Angeline Quinto’s Most Iconic Teleserye Theme Songs
A television series is one thing that binds every Filipino family. Whether romance, drama, comedy, or thriller, whatever genre it is, a good teleserye is a happy family. But what others may not notice is how the series theme songs add to the beauty of every story.
Angeline Quinto is the “Philippines’ Queen of Teleserye and Movie Theme Songs”. It was only in 2015 that she recorded a total of 35 movie and television series theme songs. What more seven years from then? Her versatility, voice, style, and storytelling capture the heart of every viewer.
And while we are all waiting for her next movie or teleserye theme song, let us have a rundown of the most iconic ones.
Nag-iisang Bituin
Nag-iisang Bituin was the official soundtrack of the television series “Princess and I”, starring the phenomenal love team of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, popularly known as KathNiel. Others say that the song complimented the love story of teens in a fictional-like setting. Besides recognizing how the music fits the genre, it also won the Awit Award for Best Song Written for Movie/TV/Stage Play.
Kahit Konting Pagtingin
Kahit Konting Pagtingin was the official theme song of the drama series with the same title in 2013. It was a romance series where Angeline played together with Sam Milby and Paulo Avelino. The renowned Jonathan Manalo and Rox Santos produced the song under Star Music.
Kunin mo na ang Lahat sa Akin
Kunin mo na ang Lahat sa Akin cannot be missing. This song is considered a massive hit that is always included in Angeline’s song list at every concert. The track was used as the theme song of the ABS-CBN teleserye, “Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin,” starring Coco Martin and Maja Salvador.
Hanggang Kailan Kita Mamahalin
One of the most iconic theme songs Angeline has recorded is the Hanggang Kailan Kita Mamahalin. This was used in the Philippine drama television series “The Legal Wife” in 2014. Directed by Rory B. Quintos and Dado C. Lumibao, starring Angel Locsin, Jericho Rosales, Maja Salvador and JC de Vera.
The viewers themselves said that the soundtrack had played a significant role in the drama’s success. Until today, Hanggang Kailan Kita Mamahalin can be heard playing on radios, especially on Sundays.
Ikaw Lamang
Ikaw Lamang is the official theme song of the television series “Ina, Kapatid, Anak”. Starring Kim Chiu, Xian Lim, Maja Salvador, Enchong Dee and other ABS-CBN artists. It is a 2012 Philippine family drama directed by Don M. Cuaresma and Jojo A. Saguin.
A good teleserye needs an equally good soundtrack. And as I look back on the series above, it is no question why the viewers loved them. With the award-winning casts and directors, addicting storylines to the best theme songs, it was all perfection.
Laica is an ambivert; she loves being alone but gets rowdy with the people she's familiar with. She is an aspiring radio DJ that reads people's stories. When not cooking, you can probably find her under a blanket, watching the latest Korean drama series. She loves complimenting others and make them realize of the goodness they have.
