30 years in business, 30 years of songwriting, hit after hits, unknown artists who became popular upon interpreting his songs, a magic that never last, no formula, no fabulous electrifying sounds, just only using his heart, the man behind the songs that became the favorite of all Filipino masses … Mr Vehnee Saturno, a truly world class Pinoy talent!
I was honored to be with Vehnee and to come out with this mini tribute for him on his 30th year in the show business. It was 18th of June 2010 when Vehnee & Ladine Roxas went to Singapore for a special holiday, a tribute had been conceptualized to do this mini concert participated by the Prime Talents of Music & Arts for Real Talents. Hit songs that brought the fame of Jessa Saragoza, Ella Mae Saison, Sarah Geronimo, Martin Nievera to name a few, brought to a Live Music at the Blowfish International Bar at Orchard, Singapore by FAS Filipino Idol Champions (Asher, Edz, Rodel & Grace), 2008 WCOPA Junior World Champion (Catherine Loria), 2001 Voice of Asia Grand Champion (Ladine Roxas) and the man himself behind those hit songs and successful Filipino artists of today (Mr. Vehnee Saturno). A full packed crowd witness the concert accompanied ‘LIVE’ by M-A-R-T Sessionista headed by Gilbert Nogales on drums, Vinnie Gonzaga on Keyboards, Paul Bensi on Rhythm Guitar and Warren Mamangun on Bass Guitar.
Vehnee delighted the crowd with his own rendition of the popular song ‘Be My Lady’ in a Jazz arrangement and the crowd had even more attached with the songs popularized by Willie Revillame in the noontime show WOWOWEE.
The show went well, the audience was even asking for more, but the night had been ended with the finale song ‘ISANG LAHI’ (One Nation) to commemorate the Philippine Independence Day Celebration and to remind all Filipinos that the Philippines is a nation with people united as one, taking care each other and hoping that good things will always going to happen …
