1. “Di Na Muli” (Acoustic Version)
“Di Na Muli” is one of Janine’s iconic releases in 2018. But its acoustic version made it extra painful and heart-wrenching—as if you were being punched with an emotionally slapping song.
In addition, her mellow version of this song can lull you to sleep, but it can also break your heart in a slow-burning kind of ache. Yet regardless, it will make you play it on repeat because of how Janine sang it with so much emotion.
The way her voice pleads through this song, how it touches even the scarred part of your soul—it’ll make you see how the past is there for a reason and why it was called “past.”
2. “Paano”
Janine’s “Paano” is one of her 2021 album Kwento sa Silid tracks. The song was written for people who gave their all—genuine love, extra efforts, and their entire world to someone, only to be dumped after.
“Paano” is a question of someone who believed the promises that were given to her, only to watch them get broken over and over. It’s a song full of “whys” and “hows” after a relationship ended.
Moreover, this song is for the ones who were left behind. For the ones that made someone their world only to watch them walk away from it. For the ones that loved too hard but in return, their love was never enough to make someone stay.

3. “Umibig Muli”
The singer was known for her aching songs, but “Umibig Muli” is more than just her comfort way of releasing her pain. It was acceptance and choosing yourself after the hurt. It was letting go of the idea of love for someone.
The song’s line, “Iniisip na lang na lahat ng sakit ay may dahilan,” opens a positive outlook on life, on pain. Additionally, it’s not just another heartbreak song from her—it was Janine’s testament and full pledge of how you can heal—someday, at some point.
It is her reminder that every pain, every cry, and every sob will someday turn into happiness and healing. Someday, after the pain you have felt, you can love again.
4. “Sandig”
An unexpected love, and a love that waits, is what “Sandig” is all about. Janine proved that her songs aren’t just about hurting. It’s also that sweet feeling of crushing over someone and giggling over their presence.
The secret glances, the sly smiles, and the daydreams about them—it’s just another romance story. “Sandig” is a song declaring that someone you like is meant for you.
Furthermore, this song feels like butterflies tingling your heart. A love that is willing to wait is what this song conveys.

5. “Apat Na Buwan”
“Apat Na Buwan” is a song of a push-and-pull relationship. It’s the unclear signs, inconsistent feelings, and one step forward, three steps back. This song of Janine Teñoso questions the love that is kept secret and never shown.
This is more than just yearning or longing—it’s the fact that you could be more with someone, but they’re not willing to risk it. Despite your eagerness to be with them, they chose to be with someone else instead.
For convenience? Maybe. Or perhaps, the love between you and him was never real in the first place.
Bonus Tracks That You Can’t Miss if You’ll Attend the Solo Debut Concert of Janine Teñoso
Apart from being a solo artist, Janine Teñoso also collaborated with some powerhouse artists of P-pop. Here are some bonus tracks of Janine featuring her special guests in her solo debut concert.
“Tingin”
“Tingin” is such a sweet romantic song from Cup of Joe featuring Janine Teñoso. It’s far from Janine’s usual way of releasing songs, but it proved her versatility in genres. In addition, the song gained its peak due to its pleasing tune and enticing beat paired with love-struck lyrics.
“BTNS”
The Juans and Janine Teñoso in one song? Definitely a heartbreak you wish didn’t exist, but still somehow want to have. “BTNS,” the acronym for “Bakit ‘To Nangyari Sa’tin?” is a song of questions after a not-so-good ending between two people. The “we were okay” but one day, “we just slipped away” kind of song.

“Pelikula”
The chilling vibe of “Pelikula” by Janine ft. Arthur Nery will let you reminisce. The memories of old good times flash like a movie. The perfect blend of Janine and Arthur’s voices creates a perfect song.
“Distansya”
Rob Deniel’s soulful voice and Janine’s warm tone fit perfectly in “Distansya.” This collaboration is a must-listen song. The song defies struggles (distance) just to be with someone they love.
