00:00
I don't know the formula why I stand out. I'm just a very passionate performer and
00:15
singer. I could be one thing, I could be one thing, but I don't really know how to
00:18
define myself as that. I don't know what the secret is. I've done
00:21
something I'm very proud of. From generation to generation I've sort of
00:25
sustained a career and I've reinvented myself before and that's a very rare
00:30
thing in music and entertainment. Next year's gonna be my 28th year. Next year's
00:33
a big year for me also because of course 20 years that's uh I'm gonna have a big
00:39
party in Manila. That's what's gonna happen. I'm gonna I probably have a major
00:42
concert then. For some I can see they can go into TV first you know and for some I
00:49
can see can seriously get into music. It all depends on their commitment of what
00:54
they want to do. Now's the time they have to say all right I joined the show
00:57
now what do I really want to be? Do I want to be a singer or just a singer? Do
01:01
I want to be an artist? Do I want to be a TV personality? I myself I'm looking for
01:05
an artist. I'm looking for someone who's gonna sustain and continue what I do
01:09
that's tell stories right and from a personal point of view I'm looking for
01:14
an original voice. The magnifying glass is on them, the spotlights on them, so
01:18
it's up to them to do what you know.
01:21
It's unfair the people voted for him. That's music you know taste is taste. Did
01:26
I think maybe Mike should have been the I mean I'm biased right so of course I'll
01:29
say Mike should have the should have gone in there because he was a you know
01:33
musician, an artist, a guy who wrote songs. You know that's the kind of thing I'm
01:37
gonna continue to look for as even as the next show the next season progresses
01:42
I'm not gonna change that. My personal favorite though was Clarice. I thought
01:47
Clarice was really was really special. I mean I don't see her as a pop star I
01:51
see her as like a like almost like a rock like a rock country pop artist
01:56
almost like a Kelly Clarkson something like that and that's high praise because
02:00
Kelly Clarkson's like amazing and a great vocalist a great singer and
02:03
songwriter so I see her as that. I thought there was a lot of potential
02:07
with her to sort of to be this sort of big thing right. In contrast to Mike, Mike
02:14
is such a talented singer but I see him as a guy who sort of built a niche and
02:19
built a sort of a you know guy who a songwriter a guy's gonna sort of create
02:23
his own thing and push forward with that a real original and but he's very
02:28
young he was the youngest most inexperienced guy in the four right and
02:33
Janice was amazing Janice is always amazing. I think he is he's a performer
02:40
it's his real gig he plays in Resorts World. We're shooting The Voice he plays
02:43
that on a weekly basis. I'm just very happy for him and his family I know that
02:47
like I've been there I've played the set that sort of the weekend gigs in and
02:52
out so for him to sort of do that after all this time you know I mean you have
02:57
to be happy for him regardless of you what if he sort of fits your taste or
03:02
not. Do I say yes is he a great singer and yes he is vocally great is he my
03:08
taste I don't think so you know me just doesn't fit my sort of
03:13
sensibilities right because I'm a guy who sort of chooses everything has to
03:17
connect like a like the vocal tone has to connect with the power blah blah blah
03:21
you have to be a total package within your package. That takes too much time I
03:28
would love that but maybe later on but this has given me a taste of that just
03:33
what you can do with such young raw talent in the Philippines I mean they
03:37
are raw that's that's that's a big realization for me that they were so raw
03:43
compared to guys I listened to in the US or the UK the shows there where you can
03:48
tell they were very experienced compared to in Manila especially my team we have
03:52
the youngest team I think if you're gonna average it out and I really had
03:57
the seriously that that coach thing on behind me I really coached I really
04:02
mentor these guys I really spent time with them and I really truly knew who
04:06
moving for who is like the real artist who who's in here for a career and who's
04:11
here who's just passing but passing through I got a good gauge of that
04:15
managing I'm just too busy right now I mean that's maybe when I'm yeah I don't
04:21
I have no idea I can never say but yeah it's music first and I just want to
04:26
create first I want to do an album that's that's that's first that's first
04:29
that's why I love to do
