The two beloved artists turn quiet moments into symbols of joy and connection in a heartfelt visual narrative
If we take the time to observe them, even the most basic events in life can have the greatest significance.
The current single, “Rainbow,” which features Indonesian pop icon Raisa and Asia’s Romantic Balladeer Christian Bautista, is centered around this understanding. The music video, which was just released, tenderly depicts hope, connection, and the beauty of the commonplace.
The visual story takes place at a picturesque café in Jakarta, where both artists are enjoying a peaceful escape from the busy craziness of contemporary city life.
“The video is about how the simplest, most ordinary moments in our day can actually become the ‘rainbows’ we need — small sparks of hope that make a big difference,” shares Christian Bautista. “The music video was directed by Jonathan Tal Placido of Toothless Productions. He and his team flew to Jakarta to make this vision come alive, and they captured that message beautifully.”
Delicately crafted, the music video mirrors the song’s lyrical warmth with cinematic grace. Every frame invites viewers to rediscover fulfillment hidden within everyday experiences: coffee shared between friends, laughter exchanged across a table, and the peace found in simply being present.
Beyond its narrative, “Rainbow” also celebrates harmony between cultures. The collaboration between Christian Bautista and Raisa bridges Filipino and Indonesian artistry, and the choice to film in Jakarta infuses the visuals with an authentic sense of place and emotional truth.
“The city added warmth, texture, and authenticity to the visuals and helped us reflect the connection the song celebrates,” he explains.
“It was so exciting,” Bautista adds of working with Raisa once more. “Our biggest challenge was really scheduling — but once it finally happened, we were both thrilled to bring this project to life. Seeing it all come together after months of planning was such a rewarding moment.”
The music video for “Rainbow” honors common beauty and the unspoken ties that bind people together across national boundaries. Christian Bautista and Raisa’s collaboration serves as a reminder to listeners that happiness frequently comes from the little things in life rather than the big or spectacular.
