Paolo Onesa releases ‘Atin Ang Gabi’ MV shot in Coron

Isa si Paolo Onesa sa mga alumnus ng The Voice of the Philippines na patuloy na namamayagpag ang karera. Matapos maging finalist sa season one ng The Voice ay agad na nagkaroon ng debut album ang 23-taong-gulang na singer na pinamagatang “Pop Goes Standards.”

Ngayon, pagkaraang pumirma sa Homeworkz Music na recording label ng pamosong RnB singer na si JayR, naglabas muli si Paolo ng ikalawang album, “Handwritten,” na naglalaman ng siyam na kanta.

Isa na rito ay ang kanyang single na “Atin ang Gabi” kung saan ay nailabas na ang music video kamakailan na kinuhanan sa Coron, Palawan.

“‘Atin Ang Gabi’ is a song about spending sweet moments with the one you love. It's sort of like a love letter for someone. It's a song about being a gentleman for the lady you love and making her feel special through those little things that we take for granted,” pahayag ni Paolo.

Dagdag pa ng gwapong singer mula sa Zamboanga City, isinulat niya ang kanta na iniisip na sulitin ang oras sa dalampasigan kaya naman masayang-masaya siya na kinuhanan ang kanyang music video sa napakagandang isla ng Coron.

“Mainly I wrote the lyrics of this song talking about spending moments on the ‘dalampasigan’ (ocean shore). I just want the people watching this to be part of like a journey of me exploring and promoting of how beautiful the island of Coron is,” aniya.

“Just being in Coron, looking at the sites, at the mountains, spending time on the beach, pool and there was even a nighttime bonfire in Sophia’s Garden where we stayed. I just feel overall blessed and grateful for my whole experience and stay in Coron, Palawan,” giit pa ng singer.

Ang Atin ang Gabi ang kaisa-isang Tagalog na kanta na nakapaloob sa album kaya naming aminado si Paolo na isa ito sa kanyang mga paborito sa kanyang bagong album. Kasama rin sa kanyang all-original album ang “Find You,” “Take You Down,” “Friday Habits,” “Coffee,” “LDR,” “Lost Without You,” at “The Break Up Song.”

“It is the only Tagalog song from my sophomore album and it’s one of my favorites. This song took me the longest to write and produce because I really want it to be something special for the people who support me, my followers, family and friends.”

Nagpapasalamat si Paolo na nagawa niya ng maayos ang music video sa Coron at tila hindi umano siya nagtatrabaho habang ginagawa ang music video.

“Well first of, we shot all the scenes of the entire video in just one day. So I guess, that was the most challenging thing. Luckily, I had such an awesome team with me all throughout the shoot. Everyone involved was just really working hard and really focused in making this video the best work we could do. And by saying that, we also had so much fun in doing so,” aniya.
