First Day Funk - Parokya ni Edgar

Alright, this song is about a student's first day in school.  June is the month for school here in the country.   This song came out on TV screens as the theme song of a TV ad for deodorant and I found it so cool because this body odor is truly an experience of all especially teeners who still go to school.  (Talking from experience ok?).   For this entry, let me talk about deodorants (or anti-perspirant, as you wish).  Once upon a time, deodorants are still to be...

Leaving on a Jet Plane - John Denver

I am aware that there have been many versions of this song and the latest was that version used in the movie Armageddon.  I watched that movie and I should admit, I cried at its ending. I grew up hearing this song as sung by John Denver.  I may be younger than his generation but I love his songs.  As a kid, I couldn't see myself as "leaving on a jet plane" simply because I am afraid of heights. I fear heights especially boarding a plane due to movies showing planes that crash and...

Happy Birthday - Celebration Song

Who wouldn't know about this famous song? It has been the national anthem of everyone where here in the Philippines, the lyrics goes like this: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! In American setting (I see or hear them sing this on movies with birthday scenes), they name the person who is celebrating the birthday.  It goes something like "Happy birthday dear John, Happy birthday to you!" That's the way it normally goes right? But I for one, is not really...

Firework - Katy Perry

I have always wanted to write about this song since the first day I've seen its music video.  The scene was spectacular when a firework was coming out of her heart. It is like saying that life's happiness can be found within.  These feelings do not have to be grand, famous or magnanimous.  What matters is there is happiness at what ever amount or size or status there is. I have all of a sudden wrote about fireworks because I would like to talk about CMFads.  The advertising...

Mahiwaga - Fatima Soriano

There is a TV soap opera in Philippine television launched sometime May.  I watched the pilot episode and the title is 100 days to Heaven (this link will direct you to the trailer of the show via Youtube.)  What made this so significant to me is that this is the only soap opera i watched.  It is not yet finished but as long as I could steal a time from reading my books, I would sneak in and glue my eyes on the tube. It has a good story, I could say. However, I cannot comment too much about it since...

When I'm With You - Faber Drive

Here is another contribution from my reader Quisan... please read on. ======================== When I’m With You by Faber Drive       Music tells exactly what I feel whenever I’m hurt, sad, lonely, in love, happy and especially whenever I encounter heartbreaks. It’s the best way to release my emotions to the point that I could hardly explain my feelings to anyone at least I can sing it. For me, music is my life.  Without it I’m like a dead clock that can’t...

It Must Have Been Love - Roxette

Alright, this is a nice song. When it comes to melody, it will surely captivate your ears. However the song talks about a lost love... one that just disappears for no reason. Then I was reminded of a story of my friend who said his love disappeared for the reason that he felt neglected. In a relationship, sometimes it is nice to feel that one is needed.  It may be too tasking, that is why I said "sometimes" one has to feel that they are needed, especially for the guy who feels that he has...
