00:31Welcome to the program.

00:55the only Dulce
00:57Oh my God!
00:59Oh my God!
01:01I love you.
01:03I love you.
01:05Maraming salamat.
01:07Welcome to the program.
01:09Kumusta?
01:11Okay.
01:13Okay.
01:15Okay.
01:17Pero pupuntahan ko lang yung
01:19awiting.
01:21Ako ang nagwagi.
01:23Ako ang nasawi.
01:25Balik na tayo. Sorry.
01:27Itong awit na ito, you signed this
01:29in? The second MetroPOP.
01:31That's right. Yeah, in 1979.
01:33Alright. And then,
01:35we did not quite make it to the top.
01:37But, I was
01:39sent to represent our country
01:41to the Asian Singing Competition.
01:43That time, Tony Barrero and
01:45Cadore Valencia.
01:47Ang kanilang reason
01:49is that we need to send
01:51a singer to compete in a singing competition.
01:53Kaya, tayo napadala doon.
01:55And we won the grand prize. Of course.
01:57Noong sinabing hindi tayo mananalo
01:59kasi Tagalog kinanta. Sabi ko,
02:01ang hirap kasing kantahin na hindi mo dama
02:03na parang ipinilit yung
02:05English lyrics. So, dinesisyon
02:07kung kumanta ng nasawi.
02:09Pero nagwagi naman talaga.
02:11Kumusta yung relasyon na yun?
02:13Professional relationship between you
02:15and the great George Canseco?
02:17Well, of course, towards the end talaga,
02:19naging sobrang okay because noong
02:21nadalaw ko siya sa hospital.
02:23He surrendered his life to the Lord.
02:25And after a week, he
02:27passed away.
02:29Sigurado ako na
02:31safe siya talaga. He is in paradise.
02:33But the times
02:35after that, actually
02:37nagalit sila sa akin talaga because
02:39matigas na ang ulo ko.
02:41I'm a rebel. Sabing ganun because
02:43they were already planning for an album.
02:45Dinesign na yung album.
02:47Kaya lang ayaw kong pumayag
02:49para gawin yung mukha ko.
02:53Ayaw mong ipagalaw ang yung mukha
02:55because sinasadyas nila na?
02:57Para gawin kang maganda.
02:59Magparitoke?
03:01Ayaw ko talaga.
03:03Dinala ako sa Mahati Medical Center.
03:05Sinukat-sukatan ako ng ilo.
03:07Hindi ko alam to.
03:09Hindi ko alam.
03:11Tapos, dinala ako doon.
03:13Yung alam ko, hindi ka talaga prepared.
03:15Even siguro na dahil ayaw ko
03:17nga pumayag. So, dinala ako sa clinic.
03:19May ruler-ruler. Kasi noong nalang
03:21computer. Diba ngayon computer? Mamimili ka nalang
03:23anong ilong.
03:25May ruler ganyan. Tapos, sabi
03:27ano yan? Tapos drawing-drawing.
03:29Noong sabi, kasi nga
03:31i-aayos na nga. I ran away. Tumakbo talaga
03:33ako. Sabi ko, hindi po ako
03:35pwede talaga magpagalaw. Because I really believe
03:37boy, na kung dumating
03:39man ako rito, nakaabot ako ng Manila,
03:41it's because of the voice that God gave me.
03:43Ngayon, mayroon akong fear
03:45kapag ginalaw ang ilong, ay talagang
03:47magbabago, or ano man ang mangyari.
03:49That was your
03:51personal belief. Paano mo inaalagaan
03:53ang boses mo? Kasi sa tagal
03:55ng parahon na magkakilala tayo,
03:59andyan yung brilyo, andyan pa rin lahat.
04:01Talaga? Totoo. Praise God.
04:03But what about the technique? Yung paggamit ng
04:05boses? Paano ka natuto?
04:07Actually, hindi ko nga alam yung sinasabing technique.
04:09You know, I remember, Menchu
04:11Lauchenco, our very dear Menchu,
04:13this was in 1996, I remember.
04:15When she asked me, sabi niya sa akin, Dulce,
04:17you know, with the way
04:19you sing, yung style
04:21mong pagkanta, dapat
04:23sa panahon ito, yung 1996,
04:25from the time I started, sabi niya dapat wala ka ng
04:27boses. Sabi niya,
04:29anong technique mo? At that time,
04:31parang bago sa akin yung sound, anong
04:33technique mo? Kasi hindi ko alam
04:35kung ano yung technique. So, I just
04:37sing. Kung ano lang talaga yung
04:39lalabas, yun lang. Tapos,
04:41una ko talagang vocal coach, actually, was the mother
04:43of Cecil Azarcon.
04:45Minda Azarcon.
04:47Tapos, kaya lang daw ako dinala
04:49sa kanya para turuan akong
04:51hinaan yung boses ko.
04:53Kasi masyado ako maingay. Yung parang
04:55everything was belting, belting, belting.
04:57Sabi ko,
04:59hindi ko alam na
05:01kailangan merong mga soft.
05:03But siguro, dahil nga sa bukid
05:05noon, parang gusto ko lang
05:07marinig ako ng mga tao.
05:09Buga ko ng buga kasi,
05:11nagpa-practice ako sa puno na Bayaba.
05:13So, sa ibabaw ng tangke. Tapos,
05:15wala kaming
05:17tele, wala lahat. Wala TV,
05:19radio, whatever.
05:21Saan ito, Duce? Para lamang sa mga
05:23kabataan? Sa Villa Bulsita,
05:25Bulacao, Pardo, Cebu.
05:27Malapit kami sa ilog, sa sapaanan ng
05:29bundok. So, pag napapatulog ako
05:31ng younger kong mga kapatid
05:33na nasa Duyan, kanta ako ng
05:35kanta. Nasa harap talaga ako ng bintana
05:37para gusto ko may manood sa akin.
05:39And because I thought,
05:41lahat noon ng tao ay
05:43kumakanta talaga.
05:45Yan ang nasa isip mo? Yan ang nasa isip ko.
05:47Kasi parang lahat kumakantay, lalo sa Visaya,
05:49lalo sa Cebu. So, parang
05:51kailangan kong pagbutihin o mag-ingay ako
05:53para marinig nila ako
05:55at magpansin ako. And you love to be with
05:57people and you wanted an audience
05:59for your performances. Yes.
06:01One of your biggest hits.
06:03Okay. Paano?
06:05Ano ang kwento? Originally,
06:07the Paano was recorded by Miss Pilita Corrales
06:09and sinulat
06:11ni Doming Amarillo, lyrics by George Canseco.
06:13Pero ito yung Paano ang
06:15naging pinaka parang, that time,
06:17jukebox hit. Ito yung pinaka
06:19jukebox hit ko, yung Paano.
06:21Bawat kwento ko naman ganyan, andong kaya eh.
06:25Ang hihirap kang mag-i-interview eh.
06:27Sabi ko, alam ko lahat ang kasagutan.
06:29Pero ito eh, okay.
06:31Mga wagi at
06:33mga sawi sa kwento ng pag-ibig,
06:35ano yung pinaka
06:37mahalagang leksyon
06:39na natutunan mo pagdating sa pag-ibig?
06:41Mahalagang leksyon?
06:45Kasi ayoko rin sabihin, kasi yung
06:47wag mo ibigay lahat,
06:49magtira ka na sa sarili mo,
06:51laging sinasabi sa'yo, kasi
06:53magtira ka naman para sa sarili mo,
06:55lagi kang todo bigay, todo bigay.
06:57But,
06:59ano ang kwenta ng love
07:01kung hindi mo rin na madibigay ang lahat.
07:05So, kung ano man yung mga kasawi
07:07ang nangyayari, kung ano man,
07:09wala rin akong sinisisi.
07:11Wala rin akong pinagsisisihan.
07:13Nangyari ang mga nangyari.
07:15And, para sa akin,
07:17ituloy mo ang buhay,
07:19bumangon ka,
07:21bumagsak, bumangon, bumagsak, bumangon,
07:23bangon, ituloy ang buhay.
07:25Just move on.
07:27I totally get you. Kasi yung Paano as a song,
07:29it's after the breakup.
07:33Trying to move on.
07:35Pick up the pieces.
07:37Pero, tuloy ang laban.
07:39At yan ang kwento kasi ng buhay mo.
07:43Paulit-ulit.
07:45Pero,
07:49hindi ka nanatiling
07:51nakadapa.
07:53Lumaban kayo.
07:55Laging laban.
07:57Lalo na kapag meron kang mga anak
07:59na kailangan mong
08:03nandyan ka, you're a pole.
08:05Ikaw yung pwede nilang hawakan.
08:07Lalo na at mga bata pa sila.
08:09Kailangan mong
08:11iayos sa mga bagay.
08:13Kahit na ano pa yung mga bumagsak, mga nawala.
08:15Kailangan mong gumawa uli
08:17ng panibagong pillar
08:19para doon sila
08:21tutungo, alam nila anong
08:23mangyayari, alam nila anong
08:25hawakan nila, alam nila anong gagawin nila
08:27from there.
08:29Pagdating sa pag-ibig,
08:31kumusta ka ngayon?
08:33Ang pag-ibig ko nalang si Lord.
08:35Na sobra-sobra?
08:37Sobra-sobra. Kasi parang
08:39sa edad ko ito boy,
08:41parang tama no?
08:43Di ba?
08:45Parang kapoy na uwi.
08:49Pero, kung meron kang leksyon
08:51na ibabahagi sa'yo yung mga anak,
08:53mga lalaki, men,
08:55anong sasabihin mo?
08:57Sinasabi ko sa kanila,
08:59huwag silang padalos-dalos.
09:01Kasi pinagpipray mo sila, di ba?
09:03Of course,
09:05since I learned how to pray,
09:07that's every waking moment of your life.
09:09You pray for each one of your children.
09:13Alam na nga ako yan.
09:15Lagi kong pinapaalala yan.
09:17You have to pray about it.
09:19You have to ask the Lord.
09:21I am praying for the Lord
09:23to prepare somebody for them.
09:25Kasi kung ang Diyos ang pipili,
09:27parang tingin ko wala nang mali, di ba?
09:29Huwag silang gumaya sa akin
09:31na ako ihulog lang ng hulog noon
09:33sa in-love ng in-love, di ba?
09:35Tapos ako lugi, di ba?
09:37Kung anik-anik ang mga kinukuha sa akin.
09:39Malalapad ako sa bakla.
09:41Sabi nila kasi,
09:43I wanna give.
09:45Ganun ako.
09:47E wala, yan na nga yun.
09:49Talagang nagmahal ka
09:51kung nasa sitwasyon na
09:53kung kailangan mong maging ikaw na rin
09:55man of the house, ginagawa mo.
09:57So, nangyari yun.
09:59Huwag na sanang maulit sa mga anak ko.
10:01I can listen to you forever.
10:03But let's do fast talk.

13:17It's a celebration
13:19because for the 30 years
13:21of God's faithfulness
13:23sa CBN and sa aping lahat
13:25and I've been part of

14:27Yes, they can get their
14:29tickets. Donations to
14:31CBNAsia.org
14:33slash Beyond Measure.
14:35My last fast talk question was
14:37I am Dulce and I want to be remembered
14:39as... Actually
14:41I don't need to be remembered.
14:43I just want to remember Jesus.
14:45Only Jesus because
14:47Jesus is my
14:49all in all voice. I will not be
14:51here. I won't be able to survive kung wala
14:53ang Panginoon sa buhay ko. That's it.
14:55Paano mo nahanap si Jesus?
14:57It was when
14:59yun yung matindi talagang
15:01situation din
15:03during my unang diloob yung nangyari
15:05sa buhay. When I
15:07nung hinarap ko yung salamin
15:09sabi ko sa salamin
15:11sabi ko
15:13kung totoong may Diyos, kung
15:15nadyan ka talaga, sabi ko ayusin mo ko
15:17alisin mo ko sa kinalalagyang ko
15:19hindi ko na kaya.
15:21When I said hindi ko na kaya
15:23meron pala ako huling sinabi at
15:25magsisilbi ako sa iyo. Let's talk about
15:27the song of your life.
15:29Ano ang song
15:31ng buhay mo? I said
15:33perhaps
15:35love because every time I sing that
15:37it's like parang ako nagsusumbong sa awit.
15:39Diba pag yung pagod na pagod ka na
15:41parang and madalas
15:43when you do a show it's always like parang asahan
15:45nila bibirit ka. There are songs
15:47na parang kailangan mong
15:49nakaporma talaga but this is one song
15:51that I truly sing na
15:53parang
15:55parang syang
15:57hiding place.
15:59It's a sanctuary.
16:01If you were to do
16:03ito hypothetical na naman to
16:05a final concert
16:07final concert
16:09your final song
16:11aside from perhaps
16:13love. Naalala ko yung
16:15meron kasi akong favorite na Cebuano song.
16:17Gusto ko nga sya
16:19at kinanta ko nga sya
16:21before, even before I knew the
16:23composer who became actually my mentor
16:25the father of Amapola Cabase
16:27Si Manny Cabase. He was my mentor
16:29entitled Pataying Buhi
16:31meaning living dead. And then
16:33Levi Celerio
16:35wrote a Tagalog version
16:37of the song. It was
16:39never recorded but I'm the only one who was singing it.
16:41I realized just now
16:43na kahit
16:45saan ka nakarating
16:47and
16:49you are where you are today. You're one
16:51of the most important singers
16:53in the Philippine music industry.
16:55It's just so
16:57inspiring na bumabalik ka
16:59parin kung saan ka nagsimula.
17:01When you were 8 years old
17:03your first amateur
17:05singing contest.
17:07Hindi ka parin nawala kung paano
17:09umuwi kung saan ka nanggaling.
17:11And that's I think the magic
17:13of why Dulce is Dulce.
17:15Maraming maraming.
17:19Maraming maraming salamat.
17:21Maraming salamat po.
17:23Salamat!
17:25Lai tay kapuso maraming salamat po
17:27sa inyong pagpapatuloy sa anin
17:29sa inyong mga tahanan at puso araw-araw.
17:31Be kind. Make your nanay and tare proud.
17:33Say thank you. And do one good thing
17:35a day and make this world a better place.
17:37Goodbye for now and God bless.
