Marion Aunor shares her dream with MOR fans

MANILA, Philippines - Star Records’ fast-rising singer-songwriter Marion Aunor confessed that it remains a big challenge for her to be always associated with her aunt, Nora Aunor.

According to Marion, who recently guested in MOR 101.9 For Life! shows, namely Happy Happy Hapon of DJ China Paps, My Only Request of DJ Danny Jay and DJ Popoy, and DJ Bob Zilla’s MOR on Air, if there is something similar between her and Nora, it is their love for music.

“Style-wise, we really sing differently. Tita Nora sings traditional OPM, while I have diverse musical influences,” explained Marion, who recently launched her self-titled debut album under Star Records. “I believe that listeners always look for new music. And that is what my album offers. All of my songs, whether my original compositions or revivals, were arranged according to my singing style.”

“I also want Filipino songs to cross over to other cultures. These days, it’s so easy to distribute music worldwide. However, even if local songs are released out of the country, they are still being listened to only by Filipinos,” said Marion who takes pride in her carrier single, which is a revival of the international hit song Just Give Me A Reason.
