MANILA, Philippines - Christian Bautista successfully represents the
Philippines with his own brand of music during the Annual Pattaya International
Music Festival 2010 last March 19. ??At first I was feeling a bit nervous
backstage because aside from the huge crowd, the many TV media present, this was
going to be my first live showcase in front of a Thai audience. When I came out
and heard the crowd cheer, I actually saw many who sang along with my first song
The Way You Look At Me. I was told a few years back that it charted in five
radio stations in Bangkok dun na ako nag-enjoy at nag-relax,? Christian
beams.
Christian also sang Tell Me Your Name from his Romance Revisited album soon
to be released in Thailand. While singing, they aired his music video that
featured Thai model actress superstar Paula Taylor. His third song was with a
famous local Thai singer Panadda.
??I only found out today during rehearsals that it was Christian who sang The
Way You Look At Me upon hearing this I got goose bumps and hugged him because I
love that song even till now. My friends love it too. As a DJ, I would always
play it. I am amazed to have gotten the chance to perform with Christian knowing
he sang that song,? Panadda reveals.
The Pattaya International Music Festival this year invited top singers,
musicians and even pop groups that are big in the region like Zhang Li Yin of
China, Leprozy of Laos After School, f(x), Wheesung of Korea, Deep Ng of Hong
Kong, Thomas Jack of Malaysia and Christian for the Philippines. Some of the
most famous pop singing stars of Thailand also joined in the festival like Chin,
Michael and Golf who are all under the biggest independent record label and
entertainment conglomerate ??Grammys? who also sponsored the entire event.
