"I did it my way ..." at tuluyan na ngang KUMANTA si Engineer Henry Alcantara. Although mukhang disintunado pa ... at hindi pang-finals sa Pinoy Idol ... or The Voice ... pinatunayan niyang marunong din pala siyang BUMIRIT.
Pwede pasar na yong kanyang mga runs and riffs ... pero yong kanyang mga improvisational musical phrases makikita mo ang character ... it added flair and personality to his song.
He made his sinumpaang salaysay his own ... although at times it is drowned by pregnant sobs and sighs which are distracting ... nonetheless in totality ... his performance is worthy of Pinoys' support, especially those leaning to mawkish and schmaltzy stories ... or a tear-jerking melodramas.
The dynamics of his storytelling vacillate from crescendo to decrescendo ... at times mezzo-pianissimo, but when he was almost knocking at the doorstep of the song's refrain ... (hudyat na ikanta na niya ang mga pangalan) ... it was all-out fortissimo.
And when the names were out in the open ... there was a drum-roll - a rainbow of emotions sprang up sa mga TV viewers - shock ... surprise ... disappointment ... upset ... relief ... all rolled into one. Totally nerve-wracking and jaw-dropping.
We have seen the previous episodes of this political saga ... and we were privy to all the phony denials ... we have seen the frayed nerves displayed in panavision ... the fiery rebuttals ... the heated confrontations ... the passionate repudiation all recorded 3-D in national TV ... pagkatapos ito pa rin pala ang ending?
At this juncture ... the accused have enough on their plate. Pati rin siguro sila nabigla ... and adding more salt to the wound... they were not around to see and hear how Henry Alvantara belted his "Greatest Performance Of his Life." Nandoon sila sa hearing ng Independent Bommision On Infrastructure.
Just like how I ended my post the other day ... SINADYA ba or COINCIDENCE lang? ITINAON ba ... or NAGKATAON lang na wala sila ... to spare them the biggest jolt this side of their political career.
