Ok. Am a big Lea Salonga fan. Not just because she's Filipino but because her voice is really beautiful. And I love her even more when I saw her wedding video where she sang her "Two Words" before she said her "I Do" to her husband, Rob. This song was an early wedding present for Lea from her songwriter friends here in the Philippines. Click this link to see for yourself how lovely their wedding was. http://youtube.com/watch?v=4oMeYrmAem8
Two Words
(music by Louie Ocampo, lyrics by Freddie Santos)
In a while, in a word
Every moment now returns
For a while, seen or heard
How each mem'ry softly burns
Facing you who brings me new tomorrows,
I thank God for yesterdays,
How they led me to this very hour,
How they led me to this place
Every touch, every smile you have given me in care
Keeping heart, always I'll now be treasuring everywhere
And if life should come to just one question,
Do I hold each moment true?
No trace of sadness, always with gladness
I do
These are the lines which Lea sang during that big day in her life. Hope you like it when you see the video.:)

i am one of the million fans of Lea Salonga too. ive seen her wedding and even their engagement party, it was so romantic with candles all over the place, i can say rob did a good job on that..lol..when i saw her wedding it was really nice and cool, i even cried when they said there vows and rob is crying. well aside from being a filipino what i like about her is her awesome voice, she really had a great gift from god. i think when the lord give gifts for voices he give it more to lea..lol..its really a powerful voice. i heard her entrance song too and its nice specially when that was the first time i heard it. i will try listen again i know it was a nice song too.

Most of the women close to my heart do admire and love Lea Salonga for her beauty, voice, talent, and wits. They have a collection of her songs from the Miss Saigon and Les Miserables where Lea was at the peak of her fame. And yes, I've seen that music video or wedding video where she sang during her wedding. That's really sweet. Her husband must be one lucky man.

I first saw Lea Salonga in a Joe Quirino show "Take It Away" where she sang "tomorrow". After that time I always come near the television whenever she's the guest of the show.Years before she did Miss Saigon she was one of the guest along with Ruffa Gutierez by Inday BAdiday's "See True" the fortune teller Rene Mariano told Ruffa that she'll be crowned as a beauty queen then he said to Lea that he's seeing that she will have a title too..after years she was named Miss Saigon.. What a life..
