[@vonjohnsanchez6423]

a voice of a 53 years old musician, composer, dancer, director, with 26 albums, 12x performer of the year...a legend.

[@algrand52]

He plays all instruments, he covers all genrès and he can freaking dance! He's a fireball on stage.

[@ericsison3911]

'Gary is so much into the song, that he becomes the song himself'. I think that's the highest form of compliment a singer can ever get. What a guy.

[@eleazartorres7415]

He is a legend here in the Philippines, aptly called Mr. Pure Energy and it shows right? :)

[@armandosoriano8429]

Check Gary's cover of " I will be here / warrior is a child" also on wishbus

[@dinbee4611]

Many of us who knew him before (or even watched him live) already have dissected his method, style, technique of singing, whether he sings jazz, R&B, hip hop, gospel genre music, etc., that during the advent of his debut in the music world in his younger days, everyone took notice immediately and they were asking to know more about this phenomenal singer. In a short time he swept everyone off their feet with his unbelievable talent of performing and singing, whether recorded or live, that he was often referred to as the "Al Jarreau" of the Philippines back then but mostly today he goes by the tag, "Mr. Pure Energy" given the fact he can move/dance like Michael Jackson also. Female audiences couldn't help but be ecstatic during his live concerts.

[@k1hasard]

The first time I heard this song, I was shocked at how talented he is and how he can maintain the energy level throughout the song without fatigue. He's amazing and I love this performance. I see you enjoyed it. There's a lot going on in this performance for the first time listening to it. I enjoyed your reaction.

[@h0520]

He is good at singing while dancing. Thats why he is called the Pure energy.

[@lex4422]

Pls check also his Dubidubidapdap.

[@wagnersmo]

Gary V. is not fading at his age. back in my early teenage days Gary V is already kicking in singing, dancing and even in films. that's why we call him Mr. pure energy!

[@jclab913]

Here in Philippines.. we call him Mr. Pure Energy. Because he can also dance well.

[@CesarMartinez-oc4xm]

He is a legend in Philippine entertainment industry. A singer, dancer, percussionist, composer, tv host, actor. He is half Filipino half Puerto Rican, like Bruno Mars.

[@capstan50g]

Gary is a monster! The premiere jazz singer in the world today.

[@markanthonysison3990]

The jazz song SPAIN was first composed by Chick Corea and released back in 1973. Then jazz singer Al Jerreau put in the lyrics in 1980. When Gary Valenciano did this cover song, he did it the jazzy way in scat form, what we call voice percussion back in the day and you presently call it - beat boxing, I think. With his vocals he emulated various musical instruments such as the drums, conga, guitar, bass, trumpet, sax and even the triangle as he moves his body to it's rhythm. He totally immerses himself in the song. The musicality in him is simply awesome. Gary Valenciano is known in the Philippines as MR. PURE ENERGY himself. With 39 albums to his name, he is indeed a very good singer/composer. Please check out Gary Valenciano's - Take Me Out of the Dark. Here, you will feel the other side of Gary Valenciano, as a FILIPINO with all his passion and emotions, rolled into one ... The complete package. Have a good one, Nina. Cheers !!!

[@benniedaluyon9287]

He is called mr.pure energy here in the phillippines,full of energy while performing,he is a good christian,,pls.do a reaction on him singing "taking me out of the dark" and "warrior is a child"thanx

[@silversurfer1781]

He's a dancer too. His wholebody moves in tune with music.

[@netizenn7586]

Mr. Pure Energy of the Philippines ! He's The Best in his generation...very versatile & multi-talented artist !💖 .

[@myaxiejourney8990]

2:50 - He is really a physical performer. Right on the money Ms. Mina. He's known as Mr. Pure Energy, Gary Valenciano.

[@leokatigbak6102]

After hearing Gary V sing Al Jareau’s Spain, I can’t stop going through all the other reaction videos. He’s a truly amazing singer.

[@cleolauren8670]

Gary is a percussionist. That's how he is able to do all that.

[@018knight]

not alot of people know this but even with his successful musical career, he took a personal deep dive study into music and the vocal instrument. i hope someone writes a biography one day. id love to hear his musical theories etc.

[@amandaultear3046]

Gary is amazing, and everyone in our country knows that quite well. You're amazing too. I think you're the best coach to do reaction videos. I don't know if you heard the songs before you break it down on your videos, or you're doing it impromptu. But for someone who has no idea about, "cry, runs, vocal agility", and so on, watching u immitate those notes helps me learn a lot. :) you're doing a good job, you're amazing as well. love you n your vids.

[@matricsneo]

The guy is a legend in our country. His title, since we are so big on titles in our country, is Mr. Pure Energy. The guy can literally dance as good as his singing and as fast as well. He started his career emulating Michael Jackson from his singing and his dancing and now evolved to one of the best adventurous singers in the country. I said adventurous because music genre seems to not limit this person. And if that still doesn't impress you, let me tell you that he is doing all of these while suffering diabetes. The dude has to inject insulin every day or else he would almost immediately drop dead..

[@joelramirez8388]

Thank you for reacting at last to Gary Valenciano, regarded as one of the legend singers in the Philippines that younger generations are looking up to. He produced more than 30 albums so he really knows how to produce music. You should react to his prodigy Katrina Velarde sing this same song with him on st sage, then see how amazing Katrina on her own too. I would recommend her impersonating singers no 3 for a start. Thank you supporting Filipino artists

[@sugbu-anon2035]

I feel like I needed a seatbelt to watch that performance 🤪

[@nykofthesouth2571]

1 of the best reactions for this performance... Someone who actually knows what he/she is talking about. Also, watching her dance was so cute, it's bonus.

[@ondamove9951]

Indeed he is a joy to watch especially with his concert performances....

[@llantopathy6731]

He is a great singer/ dancer! They called him mr. pure Energy in Philippines. And I love the way you give your comment/opinion! And this is the first time I saw that side of yours!

[@michaelfoxx4498]

physical performer he is. gary v is a very very good dynamic dancer. in the philippines he is a singer composer, a hit maker and a gospel preacher as well. he was named mr. pure energy. you should see him dance

[@warrenuy3707]

He's dubbed as Mr. Pure Energy... He sings and dance --- total performer. :)

[@xandrix]

Such a difficult song to sing, kudos to Gary V. Great reaction and voice analysis.

[@ekaii5203]

HE IS A LEGEND HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES. HE IS CALLED MR. PURE ENERGY :) Love the reaction ❤ Hope to see you react to KZ Tandingan on the wish bus! :) and also, Gary V again on the wish bus singing I Will be here/Warrior is a child 😊

[@mytwocents1036]

He is indeed a very physical performer, an excellent dancer too. He is known as Mr. Pure Energy in the Philippines, specially during his prime.

[@jodaliaroseherrera4236]

He is not only a good singer he is also a very good dancer thats why they call him here in philippines a energytic man..he can sing while he is dancing..and he can play all kind of music instruments.

[@carlosreyes5528]

that's why he called "mr. pure energy" in the PHilippines.

[@jonalonzo1496]

Gary V. is an icon in Philippine music... Just a great artist!

[@airplay05078]

Would you believe he's 53yrs old? He's called Mr. Pure Energy coz he is one of a few artist here that can sing and dance gracefully at the same time. His songs are usually worship songs. Please check out his "Warrior is a Child" in the Wishbus. If you want something recent that showcases his dancing check out "Sayaweh". He did it during the quarantine days here. Thank you for this awesome reaction!

[@gabrielvicente6027]

Yes Nina, he is full of energy, that is why Philippines marked him a Mr. Energy in entertainment industry. Loved your reactions and comments. God bless

[@Spade_XI]

Here in the Philippines, we call him Mr. Pure Energy.. He sings, dances, plays the piano and percussions too.. Guess how old he is.. 55.. He's one of the legends of this country.. 😁

[@frigidtsunami]

watching him when I was young, i thought he was just so over active. Did not appreciate him much. As he got older he has refined his craft that I've grown to appreciate much more.

[@nickt6965]

Absolutely impressive, I got tired watching him, how does he do it at 55 I guess that's why they call him Mr Pure Energy

[@pikachu8513]

He's the most respected singer in Philippines.

[@mmariedelle5511]

Gary V is also a fantastic dancer... He can sing AND dance during his performances

[@arieldeacosta486]

Gary has a pure energy.... Very popular singer here.. Very well performed.

[@kaiplandor6610]

[@tambok1979]

[@gabbyabad9055]

[@seanencarnacion6706]

He is Mr Pure Energy in the Philippines, thats what we call him

[@jimbocayetano]

Finally!!! I was waiting for you to react to Gary V's "Spain"...all your comments were on point. "Mr. Pure Energy" as we fondly refer to him in the Philippines is such a vocal athlete and a talented performer, singer-songwriter, dancer, musician, actor, music producer and television host. Enjoyed your reaction. Warm regards from Dubai.

[@cheflores4568]

He moves a lot because he is used to dance along when he sings up beat songs. He is a natural and excellent dancer as well. You should go to one of his concerts and you'll immediately feel like you're in a big fun party!!!

[@benjaminencinas9492]

He's multi-talented, plays the timbales as well.

[@fraciscodelapena4198]

One of the best singer and dancer in the Philippines

[@kuyangkunsintidorofficial]

[@TheJeffversoza]

So you're impressed hahahahaha...gary is known as Mr. Pure Energy of the Philippines. He is an icon here in our country. He is one of the roots and idol of every singers here. His at 50's now but he still can sing and dance like the old days. Thank you for that funny, enjoyable, and lovely reaction. Pls do reaction next time of his original song Take Me Out Of The Dark. Be safe always and God bless miss Nina

[@tirsocorgos3994]

React to him singing"Take Me Out Of The Dark" its an emotional song ...

[@-R.Gray-]

This song was originally an instrumental by pianist Chick Corea in the 70's. Al Jarreau added lyrics in 1980. There are live versions of Gary performing this song with Katrina Velarde, who Gary met when he was a judge at the X-Factor Philippines in 2012. She became one of his backup singers for a while. The best version is "@ the Town Hall".

[@josevillalpando4859]

Musically inclined people can not watch this kind of music without moving.Nina, you certainly can't. It is fun watching people having fun. Thanks.

[@nathanielbriones5354]

Among ALL Filipino talents, Gary V. will always be my fave...no disrespect to other local singers...been a fan since 1987 when he sang my all-time fave song - Take me out of the dark...

[@Ray-ig6uh]

I loved your reaction to Gary Valenciano. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!!!

[@imkriswithak1135]

I’ve seen reactions to this before and still watched beginning to end. At 08:55 I was like, oh girl, just you wait till the scat section.

[@BVRacingandDrifting]

"You Got Me Working" for pure energy dancing or "It's Over" for vocal percussion by Gary Valenciano from back in the day.

[@niloobsioma7355]

He was the Philippines answer to Michael Jackson in the 80s. And yes, you need to find videos of him standing up and dancing too. There's a recent fun quarantine home music video of him doing "Sa Yahweh" on his official channel. =).

Our very own Mr. Gary Valenciano is very popular in the Philippines & known as Mr. Pure Energy/ Michael Jackson of the Philippines because of his exceptional skill in dancing & of course as you can see in singing. He did this 3yrs ago & now he is 55yrs old. He can play drums, piano, & percussion. He is also an actor & tv host. Every singer in the Philippines looked up to him. Thank you for appreciating Filipino talent. More power,
