Lani lords over major music charts

Listening to Lani Misalucha's album which is currently No. 1 in Astroplus Megamall and Podium, and Top 5 in Music One and O Music Video, is almost like having a choice seat inside the Flamingo in Las Vegas, USA where the Filipinos' pride regularly wows

the international audience. How to explain this phenomenon of a runaway album sale which is simply amazing? It could be that the Lani Misalucha album is a veritable major and much-awaited music event that musicphiles all over country have catapulted the fast-selling CD to the top of the charts.

Lani has been in and out of the Philippine music scene since the late 1980s, as a vocalist in various bands, as a soloist in the lounge and hotel circuits, as singer for commercial jingles and multiplex tapes. It is amazing to note that although she stopped singing professionally for periods of time, opportunities never cease to come knocking at her door. It seems that music is her destiny.

Now being heard over the airlanes is "Christmas Won't Be the Same Without You" soon to be a staple during the Yuletide season. But still all the 14 carefully-selected songs in the album are potential hit singles. Whether Lani Misalucha is simply crooning or powerfully belting, she gives her heart and soul to every song.

It is not important that her repertoire in the self-titled outing has been sung by various performers, since Lani's very own treatment of these songs has made them the definitive versions!

Lani Misalucha never planned to be a professional singer. She simply loves to sing, and boy, can she sing! With the voice of an angel cascading up and down the scales like a roller coaster, a full three octaves of heavenly music, full throated, full chested and fully seasoned, she can sing a song as few others can.
