Marco Sison started his singing career after his triumph of a singing segment of Student Canteen, a noontime variety show. He lasted undefeated in the show for 14 weeks. He won around 1977 or 1978 and received various offers.

Best of Marco Sison was released on 1991 under Universal Records. It comprised music of romance and easy-listening, the style accepted in the Philippines by the time. He possessed a resonant baritone and crooned like any romantic singers especially Matt Monroe. In fact, his "My Love Will See You Through" seemed based on Walk Away of Monroe in 1960.

Another hit song in the Philippines is named "Si Aida, Si Lorna, O Si Fe". It is an unusual, somewhat campy song, apparently based on American vaudeville. Usually, his crooning was accompanied by a piano or a string section. Horns were heard in tracks like "Ibigay Mo Sa Akin Ang Bukas". Its not difficult to imagine Matt Monroe singing in the album especially in numbers like "Make Believe", "Always", "I'll Face Tomorrow", "Mahal" and "Ibigay Mo Sa Akin Ang Bukas". Another interesting track, "Isusumbong Kita Sa Diyos" opened in a minor key and found resolution in a major key.
After All These Years was released by Marco Sison on 1992. The album contained easy-listening and middle-of-the-road ballads which is quite popular during the time. The album contained ten cut and eight of them were slow while the other, "Mahal Kita" possessed the spirit and "Miss Manikin" is a fully upbeat & Latin-inflected. His strong, silky voice is well-suited in handling passionate, easy-listening ballads. His performance in Miss Manikin is dealt with confidence and can probably handle upbeat songs but he is not given the opportunity to do so aside from this one song. Marco Sison performed these songs like a seasoned Matt Monroe.

After the compilation album, Best of Marco Sison which was released on 1991, Marco Sison released his Best of Marco Sison 2 on 2004. His breakout song of the album was "Make Believe".

Lirio Vital (Lirio Sebastian Lalata in real life) was born on February 8 in Manila but spent her growing years in Makati. Her screen name Vital came from the last name of her paternal grandmother. Her father, Victor Lalata had his roots from Pangasinan, while her mother, Feliciana Sebastian from Virac, Catanduanes lived most of her life in Manila.
Lirio finished high school at the Pio Del Pilar High School in Makati. She took a 2-year course in Communication Arts at the Philippine Women’s University. She was later on inspired to further her studies at the University of the Philippines Conservatory of Music, upon the advise of her mentor, Armida Siguion-Reyna.

As she matured, Lirio’s singing career started to blossom. She became a contract star of Alpha Record, which was also the same recording company that launched the singing career of Nora Aunor. Lirio made her first record, “Beautiful Love” with Alpha. A few years later, she joined Vicor Music Entertainment Company, a Black Record affiliate.
Her career peaked during the early 70’s. As that period was quite turbulent, the talents who were launched the same time she was did not survive the times. Among her contemporaries, Lirio was the only artist who survived the 70’s and who was able to move on towards other fields in the business. With Mina Aragon, Head of Vicor Music Entertainment as her manager, she was able to start a new recording career with Black Record.

Part of Lirio’s singing career was her participation in “Balik Saya” together with Bert “Tawa” Marcelo.” “Balik Saya”, was organized by Lilia Andolong as a project to promote Philippine Tourism under the leadership of Doroy Valencia. “Balik Saya” was an outreach program – aimed to reach out to the Filipino communities in the different parts of the world. They toured the Middle East, Europe, and the United States. She also belonged to the ASEAN Artist Exchange, where she represented the Philippines.
Lirio has performed with Larry Gibbs and Billy Preston, and a trio performance with Pilita Corrales and Carmen Soriano at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
