Christian Bautista sing Jose Mari Chan
Asia’s Romantic Balladeer Christian Bautista releases his first album under Universal Records entitled “Romance Revisited: The Love Songs Of Jose Mari Chan,” which turned Gold in just two weeks!
Produced by Platinum Producer Ito Rapadas, the 19-track concept album contains Christian’s rendition of songs popularized by OPM luminary and Double Diamond Artist Jose Mari Chan. The album also includes Christian’s collaboration with OPM’s biggest names – Regine Velasquez,Lani Misalucha, Sarah Geronimo, and Jose Mari Chan.
The carrier single “Tell Me Your Name” is currently one of the most requested songs on FM stations in the Philippines. Its music video featuring Thai model-actress Paula Taylor has just debuted on MYX, the leading music channel in the country where Christian is also the Celebrity VJ for the month of October.
The young singer’s recording career was established early on with the release of Christian’s phenomenal first single “The Way You Look At Me,” culled from his Quadruple Platinum, self-titled debut album, which was later released in Indonesia (where it was certified Quadruple Platinum), and other Asian countries. He has also done original music videos, his own television special aired over RCTI, the country’s largest television network, and various brand endorsements all over Indonesia – making Christian a certified Asian Pop Idol!
Plans in releasing Christian’s newest album in Asia is already in the pipeline. Right after its release in the Philippines, Indonesia’s biggest record label PT Aquarius Records (which also distributed Jose Mari Chan’s “Constant Change” in the ’80s) will release Christian’s album. For the Indonesian and Malaysian editions, Christian has recorded a duet entitled “Ngiti” (translated in Bahasa) with Malaysian female recording star Noryn Aziz. Album release in other Asian countries will follow suit.
