"Beyond music, one of the greatest privileges of my journey has been the opportunity to share the Word of God. My faith has guided me throughout my career, and being able to inspire and uplift others — not just through music, but through the message of God’s love — is something I hold close to my heart."

"I am grateful for every stage, every song, and every chance to make a difference. As long as I have the voice and the platform, I will continue doing what I love — honoring my craft, helping others grow, and giving glory to God."

"The next best thing I’m most thankful for is finding my Savior Jesus Christ. It has given me the love to serve and influence others to know Him. There’s so much need in mentoring young artists; and helping those who need Biblical counseling by sharing the Word of God."

"I have vowed to make Him first in my life."

"Through that, one can find true peace, wisdom, and strength. May we finally have the leaders we have always wanted -- leaders who are God-fearing and God-loving, and with genuine hearts to serve, putting the country's interest first. May we always remember that our greatest strength together as Filipinos [as a nation] is our resilience, faith, and love for one another."

"I'm not looking for (someone special). If the Lord gives something, it's up to him. I'm not looking for that."

"I sing it to the Lord! Why can't I relate, I can relate to that easily. I can only think of my exes, the good ones."

"The joy of the Lord is my strength. I told you, read the Bible. The word of the Lord is alive and active. It's sharper than the double-edged sword. 'The promises of the Lord, if we say it, it goes to our spirit, and moves. When I'm feeling tired, I just say that. Maybe if I don't have a relationship with our Lord, I've given up. I'm lazy." (Maybe if I didn't have a relationship with our Lord, I would have given up. I'd be lazy.)"

"I've always wanted an inspiration in my life. Before, when I didn't have a boyfriend, I couldn't sing. That's how it used to be. Now there's nothing like that. I have to give glory to the Lord for the talents He has given me."

"It's the very idea that both are staging it in “the season of love.”"

"Valentine's Day is not only for lovers or romantic love. We will also share songs with different perspectives on love and life."

"It’s about honoring the journey, the friendships, the music, and the quiet miracles that happen when people come together with purpose."

"By the grace of God, I have been given the many opportunities to remain active in the industry for over 45 years."

"Music has always been a way for me to express gratitude."

"When it’s shared with people you love — in a place that invites stillness and joy — that’s where the real magic happens."

"What made this album groundbreaking was its fusion of traditional and contemporary elements — ethnic instruments were masterfully incorporated, creating a unique Filipino sound."

"To record the patriotic song Ako Ay Pilipino, a powerful anthem that expresses the deep pride of being Filipino. The song resonated with people from all walks of life and, over time, became like a second national anthem, embraced by Filipinos regardless of political affiliation."

"I never liked the idea of joining singing contests."

"I believed that art should not be a competition. However, it was (singer-songwriter) Odette Quesada’s grandmother who persistently encouraged me to join. Eventually, I agreed — and the rest is history."

"One of the boldest and most meaningful milestones in my career (and) it was a decision that required my lifetime savings — earnings from my tours — but more than just a financial investment, it was an investment in the future of Filipino artists and live entertainment."

"I wanted to create a space that could serve as a home for our local performers, a theater, and live performances where artists could freely showcase their talents without the challenges of booking a hotel."

"It was both an honor and a privilege to be part of such a prestigious global event, representing the Philippines on an international stage."

"(It) made its way to the jazz charts, proving that Filipino artistry could hold its own alongside international acts."
