author: music247We live a separate world nowWe have grown older and wow!I can always feel your hand on my faceThose memories I can't erase!There are a lot of words I want to sayI can only make it this wayThrough the songs that I sing and playThe only place where our love will stay...I love you in each passing minuteI know I can only let you feel itI have loved you foreverIt may even be more than ever.****I just can't say much but you know I made this for you. I heard this song I know this is meant for you.****If you're...

I was in third year college when she first entered the University. She was from Bicol province and eased her way to blend in with people. She was a shy girl, and really quiet.It was my first time to stay at the dorm, BREHA (UP Baguio Residence Hall), where most parents entrust their kids particularly the girls, during their first year. The dorm only accommodates around 60 female first year students and the remaining slots are alloted to higher years. She was lucky she got a slot. I am referring to my friend Aubrey.When...

This song reminds me to be humble. I know somebody who is very proud and wouldn't admit any mistakes. One way or the other, you have encountered a person full of pride who deleted the word "sorry" from their vocabulary. It's a sad world when all our fingers are pointed to other people, blame everything to him or to her but not to ourselves.People like them just makes me wanna puke and abhor the world more but I tried to keep my cool... which we should do in most cases. I know saying sorry is just...

This is such a sad song which reminds me of all the broken hearted people. I remember a lot of them and that includes some of my closest friends and loved ones.Whatever happens to the love that seemed so real at the beginning. It was so full of sweetness, commitment, affection and the happy-ever-afters. I know life is truly to make up then break up then make up again. There is always a cycle.I have my own share of broken promises that's why in my previous post, I said I've had enough of making promises. Many times have...

Today marks the birth of our National Hero, Jose Rizal. Incidentally, this is also the birthday of my angel.I remember playing this song a few years ago, from one of my CD collections. I used to play loud music in our house and while my angel Sophie was cleaning the house, she commented: "Why are you playing a music for the dead?" At the back of my head, I wondered why this song was associated with death. The answer is because this is seldom played during interment / burial.I told her this is a religious music, in fact...

Today marks the first year of my iPod with me. I am a “date-keeper” for your information. I have mentioned to you about my dear friend Dane whom I truly call Mr. Boombastic that is why this entry is all about him. We used to be “phone pals”, like your dear friend at the other end of the phone line. He is such a special friend because as matter of fact, he was my supervisor. But I didn’t feel that way while we are on the phone almost everyday of our professional life for two years or so.As soon as my phone rings, more often...

This is a story why I am so engrossed about the number 17.The aftermath of the Mt. Pinatubo eruption here in the Philippines that happened in 1991 led me to my story about this song. Let me first say I learned about this song and its lyrics, including the artist who sang it, from my sister.It was June 17, 1991 when my father's cousin and his family left Pampanga and found their way into our house. They fled their place in Pampanga because of the eruption of the volacano and its threat to the health of his kids, who were...

It was the 90s when my brother and I watched the concert of Gary V. The Divine Word Academy of Dagupan (DWAD) Gym was the biggest stage that time. We came in early so we were able to see him rehearse. We were almost at the stage with Gary while he was preparing for the big night. It was almost very dark then the crowd slowly gathered inside.I remember this scene just yesterday. I went back to that school which is where my niece and nephew are currently enrolled. I always associate that place with this singer/actor because...

It was Barry Manilow's birthday last June 17 and I was browsing some of my friends' photos online and there was one picture of Barry Manilow from his recent concert in Las Vegas. I just can't help but blog about another Barry Manilow classic which is one of the favorites. And this is the one!I particularly liked the song because of its upbeat music. I remember singing this song with the "multiplex tape" since videokes were soon to be invented. Remember playing a cassette tape on a "karaoke" player and when a song is finished,...

I was born a "Piscean" (Pisces)although I am not really the type who is so particular about horoscopes. I just thought it's blog-worthy because it also reminds me of a dear friend, a close one. She is likewise a "piscean" and when we had a program at school which required us to use a codename, I recommended she use this one because from my reading of a mug given to me, it said that a person born under the zodiac sign of Pisces is a dreamer.I also told her about this song, sung by one of my favorite singers. Sol (her name)...

We celebrate Philippine Independence Day on the 12th of June. We remember Emilio Aguinaldo as he waved the Philippines flag which is a symbol of our freedom. That is why the month of June is also observed as the month of the Philippine flag.I wonder how we are going to guage our freedom nowadays when statistics would show the growing number of our feloowmen living below poverty line. We are still tied to gargantuan foreign debts, children are malnourished, firshermen and farmers are among the poorest people in the country.This...
