[shure_belle]

Maganda yung kinanta nila ni Ogie A. kahapon sa SOP. Papatok yan.

[Vlestat]

i LIKE HIS VOICE . aCTUALLY MAS GUSTO KO YUNG RANGE NG BOSES NYA KESA KAY ERIK.

Mukha namang may star appeal din ito . Bet ko nga sya aside kay Sarah nun sa Star for a night . I hope bementa din yung almbum nya.

[keyelle]

yeah, maganda yung boses niya.kahit di ganoon kagwapo si mark , may appeal pa rin.

[kulaog]

Sana mag-click yung album niya.

[Batousai]

Wimp

[starczamora]

he look promising. i thought he will win Star For A Night, but Sarah Geronimo shined brighter.

[gresyl]

i wish him all the luck..he looks very simple and humble..hinding hindi ko talaga makakalimutan yung star for a night grand finals,he was so good..he sang "ngayon at kailanman"..i like him more than erik..

[banshe1981]

ako rin akala ko siya ang mananalo nun sa star for a night...namali *** sya ng choice of song at pati ng outfit ( sobrang baduy yung suot nya nung finals...

[banshe1981]

magpataba rin sya...

[guinevere_79]

No offense to his fans here, but I think he needs more polishing to make it big as a recording artist. Masyado niya pinapalaki boses niya, especially in that new single of his. Pangit tuloy pakinggan.

Oh, and he needs to establish an identity separate from that of Sarah Geronimo's. Pwede ba namang forever na silang mag-love team sa kahit anong gawin nilang project?

[banshe1981]

guinevere

may point ka dyan...

But he's not. He looks very masculine in person. Very down to earth pa yan.

Anyway,mas gusto ko si erik when it comes to star quality.

Mark Bautista is the new Prince of Pop

A fitting heir to the title owned by some of the country best singers, 20-year-old Mark Bautista is the new “Pop Prince” with his incomparable singing talent, strong stage presence and striking good looks. Standing 5'8" and weighing 145 pounds, he is this generation's biggest male singing discovery. He is being compared with the other winners of talent search contests, but this is unfair since Mark is much ahead of them in the accomplishment department.

Counting Frank Sinatra, Luther Vandross, Peabo Dryson, George Benson, Brian McKnight and Martin Nievera among his musical influences, Mark used to be a performer in Cagayan de Oro before joining the Star For A Night auditions, though he didn't win the grand prize. Viva Artists Agency spotted his potential and signed him up to a contract. Beginning as a co-host of S4AM with Sarah Geronimo, his biggest break is starring in sold-out concerts with her.

His first major project, a self-titled debut album under Viva Records, is one of the hottest CD buys these days. For the last few months, Mark has kept a low profile and concentrated on finishing this album. He says, “I really wanted to make sure that I came out with a good album that I could be proud of, that's why I concentrated on it exclusively for several months.”

The album is now out. It contains 12 cuts, including his heart-warming version of “Ngayon at Kailanman,” the Basil Valdez classic that Mark sang during the S4AN grand finals. There is also “Ako'y Maghihintay,” a duet with Sarah Geronimo. Other songs are “Baliw,” the CD's carrier single which comes with a music video directed by Jon Ilagan, “Kapag Ako'y Kailangan,” “Another Chance,” “Sayang Naman,” “One Girl,” “Lahat sa Buhay Ko” and cover versions of “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow,” “Out Here On My Own,” “Lost Without Your Love” and “Power of Love.”

Incidentally, Mark is promoting his album by doing the following mall shows: Jan. 24 at SM Sucat, Jan. 30 at SM Southmall, Feb. 1 at SM Bacoor, Feb. 6 at SM North-EDSA and Feb. 7 at SM Manila.

Watch out for Mark Bautista, now the new Prince of Pop!

'DI MAITAPAT KA SARAH, KAY MARK NA LANG?
by Ruel J Mendoza
(People's Insider)

MASAYANG-MASAYA si Mark Bautista nang matupad ang pangarap na mai-launch ang kanyang self-titled debut album produced by Viva Records sa Hard Rock Cafe.

Noon, pangarap lang daw niyang magkaroon ng album at kumanta sa isang malaking venue tulad ng Har Rock Cafe.

"Hindi po rin ako makapaniwala," ngiti ni Mark. "Kasi, parang ang hirap abutin ang ganito, na vevue ng big-name singers and foreign artists ang place ng launch. Pero sa nangyayari, masaya ako, pati ang pamilya ko sa Cagayan de Oro. Full support sila sa dreams ko."

Ang laki na nga ng (improvement) ni Mark. Physically and performance-wise, malakas ang dating niya ngayon at lalaking-lalaki. gumanda pa ang kanyang boses kaysa noong sumali siya sa Star For A Night.

May mga nagku-compare nga kay Mark kay Erik Santos, ang questionable winner sa Star In A Million ng ABS-CBN 2. Sabi naman ni Mark, hindi siya dapat i-compare kay Erik dahil hindi siya nanalo noon sa Star For A Night.

"Siguro dahil pareho kaming lalaki. But other than that, wala dapat comparison. Hindi naman ako ang winner ng S4AN, unlike siya na champion.

"Could it be na hindi siya puwedeng itapat kay Sarah (Geronimo), kaya sa akin na lang? Okey lang, basta healthy ang competition at walang siraan."

[starczamora]

Good luck Mark. Alam kong malayo ang mararating ng career mo.

[itlogmo]

ang galing ng pag-sesecond voice nya sa Broken Vow nila ni Sarah. He's got a good voice.

[KaY77]

magaling sya!
