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.

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

13:27the 700 Club

13:29and it airs in JMA for the longest time.

13:31I was co-hosting

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.
