Tawag Ng Tanghalan Kids June 9 Performances, Semi-Finals Day 5 Winner
First semi-finalist, Jhon Clyd Talili. This kiddie contender from Mindanao takes a song he loves and dedicates it to his family. Through think and thin, Jhon’s family has always been there for each other. He sang “I Will Never Walk Alone” by Regine Velasquez. With every breath he had, Jhon gave it his all and hit those high notes with much power and passion. On a side note, Jhon had a fan all the way from Chicago. Renante reached out to Jhon’s family, met up with them and now they’re here watching Jhon together.
Judge Jaya called Jhon an inspiration to many. She said the judges were a bit nervous for Jhon since the pitch was a bit high. But they saw he would relax a bit before reaching a high note. A skill that they hope all contenders would learn.
Second semi-finalist, John Jamiel Convicto. John from Luzon had Septic arthirtis which affected his knee. He had two surgeries in the past and says he wouldn’t have been strong enough to go through it if it weren’t for his dad and mom. The love he gets from his family is what motivates him to move on and conquer life. John sang Christina Aguilera’s hit “I Run To You.” His dad said, “Win or lose, we are here for you.”
Judge K Brosas really loves Jamiel’s voice and said it sounded really mature. She said he had star quality and already had a future in the industry. K Brosas added it was great to know that Jamiel already knew who he was as an artist as seen through his performances.
Third semi-finalist, John Ramirez. “Angels Brought Me Here” by Guy Sebastian was John Ramirez’s song for today. Ever since he told his parents that he wanted to be a famous singer, they didn’t think twice and instead, gave their full support. John was teary eyed the moment he finished his song. It turned out, his voice wasn’t in tip top shape. He had to push himself to finish today’s performance. His hard work didn’t go to waste as he was able to finish strong and still gave a performance that made the judges happy.
Judge Mitoy noticed that John’s voice wasn’t thesame as before. He said indeed angels brought John here and said even if it wasn’t his usual voice, he was still able to give a smooth performance.
Fourth semi-finalist, Shaina Mae Allaga. Shaina learned how to love herself through the love that her family has shown her. She knows for sure that the greatest love of all is the love that comes from her parents. Because of this, she sings Whitney Houston’s hit, “Greatest Love Of All.” Indeed the love for her family reflects in Shaina’s performance. She was so inspired that she was able to give such a flawless performance. And that last note, whoa!
Judge Billy couldn’t contain how proud he was of today’s semi-finalists and called them really smart. He said Shaina gave a great performance and congratulated her in job well done.
Fifth semi-finalist, Sidro Quilicol. Lolo and Lola’s boy Sidro learned so much from his grandparents. He learned early life skills selling vegetables with his granparents. Thanks to them he learned how to do well in school and keep himself healthy. He sings “Kailangan Kita” by Gary Valenciano and sings it for his lolo and lola who took care of him from the very beginning. Sidro gave the performance of his life giving it all he’s got.
Judge Yeng said Sidro’s performance was the best yet today. She said he really did give his best knowing that it was the last chance he had to make it to the grand finals.
