Rachelle was born in Manila, Philippines . Called Shin or Shin-Shin by her friends, Rachelle's interest in singing started at a very young age. Her father predicted even before she turned a year old that she was destined to be a Star. When she turned seven, she underwent vocal training and lessons and, by the time she was nine, she participated in her very first amateur singing competition and won the first prize, belting out Jennifer Holliday's "And I Am Telling You," in spite of being the youngest contender.
She joined and won several contests. Her television debut on "Eat Bulaga!," a hit noon-time variety show, happened when she was just eleven. She competed in the show's contest "Birit Baby" where young aspirants belt out vocally challenging songs. She ended up receiving the runner-up award singing Céline Dion's version of "All By Myself".
In 2003, Rachelle auditioned for a talent search show on television, Search for a Star. Rachelle passed the auditions and made it as one of the twelve finalists. On March 13, 2004 Rachelle was announced as the grand champion singing her rendition of Mariah Carey's "Through the Rain". Several weeks from winning, she collaborated with Philippine rap group Salbakuta for a cover of the Laura Branigan 1980s hit Gloria; she then released it as a CD single and became an instant hit. Rachelle performed the song with the group in the Malacanang Palace, alluding President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
In July 2004, Rachelle released her self-titled debut album with the singles "Love Of My Life" and a remake of "Don't Cry Out Loud". It also includes her own cover version of Selena's "Dreaming of You". She was then part of the Night Of The Champions U.S. Tour opposite Sarah Geronimo and Erik Santos. She then released a duet with Christian Bautista entitled "You And Me (We Wanted It All)". She is also a talent of VIVA Entertainment Group and is part of ABS-CBN, The Kapamilya Network'. She was involved in variety shows such as ASAP and ASAP Fanatic.
During November 2004, Rachelle represented the Philippines in the Shanghai Music Festival where she was a silver medalist for her rendition of a Vehnee Saturno-penned song, "From The Start," which won Best Song followed by an astonishing breakthrough in the 2004 Astana Song Festival as she took an award as silver awardee and for the Best Own Country Song for her version of the song, "Isang Lahi."
In 2005, she was named the Best Promising Female Singer by the Guillermo Mendoza Memorial Scholarship Foundation, a prestigious award giving body recognizing the year's best. On April 29, 2005, she earned top-billing on her very first major solo concert hailed as Rachelle Ann Go, The Ultimate Champion. Rachelle delivered an exceptional performance and the concert has received massive accolades and rave reviews. It was Rachelle's breakaway feat from just being part of the Champions Circle. In here she instituted her mark as a solo recording and performing artist. One of the most notable points of the show was Rachelle's take on Regine Velasquez's R2K Concert airborne act, where she was suspended in mid-air as she opened her show. Later that summer Rachelle reunited with her fellow champions for what was to be their last ensemble concert performance to date. The show entitled Pinoy Idols: Return Of The Champions is a series of shows in the United States. The two-month tour featured Rachelle with contemporaries Sarah Geronimo, Christian Bautista, Mark Bautista, Frenchie Dy and other winners of reality singing competitions.
On November 2005, Rachelle released her second album I Care under VIVA Records. At the same time, she hosted the second season of the reality show Search For The Star In A million alongside her fellow champs Erik Santos, Sheryn Regis, and Mark Bautista. The album reached Gold status selling 15,000 copies nationwide.
She recently released her third album entitled "Obsession" with her label, VIVA Records. Rachelle is also set to perform in a Valentine’s show with singer, Christian Bautista in February 2007 at the Aliw Theater entitled You & Me.
In late 2005, Rachelle was rumored to fellow champion Christian Bautista. The romantic balladeer courted her for almost 2 years. They finally became lovers on February 2006. But unfortunately their relationship lasted only for 1 year and 8 months because on November 2007 both of them decided to be "quits" due to the lack of time of togetherness and personality differences. The two remained as "FRIENDS".
VOCAL CAPABILITIES Rachelle Ann Go is known for her exquisite belting ability and her powerful control of her whistle register. She is capable and skilled in hitting high notes and is one of the few Filipina singers equipped and able to hit notes from the fourth to the sixth octave usually done in her famous whistle register.

Dreaming of You
Rachelle Ann Go Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Wonder if you ever see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far all I have a dreams of you
So I wait for the day
And the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do!
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
I can't stop dreaming of you
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti
I can't stop dreaming
Cômo te necesito
I can't stop dreaming of you
Mi amor, cômo te extraño
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe
That you came up to me and said "I love you"
I love you too!
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming with you endlessly
Dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Endlessly
And I'll be holding you tight
Dreaming...with you...tonight!

The singer confesses to staying up at night thinking about their loved one and wishing on a star that somewhere, their loved one is thinking of them too. The song envisions the singer holding the loved one tight, describing the joy of being together with them. The song also evokes feelings of desperation and hopelessness, as the singer wonders whether their loved one knows that they exist and longs for them.
Throughout the song, the singer’s emotions run high as they express their love and desire for their significant other. The line, “And I still can't believe/ That you came up to me and said I love you,” reveals the sense of disbelief at the love being reciprocated. The character's vulnerability is highlighted when they question, “If you looked in my eyes, would you see what's inside? Would you even care?” The song ends on a hopeful note, with the character dreaming of being with their significant other endlessly.
Overall, Rachelle Ann Go's "Dreaming Of You" is a beautifully evocative love song that captures the feelings of a person deeply in love with someone they can't be with. The song's melancholic tone, poetic lyrics, and the singer's powerful voice make it a moving and memorable piece of music.
Line by Line Meaning
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
During the late hours of the night when nearly everyone is asleep
I stay up and think of you
I am unable to sleep and keep thinking about you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
I hope that you exist somewhere
Thinking of me too
And you are also thinking about me
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Because I am dreaming about you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
I will dream about holding you until the next day
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
There is no place that I want to be more than here, dreaming of you
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Specifically, I prefer to be in my room, imagining what it would be like to spend time with you
Wonder if you ever see me
I contemplate whether or not you even notice me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
I am unsure if you are aware of my presence
If you looked in my eyes
If you were to gaze into my eyes
Would you see what's inside
Would you be able to see the emotions and feelings that reside within me
Would you even care?
Do you have any sense of concern or regard for me?
I just wanna hold you close
All I really want is to be close to you
But so far all I have a dreams of you
Thus far, the only way I have been able to experience any kind of closeness with you is through my dreams
So I wait for the day
Therefore, I patiently look forward to a forthcoming day
And the courage to say how much I love you
On which I will have enough bravery to express how deeply I am in love with you
Yes I do!
It's true!
I can't stop dreaming of you
I cannot refrain from dreaming about you
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti
I cannot stop thinking about you, even in Spanish
Cômo te necesito
How much I need you
Mi amor, cômo te extraño
My love, how much I miss you
And I still can't believe
I remain dumbfounded
That you came up to me and said 'I love you'
That you unexpectedly approached me and declared your love to me
I love you too!
I reciprocate those same loving feelings toward you
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Currently, I am imagining spending time with you in my dreams
Till tomorrow and for all of my life
I will continue to imagine being with you, for now and always
Endlessly
My hope is that this cycle of dreamlike images goes on infinitely
And I'll be holding you tight
I imagine that I am holding you close
Dreaming...with you...tonight!
Falling asleep whilst imagining being with you
