Foreign Singers: They also love OPM!

David Pomeranz singing "Pasko na, Sinta ko"...
I first heard this at Unang Hirit wherein David Pomeranz was the guest at exactly 100 days before Christmas. I like the way he sang it. :)



Thalia recorded "Nandito Ako" which was originally sung and composed by Ogie Alcasid. I read that there's a story behind why she chosen this song.
In her First time in the Philippines, on her way to an event she heard the Song "Nandito Ako" on the radio. Thalia loved the song and she said she wanted to learn that song.




Ulan sang by David DiMuzio and Jayson Fernandez of Rivermaya

I Can't Afford That Feeling Anymore

I heard this over the radio... Super sad song.. :(

A Song that Makes me Cry...

Everytime I hear this song from Jamie Rivera, entitled Sino Ako, it always breaks my heart.
I don't know exactly why, maybe because of its lyrics, or something.
But I can still remember, when I was in gradeschool, I saw the lyrics of this song from my father's notebook. I learned that my father when he was still a bachelor, during "kursilista" days.  From then on, I was very eager to learn this song.

Recently I heard this song when my bestfriend's dad died last two weeks ago. I can't help but to cry.

Then yesterday, again, I watched "The Last Seven Words" featured by ABS CBN. A girl named "Angela" sang this song heartily.  Tears fell again....





Hiram sa DIYOS ang aking buhay
Ikaw at akoy tanging handog lamang
Di ko ni nais na akoy isilang
ngunit salamat dahil may buhay
Ligaya ko na akoy isilang pagkat tao ay mayroong dangal
Sino ang may pag ibig sinong nagmamahal
Kung di ang tao DIYOS ang pinagmulan
Kung di ako umibig kung di ko man bigyang halaga
Ang buhay kong handog ang buhay ko ident
ng hiram sa DIYOS
Kung di ako nagmamahal sino ako

Kyla and Rich "The Wedding Proposal"

Queen + Luciano Pavarotti - Too Much Love Will Kill You

Queen + Luciano Pavarotti - Too Much Love Will Kill You

The Man Who Can't be Moved by Jason (Melason video)

I like this video! Played many times.. :)


Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag i’m not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Gaying, “If you see this girl, can you tell her where I am?”

Gome try to hand me money. They don’t understand
I’m not broke I’m just a broken-hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do?
How can I move on when I’m still in love with you?

‘Cause if one day you wake up and find that you’re missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this Earth I could be
Thinkin’ maybe you’ll come back here to the place that we’d meet
And you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

So I’m not moving, I’m not moving

70's Music and Crystal Gayle

Here’s my list of 70’s songs. Most of the songs were remaked by newer generations and yet I do prefer the original song. Before, I was not so familiar with these songs, but because of friends’ influences, you tube browsing addiction, and my enthusiasm to the 70’s music.. these made me love these songs:

It's my first time to see Crystal Gayle in videos.  Very beautiful, talented and graceful! :)


1) YOU AND I by Crystal Gayle and Eddie Rabbit

Just you and I,
Sharing our love together.
And I know in time,
We’ll build the dreams we treasure.
We’ll be all right, just you and I.

2) I NEVER CRY by Alice Cooper

Take away, take away my eyes
Sometimes I’d rather be blind
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don’t you leave it alone

3) BROKEN HEARTED ME by Anne Murray

But I don’t think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No I don’t see how it can if it’s broken all apart
A million miracles could never stop the pain
Or put all the pieces together again

4) CRAZY by Kenny Rogers

Coz you are the dream
that finally came true in me
in all my life there’ll be noone else
if I looked all my life
there could be noone else
and for the rest of my life
all I need is you.

5) I JUST FALL IN LOVE AGAIN by Anne Murray

And though I
Just fall in love again
Just one touch and then it happens every time
There I go I
Just fall in love again
and when I do
I can’t help myself I fall in love with you

6) YOU NEVER GAVE UP ON ME by Crystal Gayle
A golden hit song from a beauty combined with talent, Crystal Gayle.

And you never gave up on me
When I was given love up on you,
Never mattered who was right or wrong,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me,
When I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love

7) I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO LOVE by Leif Garrett

I was looking for someone to love,
And, oh, the heartaches I found;
I was looking for someone to love,
But you were just looking around.

I NEVER DREAMED SOMEONE LIKE YOU COULD LOVE SOMEONE LIKE ME by Katie Irving
Soundtrack of the movie ‘Carrie’. This is the song that played during the prom in ‘Carrie’ when Tommy and Carrie were dancing.

It’s just not true
Couldn’t ask for anymore than you
Because you look at me
As though I’m beautiful
Could it be that you want me
I never dreamed someone like you
Could want someone like me

9) IT TAKES A MAN AND A WOMAN by Teri Desario
Popularized by Teri Desario. Sharon Cuneta has a revival of this song.

It takes a man and a woman to feel what we’re feelin’
And aint it a miracle that you’d take a woman like me
To love a man like you

10) IT’S WRONG FOR ME TO STAY AND LOVE YOU by Pia Zadora
IT’S WRONG FOR ME TO LOVE YOU from the movie BUTTERFLY by PIA ZADORA. Pia Zadora (born Pia Alfreda Schipani, May 4, 1954) is an American actress and singer. Pops Fernandez has a remake of this song.

A love like ours
Where can it go?
I must be strong
‘Cause now i know
It’s wrong for me to stay and love you.

70's Songs Mania

Imagine a 3-4 hours stuck in the traffic, commute..I leave Pasig at around 8pm and arrived at home at 12:30 in the morning! What you can do is to appreciate the music played right in the bus.  Good thing, they played Abba and John Denver songs!  I do love this kind of music.
