00:00I want him to be on the show.
00:07Do you have that episode?
00:09I mean, for all your talent, I mean, I'm talking as a fan, as a friend, and as a music lover,
00:16may dumadaan ka talaga sa pagkakataon na you still doubt, Martin?
00:20Well, siyempre, after all these years, 42 years in the business, tapos nanonoodo ko
00:24sa mga ibang artists ngayon, music has changed, yung style ng direction has changed.
00:30That's why I have Paolo Valenciano to kind of show me how yung itura ng mga concerts
00:36ngayon, siyempre, nakaka-tense yun para sa mga kagulat.
00:40I'll go to your quote.
00:41You know, you would say, you know, they're getting better and they're getting younger.
00:45Martin's going to tell you something, and this is coming from my heart, but there will
00:49always be, and there will only be, one Martin Nivera.
00:56Hindi.
00:59Everyone, I know this.
01:00I mean, we will go.
01:01The one immutable law in the business is that no one lasts forever.
01:04Alam natin niyo.
01:05It's true.
01:06But there will always be just one Martin Nivera.
01:10And I say it straight to your face, and I say it straight to the faces of the public.
01:15That's why everybody's so excited.
01:16We are so, Aptori Ibarra is here.
01:18We are so excited because you're coming back to the big stage.
01:22Yes.
01:23Which you started.
01:24Well, you know, not too many of the kids watching know that, so.
01:26You started it.
01:28We needed a guinea pig to go to the big stage to see kung kaya talaga ng isang artiste.
01:32I remember.
01:33What was that?
01:34Many years ago.
01:3583.
01:3683, we started it.
01:37Martin wanted.
01:38You were the first one to go to Ultra and many other things.
01:39I'm talking like a publicist.
01:40But anyway.
01:41Para lamang magkaroon ng ideya, lalo ng mga bata, on how you started, and I'm sure a lot
01:47of your fans.
01:48Tell me about a story of the song Feelings.
01:52Feelings?
01:53Yes.
01:54Well, I was singing Feelings.
01:55Galing mo, ah.
01:56Ano ka ba?
01:57I was singing Feelings.
01:58And I discovered, in the locker room after a basketball game, hindi ako naglaro, so kunyari
02:02naglaro ako, so antagal ko sa shower.
02:04Habang nung nagsishower, nage-enjoy ko sa reverbed echo.
02:08Right.
02:09May dumaan ng isang lalaki.
02:12Wrestling coach.
02:13Wrestling coach.
02:14Hindi naman nanood.
02:15Nakikinig siya sa akin, sabi niya sa akin, hey, I want you to audition tomorrow for
02:20the choir.
02:21So I joined the choir.
02:22I became part of the choir.
02:24Which did backup vocals.
02:25For Barry Manilow.
02:26See?
02:27So, Barry, together, even before that, siguro kasabayan ng mga panahon ito, he makes the
02:31best burgers.
02:33I do.
02:34That one I will accept.
02:35Yes.
02:36You do talaga.
02:37My kids love it.
02:38I love it.
02:39I slap it on with lots of barbecue sauce.
02:40Because they had a restaurant.
02:42Tell us a short story.
02:43In California, we had a burger place right by the BART station, which no longer exists.
02:46It's a parking lot.
02:47But back then, we used to make burgers sa mga dumadaan dyan after they get home from work.
02:53We would make burgers, adobo sandwiches, lumpia.
02:57It's called the Roadrunner Burgers, Concord, California.
03:01Okay.
03:02Do you also know that Martin Rivera won a California-wide talent search some time, just
03:12before you started.
03:13I think it was...
03:1481.
03:1581.
03:16Just before you came back to the Philippines.
