Hindi naman ako galing sa </i>family n<i>g mga artista, tapos</i> until now <i>nandito pa rin ako sa </i>business. There's so much to be thankful for <i>kaya hindi ko na iniisip yung mga bagay na hindi ko nagawa,</i>” she said during the press con for her 25th anniversary concert, <i>Bente Singko</i>, held last Tuesday, September 25.</div><div><br/></div><div>Although she’s a newbie when it comes to songwriting, Aiza has come up with a song that actually topped the music charts, “<i>Di Lang Ikaw</i>” performed by Juris. “I haven’t done a lot. S<i>iguro sa mga nasulat ko isa lang ang masasabi ko na gusto ko, yung kay Juris</i>. I really can’t say <i>na isa akong </i>songwriter. <i>Sa totoo lang</i> starting <i>pa lang ako. Ayoko ma</i>-pressure n<i>a sumulat ng kanta. Gusto ko sumulat ako ‘pag may gusto akong sabihin, hindi para kumita. Ang trabaho ko naman talaga </i>singing. Songwriting is more of on the side <i>lang talaga</i>,” she told <a href='http://Push.com.ph'>Push.com.ph</a>.</div><div><br/></div><div>Asked if there’s any song that could sum up her 25 years in the industry, Aiza revealed that it would have to be the mash up of “<i>If I Could”</i> and “<i>Wind Beneath My Wings</i>”. “<i>Yung</i> ‘If I Could/Wind Beneath My Wings’ <i>kanta ko </i>for my mom. <i>Parang</i> it’s about if she could, she wants to protect me. P<i>ero hindi ganon ang buhay. Darating yung</i> time <i>na magtratrabaho ka</i> on your own. And what’s good about my mom is that<i> hinayaan niya ako, kahit may </i>time n<i>a alam niyang pwede akong masaktan. </i>But still <i>alam ko siya yung nag</i>-lift up <i>sa akin.</i>”</div><div><br/></div><div>Aiza added that the song “<i>Bituing Walang Ningning</i>” is also meaningful to her because it reminds her to stay grounded in spite of what she has achieved in showbiz. “<i>Naka</i>-relate a<i>ko diyan kasi para sa akin, ‘pag nasa industriya ka,</i> you get blinded by the lights,<i> ika nga</i>. Sometimes you forget the most important things. <i>Parang nawawala ka sa realidad. Akala natin </i>success is <i>yung manalo ka ng mga </i>awards. Of course it’s good if you win awards. But sometimes you forget that when you are loved, it means more than anything.” </div><div><br/></div><div>And speaking of love, Aiza said that she’ll be performing a duet of “I<i>f I Could/Wind Beneath My Wings</i>” with former <i>Protégé</i> winner Krizza Neri in her concert at the Big Dome this Friday. Incidentally, the two have been romantically linked to each other ever since they worked together in the said singing competition. But when asked about the real score between them, Aiza refused to further talk about the issue. “<i>Eto na lang</i>, whatever I have with Krizza right now, we’re happy. <i>Yun lang</i>.” She was also deliberately being vague when asked if she’s currently in a relationship. “<i>Ang puso ko ay malayang malaya. Hindi kailangan mabilanggo</i>.” </div><div><br/></div><div><i>Bente Singko: Aiza Seguerra’s silver anniversary concert </i>on September 28 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum is a production of That’s Ntertainment Productions, Blackbird Music Creations, and line produced by MediaNation Inc.
