"Thank you for spending your Valentine's Day with us," Regine Velasquez told the audience.
Asia's Songbird officially made a comeback to the concert scene on the evening of February 14, 2012.
She took a hiatus from showbiz nine months ago, after announcing her pregnancy.
Meantime, Ogie said, "Salamat at kami ang pinili niyong maging date..."
Indeed, the Smart Araneta Coliseum filled up for the concert billed Mr. & Mrs. A.

The concert provided viewers a glimpse into the married life of Ogie and Regine.
Just like ordinary couples, they're not perfect.
In one video, Regine described Ogie as "malikot lang matulog, sinasakop yung buong kama."
But despite the quirks, Ogie said, "Napakasarap ng buhay may asawa."

To keep the energy level high, Ogie went to the audience area while singing two of his dance hits, "Sumayaw, Sumunod" and "Dito Sa Puso Ko." Clearly, this picture shows the audience approved!

One of the best songs Regine rendered that night: "Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin," which was originally sung by Ariel Rivera.

In the middle of Regine's song, the voice of Vice Ganda was heard, "Anong maingay? Nasaan si Regine?"
Instantly, the mood in the big dome changed.
Here are some of Vice's witticisms:
1. Addressing the crowd at the General Admission area: "Ayaw nila tayong makita, gusto nila tayong marinig."
2. Talking to Regine: "Hindi ka naman mataba. Singkit lang kami lahat."
3. While training Regine to become a singer: "May boses ka. Sayang, e, kung di ka made-develop."

Their translate-the-line portion, where Vice handled the "gay lingo" version, was hilarious!

Then when it was time for the two performers to turn serious, the crowd turned quiet, happy to absorb their beautiful rendition of "Minsan Lang Kitang Mamahalin."

There was a Whitney Houston medley, to honor the singer who died on the eve of the Grammy Awards. The medley was a last-minute addition, according to director Randy Santiago.
As a tribute to one of her idols, Regine sang "I Will Always Love You," "Run To You," and "I Have Nothing."
Without doubt, Regine could do a Whitney!

David Archuleta dropped by to sing "Nandito Ako" with the Alcasid couple.

Just before the finale, the videos and photos of Regine right after she gave birth to baby Nate were shown.

Then for the finale, they sang "Ikaw Lamang."
And even if it was already past 11:00 p.m., most people stayed for the encore.

Ogie and Regine thanked the sponsors and partners in the form of a rap song. Here, the concert flashes PEP's name as one of the couple's media partners.

Direk Randy, seen here at his director's table, said it was no sweat directing the concert of Mr. and Mrs. A.
"Alam na alam na nila ang ginagawa nila, e. At saka nagkatrabaho na kami dati," he said.
