So you know Filipinos has another side with regards to music. That Filipinos are not just very good with power ballads, we have more to offer. Thank you for taking your time reacting to this video. Cheers!
Rasec Gacayan This performance is a copy of Al Jarreau’s version of the original Chick Corea song. So no, it’s already a third layer iteration, not “another filipino side”.
Ok this singer is gorgeous. A true feast for the eyes. That’s a great start. I can see him in Vegas or any famous classy club. What a talented and fun performer. Another fabulous artist from the Philippines. So talented. He must already be a big star somewhere hopefully. I would pay to see and hear him perform. Terrific - 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💁🏻

@@VocalStudioYAZIK Please react to Gary and Katrina singing together "Spain" at Katrina's first major concert !!!! ruclips.net/video/jy13Io5Mflw/видео.html
My Brother research Al Jarreau.... SPAIN was mad know by him. Gary is the ONLY artist I have heard in my entire life that can sing that song...IT WAS PERFECT. I lived it!!! Just magnificent!
I was laughing a lot with your reaction on this video. I was thinking you're going to say that what's going on but nah😂😂😂. You're so fun to watch with and honestly you're good in appreciating every singers👏👏👏
I love his voice when he's singing ballad, he has so much heart when singing ballad. And when dancing too! Hahaha, he's like an eighteen yrs old while dancing cause of his energy..
He's the Mr. Pure Energy, great singer, artist, excellent dancer(you should see him dance). He's commonly dab as the Concert King of the Philippines along with Martin Nievera. Ohh and he's got diabetes and had been to a hospital and undergone heart surgery after a successful concert and he still got it. This guy never gives up. Never ceases to amaze us all.
I love how you watched mesmerized, how your eyes sparkled with amazement and joy! I think the idea behind asking you to react is to introduce Mr Valenciano's talents to the younger generation. I read Mr V's been performing for decades: Mr Pure Energy - he's called. Obviously, singing this song sitting down was constricting for him as he wanted to dance, jump, move, play an instrument, etc. I am not a jazz fan - probably because I had never seen/heard talent like Mr V's before. HE IS AMAZING!!!!!
"Spain" is an instrumental jazz fusion composition by jazz pianist and composer Chick Corea. It is likely Corea's most recognized piece, and is considered a jazz standard. "Spain" was composed in 1971 and appeared in its original (and most well-known) rendition on the album Light as a Feather, with performances by Corea (Rhodes electric piano), Airto Moreira (drums), Flora Purim (vocals and percussion), Stanley Clarke (bass), and Joe Farrell (flute). It has been recorded in several versions, by Corea himself as well as by other artists, including a flamenco version by Paco de Lucía, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin in the 1980s, and a progressive bluegrass version by Bela Fleck in 1979. A version with lyrics by Al Jarreau, "Spain (I Can Recall)", appeared on the 1980 album This Time.
Finally, you've reacted to this cover song of Mr. Pure Energy! He's crazy, right?!? Lots of going on that i need a glass of champagne while listening 🍾😍
Yay! Thanks for reacting to him. He is one of the epitomes of male singers here in the Philippines. He is also called as Mr. Pure Energy, one of the Philippines' greatest. If you want another song from him that is not that energetic, a soulful one, you may want to check his cover of "A warrior is a child/I will be here" in Wish bus too!
The song is a vocal version of a famous composition by Chick Corea called "Spain", which was popularized as a vocal performance by the one and only Al Jarreau who had also wrote the lyrics.
In 1971, Spain is the most recognized jazz fusion composed by Chick Corea (Grammy winner), and for all times to jazz enthusiasts. The famous Al Jarreau (seven-time Grammy Award-winning American jazz singer) wrote the lyrics of Spain (I Can Recall) and released it in 1980. Al passed in 2017. Here's a quick link if you'd like to listen to the original: ruclips.net/video/LRbtvRQUi8w/видео.html. Gary Valenciano covered this song so well in 2017. I think of it as his tribute to Al Jarreau. Thank you for your great reaction, Yasik. Enjoy the rest of your week.
Finally its here SIR YAZIK I super appreciate your reaction for this and I enjoy this 1st time I watch now I have learn more of Sir Gary's another fantastic performance. Your really great sir "maraming salamat po" like we say in tagalog thank you so much.
incredible. i've been singing spain since Al Jarraeu sang it in his album in 80s. Gary and the great Al Jarreau gave me goosebumps.. and missing Al . RIP AL.
Gary Valenciano is veri popular in the Philippine.. he is Michael Jackson in the Phils too.. & he is what we called "Pure Energy".. we love this guy ❤❤❤ Thank you for reacting his cover & God Bless you Sir😇
Cześć Yazik! What a great reaction, you really know your craft. He won't be dubbed as Mr. Pure Energy for nothing. Nothing has changed on his performance when he was still in his 20s until now. Because Filipino singers are "total performers"....🤩🤩🤩 Dziekuje bardzo! 😊❤
Hes a living legend in phil music industry specially in the 80’s great singer & dancer, branded as mr pure energy , the very first michael jackson of phils bfore others came in to d picture ..❤️❤️❤️
Gary is a multi talented human being.... one of the best ... singer / song writer....he can cover diff genre, best dancer, actor, judge and mentor of x-factor phils.... record producer ...all concerts are sold out and SRO definitely a crowd drawer ..etc etc....we call him MR PURE ENERGY .... His energy is addictive and inspirational at the same time .... a humble and kind person .... Very Proud of our Filipino talent Gary V....
Why did the viewers like me want you to react to this Gary V. (Valenciano)'s version of Spain? First, Gary V. is a wonderful singer and entertainer and is comfortable in singing different kinds of musical genre. Secondly, Spain is a song that is meant to be sung by an artist who has the mastery in "scatting" and Gary V. obviously has the skills and the pipes for this type of song. And thirdly, this song actually tests someone's patience on how long you can stand someone sing a long, really long song. For me, those are the reasons why you should react to this song. Thanks!
When you think that you have learned so much about music, and here comes Mr. Gary V. blowing out something new! It would seem an all new start! hahaha I like your reaction Coach Yazik!
If the female singers has Regine Velasquez as the Queen, the male singers has Gary Valenciano as the vocal singer... P.S. his vocals is not just for vocals 😊
Thank you for recognizing Mr. Gary Vs genius singing capabilities. I've watched unintelligent reactions out there who didn't appreciate this performance and all I could do is shake my head at the ignorance. I can't imagine anyone else attempting to cover this amazing performance.
New subscriber here and checking out your reactions for the past years! I love how you react and explain details of each videos! More power and success to your channel Yazik! Lots of love from the Philippines! :)
I do now that this is just a cover and yes its a Jazz song. "Spain" was actually composed by another jazz legend. However to be honest, Gary's cover is THE most fun and interesting I have ever heard. So fun to watch him sing the song.
"Spain" was composed by Joaquin Rodrigo in 1939 with a long history of instrumental adaptations until keyboard genius Chick Corea wrote the jazz fusion lyrics in 1971 and released the album "Light As A Feather" with Corea (Rhodes electric piano), Flora Purim (vocals and percussion), Stanley Clarke (bass), Airto Moreira (drums), and Joe Farrell (flute), and made it a jazz standard by 1973. "Spain" was recorded in several versions, by Corea himself as well as by other artists, including a flamenco version by Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin in the 1980s, and a progressive bluegrass version by Bela Fleck in 1979. Corea also performed it as a duo with Japanese pianist Hiromi Uehara. The phenomenal ensemble Manhattan Transfer also did their own version that captured the attention of those who were not really into jazz. The Light as a Feather version of "Spain" received two Grammy nominations, for Best Instrumental Arrangement and for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Group. In 2001, Corea was awarded the Best Instrumental Arrangement Grammy for "Spain for Sextet and Orchestra". Al Jarreau came into the picture much later when Chick Corea corroborated with him and with Artie Marten to rewrite the song into jazz fusion, and Jarreau made this popular during his world tour in an album titled "I Can Recall" in 1980. Improvisation is most notable in jazz so listen to how Al Jarreau attacks it with his own scat. facebook.com/AlJarreauOfficial/videos/1022121694523395/ In my humble opinion, Gary Valenciano's cover is far more challenging than that of Al Jarreau because he scatted all the instrumental parts while Jarreau did not.
Im Laughing wth Your Reaction hehehe....His A Great Dancer Too..He is Called "Mr Pure Energy"...Very Popular Singer in My Country Philippines...and Inspiring Christian Songs.... Thank You So Much Dear Handsome Yazik for Amazing Reactions To Philippines Singers... God Bless You and More Success To Your Singing Career Too...💖💖💖🎸🎤🎶🙏💃🌷🍂
Coach yazik you can also view spain cover by Him and KATRINA VELARDE of course you might amaze thier performance and he can do also dance like Michel Jackson while he singing 😊😊😊😊
Spain is a Jazz fusion instrumental composed by Chick Corea in 1971. In 1986 Chick Corea performed Spain w/ vocals with Al Jarreau Artie Marin and the Brazilian lady Yana Purim in vocals in Portuguese. Spain has been awarded by Grammy for Best Instrumental Arrangement. Stevie Wonder also sang this in a concert in London in 2008.
I got tired just watching him sing. 😂 One of my favorite singers. I'm so lucky I've seen him perform several times. Even came near to touching him but there were so many people. 😆
Just laughing and smiling at you with your authentic reaction. Gary is a top-notch singer in my country. You must see him sing and dance to learn more how crazy good Gary can be.
Spain was originally played by Chick Corea in 1973. It is an instrumental piece and some years later had a version with lyrics by the late Al Jarreau. Gary's version is a fusion of the two versions (and longer).
His our legendary singer, battle with diabetes, kidney cancer, heart by pass operation, and made most of his song very inspirational meaning, and his energy is above 100% singing and dancing, and 53 or 54yrs old now singing that song, and in his younger days he can hit very highhhhh notes.

I do now that this is just a cover and yes its a Jazz song. "Spain" was actually composed by another jazz legend.
However to be honest, Gary's cover is THE most fun and interesting I have ever heard.
So fun to watch him sing the song.
"Spain" was composed by Joaquin Rodrigo in 1939 with a long history of instrumental adaptations until keyboard genius Chick Corea wrote the jazz fusion lyrics in 1971 and released the album "Light As A Feather" with Corea (Rhodes electric piano), Flora Purim (vocals and percussion), Stanley Clarke (bass), Airto Moreira (drums), and Joe Farrell (flute), and made it a jazz standard by 1973.
"Spain" was recorded in several versions, by Corea himself as well as by other artists, including a flamenco version by Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin in the 1980s, and a progressive bluegrass version by Bela Fleck in 1979. Corea also performed it as a duo with Japanese pianist Hiromi Uehara.
The phenomenal ensemble Manhattan Transfer also did their own version that captured the attention of those who were not really into jazz.
The Light as a Feather version of "Spain" received two Grammy nominations, for Best Instrumental Arrangement and for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Group. In 2001, Corea was awarded the Best Instrumental Arrangement Grammy for "Spain for Sextet and Orchestra".
Al Jarreau came into the picture much later when Chick Corea corroborated with him and with Artie Marten to rewrite the song into jazz fusion, and Jarreau made this popular during his world tour in an album titled "I Can Recall" in 1980. Improvisation is most notable in jazz so listen to how Al Jarreau attacks it with his own scat. facebook.com/AlJarreauOfficial/videos/1022121694523395/
In my humble opinion, Gary Valenciano's cover is far more challenging than that of Al Jarreau because he scatted all the instrumental parts while Jarreau did not.
Mr. Pure energy of the philippines. His a legend

Spain was originally played by Chick Corea in 1973. It is an instrumental piece and some years later had a version with lyrics by the late Al Jarreau. Gary's version is a fusion of the two versions (and longer).
