Gel Aquino shares how she wrote her song 'Hanap Ka' in one day

Rising singer Gel Aquino made a strong impression with her sensual love song "Hanap Ka."

Composed by Gel herself, she revealed that it took her just a day to finish writing the track.

She told GMA's Kapuso Brigade, "Itong kantang ito, nasulat ko noong umpisa ng pandemic...May 8, 2020, isang araw ko siyang sinulat."

"Nung araw na 'yun, nakapag-compose ako ng melody sa utak ko, tapos sabi ko, itong melody na ito, para siyang pang-in love. Ang sensual. Para sa mga taong nagha-honeymoon o may partner."

Gel narrated how she began the writing process of "Hanap Ka" with the melody. "Nag-start siya from melody and na-feel kong pang-in love itong kanta na ito."

Once an aspiring writer, Gel joined her love for writing and music to become a composer. "Hindi po talaga ako nagko-compose ng kanta kasi ang gusto ko po talaga, maging writer. Mahilig akong magsulat ng love stories."

"Pero hindi po nangyari 'yun...dahil singer din naman ako, doon nangyari, napag-combine ko lang.

Gel continued, "Dahil single po ako, hindi ako maka-relate, pero ang inspiration ko is 'yung mga napapanood ko and sa mga experiences natin, 'yung feeling of being in love."

With "Hanap Ka," she hopes to inspire people to never forget the feeling of being in love. "Ang message nitong song is ma-express sa partner mo or sa mahal mo na gusto mo talaga siyang makasama, hinahanap hanap mo siya. Very sexy and sensual 'yung song.

"Siyempre gusto ko maramdaman nilang in love sila, kapag narinig nila 'yung kanta, kahit single sila naalala nila 'yung feelings of being in love."
