Now considered a Filipino Christmas anthem, “Star ng Pasko,” about hope and unity amid challenges, was launched in 2009 in the aftermath of typhoon Ondoy.

The release of “Family is Forever” marks the 10th anniversary of that iconic station ID, as well as the 65th year of ABS-CBN.

Performed by “The Voice Kids” finalists and coaches Sarah Geronimo, Bamboo, and Lea Salonga, the new medley also includes the memorable songs “Thank You for the Love,” “Just Love Ngayong Pasko,” and “Family is Love.”
