Screencap from the 10 minute footage

10 minutes before midnight, Regine Velasquez performed "Written in the Sands" with 200 children in the roof of The Peninsula Manila.

Availability

Several footage of the special exists on the internet but he full 25-hour broadcast hasn't yet resurfaced. In 2020, a channel named ThrowbackRegineVelasquezPH uploaded the 10 minutes before midnight footage but was deleted.[3] A 2 minute of the video was re-uploaded by Roselle Marasigan in 2021.[4] A live version of Written in the Sands was uploaded by Danny Tan on 2020[5] and Eraserheads performing during the special.[6] Philippine Television Archives archivist and co-owner theFoggy asked Danny Tan if he has tapes of the coverage, and he said yes among the 12 VHS tapes he has but it is too expensive to digitize it all.

On April 24, 2022, RV Rewind reuploaded the 10 minutes before midnight footage albeit only Regine's performance was shown.[7]
