What did you perform?
- I performed Liza Soberano's Spark with a guitar.
With who? on your own?
- I performed on my own.
Why did you choose that performance?
- I've been singing that song for two years now, it holds a sentimental value whenever I sing it. It wasn't because of the lyrics but because it was a song used as my former class' presentation for our prom night in ninth grade (or year 9 here). We had a very strong bond, so this song means a lot to me and I performed it because I can sing it with enough emotions needed for that song.
Were you happy with your performance? Why?
- In all honesty, I wasn't. For a little while now I've noticed how fragile my voice becomes whenever I sing in front of a number of people. Back in ninth grade, I lost my confidence in reaching high notes because my voiced cracked during the singing contest. After that, my technique hasn't gotten any better and whenever I try to sing in front of an audience, my voice gets weak. I didn't like this performance because I've gotten unstable during the middle part and how bad my sustain is due probably because of my wrong breathing technique.
If you could perform again, what would you change?
- I would love to perform with a better vocal and breathing technique. I've been tensing and straining a lot so I would love to improve those parts.

Hi Francine. I loved this song. You could definitely tell that this song was special to you. I could feel your emotion and you told the story of this song beautifully. As you get older and mature, your voice does change and adapt. Singing often and taking vocal tuition will help this. As for your confidence, I think you did a wonderfully job and we will build on this next year! Do you have any songs that you have not performed before that you would like to?
