Just A Love Song...Live! is the first live album released by Filipino singer Christian Bautista in 2006 [ [http://www.christianbautistaonline.com/wss/career.html Christian Bautista Online] ] . The album is composed of 19 revival tracks from the 70's up to the 90's [ [http://www.opmusikahan.com/search/label/Christian%20Bautista Original Pinoy Musikahan] ] . It was released in the Philippines and Indonesia by Warner Music in CDs and DVDs.

Background

Initially, Christian initially refused to create a wholly-revival album saying that "...I didn’t want to seem to be jumping on the bandwagon". But he realized that "...it was time for me to offer something new at this point"(for his fans).cite web |url= http://www.mb.com.ph/issues/2007/02/04/ENTR2007020486265.html|title= Christian Bautista woos CD buyers back with ‘Love Song’|accessdate=2008-08-22 |author= Jojo P. Panaligan|date= 02-04-2007|work= |publisher=Manila Bulletin]

A brainstorming session was then made between Christian, his managers and Warner Music Philippines, after which the final list of tracks for the album was made.
