REGINE VELASQUEZ is widely famous for her effortless and exceptional belting. She credits this from her father's vocal training technique wherein she is submerged in neck-deep waters and she runs through her singing exercises to strengthen her diaphragm and build up her vocal cords and lungpower. This paved the way for a genre of belting for female singers in Philippine music. Regine has a four-octave range and though she seldom uses whistle register she is skillfully adept in hitting very high notes that require head voice using her chest voice. She can run through a series of very high notes using chest voice alone and is able to hit notes in the fifth to almost sixth octave in full chest voice. She is also popular for her ability to go through her vocal acrobatics while hitting her very high notes. She has exhibited her belting and sheer lung power while singing onstage sitting in lotus position and even while being suspended up on a harness in mid-air. Her B5 in "Reasons" is perceived to be in pure chest voice. The Philippines wasn't just her ground for music, Regine represented the Philippines in the Asia-Pacific Singing Contest held in Hong Kong. On December 23, 1989, she won the contest with her songs, "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "And I'm Telling You". The exposure from the contest sky-rocketed her from Filipino celebrity to Asian music superstar almost overnight, from then on, she was hailed as "Asia's Songbird".

  • regine velasquez's voice is uncomparable and unmatched...all of us has whistle registers...yet the songbird doesnt need to do the whistle just to hit the high notes, her natural falsetto,chest and head tones can do it alone...she can do mixtures of the three that surpassed the whistle technique...whitney,celine,mar­iah,christina,and leona's voice are not even close to what regine has...she's really one in a million,so rare and amazing...songbird reigns forever...

  • Correction @MusicLoverPhil Regine is a Lyric Soprano and a 3 Octaves 1 semiton not 6 Octave Vocal Range

  • Christina's whistle register even sounds much better

  • @SONGBiRD917 kyla can and she did lots of whistle, search kyla singing papaya songs doing several Eb6 and E6 with stunning B5 and D6

  • this is awful

  • For me , She was so great 'cause even though she can do a whistle ... she didn't doing it always as Mariah always do....but Mariah also a great singer and you can compare Regine with Mariah in Whistles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
