00:00 Sorry, we're already stretching here.
00:02 Vocalization, mic test, all of that.
00:05 He's been doing all of that for months, memes, social media, right Susan?
00:09 Oh my, Joshua, memes are coming out one after another.
00:13 The last ones, to remind us that he's about to show his face,
00:16 -he's still at the beach, right? -Germans.
00:19 Here it is, Susan.
00:20 -Not just memes, -Not just memes,
00:21 -There. -eggs.
00:23 And not just a peek,
00:24 my fellow viewers, live on the first hit,
00:28 Jose Marie Chan!
00:30 Good morning, good morning.
00:32 Don't stand up, the cameraman is having a hard time.
00:34 Okay, how was your Bear Month, Uncle Joe?
00:39 It's always exciting, you know?
00:42 How nice to be associated with the longest Christmas season in the world.
00:47 And I'm thankful, we're here on the first hit,
00:50 we always have time on September 1st.
00:53 -He's already on the first hit. -He's already on the first stop.
00:56 I said it's a tradition.
00:58 But Uncle Joe, how do you feel about being a meme?
01:01 Well, some of those memes are a little bit irreverent.
01:04 Which one?
01:09 They have an image of Saint Joseph pulling the donkey,
01:15 Mother Mary is seated on the donkey, she's pregnant.
01:18 So you call it Jose Marie Chan.
01:21 -Oh, right? -Right.
01:24 -Jose Marie Chan. -Chan.
01:25 Your latest one is when Miguel is getting married.
01:29 "Sing, sing!"
01:31 And sometimes, they call me Chanta Cross.
01:34 Chanta Cross.
01:36 Uncle Joe, here's your Christmas song, "In Our Hearts".
01:38 It's a favorite of Filipinos,
01:40 but there's another Christmas song that you want to dedicate to Filipinos.
01:44 Uncle Joe?
01:45 Okay, so I want to wish you all an advanced Merry Christmas.
01:49 And may the coming year bring you good health,
01:52 prosperity, and joy in our hearts.
01:55 Thank you.
01:57 Best wish.
01:59 Do you have a song for Filipinos?
02:01 Your acapella?
02:03 -Your new Christmas song? -Title?
02:07 "Pagdating ng Pasko"
02:09 "Pagdating ng Pasko"
02:11 "Hali na talawin ang Lola't Lolo"
02:15 "Ang nagmamahalan, nagbibigayan ng mga regalo"
02:21 -You composed that? -Yes.
02:23 -You're so happy. -I'm looking forward to it.
02:25 -Let's look forward to it. -Uncle Joe is so beautiful.
02:27 -We'll learn that song. -It's gonna be another classic.
02:31 I hope I can bring free CDs.
02:33 -We'll look forward to it. -Don't worry, you'll come back.
02:37 But that's a good memory for the Lolo't Lolo.
02:43 We also posted on our Facebook page if you have a message for our viewers.
02:51 From Nerissa Santos, Altajeros,
02:53 "Thank you for your songs, they lighten our feelings and give us energy."
02:59 "I'm excited for Christmas even if life is hard."
03:01 Uncle Joe!
03:03 Thank you, thank you.
03:05 It's a blessing indeed.
03:07 God teaches us that we should share the blessings that we have received.
03:13 We should share our blessings because there are so many of our brothers and sisters who are poor.
03:19 That's true.
03:21 But that's not the only message for you.
03:23 Uncle Joe, Jenilyn Aquino said,
03:25 "Your songs are so pleasant to listen to, especially for Christmas."
03:31 "When she hears them, she feels Christmas."
03:35 It's a sign.
03:37 The holidays are coming.
03:39 Uncle Joe also has a message.
03:41 Lorna Makapagal-Morva said,
03:43 "Ever since she was a child, she was already aware that Christmas songs are Christmas in our hearts."
03:49 "She remembers singing them to put her brother to sleep."
03:55 -She sings them every Christmas. -Yes.
03:59 She sings them every day.
04:01 She sings them every day.
04:03 -She sings them every day. -She sings them every day.
04:05 What is it? "Girls and Boys" or "Boys and Girls"?
04:07 I'm just trying.
04:09 -She said, "Girls and Boys." -Girls and Boys.
04:13 -That's a good one. -That's a good one.
04:15 Lorna, that's perfect.
04:17 Let's complete your day.
04:19 Thank you for watching. Thank you, Mensaib.
04:21 Let's put your pocket back to sleep.

04:27 The stage is yours.
04:29 -Thank you. -Thank you so much.
04:31 Make some noise for Uncle Joe!
04:33 [cheering]
04:35 Whenever I see girls and boys
04:54 Selling lanterns on the streets
04:57 I remember the child
05:00 In the manger as he sleeps
05:04 Wherever there are people
05:07 Giving gifts, exchanging cards
05:10 I believe that Christmas
05:14 Is truly in their hearts
05:17 Let's light our Christmas trees
05:20 For a bright tomorrow

05:27 And all are warm in God

05:57 Be always in our hearts
06:01 In every prayer and every song
06:08 The community unites
06:11 Celebrating the birth
06:15 Of our Savior Jesus Christ
06:18 Let love like that star light
06:21 On that first Christmas morn
06:24 Lead us back to the manger
06:28 Where Christ the Child was born
06:31 So come let us rejoice
06:34 Come and sing a Christmas carol
06:38 With one big joyful voice
06:41 Proclaim the name of the Lord
06:46 Everybody sing!
