04:34.4
And, I was there with Thor.
04:36.6
At that time, naririnig-rinig ko na si Thor.
04:38.8
Pero, hindi ko sila talaga kilala kasi I was based abroad.
04:42.2
Kita ko lang sila sa YouTube.
04:43.4
Nakikita ko yung mga magagaling.
04:45.0
Sabi ko, oh my God, sabi ko, magagaling nitong mga to.
04:47.4
Sabi ko, siguro magaling din ako, kaya andito ako sa audition.
04:50.8
So, yun yung first audition namin.
04:52.8
Tapos, nag, sabi nung may bata kaming kasabay, sabi niya,
04:59.2
Sabi ko, hindi, wala yan.
05:00.2
Anong kaninervyos yan?
05:01.4
Nung ako na, oh grabe, ganun pala talaga nakakatakot kahit na professional musician ko.
05:06.6
Ano yung, nung nag-audition ka, were you in front of their backs already o hindi?
05:11.2
Oh, no. It was the people from ABS-CBN.
05:15.6
Doon pa lang ninervyos ka na?
05:17.2
Doon pa lang, oh.
05:18.0
Kasi parang, parang antagal kong hindi nagko-compete.
05:21.2
Kasi, ano ko, bayahera ako.
05:23.6
You know, I work abroad.
05:26.2
Pero, walang naman ako dyan na judge.
05:28.2
But this time, like, parang may feeling ako na, oh my God, kailangan ko makapasa.
05:32.8
Parang gano'n, I hope they like me.
05:34.4
Tapos, ano naman, sinwerte naman ako na they enjoyed my performance.
05:40.0
Tapos, they asked me, if ever makalusot ka sa first audition, would you come back?
05:44.4
Sabi ko, well, yeah, kung meron naman.
05:46.4
Sabi ko, sige, babalik ako.
05:48.2
At this time, ilan linggo ka na sa Philippines?
05:50.6
Ano na lang ako, parang one week na lang.
05:53.6
Babalik na lang ako ng Thailand.
05:59.6
So, pumasa ka, di ba?
06:01.6
Tapos, bumalik ako ng Thailand.
06:03.6
Tapos, ang tagal ng callback.
06:05.6
Wala akong nababalitaan na ano.
06:07.6
Tapos, at that time, sa Thailand, when you extend your visa, sometimes you go to Cambodia.
06:17.6
To get a new visa sa border.
06:20.6
Tapos, nasa van ako on the way to Cambodia.
06:23.6
My friend texted me.
06:25.2
Sabi niya, Janice, nasaan ka?
06:27.4
Sabi niya, nakapasa ka sa first audition.
06:29.4
You have to come back.
06:30.4
Sabi ko, oh, kailan?
06:34.4
Paano ako babalik?
06:35.4
I'm on the way to Cambodia.
06:37.4
Tapos, babalik pa ako.
06:38.4
Tapos, at that time, wala akong trabaho.
06:42.4
May plano si God, di ba?
06:43.4
Pag-atingin sa ganun.
06:44.4
So, out of frustration, feeling ko hindi na ako makaka-uwi.
06:47.4
Kasi nga, wala akong budget for that.
06:49.4
Tsaka, bukas na eh.
06:51.4
And you know how it is pag yung parang magbubuka ng one week.
06:56.4
It's like triple.
06:58.6
So, out of frustration, I posted a status on Facebook.
07:02.2
Sabi ko, so, it seemed like I passed the audition.
07:05.4
But hindi ako makaka-uwi.
07:07.0
Well, I guess it's not for me.
07:08.4
Tapos, may mga followers ako doon.
07:10.8
I have a Persian friend who follows me sa mga gigs ko.
07:15.6
And she messaged me.
07:17.0
Sabi niya, what do you mean?
07:18.2
Bakit hindi ka uuwi?
07:19.4
Sabi ko, eh, kasi wala akong work and yung ganyan.
07:21.6
How much do you need?
07:22.8
Tinanong niya agad.
07:23.8
Sabi niya, it's 100,000.
07:26.8
And that's like 3,000 dollars.
07:29.0
Oo, sabi ko, but I cannot pay you back right away.
07:32.4
Sabi ko, no, I'm not asking you to pay me back.
07:35.2
I want you to go.
07:36.8
Kung meron akong helicopter, I would send you.
07:39.0
Sabi niya, right away.
07:40.2
Ang dami nang tumawag sa akin.
07:41.8
What do you need?
07:42.8
Kailangan mo ng ticket, ganyan-ganyan.
07:44.2
So, I have a friend who works for a travel agency.
07:47.2
So, she booked me a flight to the Philippines the next day.
07:50.6
So, pag uwi ko from Cambodia, pagkita ko ng parents ko, alis ako bukas ah.
07:55.2
Punta akong Pilipinas.
07:58.2
Eh, kasi mag-audition ako sa second audition on The Voice.
08:02.2
Tapos yung daddy ko at that time, naku, dahil magagaling doon.
08:05.0
Baka ano, delikado, ganyan-ganyan.
08:07.4
Worth it ba yung pag-uwi mo?
08:09.0
Sabi ko, hindi natin malalaman hanggang hindi ako uwi.
08:11.6
Anong feeling, let me, if I can interrupt,
08:14.0
anong feeling ng sarili mong magulang magsasabi sa'yo ng gano'n?
08:17.8
I would understand kasi at that time, medyo nagkakaproblema na ako sa boses ko eh.
08:23.4
So, siguro concerned lang siya
08:25.2
na, you know, baka mahirapan ako.
08:27.4
But I know my dad is my number one fan.
08:30.8
Kasi he taught me how to sing. Siya lang ang nagturo sa'kin.
08:34.0
Pero hindi ka na, hindi ka na ano, hindi ka na wala ng confidence nung humili?
08:38.2
Hindi naman, hindi naman.
08:39.8
Siguro nag-worry lang siya as a dad, as a mentor.
08:43.6
Pero sabi nila, okay, you have our blessings.
08:46.6
We're gonna support you paano man mangyari.
08:49.8
So, they let me go.
08:51.4
Punta ako ng airport.
08:53.4
Nadelay pa yung flight ko ng one hour.
08:55.2
Thank you to, ano, shout out to Philippine Airlines.
09:00.2
Tapos, pagdating ko ng Pilipinas, nag-breakfast lang ako, nag-toothbrush,
09:07.0
tapos diretso na ako ng ABS-CBN.
09:09.6
Yeah, wala pa akong tulog.
09:11.2
Tapos, when they saw me, they were very happy.
09:13.8
What song did you sing?
09:15.2
I sang Natural Woman.
09:18.0
Yeah, Aretha Franklin.
09:19.2
So, kinaya ng boses mo?
09:21.4
Kinaya naman. I think it's the excitement and the adrenaline.
09:25.2
Nung nandod doon ako.
09:26.4
Tapos, after ko kumanta, one of the main producers of the show, sabi niya,
09:32.4
Can I make a request? Can you sing one hello?
09:34.4
Eh, that song is one of my favorite song.
09:36.8
Sabi ko, sige po.
09:38.2
So, kinanta ko na siya.
09:39.4
Tapos, after that, I noticed yung papel ko, nilagay niya sa ilalim.
09:44.0
Sabi ko, ano kayang meaning nun? Baka kolelat ako or what?
09:47.0
Tapos, after that, sabi niya, punta ka doon sa room na to.
09:49.8
Yun pala, yun yung room ng mga nakapasa.
09:52.2
Diretsong interview na, VTR na.
09:55.2
Tapos, nakita ko yung pila sa labas, sobrang haba.
09:58.4
And I feel like, parang gusto ko sila i-good luck lahat.
10:01.6
Because I know it's a parang mahirap na process to get in.
10:05.0
It's like three auditions.
10:06.6
So, second pa lang to ha?
10:08.0
Second audition pa lang yun. Yung pinaka-third is the blinds na.
10:11.2
Who was living in the Philippines at that time na kamag-anak mo?
10:14.8
At that time, mga ano ko, mga cousins ko.
10:18.0
Both of my parents lived in Thailand at that time.
10:21.2
My sister ko nandito na.
10:24.6
My immediate family ko nandito.
10:26.0
Kasi iniisip ko lang habang nagkikwento ka, papunta kang Cambodia, wala sa usapan to.
10:32.4
Si Persian friend nagbigay ng ticket.
10:34.8
Following day, umuwi ka.
10:36.8
Hindi natin na pag-usapan.
10:38.4
Sino tinawagan mo sa Pilipinas na dyan muna ako sa inyo to?
10:42.6
Oo, mayroon akong cousin na she has a condominium in the Philippines.
10:46.8
Sabi niya, oh ate, dito ka muna sa kondo ko na tama-tama malapit sa resorts world.
10:53.4
Kasi nung nag-ano na kami, nagla-live na, doon yung venue. So malapit lang.
10:57.8
And also I have mga friends ko na who used to perform in Thailand, nasa Pilipinas na sila.
11:04.4
So sila din yung support ko doon.
11:06.4
So now, nakapasa ka sa second audition. Pag-iting sa blind audition, silang apat na.
11:12.8
Did you ever meet them before the blind audition?
11:15.8
Hindi. Actually, na-meet lang namin sila. Hindi namin sila, nakita namin sila.
11:21.2
Nakaabang kami sa corridor ng ABS-CBN. Tapos lumakad sila sa gitna ng corridor.
11:26.6
Para silang Fantastic Four na parang nag-slow motion yung itsura nila nung lumalakad sila sa amin.
11:32.4
Sino-sino tong mga to?
11:33.6
Andon si Lea Salonga, si Sara Geronimo, si Bamboo, and si Coach Apple.
11:41.6
Okay. What was going through your head nung nakita mo silang apat?
11:44.6
Meron ka nang naisip na coach at that point pa lang?
11:48.6
Nakaset na yung uta ko talaga kay Apat.
11:50.4
Kasi we're both in the same genre. He's hip-hop R&B and that's my genre.
11:57.6
So naisip ko talaga na siya talaga. Hindi ko naisip na gusto kong mag-international.
12:02.6
Naisip ko lang na mag-coconnect kami kasi we have the same music.
12:06.6
And naisip ko rin, sabi ko kung si Coach Lea okay din kasi talagang solid yung background niya sa music.
12:15.6
Pero sabi ko baka mahirapan ako kasi siya Broadway.
12:19.4
Hindi ko yata airy yung Broadway, sabi ko. Pero si Apple tayo.
12:23.6
Tapos tinanong nila ako, so sinong pipiliin mo sa coach kung sakaling makapasa ka sa blinds?
12:31.6
Sabi ko medyo confused nga ako eh kasi dalawa yung naisip ko.
12:35.6
Sabi ko, sino yung dalawa? Sabi ko si Bamboo tsaka si Apple.
12:39.6
Bakit sila? Kasi bagay kami eh. Di ba pag may lechon, may Bamboo tsaka may Apple.
12:46.4
So talagang mix kawing tatlo. Pero sabi ko yung i-air ko ah. Kasi baka hindi nila type yun.
12:53.6
In-air nila. Oh my God. Sabi ko parang ayoko sila, ayoko matandaan nila ako dahil doon. But all of them turned and…
13:02.6
Una si Coach Apple.
13:04.6
Kala mo naman hindi ko napanood eh. Kunyari lang excited ako. Di ba parang…
13:08.6
Si Coach Apple I think…
13:10.6
10 seconds pa lang nag-turn na siya. Tapos sunod si Coach Bamboo.
13:17.2
Tapos si Coach Lea. Tapos si Sarah yung pinakahuli.
13:19.4
What was your blind audition piece?
13:22.4
Natural Woman. Yun talaga yung ano ko. Because I know it by heart. I love Aretha Franklin.
13:27.4
Now, ini-interview ka na nila. Totoo ba yung pakiramdam na pagkausap mo sila, ang narinig mo lang yung…
13:35.4
O parang hindi mo alam yung…
13:37.4
Tapos nagka-tunnel vision.
13:38.4
Yeah, yeah. Totoo yun. Tsaka parang ano ka na eh. Nakakloud ka na ng ano yung mga balak mong gawin, yung pangarap mo. Nandito na lahat.
13:46.4
Narinig ko na lang na sabi ni Coach na parang I will help you, ganyan-ganyan. Plus points na yun kung magiging international. But I just wanna, you know…
13:55.4
Four coaches. You can pick and choose kung sino.
14:00.4
And you still picked Apple.
14:02.4
Yeah. Medyo nag-dalawang isip ako kasi ang ganda rin ang sinabi ni Coach Lea sa akin. And I really appreciate that. Parang feeling ko as a musician parang sobrang nakakataba ng puso yung sinabi niya.
14:16.4
But talagang I was set kay Apple talaga. Kasi parang ayoko na mahirapan kasi alam ko yung gagawin ko dahil yun na yung artistry ko, yun na yung music ko. So sa kanya talaga ako.
14:29.4
So tapos, okay. So finally, ayan na. Ang nakikita lang namin is yung nakikita ng lahat ng tao sa TV, di ba? Pero alam ko that's only the tip of the iceberg or those are the highlights of what really goes on.
14:42.2
What kind of work did you have to do and what kind of commitment to yourself and to the show did you have to give?
14:49.2
Yung commitment ko is my discipline. I really have to discipline myself na, you know, not to do yung mga bawal na bagay para sa boses ko. Tapos I really have to start networking kasi I don't live in the Philippines. Yun yung unang-unang kong fear. Sabi ko, sino ang buboto sa akin? Kasi hindi ako taga rito.
15:09.2
Tapos my best friend way back sabi ko,
15:12.2
wag mong i-underestimate yung mga tao na makikinig sa'yo. Kasi hindi ka pa nila naririnig. Dahil wala ka dito. Pero once they hear you, baka supportahan ka nila. Ganun. Tapos yung drive ko talaga to make my parents proud. You know, and my drive to show the people in the Philippines. Wow, hello.
15:33.6
Philippines. Na ano, yung mga artist na tulad ko, na mga full-figured women, meron din kaming spot sa music industry.
15:43.5
Oo. Na hindi lang, hindi porkit mataba kami, hindi kami, you know, ma-appreciate. Di namin makabibigay yung good performance. Parang it's about time na bigyan nila ng window yung mga singers na tulad ko.
16:00.0
Exactly. Yeah. But si Adele, iniwan tayo sa ere. Nagpapani.
16:04.9
Na-in-love, ano ka ba?
16:06.2
Na-in-love. But ganun, ako din naman, na-in-love ako dati, hindi naman ako pumayat.
16:10.0
Kanya-kanyang nga-nina.
16:10.8
Kanya-kanyang. Bagay.
16:12.6
So ano yung regimen ng, and the reason why I wanna know this is because people think yung trabaho natin as musicians, as artists, akala nila madali.
16:25.0
Because Janice Javier can be the greatest singer, memorize a thousand songs, not drink cold water and everything else, and still be unsuccessful.
16:36.3
Diba? Hindi guaranteed ang finish line natin.
16:41.6
Hindi ka tulad ng may college degree ka, at tama yung trabaho pinasukan mo, siguradong may kukuha sa'yo.
16:49.3
So, yun ang context ko ng mga tanong ko.
16:52.3
Is because, in spite of the uncertainty of bagging the gold, you still went through the whole process.
17:01.5
And mind you, biyahera ka na eh. Which means, may security ka na somehow eh.
17:07.8
Why? What was going through Janice Javier's mind?
17:12.9
Naisip ko kasi, when I was on The Voice, one of my main purpose is, yun nga, to introduce myself.
17:22.3
I can be someone in the Philippines. Parang, I can, I can do whatever they are doing. Ganon.
17:28.9
So, ayoko rin yung naririnig na, kakanta ka lang naman eh. Hindi ganon kadali ang pagkanta.
17:35.4
I've honed my, my talent for so many years. I've been singing since I was five.
17:40.6
Ang tagal-tagal ng panahon na kumakanta ko. I never stopped learning.
17:44.4
That's one of the things na sinasabi ko sa mga baguhan, na you never stop learning your craft.
17:52.3
You practice, you research, you listen to many artists.
17:56.7
Di ba, you, you pick points sa kanila when you're listening.
18:00.1
I don't compete with, with anybody. I'm competing with myself.
18:05.7
Pag when you compete with someone else, parang it's, you're pulling somebody down.
18:10.3
At saka may kasamang ingit yan eh.
18:12.6
Mm-hmm. Kasi alam ko na I cannot do what they do.
18:15.8
They cannot do what I can do.
18:17.2
Gusto ko makita ng Pilipinas kung ano yung kaya kong gawin at kaya kong ibigay.
18:22.3
Na binibigay ko sa ibang bansa. Bakit hindi ko mabigay sa sarili kong lugar?
18:27.5
Sabi ko, it's about time siguro na dito naman ako sa Pilipinas.
18:30.9
So week after week, you, you began doing this. Kailan bumalik si Janice Javier sa sarili niyang katawan?
18:37.6
I think when I got through the knockouts, the knockout round. Kasi ano yan eh, when the blinds muna.
18:45.1
Tapos, so after the blinds, very confident na kanya kasi apat silang nag-turn.
18:50.4
Pero nung ano, nung...
18:52.3
Nung knockout round na hindi ko genre yung kinanta namin, which is don't stop believing by journey.
18:59.2
I had to like bring out my, my rock star aura. Parang ganon. But my voice was starting to get tired.
19:09.1
So parang sabi ko, parang hindi ko yata makanta ng maayos. But I did the best that I could nung nag-perform ako.
19:18.1
But still people will, you cannot please everybody. They will still criticize you.
19:22.3
Ang daming nag-bash na hindi naman ganyan dapat kinakanta ng rock songs. Kasi sanay ako ng may mga runs.
19:28.1
So ginawa akong version ko yung kinanta namin. Tapos parang sinasabi nila na mas maganda yung isa, mas maganda yung gano'n.
19:35.5
How'd you feel nung binabatikos ka ng gano'n?
19:37.9
I felt bad in the beginning kasi parang sa akin binigay ko naman yung best ko.
19:44.0
Ano na yun, it's the universe who, you know, paved the way for me. Ako pa rin yung nakagethrough on that round.
19:52.3
At doon na nagsimula yung kaya ko to. Ito na si Big Mama.
19:57.3
Yeah. So they call me Big Mama J in the voice sa competition.
20:02.9
So parang nagigain ko na uli yung ano ko, yung tiwala ko sa sarili ko na kaya kong tumagal, na kaya kong isurvive tong competition na to.
20:12.5
Tapos I'm very friendly with everybody. Hindi ako snob na, ay magaling yan, ayoko kayang kausap. Hindi ganun.
20:20.3
So I, parang I encourage...
20:22.3
I encourage everyone to do well. Yun yung, yun yung ano ko, ginagawa ko palagi na I don't criticize.
20:30.2
If I do, sarili ko lang. Hindi ko sinasabi kahit kanino. Kasi normal naman yun sa atin.
20:35.3
Na parang may journal, no?
20:37.8
So yeah, ganun. And when I did the first live ng week ng live, live week ng The Voice, I had a very good performance.
20:47.0
I performed I Believe I Can Fly. Tapos ang comment nila, parang ginagawa.
20:52.3
Ginagawa ko na daw Grand Finals yung performance ko.
20:56.8
Kasi ang sarili ko, when you perform, think of it as your final performance.
21:03.0
You give everything. Kasi you'll never know if you're gonna get a second chance.
21:07.1
So kung pag-perform ka ngayon, bigay mo na lahat. Kung ano yung puso mo, ano yung nararamdaman mo, bigay mo na lahat.
21:14.1
So that's what I did. And then I got through.
21:17.2
Tapos every, every pagkatapos mo ng live episode, meron kayong debriefing kasama.
21:22.3
Meron. You know what's the nicest thing kay Apol? May competition o wala, or may taping o wala, he's always around.
21:32.1
Yeah. He always call us.
21:34.6
O, Lika, labas tayo. Kain tayo. Sabi ko, hindi ako nagkamali ng piniling coach.
21:39.9
Kasi lahat kumakain eh, diba? Talagang halaga niya yung appetite ko.
21:46.1
Masaya, masaya yung team namin. We have the best team, the best brothers and sisters.
21:52.3
Na naging form na barkada na.
21:54.3
Are you still in touch with them?
21:55.3
I am. I am very, very much in touch with everybody.
21:59.3
So tapos ito na, let's go to, closer to the finals. Naaamuy mo ba?
22:05.3
Mukhang maaabot ako. Nakikita mo sa momentum ng text, response sa tao.
22:11.3
So naaamuy mo nga.
22:14.3
May something, diba?
22:16.3
Diba? Normally gano'n e, parang uy. And sometimes it can mess with your head eh, no?
22:21.8
Because pag, minsan pag nasisingot mo na eh, you tend to become complacent or…
22:25.8
Yeah, nagiging ano, kampaante.
22:29.8
So, paano mo nilabanan naman yun?
22:32.8
Actually, nung there was a time na akala ko okay na. Kasi yung first performance ko na I Believe I Can Fly was amazing, ganyan.
22:43.8
Had a very good comments, ganyan, ganyan. Tapos during the process, ang dami namin ginagawa. Bukod sa studio rehearsal.
22:50.8
Nagpa-plug kami ng show.
22:53.8
We would go to an early morning show like 6am. We would go there by 5am. Tapos natatapos kami ng recording or rehearsal ng 1am. So yung tulog namin 3 hours, 2 hours.
23:06.8
Yeah. So pagod. As in pagod talaga. Tapos dumating yung third week na where I have to perform Imagine from John Lennon. Tapos ang daming tatanong, bakit yan? Wala namang kabuhay-buhay yan yung Imagine.
23:20.8
Kasi masyadong Imagine. Ganun lang. Sabi ko, no, I'm gonna give my own version of the song. Tapos I gave it to Sir Homer Flores.
23:29.8
E nagulat siya. Sabi niya, hindi ko alam, akalain na it could be performed like this. Yung Imagine. Pero ang nangyari naman that time, sobra akong napagod. Nawala yung boses ko. So I was devastated. Sabi ko, ayoko na. Hindi ko na kaya mag-go on. Kasi pagod na pagod na ako. Paus na paus na ako.
23:50.8
So talagang ang resort ko na lang is my doctor. Sabi ko sa kanya, doctor, pwede mo ba akong tulungan? Kasi gusto ko lang mag-get through tong night na to. Pag hindi talaga ako pumasa, hindi ako nakalagpas, at least I did everything I could. Tapos pinuntahan niya ako, tinulungan niya ako, binigyan niya ako ng medicine. Tapos nagdasal ako. Sabi ko, Lord, if this is your will, magmo-move on ako sa final stage.
24:20.8
Tapos doon ko naramdaman na ang dami kong naging suporta from the people that I don't know. Tapos more from the people who knows me. Pero mas nakakagulat yung hindi ko kilala na nagbigay ng suporta, na naggumastos ng pera para bumoto sa akin, bumili ng sobrang daming SIM card to vote for me. Hindi ko alam paano nangyari.
24:47.9
Tapos when I went out the stage, kasi may narinig ako nagpo-perform si Clarice. Ang galing-galing ni Clarice. Sabi ko, oh my God, hindi ko kaya. Sabi ko, hindi na yata. Ito na yata yung last night ko.
24:58.9
So may self-doubt pa rin?
25:00.6
May self-doubt pa rin ako. Kasi nga, pagod na ako eh. Hindi ko na kaya. Hindi ko na alam paano ko kakantayin yung song dahil ang taas din.
25:07.1
Minsan sinisisi ko yung sarili ko, bakit ba itong areglo yung pinagawa ko?
25:10.0
How was you to say?
25:11.6
So finally, nung kaya na.
25:12.8
Nung lumabas na ako ng stage, I heard the cheering of the crowd.
25:16.4
Para akong binuhusan ng malamiglan.
25:17.9
Na parang bumalik yung self-confidence ko na, oh, kaya ko to. Kaya ko to. Kaya ko tong lagpasan.
25:26.4
Nararamdaman ko while I'm performing, bumibigay na yung boses ko. Parang may time na bumibitaw siya kasi mataas talaga yung areglo.
25:35.2
The more na nararamdaman ko na parang napapagod ako, the more mas malakas yung cheer ng mga tao.
25:42.2
Yeah, parang yun yung parang adrenaline ba na, oh my God, let's do this.
25:47.9
Parang ganun. So, parang what I did was I took them to church. Yung style ko, like a soul singer.
25:56.2
So, ginawa mong gospel.
25:57.2
Ginawa akong gospel yung song and it worked.
26:00.5
I want people to get inside your head because alam ko yung pakiramdam na yan eh.
26:06.0
Na feeling mo hindi mo na kaya, narinig mo yung sigaw nila, crossroad yun.
26:11.8
Though I, as a singer, you're able to, ang term doon, binabali na lang eh.
26:17.2
Pwede mong baliin. Wala naman makakalam na babaliin mo or paninindigan mo kung ano yung areglo at titirahin mo yun.
26:25.4
Risking na pwede kang pumiyok o pwede mag-flat o pwede mag-sharp.
26:30.2
How many of those moments in a minute and a half did you experience? Grabe no?
26:35.7
I bet you that was the longest one minute and a half.
26:37.7
Oh yeah. From the very beginning, nag-ano ako, parang nagtatalo yung utak ko anong gagawin ko para gumanda yung version ko.
26:45.5
Well, technically maganda na.
26:47.2
Ang sinasabi mo is, paano ko gagawin na maganda pa rin yung version ko?
26:53.5
Kasi baka hindi ko kayang tamaan to dahil pagod na ako yun.
26:57.7
Oo. Kasi yung areglo ni Sir Homer, mataas talaga yung ending niya.
27:02.9
So sabi ko, Lord, ito na, ito na, ito na yung last na birit ko.
27:06.7
Kahit na bumuka yung pantalong ko, sige na lang.
27:09.5
Nakantayin ko na to.
27:10.6
So, naabot ko siya.
27:15.1
Tapos, ginawa akong…
27:17.2
Naisip ko si Aretha Franklin, what she would do.
27:20.1
Oh, may sin-off mo.
27:21.7
Ginawa ako, sabi ko, how would Aretha Franklin approach this song?
27:25.6
In a split second mo naisip yan, ha?
27:28.2
Kasi, plus point siguro na antagal ko ng performer.
27:32.9
Experience, yeah.
27:33.6
Yeah. Because of my experience din.
27:36.2
So, dun ko na-incorporate yung style niya sa style ko.
27:40.0
Nabali ko siya in a nice way.
27:42.4
Na parang, uy, grabe, ang galing naman.
27:44.7
Parang ganang style pa rin.
27:45.8
Sa kala, daderecho.
27:46.8
Parang pag-aaral.
27:47.0
Parang pag-aaral.
27:47.2
Oh, si Lea napatayo nun.
27:50.7
Tapos, si coach niya, oh my God, you took us to church.
27:55.0
So, para sa akin, parang nag-work yung plano ko.
27:59.6
Siguro, yung Holy Spirit din.
28:03.2
Nag-ignite din ako.
28:04.4
Kasi talagang, every line I sing, na binibitawan ko, may prayer yun sa gitna.
28:12.2
Malapit mo tapos, oh.
28:13.5
Ten seconds na lang, oh.
28:15.5
Ten seconds na lang, tapos na ako.
28:17.0
Tapos, you know what?
28:18.3
After ko kumanta, gutom na gutom ako.
28:20.8
As in, gutom na gutom ako.
28:22.4
Tapos, may part yun na, syempre, kakanta pa si Kuya Mitoy.
28:25.7
Siya yung final eh.
28:27.3
So, kung meron yung mga ten minutes,
28:29.6
baba mo na ako doon sa basement, andun yung mapagkain namin.
28:32.1
Kumain talaga ako after ko mag-perform.
28:34.8
Kasi parang gutom na gutom ako, napagod na pagod ako.
28:37.7
After ko mabusog, bumalik na ako sa taas.
28:40.0
Okay na ako ulit.
28:42.4
Yun lang, parang,
28:44.0
hindi ko na lang siya masyadong sineryoso.
28:47.0
Kasi alam ko na, ginawa ko na lahat eh.
28:50.5
And, I have 15-year-old kids.
28:53.3
And, nai-inlove sila ngayon.
28:55.0
Yung nararamdaman niyo, huwag niyo seryoso eh.
28:56.7
Dahil, mararamdaman ng babae na masyadong i-desperado at uptight.
29:00.4
Pag pinakawalan niyo, magugulat yan, lalapit sa inyo yung mga yan.
29:04.4
To your point, right?
29:06.1
Nung sinayang mong nilaro mo na,
29:07.8
kumbaga parang, ayan na eh, wala ka na magagawa.
29:09.8
Ito na yung boses.
29:11.2
Ito na yung panahon.
29:12.5
You'll do the best you can.
29:14.7
And then, you just detach yourself from the out.
29:18.2
Yeah, that's true.
29:19.4
After ko mag-perform, sabi ko,
29:21.2
I don't care anymore kung makalagpas ako or not.
29:24.4
Basta para sa akin, that was the best that I can do.
29:28.3
Yan na yung pinakakaya ko.
29:30.0
Na Lord, sa'yo na yung will.
29:31.6
Kung talagang ipagpapaadya mo na makakalagpas ako hanggang grand finals,
29:41.0
Wala lang yun eh.
29:42.8
Mas-celebrate ulit tayo.
29:44.2
As I coach, pakai-barbecue ka naman dyan.
29:46.5
Di, madalas kami doon sa BGC may K-Pub.
29:51.8
K-Pub ang pangalan.
29:53.3
Hindi ko pa napupunta.
29:54.3
K-Pub. Doon kami lagi.
29:55.2
All you can eat din?
29:56.5
Pag ako nandun, all you can eat.
30:01.1
So anyway, ayan na.
30:02.9
Palapit ng palapit.
30:05.2
Did you expect to be the grand champion?
30:10.8
I hoped, pero hindi ako nag-expect masyado.
30:14.2
How was your relationship with Mitoy?
30:17.1
Kasi nung unang-una, kami yung pinaka matatanda doon.
30:20.6
Kami yung pinaka-senyores.
30:22.3
So, umpisa pa lang, nag-gather pa lang lahat nung nakapasa sa second audition.
30:26.7
Wala pang blinds.
30:28.0
We were like hundred something.
30:30.5
Pero kami yung tatlo, ni Kuya Mitoy and ni Maki Rica Fort.
30:34.4
Kami yung tatlo yung naging very close.
30:36.2
Kami yung makukulit sa likod na parang tumatawa lang lagi.
30:40.5
Si Mitoy kumidyante pa yun.
30:41.9
Oh yeah, si Kuya Mitoy.
30:42.8
Ang daming naging issue about,
30:46.4
nangalot si Kuya Mitoy.
30:47.4
Sabi ko, you go and watch Kuya Mitoy perform.
30:52.7
Iba talaga si Kuya Mitoy.
30:53.8
Magaling talaga siya.
30:57.3
Super, super baet.
30:58.5
Pag nakita mo offstage, cool na cool lang.
31:01.0
Pag sampa, talaga, wow.
31:04.3
Kaya di mo new to.
31:06.9
Pero super galing.
31:08.3
Super galing siya.
31:09.0
Hands up ako kay Kuya Mitoy.
31:16.4
Napaka-opposite ng personality ng dalawang yun ha.
31:20.4
Kasi hindi ko alam kung ano yung tumakbo sa isip ni Kuya Mitoy.
31:25.6
Kasi hindi ko alam.
31:26.4
Hindi ko na matandaan kung sino humarap sa kanya eh.
31:28.9
But he made the right choice for me.
31:32.3
Si Coach Lea talaga.
31:33.5
Well-rounded din si Mitoy eh.
31:35.7
I think what Lea can bring is that discipline talaga eh.
31:39.3
Kasi ang meron natin ng mga biyahero at saka tumutugtog gabi-gabi,
31:44.4
meron na tayong mannerisms and habits.
31:47.9
Eh ito, napaka-disiplinado ang tao ni Lea Salogue.
31:52.3
Teknik ang ituturo sa iyo niyan eh.
31:54.5
Yes. That's true.
31:55.2
Eh type, banda pa naman.
31:57.1
Ang mga banda pa naman, pagkatapos ng gig, hindi pa ito uuwi.
32:00.1
Oo, kakain pa yan.
32:01.1
Magpupuyat pa yan.
32:03.8
Hanggang mga gana.
32:04.8
Tapos uulitin mo na naman, tumutugtog ka na naman na lang.
32:06.9
Ganon ang routine natin, diba?
32:08.5
Nung nagbabanda pa tayo.
32:10.5
Anong takeaway lesson mo sa The Voice that people can pick up on?
32:16.4
Never underestimate yourself.
32:18.7
Never doubt yourself.
32:21.0
Kasi ako at that time, I doubted myself na hindi ko kaya.
32:24.5
You know, pag dinasal mo talaga, if it's meant for you, it's gonna happen.
32:28.2
Yan ang takeaway ko, yung mga experiences ko, yung mga friends ko na naging kaibigan ko during the competition,
32:36.8
yung mga tao sa ABS-CBN na naging very close ko.
32:39.9
Until now, meron pa rin kaming communications.
32:42.6
Lahat, ang dami kong blessings from The Voice.
32:46.0
Would you encourage kids to actually join competitions?
32:51.6
Because it's a good training ground for them to hone their confidence nila.
32:58.6
Kasi mas titibay yung tapang nila to face a bigger crowd pag nag-stick sila sa ganitong career.
33:06.4
So parang mas marami din silang matututunan.
33:09.6
Because when you're competing, nagre-research ka eh.
33:12.3
Nag-aaral ka, nagpa-practice ka.
33:14.0
So I would suggest it.
33:16.0
To kids like, lalo na yung mga gustong-gusto talagang maging singers.
33:19.5
And body shape should not be an issue also.
33:22.8
But you have to take care of yourself.
33:25.4
I've tried many times na magpapayat.
33:28.4
Pero sabi siguro ni Lord, hindi, ganyan ka na lang.
33:31.0
Tsaka yung boy, di ba nasisira boses sa diaphragm?
33:36.7
Pero si Adal hindi naman nasira.
33:38.6
Pero siguro may ni Lord yun na pumayat siya.
33:41.3
Eh sabi ni Lord sa akin, ganyan ka na lang.
33:43.1
Pero sabi ko, pag pumayat ako, mag-boyfriend ako ng mga isa.
33:48.6
Siguro sabi ni Lord, wag na, pangit ng plano mo pag pumayat.
33:51.1
Ayun, kaya siguro.
33:52.0
Mataba ka na lang.
33:52.8
Speaking of ano, speaking of pagbabanda.
33:56.4
We had Richie Ramos on the podcast.
33:59.9
At ang kwento ni Richie, kasi nakasabay ko siya nung nasa Altered siya.
34:03.0
I was with this band, Mystery.
34:04.9
Nung time niya, Skin at the time.
34:07.1
So, mga gwaping yung mga yan eh.
34:09.7
And ang kwento niya, because naaga siyang lumagay sa tahimik.
34:16.0
He had to, he had to make both ends meet.
34:20.8
And sabi nga niya, ang shoutout was toward you.
34:25.5
Helped him and his family.
34:27.7
Paano nag-start yung relationship niya ang dalawa?
34:30.3
Kasi yung unang biyahe niya is unang biyahe ko din.
34:33.1
So, we were the youngest member of the group.
34:35.2
Toreho kami, 18 yata kami pareho.
34:37.4
Reluctant biyahero siya nung time na yun, ha?
34:39.3
Oo, parang ayaw niyang bumiyahe.
34:41.4
Tapos nagtago pa yata yung sa maleta, parang gano'n.
34:44.1
Basta ayaw niyang umalis.
34:46.0
Tapos siguro na-realize niya na baka mas malaking kitain abroad.
34:49.8
So, yung mga nagsimula namin, kami lagi magkasama.
34:53.2
Kami lagi magkasama kumain, lumabas, gumimik.
34:56.7
Ikaw pala ang may dahilan.
35:00.2
Tapos, bilib na bilib ako sa kanya.
35:02.5
Kasi sobrang galing ni Richie talaga.
35:05.1
Sinwala ako masabi, ang galing niya sa pagbabaho.
35:09.2
Sa gitara, lahat. All around, keyboard, lahat.
35:12.4
Magaling, magaling si Richie.
35:13.7
And napakabait din naman niya.
35:16.0
Nung panahon na yun.
35:17.5
Hanggang ngayon naman.
35:18.4
Mabait pa rin si Richie.
35:23.5
Sabi ko, mukha ka santunin nyo ah.
35:25.5
Ano nangyari sa'yo?
35:28.6
Pero sabi yun nga.
35:29.5
So, madami kaming experiences nung kami nagbabanda.
35:34.5
Pero nagkaroon kami ng falling out nung nagtumutugtog kami sa Pilipinas.
35:41.7
Kasi, yung isang membro namin, biglang nagpunta ng Boracay.
35:46.0
So, ang naiwan, tatlong vocalist na lang. Eh, it's a prime night.
35:50.8
So, sabi ko, Richie, kantayin natin yung Stand By Me.
35:53.5
Kasi sa Stand By Me, meron doong long part where he's gonna play a solo bass.
35:58.7
And sobrang proud ako sa kanya when he plays that solo.
36:03.2
Ayaw ko. Nag-i-inarty siguro. Sorry, Richie.
36:06.3
Pero yun nga, ayaw niya talaga. Sabi ko, baala ka ba't ayaw mo.
36:09.8
So, ako, nahihirapan ako mag-isip ng line-up kasi ako yung nagla-line-up.
36:13.2
So, parang inon-on ko yun.
36:16.0
Dinabda ko yun na parang ayaw mo kong tulungan, ha.
36:18.6
Kailangan mo kong tulungan kasi namamu-moblema tayo.
36:21.7
So, parang feeling ko para sa akin, parang iniwan niya ako sa ere.
36:26.2
Tapos, after nun, nag-away kami, nag-talo kami, pero hindi kami nag-usap, ganyan-ganyan.
36:31.2
Tapos, bibaya kami ulit, ayaw niya na sumama.
36:33.6
So, ikudal ba yun sa akin? O hindi man siguro.
36:36.8
Pero siguro may nahanap na siya na grupo sa Pilipinas.
36:40.1
At mas naging komportable na rin siya kasi ayaw niya siguro iwan si misis.
36:46.0
So, hindi na siya nagbiyahe ulit.
36:47.8
Nagkita kayo lately? Nung nandito siya, hindi?
36:50.2
So, kailangan, pero nagbati kayo?
36:52.2
Oh, yeah. Naging okay din naman kami.
36:54.2
After how many years?
36:55.9
Oh, kasi medyo matagal. Matagal din.
36:58.8
Nung nasa Thailand na ako, kasi I lived in Thailand for 15 years.
37:02.7
Hindi ako masyadong umuwi.
37:04.1
So, pag, nung nagkita kami after nung time na nag-away kami, parang walang nangyari.
37:09.9
Tuwing nakikita ako ng parang teddy bear, lagi ako nagyayakap, naako pa yan.
37:13.8
Kasi nagigil-nagigil siya sa kakyutan ko.
37:16.6
Ako din naman, nagigigil din ako sa kanyang...
37:21.0
Meron na, dami nang pwedeng kurutin.
37:23.6
And parang walang nangyari.
37:25.1
Ganun pa rin, we're still very close.
37:27.7
Nakami nagkukuntuhan, ganyan.
37:30.0
We catch up on life.
37:32.1
Basta siya, nakita ko na kasama niya yung mga artista, tumutugtoy siya sa mga masikat na tao.
37:38.8
I'm very proud of him.
37:40.7
Hanggang ngayon, kung nasan siya ngayon, ginagawa niya na itaguyod niya yung family niya sa pagiging...
37:47.2
Kasi ang daming nagkikritisize sa mga musicians na sinasabi nila na hindi mo kayang pag-aralin yung mga anak mo
37:54.1
kasi musikero ka lang.
37:56.0
Kasi that happened.
37:57.8
Nakakwento ko lang ah.
37:59.9
Nung tatay ko, nung nanliligaw pa siya sa mami ko.
38:03.5
Sorry lola, sa malangit na wak.
38:05.4
Ano sabi niya sa mami ko, anong papakain niya sa'yo?
38:08.3
String ng baho niya.
38:09.9
Sabi niya doon sa nanay ko, sabi ng tatay ko,
38:12.3
sabi mo pati buong baho ko papakain ko sa'yo.
38:16.0
Hindi lang yung string.
38:17.7
But you know, he managed to support the whole family.
38:21.7
Napatapos na kami ng college.
38:23.6
We had a good life, we have a decent life.
38:26.0
Sa pagtugtog lang niya.
38:27.9
And nai-share pa niya sa akin yung gift niya as a musician.
38:31.4
Yun yung pinaka-importante.
38:33.7
And I'm just so sad na nandito na ako, wala naman siya.
38:41.6
I'm sorry to hear this.
38:44.0
Where's your mom?
38:46.7
She's home, yeah.
38:48.1
And sabay silang nagka-COVID, but my dad didn't survive.
38:54.1
Nung time na namatay siya?
38:55.7
And he's a very good musician.
38:57.5
He sings like Barry White, like Lou Rawls.
39:00.9
Nung bata-bata pa siya, he was a keyboard player of Hot Dog,
39:04.7
second generation.
39:06.0
So I grew up sa buhay ng musikero.
39:08.5
Exposed ka talaga.
39:10.4
Ilan kayo magkakapatid?
39:12.1
Kayo na sister mo?
39:14.4
Kasi doble din siya eh.
39:17.1
Have you always been big?
39:19.5
Pinakapayat na na experience ko nung bininyagan ako.
39:22.2
O tapos dire-direcho na?
39:25.4
Di ba meant to be yun eh?
39:28.2
Hindi mo na pwede pigilan.
39:32.4
Mag-check ako kanina umaga.
39:36.5
Di ba kung yun ang baseline mo, wala ka na mag-ago?
39:41.5
Kung baseline mo yan, yun na yun.
39:46.5
Do you have an album out now?
39:48.6
I only have one album.
39:50.3
Self-titled album.
39:51.4
Isa kasi yun, surprise.
39:52.5
Sabi ko, self-titled album.
39:59.1
Name ng sister niya yung Roda.
40:01.4
Shout-out to ate Roda.
40:02.7
And kay Rachel na rin.
40:04.8
Aking best friend, Rachel Bautista.
40:07.9
So Janice ang title.
40:09.1
Janice Javier, under MCA Music.
40:11.2
Na UMG na yata ngayon ang pangalan.
40:14.3
Hindi na nasundan?
40:16.4
Kasi walang opportunities.
40:19.3
Pero marami akong kinanta na
40:22.5
in-interpret ko ng mga originals na ibang tao.
40:25.8
And sa Thailand, I write music for Thai musicians.
40:31.7
Why don't you write for yourself?
40:34.2
Minsan hindi ko, dumadating na lang yung time na may naisip ako.
40:38.1
Pero hindi kasi ako marunong mag-instrumental.
40:40.4
So, hindi ko ma...
40:41.7
Pag may naisip ako, nire-record ko agad.
40:45.7
wala na, nakakalimutan ko na
40:48.0
wala akong talent masyado sa pag-write ng music.
40:51.8
But I always would love to have an original Tagalog song.
40:56.1
So, shout out sa mga music songwriters, Jan.
40:59.4
O, gusto ko magkaroon ng Tagalog song.
41:03.8
Kasi puro English yung kinakanta ko.
41:05.5
My career single is written by a songwriter from New Zealand, I think.
41:14.8
isa yun sa mga pinasang song sa akin na pinakinggan ko.
41:18.7
Sino nag-produce ng first album?
41:22.2
Pero sino ang producer mo?
41:24.8
What year was this?
41:30.2
So, hindi pa si Ricky Ilacad ang...
41:32.4
Yeah, si Sir Ricky.
41:33.6
Yeah, si Sir Ricky yun.
41:34.5
So, si Neil Gregorio.
41:39.4
Isa kasi sa price ng The Voice is recording contract.
41:45.9
Pero ako, two years lang ginawa ko.
41:48.3
Kasi, nung time na yun, every year kasi may The Voice.
41:51.9
So, every year, nadadagdagan yung artist ng MCA.
41:54.8
Lahat ng top four.
41:56.5
Automatic yun, recording artist ko lang.
41:58.0
So, free agent ka ngayon?
41:59.9
Yeah, wala akong agent.
42:02.6
Now, you're in the States.
42:04.6
You're doing shows.
42:05.9
We talked off-cam.
42:07.4
Huwag na natin i-detail yun.
42:08.4
But how does it feel doing shows here in the States?
42:11.7
It's very different how you do it in the Philippines.
42:14.7
But it's a learning experience for me.
42:17.1
Kasi, parang, ah, ganun pala.
42:19.4
Ganun pala kailangan gawin.
42:21.1
Ganun, mate, mga dami ka palang dapat kausapin to make a show.
42:25.2
And to make a very successful show.
42:27.7
So, I've learned how to market myself.
42:30.8
I've learned how to make a lot of contacts with so many people.
42:35.7
Tsaka, nakakapagod din yung ano yung magre-remind ko.
42:38.0
Eh, may show ako.
42:39.8
Iba yung paulit-ulit.
42:41.1
Please, anod ka naman.
42:42.6
Maniwala ka o hindi as intro voice?
42:44.3
Tumayo kami sa, ano, sa Seafood City.
42:47.5
Para magbigay ng flyers noong 2005.
42:51.7
The first time na sumampang intro voice dito.
42:54.6
Kami ang pinag-promote ng promoter namin.
42:58.4
Kami ang nagabot ng flyers.
43:00.5
Ginagawa ko din yan.
43:02.5
Nagpo-post, nagpupunta ako sa mga local shops na Filipino shops.
43:06.6
Pwede ba magdikit ng poster dito?
43:08.7
Magdikit ka po ng poster.
43:09.9
Mimigay kami ng flyers.
43:11.8
And you know what?
43:12.3
Ngayon, hindi na ako nahihiya.
43:13.5
Ikaw, nahihiya ka pa?
43:15.7
Kasi kailangan eh.
43:16.9
At saka pag nakita mo yung result.
43:19.2
Alam mo na pinaghirapan mo yung show na yun.
43:21.3
Na may kinalaman ako dyan.
43:22.7
Kaya may tao yung venue.
43:25.0
Hindi mo inasa sa kung kani-kanino.
43:27.2
Tsaka ano ko, medyo makulit din ako pag nag-invite ako.
43:31.1
Kasi alam ko na hindi sila maboboard.
43:33.7
Hindi sila mapapahiya.
43:34.5
Hindi ako mapapahiya sa kanila.
43:37.8
Let's pick up on that.
43:40.0
Because that's a very good way of putting it.
43:42.6
You know who you are.
43:44.3
You know the quality of show that you can deliver.
43:47.3
Which is why kahit introvertish ka sa ganyan,
43:50.3
kaya mo mag-invite because you are responsible enough to know
43:54.7
that you are going to give them a good show.
43:57.6
Is it because of experience?
44:00.0
Is it because of the voice?
44:01.5
Is it because of your talent?
44:03.5
Or is it all of the above?
44:06.4
Lahat yun connectado.
44:07.7
Siyempre hindi ka magbibenta ng sarili mo
44:09.9
kung ikaw wala kang tiwala sa sarili mo
44:11.9
na kaya mo silang paligayahin sa
44:14.3
boses mo sa performance mo.
44:15.6
Wow, boses pa lang yun.
44:27.1
that's why every time I go out,
44:29.2
like when people ask me to jam,
44:31.3
para akong nagpa-perform.
44:32.6
Para akong nagka-concert.
44:33.8
I don't do that para magyabang.
44:36.1
Kasi lagi akong nababrand na naglalagay.
44:38.9
Sa mga banda term is naglalagay.
44:42.4
Putting one over the other.
44:44.3
Gano'n yung ibig sabihin nila.
44:45.8
Parang nagyayabang.
44:47.1
Parang pinapakitaan mo yung singer nung banda.
44:50.5
You're just showcasing who you are
44:51.8
and what your style is.
44:53.3
Kung ano ako sa pag-jam,
44:54.8
ganon din ako sa pag-perform ko.
44:56.8
Kasi I don't sugarcoat.
44:58.2
I don't, you know,
44:59.1
basta kung ano yung makikita nyo sa akin,
45:01.1
that's what I'm gonna give you.
45:02.6
So, alam ko kung ano I can offer,
45:04.8
what I can bring to the table.
45:06.1
Alam ko kung paano.
45:07.1
Alam ko yung kilitin nyo.
45:08.4
Kasi ang sa akin,
45:10.9
lagi kong sinasabi,
45:11.8
when I'm on stage,
45:14.7
that is my throne.
45:16.2
Kayo, hawak ko kayo lahat.
45:17.6
Parang ako yung nandito sa stage.
45:21.1
Parang ako to eh.
45:22.3
I can do whatever I want
45:23.5
because this is my place.
45:25.0
That's your domain.
45:28.0
may term doon eh,
45:28.9
na parang kaya kitang kunin.
45:30.6
Kasi when I perform,
45:32.0
I communicate with my eyes.
45:34.8
Hindi ako nagpa-perform
45:35.8
nung nakatingin ako sa kawalan.
45:38.9
O sa taong may itsura lang.
45:43.8
But I wanna make them feel
45:45.2
na they're a part of my show.
45:49.5
Lagi kong sinasabi sa mga singers,
45:51.3
when you're singing,
45:52.3
when you're performing,
45:53.1
you're telling a story.
45:56.8
na parte sila nung song mo,
45:58.7
nung performance mo,
45:59.7
is when you communicate with them
46:01.5
when you're singing.
46:02.6
Parang sila yung kausap mo,
46:03.9
sila yung kinakantahan mo.
46:05.2
So when you sing,
46:06.3
make them feel na part sila.
46:09.2
At ng performance, yeah.
46:10.2
Nung performance mo.
46:12.3
yun yung success,
46:13.8
secret ko I guess.
46:15.2
Kaya medyo nagwo-work
46:17.1
yung performance ko.
46:18.8
Hindi ko na naisip
46:20.7
na hindi ko kahit pangit ako sa stage.
46:22.7
Hindi ko na nangalina yun.
46:24.1
Wala naman nakakaisip nun.
46:25.8
naisip lang namin
46:26.4
pag binabanggit mo,
46:33.8
your personality is louder
46:35.3
than the way you look.
46:38.5
I think ganoon naman
46:39.4
and we should look at
46:41.2
the person's personality.
46:43.8
yun ang pagkatakot naman talaga niya.
46:46.0
Yung personality niya.
46:47.7
Sino ang favorite
46:51.3
Ang favorite artist,
46:52.4
all-time favorite artist ko
46:53.7
is Whitney Houston.
46:56.0
nung namatay siya?
46:57.2
Oh, I was devastated.
46:59.0
I felt like I lost
47:02.3
kasi I was able to see her perform live.
47:10.6
Kasi mas affordable
47:11.7
ang mga concert sa Thailand.
47:15.1
yung presyo dun sa Pilipinas
47:17.3
or sa ibang lugar,
47:21.7
ng presyo sa Thailand.
47:24.2
So, divided by five
47:25.1
mga ganoon-malaga nun.
47:29.3
And nasa front pa kami.
47:32.6
nung nag-perform sa Whitney.
47:33.5
Pero nag-meet and greet pa kayo
47:36.7
Pero, nung kumakanta siya
47:37.5
ng I Want To Dance With Somebody,
47:38.6
syempre kami yung
47:42.5
I want to dance with you.
47:42.8
I want to dance with somebody.
47:45.2
So, natuwa siya sa amin.
47:47.2
Ano yung aura niya live?
47:49.9
Hindi ko ma-express
47:51.5
kung ano yung aura niya eh.
47:54.5
parang ka nakakita ng,
47:57.0
parang ka nakakita ng
48:02.4
since I was young.
48:04.2
Talagang siya yung gusto kong
48:07.8
Now, it's very surreal
48:08.7
na nasa harapan ko lang siya.
48:11.2
Ang sarap ng pakiramdam.
48:13.4
thankful ako na sa lifetime ko
48:19.6
para akong nabless ba?
48:21.4
I made the right choice na siya
48:22.7
yung talagang gusto ko.
48:23.6
Hindi, hindi man lang trying.
48:25.1
I-visualize ko lang ah.
48:26.4
Hindi trying hard.
48:29.3
yung swag niya siguro.
48:32.4
I want to dance with somebody.
48:33.5
Yung kinakanta niya.
48:38.1
ultimate performer siya.
48:40.3
Masarap pakinggan.
48:43.8
nung nabalitaan mong wala na siya,
48:45.6
it really broke your heart.
48:53.8
kumantalagin ng mga Whitney Houston songs.
48:56.0
I want to pay tribute to her.
49:00.6
when I was younger,
49:03.3
is a multiplex singer.
49:05.7
ano siya maginagawa?
49:13.4
Nakalimutan ko yung ano niya.
49:16.5
gumagawa rin kami ng gano'n.
49:19.5
ang mga kinukuha namin
49:20.8
si Nalani Misalucha.
49:22.7
Si na Medwin Marfil
49:26.1
Boy, you know what?
49:26.9
Ang mga sound engineers ko doon
49:28.4
is members of True Faith.
49:31.1
si na Acer Pastor.
49:34.6
Si na Francis Guevara.
49:35.8
Yeah, Francis Guevara.
49:37.8
I work with him in MCA still.
49:39.8
Nabutan ko rin yung Fullerton.
49:42.6
siya ang arranger.
49:43.4
Si JJ ang nag-arrange
49:44.4
ng mga kinakanta mo.
49:48.5
Reunion tayo, kaya.
49:50.3
Speaking of reunion,
49:51.4
did you know that
49:51.9
the chair you're sitting on
49:55.6
originally kay Vince Nantes yan.
50:00.7
kung tawagin namin.
50:03.8
Yun, si Vince Nantes.
50:05.4
kind of work together
50:06.9
dahil pareho kayo
50:07.6
kung nakiapple the app
50:11.4
what can we expect
50:22.4
So, I keep doing shows.
50:25.6
like, once a month,
50:31.0
for my own pleasure.
50:32.5
pag nag-show tayo,
50:33.8
hindi naman pwedeng every month.
50:35.2
Hindi pwedeng every week.
50:36.3
So, minsan nababoard ka
50:37.3
kasi hindi ka kumakanta.
50:44.0
Kasi napansin ko,
50:45.6
karamihan ang napapanood
50:47.1
dito sa California,
50:50.8
Laging 80s yung ano.
50:52.0
Parang hindi pa ako
50:52.7
masyado nakakarinig
50:55.6
tinitira nilang mga songs.
50:57.9
So, parang gusto ko,
50:59.5
ako yung magsimula
51:02.8
Kawawa yung mga tao
51:10.3
I hope I did that
51:11.4
Kasi ang Jerry's Grill,
51:13.2
believe it or not,
51:15.0
hindi ka mga gano'n.
51:16.5
Yeah, super puno.
51:19.6
Shout out Jerry's Grill.
51:21.6
ng parang Chris Ivan
51:22.6
ang nag-ice ng schedule.
51:24.0
Gusto ko tumagtog.
51:25.5
you should try Fridays
51:29.4
kailangan lang palakasin yung...
51:31.4
the last time was Friday.
51:35.4
kasi a lot of people
51:36.5
are coming from work.
51:38.2
So, super traffic.
51:39.5
Yeah, so na-late kami.
51:41.4
We're supposed to start
51:42.7
Nag-start kami 9 na.
51:45.0
So, super late na.
51:46.5
Do you have a day job?
51:50.0
I take care of my niece.
51:51.4
I take care of my mom.
51:56.3
Pero natry ko na din
51:59.8
Natry ko yan one time
52:00.8
kasi my sister's friend
52:02.6
kailangan niya ng reliever.
52:05.0
wala na ka naman ginagawa
52:06.2
so why don't you try it?
52:09.7
Tapos bedridden na yung ano.
52:11.2
So, magpapalit ka ng diaper.
52:15.1
magpalit ng diaper.
52:16.2
Magilinis ng ano.
52:18.1
Certified Filipino in America na ako.
52:20.6
Kasi nakapaghugas na ako ng ano.
52:25.7
ang isang magandang experience ko sa kanila
52:28.8
ginagamit ko yung voice ko.
52:31.2
When I do that job.
52:34.8
na yung inaalagaan ko
52:35.9
hindi siya makatulog.
52:37.9
kinantahan ko siya.
52:38.9
Kinantahan ko siya ng
52:39.8
what a wonderful world
52:42.0
she was just staring at me
52:43.1
kasi hindi na siya nakakasalita.
52:52.0
hindi ko to nagawa sa lola ko.
52:53.8
nagawa ko sa ibang tao.
53:00.3
Titibay talaga tayo rito
53:03.3
So, last question
53:04.2
before we land it.
53:05.3
What do you want for Christmas?
53:09.7
maging mas healthy pa
53:13.0
kasi she's getting weaker
53:17.8
kasi she's always been
53:21.5
mag-isa na lang siya.
53:27.2
there are times na
53:28.3
how I wish my dad
53:30.9
pinapamalita sa mga
53:35.7
magaling kumanta.
53:37.2
nanalo sa The Voice.
53:44.0
sayang kung nandito siya
53:45.1
kaming dalawa siguro
53:49.3
kasi galarin yung tatay ko eh.
53:51.7
Eh, lalo na ngayon
53:52.3
nagdadrive na ako.
53:53.5
Baka hindi na kami
53:54.2
maumuuwi ng bahay.
53:57.2
gusto ko siya makita
54:04.2
kahit sa dream lang
54:06.4
kasi I never had a chance
54:13.6
he was in the hospital
54:14.9
he would always call me
54:16.8
tapos hindi ko ina-imagine na
54:20.1
kasi malakas siya eh.
54:22.9
bigla na lang sinabi
54:24.3
na ililipat siya sa
54:25.4
na i-intubate siya.
54:29.1
na i-intubate siya
54:29.8
doon na siya nawala.
54:31.2
Doon na nag-deteriorate
54:32.5
yung health niya.
54:41.3
nakapunta ng Amerika
54:42.3
nung namatay na siya.
54:44.3
nire-regret ko yun
54:45.4
na hindi ako nagpunta
54:47.1
para makasama ko siya.
54:50.2
Na parang gusto ko
54:51.1
just the other day
54:52.4
I was looking at his Facebook
54:54.1
kasi hindi man siya
54:54.9
nagpapakita sa akin
54:58.3
may multo na ganyan.
55:00.9
lumalabas, di ba?
55:02.3
Madalas akong makakita
55:03.5
ng taong kamukha niya.
55:09.1
may makita akong guest
55:10.7
natatanghimik talaga ako.
55:14.1
Parang napapag-ganun ako.
55:19.1
gusto ko makita ko siya
55:20.8
kahit sa panaginip lang
55:22.6
na makausap ko siya
55:24.8
proud ka ba sa akin, Daddy?
55:26.7
Nandito na ako sa Amerika.
55:33.6
kasama ko na si Lakikit
55:40.1
na ano bang tingin mo
55:41.6
sa buhay ko ngayon dito.
55:44.4
yun ang pinaka-ultimate
56:01.5
gusto kong kumanta.
56:02.8
Kanta lang talaga
56:03.6
yung main job ko.
56:04.8
I think I'm good at it.
56:15.9
tiwala lang sa sarili
56:20.0
ng matagal na panahon.
56:22.9
that God has given me.
56:25.2
I wanna keep sharing it
56:32.2
sa lahat ng mga tao na
56:33.4
kahit kinukulit ko
56:36.6
na manood sa akin.
56:45.3
Ladies and gentlemen,
56:46.0
Miss Janice Xavier.
56:57.4
Please don't forget to like,
56:59.3
and support Janice.
57:03.7
wherever you are.
57:12.1
Please support Janice.
57:17.3
Sana makulit, ha?
