She also took part in "For Kids Only" and "Hiraya Manawari." She became part of the first batch of stars in the hit kiddie afternoon program "Ang TV."

Her father also encouraged little Sarah to train at home for two hours each day.
At fourteen years old, Sarah bested 10 other finalists in the nationwide search for Star For a Night (Philippine Edition) aired at IBC 13 with singer Regine Velasquez as program host.

Sarah signed an exclusive contract with TV giant ABS-CBN and ceased guesting in its rival networks. She starred in teen drama soap entitled Sarah, The Teen Princess in allusion to her cameo role as a child in Sarah, Ang Munting Prinsesa (The Little Princess) wherein she played the role of the main character's (Camille Prats) playmate. She also became a mainstay in the Sunday noontime variety show, ASAP.
She also obtained a multi-million peso advertising endorsement contracts with Jollibee, Charmee, and Talk 'n' Text for Smart Communications.
In November 2004, Sarah released her second album entitled Sweet Sixteen which achieved gold status in one week. The album has since reached double-platinum status, selling more than 60,000 copies.
Sarah with her co-champions Rachelle Ann Go, and Erik Santos (succeeding singing competition champions) staged a concert at the Araneta Coliseum entitled Night of the Champions, which also went on a highly successful tour in the US.
In the field of acting, Sarah played the leading lady opposite singer Mark Bautista, in the fantasy film Lastikman.
Sarah sang the theme of ABS-CBN's reality show Star Circle Quest winners Hero Angeles and Sandara Park's launching movie Can This Be Love, which was released as a maxi-single and achieved gold record status in one month's time.
Sarah also became a mainstay in the fourth season of the teen-oriented show, SCQ Reload, Kilig Ako.
In summer of 2005, Sarah reunited with her fellow champions for a United States Tour of Pinoy Idols: Return Of The Champions, which was staged in selected cities in the U.S. for a two-month period.
Sarah went on to perform in her first major solo concert, The Other Side at the renowned Araneta Coliseum. Viva Records released a live album of said concert that in turn reached a Platinum status.
Sarah was given the lead role in ABS-CBN's top and highest rating primetime soap opera, Bituing Walang Ningning (Lackluster Star), an adaptation of the 1985 Philippine hit movie classic. Here, she starred as aspiring singer Dorina Pineda, a role originally played by Sharon Cuneta.
Her third solo album entitled Becoming released in August 2006, reached gold status in just one week, and Platinum for about a month after.
Sarah continued to spread her wings globally as concerts were successfully staged in Taiwan, Canada, Alaska, and Dubai. The Other Side US Tour had her visit San Diego, Hanford, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Honolulu, Maui, Anaheim, Washington DC and Atlantic City.
While in the US on November 18, 2006, she was given the honor to sing the Philippine National Anthem (Lupang Hinirang) at a global boxing event, the third encounter between super featherweight champ Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao of the Philippines and Erik "El Terrible" Morales of Mexico at the UNLV Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas.
Sarah continues to enthrall Filipino audiences locally and abroad. In 2007 alone, Sarah has toured major cities in the US, Australia, Canada, Europe and UAE.
Sarah is currently a mainstay of ASAP '07, a once-a-week, noontime musical variety show, and also hosts Little Big Superstar, a reality star search program for aspiring child performers that has recently concluded its third season. She is also currently filming episodes for a new primetime soap opera entitled Pangarap Na Bituin, in which she holds the female lead role.
Sarah staged a sold-out second major solo concert last July 14, 2007 at the Araneta Coliseum entitled Sarah Geronimo In Motion. This is also set to go on a 2-month US tour from August to September and will soon be brought to Canada come 2008.
It Takes A Man And A Woman
Sarah Geronimo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To get up so high
One touch of blue
To paint up the sky
And it only takes a master of art
To paint a mother and child
Well it just takes the dawn
One lullaby they do picked on
But these wondrous things
Ain't got what it takes
To make two hearts beat as one
It takes a man and a woman
And one magic moment
To know they're in heaven
It takes a man and a woman
To feel what we’re feelin'
And ain't it a miracle
That you'd take a woman like me
To love a man like you
Well it just takes a rainbow
River to flow
Just take something up
To catch you a rainbow
And if you got sometime
And a ladder to climb
You’ll find the rainbows end
Woah...
Well it just takes some notes
To write a song
La-la-la-la, to sing along
But since Adam and Eve
When feelings get strong
To do what comes naturally
Woah...
It takes a man and a woman
And one magic moment
To know their in heaven
It takes a man and a woman
To feel what we’re feelin'
And ain't it a miracle
That you’d take a woman like me
To love a man like you
It takes a man and a woman
And one magic moment
To know their in heaven
It takes a man and a woman
To feel what we’re feelin’
And aint it a miracle
That you’d take a woman like me
To love a man like you
Take a woman like me
To love a man like you...
The lyrics of Sarah Geronimo's "It Takes A Man And A Woman" are a testament to the power of love and how it takes more than just simple things to make two hearts beat as one. The song talks about how it takes a man and a woman and a one magic moment to know they are in heaven, feel what they are feeling and be amazed by the miracle that a woman like her can love a man like him.
The song draws powerful metaphors like how it takes only a star to make the sky look high, or the dawn to wake up the sun, or even just a simple river to flow. These are all great wonders, but they aren't enough to make two hearts beat together. The real wonder, the real miracle, is in the love between a man and a woman that can bring them to heaven and make them feel as one. Even Adam and Eve had to follow their natural desires to be together and love each other.
Overall, Sarah Geronimo's "It Takes A Man And A Woman" is a love song about the power of our human emotions and how they can drive us to find someone to share our lives with. It teaches the listeners that even though life is full of wonders, miracles, and beauty, what is truly captivating is the connection between two hearts.
