00:00This song, you signed this in?
00:08The second Metro Pop.
00:10That's right.
00:11Yeah, in 1979.
00:12All right.
00:13And then, we did not quite make it to the top, but I was sent to represent our country
00:19to the Asian Singing Competition, that time, Tony Barrero and Cadre Valencia, their reason
00:27is that we need to send a singer to compete in a singing competition, and we won the grand
00:34prize.
00:35Of course.
00:36So, I decided to sing at home, but it really worked out.
00:49How was that relationship, professional relationship, between you and the great George Canseco?
00:54Well, of course, towards the end, it was really okay, because when he got sick, I took him
01:01to the hospital.
01:02He surrendered his life to the Lord, and after a week, he passed away, and I was sure that
01:09he was really safe, that he was in paradise.
01:12But the times after that, actually, they were really mad at me, because my head was hard.
01:19I was, I'm a rebel, because they were already planning for an album, the album was already
01:25signed, that's why I didn't agree to do my face.
01:30So, you didn't want to do your face, because they were already planning for you to be beautiful.
01:37To be a beauty queen.
01:38Yes.
01:39I really didn't want to.
01:41They brought me to Mahati Medical Center, they measured my nose.
01:45I didn't know this.
01:46Yes, I didn't tell you this.
01:47Yes, I didn't know this.
01:48Then, they brought me there.
01:51You know, you're not really prepared.
01:53Even, maybe, because I didn't want to give up, so they brought me to the clinic.
01:57They have a ruler, because back then, it was just a computer, right?
01:59Now, it's a computer, you just have to choose which nose.
02:01So, now, they have a ruler like that.
02:04Then, they said, what's that?
02:06Then, drawing, drawing.
02:07Then, they said, they'll fix it.
02:09No, I ran away.
02:10I really ran away.
02:11I said, no, I really can't move.
02:14Because I really believe, boy, that even if I came here, I reached Manila, it's because
02:19of the voice that God gave me.
02:21Now, I have a fear that if I move my nose, it will really change, or anything will happen.
02:27That was your personal belief.
02:29How do you take care of your voice?
02:32Because for a long time, since we've known each other, the brilliance is still there,
02:37everything is still there.
02:39Really?
02:40It's true.
02:41Praise God.
02:42But, what about the technique?
02:43How did you learn how to use your voice?
02:45Actually, I don't know what technique you're talking about.
02:47You know, I remember, Menchu Lauchenko, our very dear Menchu, this was in 1996, I remember.
02:52When she asked me, she said to me, Dulce, you know, with the way you sing, your style
02:59of singing, at this time, in 1996, from the time I started, she said, you shouldn't have
03:05a voice.
03:06She said, what technique do you use?
03:08At that time, the sound was new to me.
03:11What technique do you use?
03:12Because I didn't know what technique.
03:14So, I just sing.
03:15Whatever comes out, that's it.
03:18My first vocal coach was actually the mother of Cecil Azarcon, Minda Azarcon.
03:24I was brought to her so that she can teach me how to lower my voice because I was too
03:31loud.
03:32Everything was belting, belting, belting.
03:35I said, I don't know if there's a need for soft, soft.
03:41But maybe because I was in the fields at that time, I just wanted to hear people.
03:46You just sang in the fields?
03:47I just sang in the fields.
03:48I practiced in the trees of Bayaba, on top of a tank.
03:52We didn't have a TV, radio, whatever.
03:59Where was this, Dulce?
04:00Just for the youth.
04:01In Villa Bulsita, Bulacau, Pardo, Cebu.
04:04We were close to the river, to the foot of the mountain.
04:08So when my younger siblings would put me to sleep on the hill, I would sing.
04:13I would sing in front of the window so that I could have someone watching me.
04:17And because I thought, all the people back then were really singing.
04:22That's what was on your mind?
04:23That's what was on my mind because everyone was singing, especially in Visayas, especially
04:27in Cebu.
04:28So I felt like I needed to do something good or be loud so that they can hear me and notice
04:33me.
04:34You wanted to be with people and you wanted an audience.
05:04Yes.
05:05Yes.
05:06Yes.
05:07Yes.
05:08Yes.
05:09Yes.
05:10Yes.
05:11Yes.
05:12Yes.
05:13Yes.
05:14Yes.
05:15Yes.
05:16Yes.
05:17Yes.
05:18Yes.
05:19Yes.
05:20Yes.
05:21Yes.
05:22Yes.
05:23Yes.
05:24Yes.
05:25Yes.
05:26Yes.
05:27Yes.
05:28Yes.
05:29Yes.
05:30Yes.
05:31Yes.
05:32Yes.
