There’s “Pelikula” that she co-wrote with Arthur Nery some three years ago, and she first proved that she has a knack for working beautifully with others. “Let’s go write a song and collaborate!” This is what established hit singer-songwriter Janine (Teñoso) seems to say to all the fellow music acts she’s had the pleasure to work with. And on this end, she’s had a few.
Some of her biggest songs to date are music team-ups. There’s “Pelikula” that she co-wrote with Arthur Nery some three years ago, and she first proved that she has a knack for working beautifully with others. At the time, Nery was starting to blow up as a solo R&B-soul music act, and for his singularly distinct style, Janine, too, was no slouch in the singing department and was performing at a high level.
The resulting combination of Nery and Janine, especially on their call-and-response delivery as they take turns on this soulful ballad, has resulted in some fine performances from both acts. To date, “Pelikula” is close to breaking the 100 million streaming mark. Next up for Janine is “Tingin” which she co-wrote and recorded with Cup Of Joe over a year ago.
COJ was already making great strides as one of the top pop bands of the Gen Z set, but the timely arrival of Janine’s collaboration with the band seemed to have pushed them over the edge as one of the biggest bands of the year. Credit goes to both COJ and Janine for their tasteful songwriting. If you know of the tune, you�.
