BRYAN TERMULO, dubbed as the Philippines' "Prince of Teleserye Theme Songs" for he sung ABS-CBN's teleserye theme songs like "Daldalhin" (Walang Hanggan) and Bihag (100 Days to Heaven). He still reigns the center stage, specially now that he recently signed a contract together with his management BWB Records a partnership with the international recording label, Warner Music Philippines. He will join the international artist like Jason Derulo, Josh Groban, Ed Sheeran and more, under Warner.
Bryan's first single under Warner Music is "Erase Ka Na Sa Puso Ko", a song about heartaches of a lover who has suffered and is now trying to move on from his past love. We had a chance to listen to the song that can be digitally download today on iTunes, Deezer and other digital retailers.
The song is perfect for those who experience or experiencing sufferings from love and trying to move on or let go the pain. Just like any other "hugot" songs out there, this is a right song to accompany you with what you call "soul searching", "emo-tripping" or "senti-moments'.
"This song is like trying to erase all the memories from past relationship, it tells about parang kakalimutan na kita, paalam na sa'yo, letting go also, pero may konting heartaches, but personally in real life wala pa naman gustong i-erase from love issues, let's see nalang what happens next" Bryan said.
This is the first single of Bryan release digitally under Warner and probably this would be the basis of his album under the international recording label. More so, Bryan wants to achieve the status of his music influences both local and international, as they became a music icon with the song they made.
"Dito sa Warner nakakatuwa kasi all is according to plan, so paisa-isa ilalabas yung mga single ko, kasi ganun naman ang trend ngayon eh all songs can digitally download na eh"
"I want people to know my song, gusto ko yung sasabihin nila na, Ay maganda 'to, gusto ko 'to, kanta 'to ni Bryan Termulo, Si Bryan ang kumanta n'yan, yung kantang tatatak talaga or original song/s na nakatatak sa pangalan ko, dun palang masayang masaya na ako"
Admittedly Bryan is really prioritizing his singing or music career, so expect to have more great music from Bryan starting this year. Although he starred in several shows like "Budoy", "Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala" and now he is in the top rated Kapamilya Primetime teleserye "Dream Dad", singing is in the top of his mind and wants to achieve more from it.
We all know that Bryan is a product of a singing competition and from there, he made so many shows that made a name on the music industry. For almost 9 years he have investments and achievements that he fulfilled for him and his family.
"For me kasi, binigyan kana ng pagkakataon so make the most out of it, so may sarili na kaming bahay ngayon, dun palang malaking bagay na yun, I also have basic car na I can use for my work, a condo also where I can hangout as well at nabibili ko na din ang mga gusto ko pero hindi yung basta-basta, I'd rather save it for my future needs, lalo ngayon pinag-iisipan ko na kung saan ko ilalagay ang pera" Bryan divulged.

The publicist @simonjonespr of the band confirmed the news through tweet saying "Zayn has been signed off with stress and is flying back to UK to recuperate..." I hope this one is not true or maybe Simon's twitter account was hacked or whatever reason because, I will feel so sad for Filipino teens. I've witnessed personally how they love One Direction at the opening of 1D World Store at SM Megamall (story HERE). Letz all watch out for the updates of this situation, but if not, I think Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson will take good care of the rest :)
