Source-derived summary

One Heart is the eighth studio album by Filipino singer Sarah Geronimo, released in the Philippines on May 13, 2011, by Viva Records. The album consists mainly of original songs and cover songs of OPM classics.

In 2011, Geronimo won the "Best Female Recording Artist" on the Box Office Entertainment Awards.

In 2012, it received the 'Best Selling Album of the Year' and 'Most Downloaded Song' for "Sino Nga Ba Siya" in the 25th Awit Awards.

Singles

The first single was entitled "Sino Nga Ba Siya" and was released in December 2010. It became a teaser to the album that features sentimental tracks, generally about heartaches.

"Kung Siya Ang Mahal" was released in May 2011 as the second commercial single from the album.

"Bakit Pa Ba" was released in August 2011 as the third commercial single from the album. The song was originally recorded by Jay R in 2003, but the lyrics were changed as it speaks of what happened to the ex-lover.

Critical reception

Baby A. Gil of The Philippine Star was impressed with the original Filipino compositions, stating "It truly gladdens the heart that, Sarah, who is one of the country’s top hitmakers today has gone back, not only to Saturno songs but to other original Filipino compositions as well."

Nickie Wang of Manila Standard Today noticed Geronimo's improvement, saying "Though Sarah is sending different messages from what the new album really speaks of, one fact is undeniable; she is mending a broken heart and it’s evident on how she rendered the songs in the album.

Why this record matters
