LISTEN: Janine Teñoso and Arthur Nery collab in new single, ‘Pelikula’

COLLAB. Janine Teñoso and Arthur Nery work together on the song 'Pelikula.'

Viva Records

The song is Janine and Arthur’s first collaboration as solo artists

Janine Teñoso and Arthur Nery came together to release a new single, “Pelikula,” which speaks about the story of a couple and their distant feelings for each other.

The retro, easygoing song was released on Friday, July 2, under Viva Records.

Janine shared that she wrote the chorus for “Pelikula” with Arthur back in March 2020 at the outset of the pandemic lockdown.

“I sent Arthur some chord progressions I thought of, and he immediately right there and then sent me a recording of him singing ‘Isayaw mo ako, sinta/ Ibubulong ko ang musika,’” she wrote on Facebook, explaining that upon hearing Arthur’s recording she decided that it’s going to be the song’s chorus.

Janine added that all other ideas for the song were done through Instagram chat because Arthur was in Cagayan de Oro while she was in Manila. The recording of the song and shooting for the promos were also done remotely.

“Pelikula” is Arthur and Janine’s first collaboration as solo artists. “I’m just [really] grateful I got to collab with one of the greatest songwriters/singers in the country,” Janine said. 

She added: “I love this song so much and I hope you love it as much as I do, too.”

The song will be part of Janine’s upcoming EP dropping on Thursday, July 8.
