00:00I want him to be on the show.

00:07Do you have that episode?

00:09I mean, for all your talent, I mean, I'm talking as a fan, as a friend, and as a music lover,

00:16may dumadaan ka talaga sa pagkakataon na you still doubt, Martin?

00:20Well, siyempre, after all these years, 42 years in the business, tapos nanonoodo ko

00:24sa mga ibang artists ngayon, music has changed, yung style ng direction has changed.

00:30That's why I have Paolo Valenciano to kind of show me how yung itura ng mga concerts

00:36ngayon, siyempre, nakaka-tense yun para sa mga kagulat.

00:40I'll go to your quote.

00:41You know, you would say, you know, they're getting better and they're getting younger.

00:45Martin's going to tell you something, and this is coming from my heart, but there will

00:49always be, and there will only be, one Martin Nivera.

00:56Hindi.

00:59Everyone, I know this.

01:00I mean, we will go.

01:01The one immutable law in the business is that no one lasts forever.

01:04Alam natin niyo.

01:05It's true.

01:06But there will always be just one Martin Nivera.

01:10And I say it straight to your face, and I say it straight to the faces of the public.

01:15That's why everybody's so excited.

01:16We are so, Aptori Ibarra is here.

01:18We are so excited because you're coming back to the big stage.

01:22Yes.

01:23Which you started.

01:24Well, you know, not too many of the kids watching know that, so.

01:26You started it.

01:28We needed a guinea pig to go to the big stage to see kung kaya talaga ng isang artiste.

01:32I remember.

01:33What was that?

01:34Many years ago.

01:3583.

01:3683, we started it.

01:37Martin wanted.

01:38You were the first one to go to Ultra and many other things.

01:39I'm talking like a publicist.

01:40But anyway.

01:41Para lamang magkaroon ng ideya, lalo ng mga bata, on how you started, and I'm sure a lot

01:47of your fans.

01:48Tell me about a story of the song Feelings.

01:52Feelings?

01:53Yes.

01:54Well, I was singing Feelings.

01:55Galing mo, ah.

01:56Ano ka ba?

01:57I was singing Feelings.

01:58And I discovered, in the locker room after a basketball game, hindi ako naglaro, so kunyari

02:02naglaro ako, so antagal ko sa shower.

02:04Habang nung nagsishower, nage-enjoy ko sa reverbed echo.

02:08Right.

02:09May dumaan ng isang lalaki.

02:12Wrestling coach.

02:13Wrestling coach.

02:14Hindi naman nanood.

02:15Nakikinig siya sa akin, sabi niya sa akin, hey, I want you to audition tomorrow for

02:20the choir.

02:21So I joined the choir.

02:22I became part of the choir.

02:24Which did backup vocals.

02:25For Barry Manilow.

02:26See?

02:27So, Barry, together, even before that, siguro kasabayan ng mga panahon ito, he makes the

02:31best burgers.

02:33I do.

02:34That one I will accept.

02:35Yes.

02:36You do talaga.

02:37My kids love it.

02:38I love it.

02:39I slap it on with lots of barbecue sauce.

02:40Because they had a restaurant.

02:42Tell us a short story.

02:43In California, we had a burger place right by the BART station, which no longer exists.

02:46It's a parking lot.

02:47But back then, we used to make burgers sa mga dumadaan dyan after they get home from work.

02:53We would make burgers, adobo sandwiches, lumpia.

02:57It's called the Roadrunner Burgers, Concord, California.

03:01Okay.

03:02Do you also know that Martin Rivera won a California-wide talent search some time, just

03:12before you started.

03:13I think it was...

03:1481.

03:1581.

03:16Just before you came back to the Philippines.
