Celebrating 40 years of Martin's music


Martin Nievera is considered one of the greatest stars in the history of 
Philippine entertainment.

Four decades has passed since one Martin Nievera returned to the Philippines and ventured into the entertainment business. Fittingly, the would-be Philippine Concert King will celebrate the huge milestone on Saturday, November 19 at The Theatre at Solaire. Titled M4D, it promises to be a career spanning concert.


As the son of legendary balladeer Bert Nievera, Nievera had dreamt of following in his father's footsteps since childhood. After he was tapped to sing background to Barry Manilow and besting over four thousand contestants in a California State talent competition, he decided he had what it takes to be a singer.


Vicor Music Corporation signed Nievera to a recording contract in 1982. Label president Vic del Rosario, Jr. then handpicked the Vehnee Saturno composition "Be My Lady" to be part of the artist's first album, "Take 1," released in 1983. The single turned out to be a massive hit and sparked the beginning of four decades worth of other hits and counting.


Considered Martin Nievera classics besides his beloved anthem are "How Can I," "Each Day with You," "Pain," "Paradise," "Please Don't Throw My Love Away," "Christmas Won't be the Same without You," "Say That You Love Me," "Ikaw ang Lahat sa Akin," "Ikaw ang Aking Pangarap," "Forever," "You are My Song," "Ikaw," "Kahit Isang Saglit," "Ikaw Lang ang Mamahalin" and so many others across a total of 28 staggering albums.


Nievera's success as a recording artist of course allowed him to venture into other areas of entertainment. Besides singing, he also became a lyricist for songs like "You Are My Song" and "Forever," both sung by Regine Velasquez. He likewise appeared in a string of movies like "Always and Forever and "Si Mister at si Misis." He further dominated television as a host starting with "Penthouse Live" in 1984 down to "Martin and Pops Twogether," and his successful solo gig "Martin After Dark" among others.


But with music ever his first love, Nievera continued to mount bigger concerts every time so much so that he deservingly earned the title Concert King.


Fast forward to present, it is no surprise that Martin Nievera is considered one of the greatest stars in the history of Philippine entertainment. Despite and amid his success, he continues to work because showbiz is where he thrives. Sundays for him will always mean doing "ASAP" on ABS-CBN's platforms and like before, he is only happy to accept offers to do concerts here and abroad and keep sharing his beautiful music and madness.


Post anniversary concert, Nievera is fully booked for shows near and far but promises he will complete the new album — his 24 — he is working on.
