Eastwood City, home of the longest-running and most-anticipated New Year’s Eve countdown celebration in Manila, returns with a bigger and brighter series of events to usher in the year 2023.

Going all out with its biggest celebration in two years, Eastwood – Quezon City New Year Countdown 2023 is set to return with a bang this December 31 at the Eastwood Mall Open Park with the much-anticipated free-for-all event that will feature live musical performances, fireworks displays, the iconic Star Drop, exciting activities, and an after-party that will run until the early hours of 2023.

Leave a comment

Two of the most sought after young Kapuso stars Allen Ansay and Sofia Pablo were able to grace the official music video of “Everybody Hurts,” the latest collaboration of Christian Bautista and Julie Anne San Jose.

During the music video release party which happened on Facebook Live, both Allen and Sofia shared that they were both nervous in doing their graceful contemporary dance scenes to complement the uplifting song. It’s also their first guest appearance ever in a music video.

The Asia’s Limitless Star had nothing but good words for the two young stars. “Kasi napanood din namin ‘yung preview eh. Ang ganda ng performance niyo ni Sofia, you did very good. Tsaka syempre ‘yung ‘Everybody Hurts’ is alam mo ‘yun may hugot nang kaunti, full of hope and nakita namin doon lahat ‘yung emotions Ninyo,” Julie Anne shares.

“Heartfelt. Very heartfelt,” Christian adds.

Directed by Treb Monteras, the music video opens on a minimalistic and dramatic narrative, showing how Allen and Sofia wash away all the hurt through remarkably inspiring contemporary dance choreography. Montreras is also the director of Julie Anne and Christian’s musical drama series ‘Still’ streaming on Viu.

The iconic singers also announced an exclusive promo on Instagram to further promote their latest collaboration. In order to join, their followers must post a video on IG and put a caption to explain their favorite lyrics from the song, along with the official hashtag #EverybodyHurtsPromo. 10 lucky followers will win special gifts from both Christian and Julie Anne.

The official music video of “Everybody Hurts” is now out on Universal Records’ official YouTube channel.

Christian Bautista and Julie Anne San Jose share uplifting message of self-love and encouragement in new single “Everybody Hurts”

Leave a comment

That’s right, Asia’s Romantic Balladeer Christian Bautista and Asia’s Limitless Star Julie Anne San Josecontinue to expand their repertoire with the release of their brand new collab track, “Everybody Hurts” under Universal Records.

The very special song is a perfectly blended mix of pensive harmonies and cathartic vocals from the two multi-awarded OPM icons. The collab track was immaculately produced by a Swedish production company who also managed to work with acts like BTS, Icono Pop, Red Velvet, The Veronicas, TWICE, and many others.

“Everybody Hurts” features the theme of perseverance and positivity – something that the world needs more than ever right now. The song lays bare the struggles of people who face harsh realities each and every day. While today’s society really needs heroes and some of us are given a great gift of persistence, resilience, and fortitude, we’re not totally invincible. Even the strongest and most capable person gets hurt and needs saving.

The song provides listeners a dose of inspiration and reassurance that everybody may feel hurt and down sometimes, but you’ll surely find better days if you keep your head up high. It’s a great tune to remind you of your worth and when you need to pick yourself up.

This latest release is not the first collaboration from Christian and Julie Anne. Back in 2015, they teamed up for their rendition of “Cruisin”, which got nominated for Favorite Remake at the MYX Music Awards 2016. Likewise, the two worked together in their major concert titled “The Sweetheart and The Balladeer” and headlined an online musical narrative series called “Still” last year.

“Everybody Hurts” is available for streaming on Apple Music, Spotify and all digital platforms starting January 21, 2022 under Universal Records.
