Hirit ni Gary Valenciano kay Martin Nievera: He was forever my competitor…people will compare us all the time
MULING pinatunayan nina Gary Valenciano at Julie Anne San Jose na wala ng isyu ng network war sa pagitan ng ABS-CBN at GMA 7.
Sanib-pwersa ang Kapuso at Kapamilya stars para sa kauna-unahan nilang collaboration, para sa kantang “Di Ka Akin” under Universal Records.
Dream come true para kina Gary at Julie Anne ang magkaroon ng duet dahil nga imposible silang mag-share ng stage para sa isang bonggang performance.
Alam naman ng lahat na mainstay ng “ASAP Natin ‘To” si Gary V habang regular namang napapanood si Julie Anne sa “All-Out Sundays” (AOS) kaya isang bonggang-bonggang treat sa kanilang fans ang kanilang collab.

Sabi ni Gary sa nakaraang media launch ng “Di Ka Akin,” kahit kailan ay hindi naging isyu sa kanya ang network war.
“I’ll share with you competition that kept me on my toes for many years. It wasn’t station affiliation, it was with this guy named Martin Nievera.
“He was forever my competitor! Now, the thing is, he’s a balladeer and I do a lot of upbeat songs and people will compare us all the time.
“And even if we were different, it was the kind of competition that brought out the best in us,” pahayag ni Mr. Pure Energy.
“I think it’s the same thing with AOS and ASAP, we’re not looking over our shoulders para makita namin kung ano ang ginagawa nila.
“I think they are also doing the same thing, they just know there is another show on the other side and we just have to be on our toes all the time.
“I don’t care what anybody says, but at least in my heart, I’m not in ASAP to show who’s better.
“I’m in ASAP to be at my best. And if, in a subconscious way, we do that to the other artist in AOS, it means we’re actually helping each other without knowing it,” paliwanag pa niya.
“But it’s important we have a healthy competition. Otherwise, we get lax, we get overconfident, we can sit back and settle with ‘Okay na yun.’
“Hindi puwede sa ASAP yun, ‘Uy, puwede na iyan.’ Di puwede yun. Then why? Kasi nga may AOS to keep you on your toes all time, but it’s healthy.
“When Julie Anne comes up with something great, ‘Nakita mo yun? Ang galing ‘no?’ We’re like that, that’s just the way we are and I think that’s just healthy,” katwiran pa niya.
Isa pang Kapuso singer na nakakatrabaho niya ay si Christian Bautista, “I’m really close to Christian, we’re both officers of OPM, I think that’s what it is.”
Kuwento pa ng veteran singer-actor magkasama sila ni Julie Anne sa Univeral Records pero ngayon lang sila nagkaroon ng collab. Aniya pa, ang “Di Ka Akin” ay iba sa mga teleserye theme songs na pinasikat niya.
“When I first heard about it, I didn’t hear the song yet. The first thing that came in my mind was ‘Game!’
“Because, you know, when we talk about the artists at the level of Julie Anne, these are artists who don’t come up with a song for the sake of coming up with a song.
“They come up with something that stems from somewhere, and I found out that she’s gonna write the song.
“When Angeli [Pangilinan-Valenciano, Gary’s wife] sent me the song, when we heard it, we were like, ‘Wow!’
“It wasn’t like, ‘Is it nice or not nice?’ It was more, like, ‘Bagay ka ba sa ganito, Gary, o hindi?’
“Kasi it’s a love song. How do you put somebody her age and my age together doing a love song like this? But things worked out, it really worked out,” sey pa ni Gary.

Dagdag pa niya tungkol sa duet nila ni Julie Anne, “When I heard the song, it was just a matter of time, which was a problem because both of us have completely different schedules.
“I was touring, I left for the U.S. She had the song ready and she was also doing stuff, she did Limitless. It’s award-winning pa.
“You can tell it’s an example of how much an artist like her put into what they believe in. I didn’t want to just say yes. Sige, let’s just do it for the sake of ‘Hey, it’s something new.’
“So what I did, I presented it to Mon Faustino as an arranger, very flexible kind of arranger.
“He did an initial arrangement. And I told Julie Anne, ‘Listen, if there’s anything you want changed in this, you just say so.’
“Again, being the artist that she is, she said what she wanted. So it went back to Mon Faustino, and he redid it. And then next thing I knew, I had the music na here in this music studio.
“Of course, medyo ako lang mag-isa ang nandito sa bahay when I’m recording it. All the lights were dim, it’s just me hearing the voice of Julie Anne because she already has it recorded. And for me, that, in a nutshell, is how everything came together,” aniya pa.
