Regine Velasquez recounted her performance of “Ikaw Ang Lahat Sa Akin” in a concert with fellow singer Martin Nievera in 2003, and confessed that she cannot belt out songs like she used to.
The Asia’s Songbird admitted this while showing a video of her performance, through her Twitter page yesterday, Oct. 2.
“Just watched this. Medyo magaling pala ako dito (I was quite good here) but of course, this was 100 years ago,” she said. “I can’t do this anymore.”
