Gaudencio A. Sillona III, popularly known as Jay-R, was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. He was 2nd year college, taking up Computer Engineering, in Devry University in L.A. when he decided to come here and fulfill his dream... to become a singer.
He was once a part of a group named FI (First Impression). The group consisted of 5 guys namely: Mike Gabriel, Alex Bacani, Jayr Sillona, Jimmy Martinez (who came with Jay-R to Manila) and Owen Amurao. When Mike, Owen and Alex went their separate ways, Jay-R and Jimmy continued the group by adding another talented singer named Kris Cadevida. They would do gigs in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Michigan.
Jay-R also belonged to a band that was lead by his Uncle, Robert Sillona. The band was called The Howlers. Being part of his uncle’s band was a huge part in Jay-R’s career... it taught him the ways of the stage!
He is currently signed under Universal Records. His first album, aptly titled ‘Game Face’, has 12 tracks on it, containing 2 original Tagalog songs: “Kaibigan”, written by his sister, Jhing Sillona; and “Bakit Pa Ba?” written by Vehnee Saturno. Most of the other songs on the album are RnB. He writes and produces his own songs. His first single “Design for Love” is a hip-hop/ RnB single that exhibits Jay-R’s amazing talent in singing and dancing.

Sana Ay Ikaw Na Nga
Jay R Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ikaw ay minamahal ko
Kailangan ko'y katulad mo sa buhay kong Ito
Nagiisa lang sa mundo
Dati'y nasaktan ako takot nang magtiwala
Ayoko na sanang umibig pa
Ngunit ika'y ibang-iba sa lahat ng nakilala
Sana ay ikaw na nga
Anong kailangan kong gawin upang matigil na ang kabaliwan kong ito
Sumpa ko sa sarili
Ay hinding hinding-hindi na
Ngunit heto na naman ako
Hindi na papipigil pa at di na paaawat
Sinisigaw na ang pangalan mo
Ikaw talaga'y ibang-iba sa lahat ng nakilala
Sana ay ikaw na nga
Oh
Anong kailangan kong gawin upang matigil na ang kabaliwan kong ito
Sumpa ko sa sarili
Ay hinding hinding-hindi na
Ngunit heto na naman ako
Hindi na papipigil na at di na paaawat
Sinisigaw na ang pangalan mo
Ikaw talaga'y ibang-iba sa lahat ng nakilala
Sana'y ikaw na nga (oh)
Oh oh yeah oh

The first verse talks about how the singer has been hurt in the past and is afraid to love again. He says that he doesn't want to fall in love anymore, but the person he loves is different from anyone he has ever known. He hopes that this person is the one who will love him back.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Sana ay ikaw na nga" which translates to "I hope it’s you already." The singer is calling out to the person he loves, telling them they are different from anyone he has ever met and that he hopes it's them who will love him back.

@cheenoandaya4287
💔 kahit alam ko yung totoo. Kaylangan kong tangapin ang katotohanan. Kaylangan itago ang emosyon ko para sa ikakabuti ng taong mahal ko. Lord ikaw na ang bahala sakin never mo akong pinabayaan. Patawad dahil hinayaan kong masaktan ang puso ko kahit alam kong sa una palang eto ang mangyayari .
