Sarah Geronimo’s Christmas wish: ‘Makasama ang mahal ko sa buhay habang ako’y nabubuhay’
Sarah Geronimo marked her comeback to the stage of the weekend variety show “ASAP Natin ‘To” with a performance of her single “Dati-Dati,” and a wish to be with her loved ones on Christmas.
After her song-and-dance number, the singer-actress spoke about how being on the show gives her a fulfilling experience as a performer, as seen on ABS-CBN Entertainment’s YouTube channel on Sunday, Dec. 11.
Geronimo then disclosed how “Dati-Dati” was written by drawing inspiration from the sadness she felt reminiscing about “simple joys” and “simplicity of life.” She also addressed her ASAP family as well as her fans, dubbed as Popsters, and thanked them for their unwavering support.
“Maraming, maraming salamat po sa aking (Thank you so much to my) ASAP family for allowing me to promote my new original songs,” she said.
“Medyo natagalan po pero nandito naman po ako. Maraming, maraming salamat po sa muling pagtanggap (It may have taken some time but I’m here now. Thank you so much for accepting me again),” she added.

Geronimo returned to the variety show last July but all her performances prior to “Dati-Dati” were recorded outside the studio. Geronimo’s comeback to the ASAP stage was confirmed to the public last Dec. 6.
Meanwhile, Geronimo addressed her parents through an open letter in October, with the singer extending her apologies for recent “life decisions” that affected their relationship.
While Geronimo did not mention anything specifically in her letter, it can be noted that the singer-actress’s relationship with her mother turned sour after her marriage to actor Matteo Guidicelli.
