Thursday, April 17, 2008 Gretchen to perform live at SM Bacolod
CONTROVERSIAL actress Gretchen Barretto will perform live to promote her "Unexpected" album on May 3, 4 p.m., at the Northwing Event Centre of SM City Bacolod.
Last February, La Greta opened new doors as she launched her first-ever album entitled Unexpected.
True to form, nobody expected Gretchen to come up with a full studio album and everyone is pleasantly surprised because one of the things that people close to her know is that she's a good singer. Now, she's sharing that talent with the world.
"Ang sarap nang pagtanggap ng tao, very warm! I just feel so loved and great. It's great to be back!" said Gretchen. The public has been awed and intrigued by her roller-coaster life. Now to sum her life is her album.
"I feel that I need to share with everybody kung ano ang naramdaman ko this past year. Ang buhay ko, ang puso ko, nasa CD na 'to. Wala na kayong pwedeng itanong kay Gretchen Barretto after you listen to this CD. You unlock my heart when you listen to this."
Unexpected contains 12 tracks of unforgettable songs as dished out by Gretchen in her signature vocals, with the carrier single 'Please Don't Ask Me.' Other songs include 'Fly Me To the Moon,' 'A House is Not a Home,' 'Moon River,' 'An Affair To Remember,' 'More Than You'll Ever Know,' 'More,' 'I Will,' 'An Unexpected Song,' 'All The Things You Are,' 'Love Me For What I Am' and the only Tagalog cut 'Ikaw Lamang.'
With so many descriptions that Gretchen gave in summing up the album, most think this is probably what best describes her now: "A child at heart. I am a dreamer. I believe in fairy tales still and I believe in happy endings."
Unexpected is distributed by Star Records. (Press release)
