Regine Velasquez is widely famous for her effortless and exceptional belting. Regine has a three-octave range and though she seldom uses whistle register she is skillfully adept in hitting very high notes that require head voice using her chest voice. She can run through a series of very high notes using chest voice alone and is able to hit notes in the fifth to almost sixth octave in full chest voice. She is also popular for her ability to go through her vocal acrobatics while hitting her very high notes. She has exhibited her belting and sheer lung power while singing onstage sitting in lotus position and even while being suspended up on a harness in mid-air.

filipinos r good, i say prbbly one of the best, but i would not say the best in asia. yes we make american idol finals, yes we love to sing magik mike, yes we win idol competition internationally!!! but there are others out there who can sing and out beat some of us in here. there are juz sooo many ppl in this world that u cannot assume that we r the best.

Mabye it's because we've had a longer tradition of Western type music so we have more of a feel for it or something.

oops, i ment to say better then 'MOST' asian singers. i know we aren't the best.. just better than others and vice versa. the asian singers that i've heard can't compare to filipino singers, its mostly the east asians. kyla can pwn boa in singing anyday.... regine velasquez pwns coco lee.. sarah pwns hyori in singing, and shes only 16. and so on..

i have to admit indonesians are pretty good singers as well..

i remember i was watching a documentary about the making of the first miss saigon and they went to some asian countries, vietnam obviously as well, and they couldn't find anyone lol...ok enough tooting our own horn

. i'm sure they could have found a vietnamese singer/actress to play that role if they looked harder.
