Nina bares her simple, happy heart

Bot Glorioso - The Philippine Star

Nina likes it simple this time when it comes to affairs of the heart. Two past relationships with fellow singers that went into the ditch are enough for her to sit down and notice the pros and cons of loving someone from the same profession.

Lack of time tops Nina’s list of reasons why she and and Nyoy Volante’s relationship fizzled out several months back. But there’s no sense in sulking. She has moved on. Now, her heart is beating again, this time for a non-showbiz guy.

“Simple and happy,” Nina describes how she feels about her newfound love. The guy is the brother of Nina’s guitarist who, without her knowing it, has been keeping an eye on her for quite some time.

“I only noticed him three months after I broke up with Nyoy. And it’s better this way, no intrigues,” Nina shares. But she is mum about her new boyfriend’s identity.

The petite singer admits her romance with a guy surnamed Enriquez and the young owner of a taxi company, is going strong. It is very different from her relationships with her past loves. Her falling out with Jimmy Bondoc had been so traumatic, she’s not yet on speaking terms with him until now, two years after they broke up.

“But Nyoy and I separated amicably. We say hi and hello every time we bump into each other,” Nina says. She thinks hers and the acoustic singer’s constant togetherness during shows made love bloom. But their conflicting schedules tore them apart.

“We seldom saw each other before we parted ways,” Nina recalls.

With a newfound love by her side, Nina expresses how happy she is at being well taken cared of by the guy who is so self-effacing he does not want to come out in public.

“He is good-looking, we’re of the same age and bini-baby nya ko,” Nina says as she shows off his picture on her cell phone.

Still, Nina is focused on her music, rendering songs that touch the heart. Come Valentine’s Day, she will perform in a dinner concert titled My Simple Heart at One Esplanade located along Macapagal Ave., Pasay City. Cocktail buffet opens at 7:30 and show starts at 9.

Danilo Sotto, one of the men behind Hardy’s Entertainment, producer of Nina’s show, and CEO of One Esplanade, says the soul siren’s voice and endearing songs fit the occasion best. The venue’s serene ambiance, too, will make the audience feel the romantic mood.

In the show, Nina will dish out heart-warming love songs from the ‘70s and ‘80s as well as some of her romantic songs.

But Nina hastens to add that she won’t be singing songs that would remind the audience of her past loves yet. She assures everyone will feel her love when she renders Suddenly It’s Magic, the song that tells how love blooms anew, now that she’s been going steady with someone for 10 months now.

Joining Nina in the show is Wency Cornejo with Ernie Duque as musical director.

(Produced by JSU Enterprise and Hardy’s Entertainment, tickets to My Simple Heart are priced at P2,500 and P2,000. For details, call 832-5746.)
