Christian's record label, Universal Records, made the announcement on its Instagram page. The song was digitally released on Friday, November 2.


They also shot a music video for the single here in the Philippines.


In an exclusive interview with GMAnetwork.com, Christian described his recent collaboration with the American Idol alumna as “a breeze.”

“Napakagaling, e. Kahit ano kaya. Ako nga yung parang naghahabol, di ba, kasi napakagaling niya. Pero kahit the song has so much emotions, she has put on so much talent into that song as well,” he said.

The Kapuso singer also recalled that they have heard “Another Silent Christmas Song” after he and Jessica recorded “Two Forevers.”

“It just so happen na now is the right time to record it and to release it. I'm very thankful na they were able to make it happen.”

During the press conference prepared for Jessica this afternoon, November 5, she also remembered hearing about the song.

However, she said, “It wasn't Christmas at the time. So we were thinking about, you know, when we do another collaboration, we would come back to this song.

“It's such a beautiful song. It has to be a timeless song if we heard it way back, a couple of years ago, and we're still loving it.

“It is a beautiful song although it's kind of sad. I'm very happy to be able to collaborate again with Christian Bautista.”

Jessica recently signed up with Stages Talents Group, the same talent arm that handles the showbiz career of Christian Bautista.

Meanwhile, the American Idol runner-up is currently in the country on November 10 for her concert in The Theatre at Solaire.
