Singing career

Sison started his singing career after his triumph on a singing contest in Channel 7's noontime variety show Student Canteen in the late 70's and early 80's. Being one of the classic balladeers to have captured the true vocal essence of OPM in the '80s, Sison was responsible for the songs My Love Will See You Through [his biggest hit thus far], Si Aida, Si Lorna, O Si Fe, I'll Face Tomorrow, Always and Make Believe.
In 1991, the Philippine independent record company, Universal Records, released Best of Marco Sison.

In 1999, Sison released Memories, his first album for local independent record company, Viva Music Group. One of the international hits covered by Sison in the said album is Crazy. The album also includes Someone That I Used To Love and Kung Maibabalik Ko Lang.
May Iba Ka Na Ba? is the first single lifted from Sison's comeback album, Hindi Ko Akalain, released by Star Records.
