[edit] Anne-Bisyosa and First Major Solo Concert
Anne Curtis released her album “Anne-Bisyosa” from Viva Records after much prodding to her bosses to give her dream solo album.[5] Curtis has always fantasized about recording her own album[6] which has now become a reality as Viva Artists Agency, Anne’s management, and Viva Records finally released her debut album.[6] “AnneBisyosa” will be a realization of one of Anne’s long-time aspirations.[6] Fans of the actress/model as well as the casual listener will be pleasantly surprised with what Anne has prepared for them as “AnneBisyosa” is quite the pop record that reflects Anne’s fresh and bubbly nature.[7] She starts off with an upbeat original called “Tinamaan Ako”, which is an OPM pop song.[7] Keeping up with the up-tempo start is her cover of Cindy Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” and a reworking of Cathy Dennis’ mid 90s hit “Too Many Walls,” remixed and arranged here by Anne’s “Showtime” co-host DJ M.O.D.[7] Anne also chooses to remake New Order’s “Bizarre Love Triangle,” and her edgy pop take on Merril Bainbridge’s “Mouth” to give her listeners a bit more listening flavor.[7] Switching onto ballads – Anne is all business with her take on a song-belter’s classic with “Alone.”[7] And finally, lending star power to Curtis’ own overflowing celebrity is the one and only Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo on an entertaining duet on “Total Eclipse Of The Heart”.[7]
After gaining good sales from her album whicht reached a certification of Gold in 2 weeks and Platinum in 2months; her first major solo concert is bound to happen.[8] In an interview with ABS-CBN’s “E-live”, Curtis confirmed the solo concert.[9][10] She added that there are no official details and announcement about the concert, but some of her fans already knew about it and they are excited.[9] Way back, Curtis has participated in the major concert of Side A and Martin Nievera where she sang the ever popular “Alone.”[9] Curtis hint the fans to expect fabulous costume changes, breathtaking dance performances, and mind blowing song numbers! Plus, her special guests will surely spice up this incredible night.[11] The major solo concert is dubbed as No Other Concert: Anne-Bisyosa Live! World Tour and will kick-off at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on January 28, 2012. It is going to be directed by Rico Gutierrez while Marvin Querido will serve as musical director with lighting design by Shakira Villa Symes[5]
