PRESENT  sa launch ng first single ni Joyce Pring na “Baka Sakali” ang rumored boyfriend niyang si Juancho Trivino. Si Juancho ang dahilan kaya natapos ni Joyce ang pagsulat ng naturang awitin.

Makailang beses nang nasaktan at nabigo sa pag-ibig si Joyce at sumuko na siya noon.

Pero muling nagkaroon ng puwang ang pag-ibig sa puso niya nang dumating sa buhay niya si Juancho.

“We have all been jaded by love. I didn’t want to take chances anymore,” pahayag ni Joyce.

“But late last year, someone tried. Looks like now it is working.

“The song is about new beginnings, to give yourself the chance to hope again. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever done in my life.

“I don’t think it’s just love because if you have a person beside you who helps you without asking for anything in return, then you’ll do good.

“I couldn’t be prouder of ‘Baka Sakali.’

“I’m convinced that this is where my heart is, a kind of in-between space that’s courageous enough to admit resolute fears, but also bold enough to say, I’m willing to try again.”

Bata pa lang si Joyce ay mahilig na siyang kumanta. Naging member pa siya ng church choir.

“For many years, I have enjoyed my work as a broadcaster and TV presenter, but not a lot of people know that my first love was always music and writing.

“At the age of 14, I fronted my first ever band, and we would perform classic rock songs at school events, and in different competitions.”

Sinulat ni Joyce ang “Baka Sakali” with Rico Blanco.

“Rico Blanco and I have been friends, we hang out . I only had lyrics and melody but Rico helped me make it happen.

“You can now download it on streaming sites. I have written a lot of songs but I have some that are very sad.

“That to me is very personal so I don’t think I actually have the courage to share that yet,” sinabi pa ni Joyce.”

Kahit busy sa kanyang hosting sa GMA si Joyce via “Unang Hirit,” “Artistambayan” at “Stand For Truth,” puwede niya nang isingit ang singing and hopefully work with other artists.

“I want to focus on hosting and singing this year. I’d love to work with Christian Bautista and Julie Anne San Jose.

“I hope to release more songs in the future. A concert is also in my bucket list, but now we have to do this first. God is so good!”
