MANILA - Celebrity couple Regine Velasquez and Ogie Alcasid recorded "Maskara," the main theme song of ABS-CBN's newest series "Lavender Fields," starring Jodi. Sta. Maria.

The song was composed by Alcasid and Velasquez, and produced by Star Music executive Jonathan Manalo. 

In a video shared by Manalo on Monday, Velasquez and Alcasid talked about the message of the song. 

"So Regine and I wrote the song. The essence of the song is to say tanggalin mo na 'yung maskara mo. Mamahalin kita kahit sino ka man at matutunan mo ring mahalin ang sarili mo," Alcasid said.

"It was a wonderful experience for me working with my husband again. This song is actually dedicated to those people na itinatago mo kung ano ang 'yung totoong ikaw, ayaw mo kasing masaktan. So parang you'd rather hide your real self to protect your self," Velasquez shared.

For Manalo, he believes that a lot of people will relate to the song which is about real-life experiences.

"Pakiramdam ko marami ang makaka-relate rito sa 'Maskara' na theme song kasi lahat tayo at some point in our lives nagkaroon tayo ng episode  na magpapakatatotoo ba ako o maglalagay ako ng front? Ipapakita ko ba kung sino ang talagang ako baka hindi nila ako magustuhan. Grabe 'yung sinasabi ng message ng song. It talks about 'yung totoong pinagdadaanan nating lahat in real life," Manalo shared.

The full track will be available on all digital platforms worldwide this Friday,  September 6.

Also starring Jericho Rosales and Janine Gutierrez, "Lavender Fields," a Dreamscape Entertainment production under ABS-CBN Studios is now playing on Netflix and on iWantTFC.
