Thank you for featuring The MADz. My husband, who is one of your subscribers, called me to watch it. I just came home to the Philippines to attend our MADz reunion rehearsals and recording! Yes, I am blessed to be an alumna. It just brought me to tears during our rehearsal/recording days. It seems so surreal! The experience of more than 70 people singing together and still sound so good gave me goose bumps. It felt like the good old days of singing together. It's as if we didn't stop singing together. Our voices envelopes each other's voices! It is the way we were trained to sing. We practiced endless hours especially before a tour, concert or competition. Thank you again for featuring our group.
You're 70 in all? That's impressive! Is that from different batches? I love madrigal singers! Congrats and thank you for bringing prestige to our country... You're beyond world class! ❤❤❤
wow welcome mam to @Throga-Voice Gym..Filipinos are proud of your Groups Madrigal Godbless and T.c i wish you will be questing here in their podcast live ❤❤❤🎉..More Power and blessings and Contest to come ..
I am ecstatic that you have found the Madz! Arguably the best choir in the world. They are truly the pride of the Philippines. I love this group so much that I married their soprano 1. lol! So I am biased. Please react to the Madz singing “Eres Tu” in Uruguay!
First time hearing Paraiso by the Madrigal Singers. What a beautiful vocal arrangement of this song. My eyes swelled with tears listening to their voices.
It’s Madrigal Singers. Madrigal is a regal bird in the Philippines.This choral group is the most awarded in the Philippines as well as around the world in their peak. Paraiso(Paraiso) is such a beautiful, beautiful song written by Sir Ryan Cayabyab, the same fellow who composed Sometime, Somewhere sung by Regine Velasquez in one of your vlogs and just recently sung by Stell.The audience was literally transfixed and were crying. Sir Ryan Cayabyab is a National Filipino artist and just recently composed a song for Stell after Stell performed at his 70th Birthday Concert. This concert is not to be missed. The best of the best of Filipino singers, males and females!
@renealcid6708 Actually the word Madrigal is a form of singing w/o instrument during the renaissance period. We were formerly called the UP Madrigal singers because all members are from the university. However, during my time they started accepting non students from UP. I for one is not a UP student. Then we became the resident choir of the CCP (Cultural Center of the Philippines) so the name was changed to The Philippine Madrigal Singers.
I'm am proud that we have Philippine Madigal Singers. I wish and and Wishythat someday I am one of their members. I am Bass 2. so miss this master Piece ( PARAISO )
'PARAISO" (Paradise), composed by no other than one of the philippines' national artists, maestro ryan cayabyab. It was popularized by the filipino pop group 'smokey mountain' and won international accolades.
The Madz. They all are Music “students”! Known worldwide, and grand prize winners of various competitions worldwide! The gentlemen at the end is the conductor! Thanks for featuring the Madz!
The concept was to have all members coming from the UP College of Music but that was not always the case. I for one was not from the College of Music let alone a music student of any school. Most of the members do come from the UP during my time but from different colleges too (engineering, sciences, architecture, etc.).
@@arlenez-c7552 hi, thanks for the clarification, and I guess that is why I put quotation marks on the word students. I guess in one way or another regardless of the field of education, you all are “music students”! I love the Madz version of the Apocalyptic Alleluia! Goosebumps everywhere, but then I believe for all songs sang by the Madz! 👍👏👏👏👏
You're right in there, Richard. If one does not like BINI, it's okay. We have our own liking and preference of singers. Disliking an artist is not a good thing to do, much more posting it in the chat. Grow up, people!
i suggested in a channel to check out G22 in a BINI video. i said that G22 is a group that could go up against BINI... you should have seen the BINI fans justify why BINI was better. I was like WTF is wrong with these people getting all defensive. I couldn't figure out if they misunderstood what i was saying so i got all toxic back. Like i'm a fan of BINI and G22 but that day i just wanted to slap someone....like somehow they couldn't get the fact that i like them both groups but oh nooooooooooo. People should learn to stfu and read what i was trying to say and not assume that i was hating on another group cause i was suggesting another one lol
I@@partyeslife8157 maganda ang g22 pero yung management nila ang problema.. hndi sila pinopromote nang maayos... Isa din sa problema sa ppop walang show na makikita sila sa tv.. unlike bini lagi sila na promote sa tv.. if g22 under abs cbn at laging nkikita sa tv .im sure sisikat sila...
@@user-cc6ql4he9e ABS CBN fanatic spotted. There are many great artists that are unknown by many people. Just like our Filipino singers that haven't yet known before by this channel. Move on! The channel has been closed down years ago. Please don't bring the network war here.
Eumee Capile has a viral video, maybe from 3 months ago, where she walked in on a Korean street band in Myeongdong (Seoul, So. Korea), joined in, and sang Never Enough. For her encore, she sang Bang Bang. By then, a huge crowd had formed that impeded traffic, and while still singing Bang Bang, the cops came, tried to disperse the crowd, and one (or two?) of them approached the band-maybe to ask them to stop 😅 That was recorded on a phone, too, and she sang amazingly well there!
Madrigal singers have been around for a very very long time. They’ve been around since I was a little girl ,for context I’m almost 60. The members just change as the older ones retire , they were the original acapella singers before it became a thing.
The Madz was and still is the standard for us back when I was in high school choir to the point our choir director even took us to see them during one of their concerts (with parental permission of course).
Kris Lawrence is an R & B singer who likes doing rifts in his performances. Try checking out his other songs. . We're proud to say that Bruno Mars is half Filipino singer.
We have tons of viral Karaoke singers on differrent places ( inside the house , on the streets, karaoke bars, beaches, malls, backyards, during weddings, birthdays, dringking sessions, etc. etc. , so many singing competitions. Tawag ng tanghalan the longest ever ( more than 5 decades) singing competition in our country is still producing awsome singers since Nora Aunor "golden voice of the Philippines" . Even on schools singing competitions starts from elementary to college every school year. we have school bands, school rondalla , school choirs, school glee clubs, student singing groups, . we also have Juniors and seniors songs every year during JS prom, graduation songs. Sometimes school bands or rondalla accompanied our folk dancers. In the Philippines , there are so many venues to cultivate good singers starting from womb to tomb. Thank you for reacting to Filipino artists.
The conductor Mark is at the end on the left side. He conducts using his head. Almost all of the members of the Madz are voice majors/conducting majors at the UP College of Music and most the members have their own amazing sounding choral groups in their area. They showcase their own choirs in a Madz et al concert. I am fortunate to have participated in that concert back in the day.
Interestingly, at the end of the song, they showed the Cultural Center of the Philippines which literally rose out of the Sea( reclaimed land fronting Manila Bay where one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world can be witnessed). SB19 performed outside of this landmark for the Round Festival , the first time they formally were introduced to the world.
Kris Lawrence is one of my favorite singers. Considering that there are literally hundreds to choose from speaks volumes. Thank you so much for finally reacting to him. Please also check out Sean Oquendo, an underrated Filipino singer who is amazing. He makes all covers he sings better than the original!
Trivia: Maestro Ryan Cayabyab used to have a Pop Group called Smokey Mountain. He currently wrote a song for SB19 Stell called "Di Masabi" with MV released last August 17, 2024. He was so impressed with the interpretation of SB19 Stell of "Sometime, Somewhere" during his Concert (Gen C) last May 2024. He hand picked SB19 Stell to perform "Sometime, Somewhere".
I watched the Madrigal singers here in Toronto and they were simply amazing. There were people who had teary eyes because of their heavenly voices. It transcended me somewhere beautiful while listening to them.. They are world renowned singing group. If given the chance would you please react to them again sometime in the near future thanks.
Paraiso (Paradise) was originally sung by a youth Filipino group, Smokey Mountain and song was composed by Mr Ryan Cayabyab, National Artist of the Philippines for Music and one of the icons of Original Pilipino Music (OPM). Mr C as he is fondly called, composed a song for Stell. Please check it out as well as when Stell sang one of his compositions in Mr C's birthday concert. The song that Stell sang is called Sometime, Somewhere which Regine sang (original was Mr Basil Valdez)
You guys should find the video of the original group who sang PARAISO when they competed in Japan with that same song. Curiously, none of the original four kids who sang that were even 18 or 19 when they sang the heck out of it.
I am still patiently waiting for you to react to Regine, Lani, and Jaya singing The Greatest Love of All. I really do hope one of these days you react to our Vocal Trinity. Here in the Philippines, it is the dream of many music fans to see them perform together once again while none of them is retired yet. For now, we only have the TH-cam videos of their old performances to watch.
Awesome Madrigal Singers ..Very seldom I hear a choir that sings while they are sitting down and there are some of their performances that even if they are only a few members the choir sounds so full and I really like their ordinary day in restaurants where they just having fun relaxing and singing together…hahaha the never ending joke on James Ingram 😂
dears Richard and Johnny thank you for supporting Filipino music and artists... our thoughts and comments have been heard, let's get together and continue to appreciate and support their channel..let's be responsible and respectful with our comments... looking forward to more TGIFFs 🎉❤reaction Wednesdays ...with you all..
Madz are truly amazing and entertaining, all rolled into one. They make us proud of our musicality. I have had the chance to see & hear Madz in concert, I was instantlly shocked how good they are. I collect their cds back then. They are a true gem. Voices in acapella gives you an high probably like sniffing cocaine or a some potent concoction. Madz voices are addictive. Cant get enough of them. Kudos to your show! I have read somewhere even back in colonial times, the Spaniards were particularly impressed with the musicality of the Filipinos and even now our music knows no boundaries. More power to your show!
The Philippine Madrigal Singers is a student choir from the top university in the Philippines, these are the best classical music students in the country.
58:10 James Ingram day.... YES PLEASE!!!!!!!! Filipinos LOVE James Ingram SO MUCH!!! His songs are like the backdrop of our youth that still triggers wonderful hormones even after 30 or 40 years later. And the children of my generation probably have heard them at home since they were babies that they have become preconditioned to them and naturally loved those James Ingram songs as well.
BINI has 8 members (P-Pop girl group) recent release of "Cherry on Top" (English) was performed the LA KCON 2024 (K-Pop Convention). Other songs "Salamin, Salamin" "Karera" "Pantropiko" "Lagi"
Wow! What a great day or night here🇵🇭 watching you guys, every reactions you gave was amazing i hope you’re not tired watching Filipino artists..there are so much more to see and you’ll never go wrong with that… both of you brings more joy and happiness to me when i watched you.. so all the best and Goodluck! 😊❤🇵🇭🙏🏻🫶🏼☺️
For next week’s TGIFF, kindly consider the ff performances by Lani Misalucha👇 1. Nessun Dorma - she sang it in Las Vegas 2. Queen Medley - with the Manila Phil-Harmonic Orchestra (MPO) 3. Asean Gala Dinner with Pres. Donald Trump - together with Jed Madela, Jona, Darren Espanto, Elha Nympha, etc. 4. Light of a Million Mornings - also with the MPO In addition, pls consider again Arnel Pineda👇 1. Collaboration with the band, TOTO 2. Collaboration with Taka of One OK Rock Thank you very much.
Now, that’s the National Formal ATTIRE OF THE Filipino woven from pineapple fabric worn by the singers of the Madrigal singers. Del Monte and Dole Philippines have vast plantations in the Philippines.
Once again another great day for the Philippino community to have the spotlight shine on them and to the immense talent they have to offer.another great reaction Richard and Johnny 👏👌
I still think you should feature Sunday noontime shows. Two of the largest local channels have competing noontime shows, both of which (surprise) are music centred and feature some great talents. It's ASAP and AOS (All out Sundays). There are multiple co-hosts (some of whom you have watched and reacted to already); it would just be a good peek at what Filipinos are exposed to on a weekly basis on TV. It's almost 2 hours of solos and collabs.
Please react to "Comme d'Habitude" and "Eres Tu" of the Philippine Madrigal Singers and A Night of Wonder disney medley by Zephanie, Janella and Stell.
watching from United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi), I always watch these two gentlemen every after work... Love the show.. genuine and honest reactions always...
Tawag ng Tanghalan is a singing show that has been around forever in the Philippines. I remember watching when I was young and I'm 65 now. It was in b&W then and the whole neighborhood gathered at my grandmother's house to watch it. Back then, not every house had a tv yet.
Religiously speaking, the Philippines has been blessed by GOD so much with talented singers. I think that we will sing for the Lord when the time comes. If the Levites are the priests, we are the singers.
Leave the door open cover by 4th Impact, they’re so talented, they’re one of the Ppop girl groups. Their harmonies are exceptional and will bring you back to the 60s.
Budakhel and Katrina are just on another super level! One more of them, ”Thank God I Found You”..stunning vocals and they’re so easy on the eyes😍😍😍. Love Filipino Fridays. If you have time, watch the end credits of “I’m Your Angel. “ They featured snippets of the musicians involved in their song. Pretty cool! You both are professionals!!!
Hi Richard and Johnny, Of course, once again, an extraordinary TGIFF! Greatly appreciated for honoring and celebrating the excellence of Filipino craftmanship! Lani Misalucha 1. Magic Flute/Ave Maria 2. Tila 3. Greatest Love of All with Regine and Jaya 4. Loving You 5. Queen of the Night Ryssi 1. No Air with Khel 2. Take a Bow 3. Comeback Aegis 1. Halik 2. Luha Suggestion for new artists to react 1. Juan Karlos 2. Julie Ann San Jose 3. Ayegee Paredes 4. Eva Noblezada 5. Vice Ganda 6. Angeline Quinto 7. Sheryn Regis 8. Jessica Sanchez 9. Aicelle Santos 10. Sofronio Vasquez 11. Dulce 12. Smokey Mountain
Oh my, yes! That vid makes some foreigners freak out. But we sing at any and all occasions. This one was sung beautifully. Makes me cry when I watch. It is so utterly heartfelt. He may not have the words to deliver a eulogy but this is as powerful a eulogy as one can give
Bini is a great girl group. They have a whole lot of haters and bashers much like SB19 did when they first appeared on the scene. Unfortunately, the negative side of some Filipinos who are miserable with their pathetic lives!
Katrina and Budachel sang this song during the pandemic to share positivity and love during the Covid pandemic when everyone was locked up! Very inspiring and so well received by everyone!
Yes Kris version of this song was the Best but i think it was put down, maybe someone complained to the wish bus version, so we cant seem to search it anymore at youtube, kris version. What you can see/search of kris version from wish bus is from a different source with very low quality video, but from the wish bus it self is already not available.
Ryssi. Friday. "Matsala". ORIGINAL SELF-WRITTEN song. From Idol audition, teh 2nd song. She got platinum ticket, standing ovation, hugs from the judges. Made Regine laugh, cry and shout Disqualified! - beacuse Ryssi really is too good for Idol. This one is very short 01.45, perhaps it can be a bonus song? I expect Richard to cry from the raw emoting. Ryssi Avila - Alipin - Idol Philippines 2022 Auditions - time 05.10-07.10
I love how she's messing with the time signature. It's like a half-tempo 8/8 with a syncopated 3+5 feel. It sounds so interesting but she also makes it sound so natural and easy at the same time. Rhythmic genius.
"RYE-SEE", that's the way RYSSI herself pronounces her own name! OMG Ryssi next time, I'm so excited. Thank you po. I will recommend a lot of songs. 😍🥰❤💯
Would love to hear something from Zephanie (1st Idol Philippines winner) as well as Keiko Necesario (acoustic folk artist doing her own songs) Both are great! Both are on Wish Bus plus many recordings on other platforms. Zephanie was chosen to do the Tagalog version of This Wish from Disneys "Wish". Her collab with Troy Laureta is incredible. Keiko does so many of her own tunes. Special songwriter's voice! Her version of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now is haunting. Her original "Through It All" is excellent. Being a songwriter and musician myself, she is one of my favorites in the Philippines.
I think the first video of Philippine Madrigal Singers performing "Paraiso" is a different generation or set of singers from the last performance of Circle of Life.
Paraiso was originally performed by the group smokey mountain that was formed by Ryan Cayabyab. He is also the composer of the song. I suggest you guys check the original version.
we apologise for the negative comments about Bini. the Filipino audience have very high standards with regards to music. auto tune, lip-sync, not singing live is considered disrespectful to the audience in our culture- which is why singing live wherever, even if not- so- in- tune is highly supported and respected by listeners. we are harsh critics ... and harsher critiques of ourselves.. please check out Filipino audience attending live concerts... 😅❤
Not a bini hater, as a pop girl group on the rise they are great and deserve support but it's a case of time and place...their songs/general sound dont offer much for a vocal agility analysis channel to dissect...there's any number of vocalists or bands to explore that deserve a spot in TGIFF that are more up R&J's alley, and bini is just kind of not it 😅
No, I think they only used backtracks to support their voices because they were dancing while singing, but in their latest concerts in Vancouver, Canada, they did not use any backtracks.@@nenitabombase4896
RYSSI is about the insane TONE, RASP, EMOTING, VIBES. Her incredible ability to RIDE A BEAT, second to none. Her perfectly placed RUNS, always so tasteful. Her SONGWRITING. I've nominated songs that showcase all this. My faves are Kyla, Jona, Mori, Katrina, Gigi etc. But I think Ryssi is becoming my ultimate fave. Thank you for doing Ryssi. Maraming maraming salamat po. ❤
Oh..Kris Lawrence😍 For me he is a highly underrated singer. Also, he looks like he didn't age at all since I first watched him in that Ph singing competition over 2 decades ago!🥹
My comment disappeared so typing it again. Hi guys, Gigi Vibes performed at the recent Wish 1075 10th Anniversary concert. I heard the official vids will be released by Wish around Aug 24th. She sang Bring Me To Life, She's Gone & Ill Be There. Thanks!
MADZ best is their rendition of ERES TU in an Uruguay church, because its impromptu, and so few of them and yet it's super ethereal (will elevate ur soul), did sugest before with the link even, but not played...
Imagine if each of them has his/her own music videos, you will have Filipino Fridays until 2099! Tay! 😁😍 But we your audience will be happier of course 👍👍♥️😍
Thank you for featuring The MADz. My husband, who is one of your subscribers, called me to watch it. I just came home to the Philippines to attend our MADz reunion rehearsals and recording! Yes, I am blessed to be an alumna. It just brought me to tears during our rehearsal/recording days. It seems so surreal!

Ella Nympha, Lyka Estrella and Eumee Capile's viral singing in Korea
👍
dears Richard and Johnny thank you for supporting Filipino music and artists... our thoughts and comments have been heard, let's get together and continue to appreciate and support their channel..let's be responsible and respectful with our comments... looking forward to more TGIFFs 🎉❤reaction Wednesdays ...with you all..
Madz are truly amazing and entertaining, all rolled into one. They make us proud of our musicality. I have had the chance to see & hear Madz in concert, I was instantlly shocked how good they are. I collect their cds back then. They are a true gem. Voices in acapella gives you an high probably like sniffing cocaine or a some potent concoction. Madz voices are addictive. Cant get enough of them. Kudos to your show! I have read somewhere even back in colonial times, the Spaniards were particularly impressed with the musicality of the Filipinos and even now our music knows no boundaries. More power to your show!
The Philippine Madrigal Singers is a student choir from the top university in the Philippines, these are the best classical music students in the country.
58:10 James Ingram day.... YES PLEASE!!!!!!!! Filipinos LOVE James Ingram SO MUCH!!! His songs are like the backdrop of our youth that still triggers wonderful hormones even after 30 or 40 years later. And the children of my generation probably have heard them at home since they were babies that they have become preconditioned to them and naturally loved those James Ingram songs as well.
BINI has 8 members (P-Pop girl group) recent release of "Cherry on Top" (English) was performed the LA KCON 2024 (K-Pop Convention). Other songs "Salamin, Salamin" "Karera" "Pantropiko" "Lagi"

It's a must to watch
Now, that’s the National Formal ATTIRE OF THE Filipino woven from pineapple fabric worn by the singers of the Madrigal singers. Del Monte and Dole Philippines have vast plantations in the Philippines.
Phil. Madrigal Singers singing “Eres Tú” (in Uruguay) and “C’est finie la comedie” (in France). Outstanding!!
Once again another great day for the Philippino community to have the spotlight shine on them and to the immense talent they have to offer.another great reaction Richard and Johnny 👏👌
I still think you should feature Sunday noontime shows. Two of the largest local channels have competing noontime shows, both of which (surprise) are music centred and feature some great talents. It's ASAP and AOS (All out Sundays). There are multiple co-hosts (some of whom you have watched and reacted to already); it would just be a good peek at what Filipinos are exposed to on a weekly basis on TV. It's almost 2 hours of solos and collabs.
Please react to "Comme d'Habitude" and "Eres Tu" of the Philippine Madrigal Singers and A Night of Wonder disney medley by Zephanie, Janella and Stell.
watching from United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi), I always watch these two gentlemen every after work...
Love the show..
genuine and honest reactions always...
Tawag ng Tanghalan is a singing show that has been around forever in the Philippines. I remember watching when I was young and I'm 65 now. It was in b&W then and the whole neighborhood gathered at my grandmother's house to watch it. Back then, not every house had a tv yet.
Regine Velasquez for one Wednesday please.. 🙏
You should react on Morissette amon and madrigal singers singing pangarap ko ang ibigin ka
Religiously speaking, the Philippines has been blessed by GOD so much with talented singers. I think that we will sing for the Lord when the time comes. If the Levites are the priests, we are the singers.
I got goosebumps from Philippine Madrigal Singers singing Paraiso.
On your next bonus video please - Filipino 'LISTEN' Mic sharing CHALLENGE! Thank you 😍
Leave the door open cover by 4th Impact, they’re so talented, they’re one of the Ppop girl groups. Their harmonies are exceptional and will bring you back to the 60s.
Please don't. Nooooo
eumee capile wrecking ball pls.
Budakhel and Katrina are just on another super level! One more of them, ”Thank God I Found You”..stunning vocals and they’re so easy on the eyes😍😍😍. Love Filipino Fridays. If you have time, watch the end credits of “I’m Your Angel. “ They featured snippets of the musicians involved in their song. Pretty cool! You both are professionals!!!
Thank you for another wonderful time watching you guys. Can't wait until next Friday ❤

The Philippine Madrigal Singers (MADZ), the two time European Choral Grand Prix Champion. So proud to be a Filipino 🇵🇭❤
Please react to a viral Filipino man a seaman singing How do you heal a broken heart at his wife's funeral
Oh my, yes! That vid makes some foreigners freak out. But we sing at any and all occasions. This one was sung beautifully. Makes me cry when I watch. It is so utterly heartfelt. He may not have the words to deliver a eulogy but this is as powerful a eulogy as one can give
Kris Lawrence’ cover of Taehu nga’ Ears, Eyes, Nose is absolute Fire!
Taeyung
Bini is a great girl group. They have a whole lot of haters and bashers much like SB19 did when they first appeared on the scene. Unfortunately, the negative side of some Filipinos who are miserable with their pathetic lives!
Katrina and Budachel sang this song during the pandemic to share positivity and love during the Covid pandemic when everyone was locked up!
Very inspiring and so well received by everyone!
Yes Kris version of this song was the Best but i think it was put down, maybe someone complained to the wish bus version, so we cant seem to search it anymore at youtube, kris version. What you can see/search of kris version from wish bus is from a different source with very low quality video, but from the wish bus it self is already not available.
The PMS sing like angels in heaven!!! Richard said theyre not humans so , there you go.
Yes, there is 'THE VOICE' and 'PHILIPPINE IDOL' in the Philippines
Ryssi. Friday. "Matsala". ORIGINAL SELF-WRITTEN song. From Idol audition, teh 2nd song. She got platinum ticket, standing ovation, hugs from the judges. Made Regine laugh, cry and shout Disqualified! - beacuse Ryssi really is too good for Idol. This one is very short 01.45, perhaps it can be a bonus song? I expect Richard to cry from the raw emoting. Ryssi Avila - Alipin - Idol Philippines 2022 Auditions - time 05.10-07.10
I love how she's messing with the time signature. It's like a half-tempo 8/8 with a syncopated 3+5 feel. It sounds so interesting but she also makes it sound so natural and easy at the same time. Rhythmic genius.
Johnny and Richard reacted to 3 of the judges before: Regine Velasquez, Moira Dela Torre, Gary Valenciano.
"RYE-SEE", that's the way RYSSI herself pronounces her own name! OMG Ryssi next time, I'm so excited. Thank you po. I will recommend a lot of songs. 😍🥰❤💯
Would love to hear something from Zephanie (1st Idol Philippines winner) as well as Keiko Necesario (acoustic folk artist doing her own songs) Both are great! Both are on Wish Bus plus many recordings on other platforms. Zephanie was chosen to do the Tagalog version of This Wish from Disneys "Wish". Her collab with Troy Laureta is incredible. Keiko does so many of her own tunes. Special songwriter's voice! Her version of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now is haunting. Her original "Through It All" is excellent. Being a songwriter and musician myself, she is one of my favorites in the Philippines.
Paraiso is so beautifully written... ❤ Ryan Cayabyab is truly a master!
Aegis Band
I think the first video of Philippine Madrigal Singers performing "Paraiso" is a different generation or set of singers from the last performance of Circle of Life.
Request: ASAP Champions
Paraiso was originally performed by the group smokey mountain that was formed by Ryan Cayabyab. He is also the composer of the song. I suggest you guys check the original version.
I'm fr SoCal! Biggest fan here!!! I looove my Filipino Fridays!!! YES!!!
Sassa (from The Voice Kids you watched) is all grown up and did a duet with Michael Pangilinan.

we apologise for the negative comments about Bini. the Filipino audience have very high standards with regards to music. auto tune, lip-sync, not singing live is considered disrespectful to the audience in our culture- which is why singing live wherever, even if not- so- in- tune is highly supported and respected by listeners. we are harsh critics ... and harsher critiques of ourselves.. please check out Filipino audience attending live concerts... 😅❤
I totally agree 😂
Do they(bini )lipsync?
Not a bini hater, as a pop girl group on the rise they are great and deserve support but it's a case of time and place...their songs/general sound dont offer much for a vocal agility analysis channel to dissect...there's any number of vocalists or bands to explore that deserve a spot in TGIFF that are more up R&J's alley, and bini is just kind of not it 😅
Very well said. Lipsynching is not highly admired in the Philippines.
No, I think they only used backtracks to support their voices because they were dancing while singing, but in their latest concerts in Vancouver, Canada, they did not use any backtracks.@@nenitabombase4896
Queendom singers on gma's all out sundays
Hi from lodi Ca. Im walking home from my kids school and glad to hear and watch you!
Bini - Na Na Na Dance and Vocal Practice
Love the Madrigal Singers! World class 👏 👏 👏
i will wait for the Filipino bride sings🙏
"HE KNOWS", an original wedding song performed by Almira Lat Trinidad (The Bride)
@@ZaidaBenavidez-b1o yes im excited😍
Please do react to the Divas of the Queendom. They’re all belters and great singers 🔥🔥🔥
Up
Yay! Finally, Kris Lawrence. Thank you!
I am happy you discovered Madrigal Singers ...they are world grand prix champions in competitions in Europe and other places many times over
RYSSI is about the insane TONE, RASP, EMOTING, VIBES. Her incredible ability to RIDE A BEAT, second to none. Her perfectly placed RUNS, always so tasteful. Her SONGWRITING. I've nominated songs that showcase all this. My faves are Kyla, Jona, Mori, Katrina, Gigi etc. But I think Ryssi is becoming my ultimate fave.
Thank you for doing Ryssi. Maraming maraming salamat po. ❤
Oh..Kris Lawrence😍
For me he is a highly underrated singer.
Also, he looks like he didn't age at all since I first watched him in that Ph singing competition over 2 decades ago!🥹
Kindly check the collaboration of Madrigal Singers and Morissette.... The song is " Pangarap ko ang Ibigin ka".. Thanks
Kris Lawrence cover of Versace on the floor is good also
My comment disappeared so typing it again. Hi guys, Gigi Vibes performed at the recent Wish 1075 10th Anniversary concert. I heard the official vids will be released by Wish around Aug 24th. She sang Bring Me To Life, She's Gone & Ill Be There. Thanks!
Oops it's probably not Wish 1075 who will be posting the videos but KDR House Music channel.
It will be released on Aug 25th 7pm. Gigi's performances are a must to watch: She's Gone, Bring Me To Life, Hero, & I'll Be There.
@HappyKat9 👋🏼
YES, YES, YES... It’s Filipino Fridays again. Love it.❤❤❤
The composer, Ryan Cayabyab, also wrote the music of quite a few Filipino musicals like Rama at Sita, Katy, Portrait of the artist as Filipino, etc.
I love Madz. I am so happy I was able to watch them sing live when they came to California 7 or 8 years ago.
MADZ best is their rendition of ERES TU in an Uruguay church, because its impromptu, and so few of them and yet it's super ethereal (will elevate ur soul), did sugest before with the link even, but not played...
Thank you, that's beautiful! Also try listening to an old video when the Madrigal singers rendered 'Eres Tu' in a church in Uruguay.
Supporting you from California ❤🇵🇭🇺🇸
Kris Lawrence song's are one of the favorite song to sing in Videoke.😊
Aegis please. Thank you. ☺
Imagine if each of them has his/her own music videos, you will have Filipino Fridays until 2099! Tay! 😁😍 But we your audience will be happier of course 👍👍♥️😍
