The lead single ("Haplos") was the first song performed by Richards. When the first demo was heard by the management, they were impressed by the outcome. Their common feedback was that Richards really had good musical skills. Though Richards experienced some difficulty in recording sessions with regard to his busy schedule, he still found enjoyment in every single moment of it. In his exclusive interview in the music magazine ''Pinoy'' (April - May issue), he confirmed that he recorded five remakes and one original composition by Vince Rod Katindoy, member and composer of Shamrock. The final track listing consisted of seven tracks including his covers of "Naaalala Ka" by Rey Valera, "Di Na Mababawi" by Spongecola and Itchyworms' "Akin Ka Na Lang" and his carrier single, Shamrock's "Haplos". He expressed that the album doesn't include "belting songs," but consists of ballads that are cool and relaxing to hear, and that he hopes for his album to reach gold status and not have any negative feedback. In October 2015, Universal Records released a special edition of the album which includes AlDub theme song "God Gave Me You" by Bryan White. The song was frequently dubbed by Alden Richards in ''Eat Bulaga!s ''Kalyeserye''. Richards' version of the song is included in his 2015 album ''Wish I May''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alden Richards (EP)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
