The statement "Filipinos love to sing" is an example of an extreme understatement. Some folks may call it a sport, some call it a hobby, but for us, it's a right of passage, a way of survival, a way of life. One of the most successful brands of karaoke and audio systems in the country is Platinum Karaoke. They held a very big launch for their latest product called ALPHA 2 which is a 4K Smart Premium Karaoke system that's got several modern features in tow.
The first is Sing With Me where you can jam to your favorite songs with friends and family, Video Recording if you plan to make memories of your fun session, Pro Score for those who are extra competitive and want the device to score you, Custom Mic Effects for those who want to sound different, and Dream 5715 Sound so you can listen to realistic sound and playback. In order for them to make sure people experience it first hand, they got several machines out attached to huge TV's at the middle of Market!Market! mall in BGC so folks could try it out before purchasing it with a whopping 30 percent discount (only for 2 days, but it won't be much if you visit their branch at the 3rd floor and ask!).
During the event, they had several singing champions perform on stage, including Lucas Garcia who was adored by the public (his runs were lethal!). Then came the best part where they introduced the one and only Crystal Voice of Asia, Sheryn Regis who is also their newest brand ambassador!
Here's part of our interview with her on video:
She also had several of her fans come up on stage to sing with her later in the evening. She also took time to sing with the ALPHA 2 model just so you could feel how it sounds like when there's a world class singer doing it. I even heard some of the media folks try it after the show, they didn't hold back despite it being in the middle of Market!Market! LOL!
Sheryn by the way also sang some of her top hits. It was fun because people were amazed that she could still do it after all these years. She shared how it was hard to do that after her operation and do some gigs after a few months, despite doctors asking her to refrain from singing. She feels so blessed that after that ordeal, she got her groove back, and sings so beautifully despite some small changes she noticed with her voice.
They ended the event with a fun dance number, everyone joined in. I found people genuinely having smiles on their faces because they enjoyed the concert and the launch. Now go get those Karaoke units and audio devices, I've seen them making folks experience REAL karaoke. It's time you should too!
