INAMIN ni Morissette Amon na madalas kapag may mga bonggang event at show siyang dadaluhan ay nagkakasakit siya.
Noong nagsisimula pa lang siyang gumawa ng sariling pangalan sa music industry, talagang inaatake siya ng nerbiyos na ang kasunod na nga ay ang kalaban ng lahat, ang stress.
“Tuwing nagkakaroon ng malaking event, nagkakasakit ako. Siyempre that affects yung boses ko or ngongo ako, mababa yung boses ko or stressed ako, mabilis ako ma-stress.
“Even yung mga grand finals ng Himig Handog oh my gosh ang dami kong pinagdaanan na mga moments na ganu’n,” pahayag ng Kapamilya Birit Queen sa nakaraang mediacon para sa launching ng bagong version ng “Shine.”
Sa mga ganitong pagkakataon, talagang kailangan niyang magpaka-professional. Kaya kung minsan kahit masama ang pakiramdam niya ay pinupuntahan pa rin niya ang natanguang commitment.
“In moments like that, I just really try to tell myself na kapit lang, you can do this.
“There’s so many moments na ganun na I’m in top shape pero I really have to pull through because I’m not just thinking about myself but I’m also thinking about the people who bought to tickets to watch the show or even everyone na nag-fly in to watch the show live.
“So there’s so many other things t consider rather than just myself. Pero we just really have to pull through at the end of the day,” kuwento ni Morissette na siyang napili ng Star Music para i-revive ang “Shine” na pinasikat ni Regine Velasquez.
Samantala, natanong din ang biriterang singer kung ano ang maituturing niyang best moment sa kanyang career.
“I think it was when I was also asked by Star Music to interpret for Himig Handog yung ‘Akin Ka Na Lang’. Kasi I remember nung nasa Cebu pa kami, me and my family.
“And siyempre marami namang mga events or shows, pero sabi namin nun iba talaga pag may original song ka. So when Star Music reached out to me, I was super happy at that time, I had just finished The Voice (bilang contestant).
“I did not make it to the grand finals. Hindi ako nanalo pero in-open pa rin ni Star Music yung doors nila to make me a part of their family and to ask me to interpret ‘Akin ka Na Lang’.
“It really opened a lot of opportunities not just for me but also even kay kuya Kiko Salazar who is the songwriter.
“Although there were already a lot of moments that happened in my career before then, pero I think what really lifted me high a little more was being able to put out a original song,” pahayag ng dalaga.
Samantala, timing na timing naman daw ang offer ng Star Music na kantahin niya ang 25th anniversary version ng “Shine” composed by Trina Belarmide and produced by Jonathan Manalo.
“This year kasi, I’m also celebrating my 10th year anniversary naman in the industry so it’s just super, super timely na nangyayari ito lahat despite the pandemic also.
“I think what’s making me shine right now is right now nasa point ako as an artist na gusto ko mag-grow,” ani Mori.
Bukod dito, gusto rin ng singer na makagawa pa ng ibang projects ngayong taon, “So I’ve also been trying to write music, even co-producing also. I think yun din yung nagda-drive sa akin lately to really grow more as an artist and hindi yung mag-se-settle, yung kakanta lang.
“I’m also happy because during the process of recording this it was very collaborative, siyempre si kuya Jonathan naman talaga pag mag-re-record as ini-input niya lagi yung perfection.
“So parang sa end ko, it was more of making the song my own and how the song is true to me. It’s really an anthem song for a lot of people including myself kaya parang I’m just really grateful and blessed for this opportunity,” lahad pa ni Morissette.
