Filipino fans packed the Pacific Coliseum last October 18 for a night of explosive performances and that familiar sense of home we always feel when "ASAP" goes global. And for those of us here in the Philippines, we didn’t miss out on the fun either, as "ASAP" airs the Vancouver special on its regular Sunday timeslot. The first part of the concert was already featured in the October 26 episode.
Moira Dela Torre, the “Queen of Hugot” and the Philippines’ most-streamed artist, serenaded the crowd with “Malaya.” The song, which she first released in 2018 and later expanded into a stunning 10-minute version in 2022, filled the stadium with pure emotion.
The audience was then treated to a heart-melting surprise when Moira welcomed her friend Daniel Padilla back to the stage for a duet. Together, they performed “Mabagal,” the slow-dance single we didn’t realize we missed until that very moment. The track was first performed by Daniel and Moira as interpreters for the “Himig Handog” songwriting competition in 2019, and hearing it live again almost felt like nostalgia.
There’s more music, more kilig, and more Kapamilya fun waiting next week, so make sure to catch the next part of "ASAP in Vancouver" in next Sunday’s episode.
Don’t miss this milestone celebration of 30 years of Filipino pride and music in “ASAP in Vancouver,” on local TV via Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), TV5, A2Z, iWant, and TFC worldwide.
