  Get ready, because Christian Bautista is about to hit us in the feels! On February 7, 2025 , Asia’s Romantic Balladeer is dropping his latest self-produced single, "Vertigo" , and it’s everything you’d want in a heartbreak anthem. This track dives deep into the chaos of love and loss—the kind of love that lifts you up one moment and leaves you spinning the next.
