World-class diva’s take
on 14 well-loved songs

Lani Misalucha’s inspiring success story continues with the release of her new "Reminisce" album from Universal Records, which did their best to bring her back home for the launching and promotion of the new CD. Unversal Records believes that there is nothing better than bringing back the world-class diva to her Filipino audience. And most especially, so that she can celebrate her birthday with her loved ones in the country.

The new CD, entirely recorded in Las Vegas contains 14 best-loved songs, superbly performed by the platinum-selling world-class diva.

Universal Records’ producer/arranger/songwriter Ito Rapadas traveled to the USA to personally supervise the entire recording of "Reminisce" in Las Vegas.

"It is a sheer joy and such a rewarding experience to work with a genuine song artist like Lani," Ito remarks. "Given such a limited and borrowed time, we have finished ‘Reminisce.’ All of Lani’s dedication to her art and generosity to share that God-given talent can all be heard in the album."

Lani calculates that it took more than a year to finish "Reminisce." Just listening to hundreds of songs and making the final repertoire was time consuming. Then came the arrangements and rehearsals.

"The actual Vegas recording took us more than a month," Lani recounts. "We have to be extra careful to every aspect of the job. Yes, we worked on borrowed time since I have to finish my daily show before going to the studio."

Now, Lani Misalucha offers 14 heartwarming love tunes with "Love of My Life" as first single in "Reminisce." The generous sampling of her vocal styling and power will surely gladden the heart and enrich the soul.

With every song rendition, the world-class diva weaves vocal magic that always inspires— such as "Here There & Everywhere" (Beatles), "Someone that I Used to Love" (Natalie Cole), "Healing" (Deniece Williams), "Bridges" (Sergio Mendes) and "Love of My Life" (Queen).

Lani’s unique talent and voice transport us to the deep emotions of love, like in "I loved You All the Way," (Janie Frickie), "Get Here" (Oleta Adams), "Whispering Waves" (Donna Summer), "Skyline Pigeon" (Elton John), "Tin Man" (America), "Where is the Love/Feel Like Making Love Medley" (Roberta Flack), "We Could Have It All" (Maureen McGovern) and a bonus track, "Iisa Pa Lamang" (from the ABS-CBN teleserye "Iisa Pa Lamang").

All photos in the album are from an actual pictorial along the Vegas Strip.

Catch the "Reminisce" album mall tour at Trinoma on August 22 (Friday) 6 p.m. and Greenbelt 3 Park, August 23 (Saturday), 8 p.m.

Lani’s current stay in the country is sponsored by Discovery Suites. Official transportation is provided by Honda Motors.
