The Grammy-winning hitmaker is grateful that his love songs have had been embraced by Pinoy music fans. These include Heaven, Everything I Do (I Do It For You), Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?, Straight From the Heart, Please Forgive Me, including his collabs with other artists I Finally Found Someone (with Barbra Streisand), It’s Only Love (with Tina Turner) and All For Love (with Sting and Rod Stewart).

Bryan Adams would love to hear recommendations from Filipino fans on which of his songs they want him to play at his upcoming Manila concert.

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter is currently doing the Asia leg of his So Happy It Hurts Tour and he’s visiting Manila again for his March 15 show at the Araneta Coliseum. And if fans have any suggestions and requests, they can just send them to him via Instagram.

“I would love it if somebody would send me a list of all the songs they want to hear in the Philippines. I mean, I’m pretty sure that we’ve got it covered. But it’s always good to know what else we might need to add to the show,” the 63-year-old Canadian hitmaker told the Filipino press during a virtual interview, where he generously answered questions that also touched on the breadth and length of his career.

“And I do this thing where I’m on stage and I’ll do requests from the audience. I’m not sure if I’m going to do it for this part of the tour, but I have done it in the past. And you’d be surprised by all the different songs that come up during that time. But sure, you know, if anyone has any recommendations, by all means, send me a message on my Instagram and I’ll try and fit the song.”

During the virtual interview, he expressed how impressed he was by how much Filipinos are a sucker for love songs.

Known as one of the best-selling artists of all time, Bryan was grateful that his love songs have had been embraced by Filipino music fans.

These include Heaven, Everything I Do (I Do It For You), Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?, Straight From the Heart, Please Forgive Me, including his collabs with other artists I Finally Found Someone (with Barbra Streisand), It’s Only Love (with Tina Turner) and All For Love (with Sting and Rod Stewart).

“You know, I love it. And it’s very, very sweet. Because, in fact, I will have to say it’s unlike any other country in the world how much they love a love song there. So, I’m excited to go and sing them all for you,” he said.

“We played in Korea the night before, in Tokyo now and (will be) playing in Japan for this week, and then, of course, we’re coming down to see you at the end of our Asian tour. And so very, very excited to be coming back here.”

When asked why he kept coming back to the country, he admitted, “Well, I meet Filipino people all over the world and they always remind me that they love the songs. So, when the opportunity came to come and play in Asia again, I said to my agents, ‘Make sure the Philippines is on there.’”
