LOVE OF A LIFETIME

Another great song in time for the love month...

by FIREHOUSE


I guess the time was right for us to say

We'd take our time and live our lives together day by day
We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
We know our dreams can all come true
With love that we can share

With you I never wonder - Will you be there for me
With you I never wonder - You're the right one for me

Chorus:
I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart, I finally found the love of a lifetime

With every kiss our love is like brand-new
And every star up in the sky was made for me and you
Still we both know that the road is long
(But) We know that we will be together
Because our love is strong

Chorus

***This song was written by C.J. Snare (lead vocalist of Firehouse) who said that he wrote it while playing solo gigs. When the band brought the demos for their first album to Epic records, the label felt that the album needed a stronger ballad. Snare said "[I remember] raising my hand sheepishly and saying "Well, I have a song...," so we played it for them and they absolutely loved it and it did become a big hit."

RIGHT HERE WAITING...(LIVE)

RIGHT HERE WAITING

by Richard Marx


Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
How can we say forever

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' CrAzY

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' cRaZy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

YOU WERE MINE

Malapit na ngang VALENTINE at dahil wala namang kadate sa araw na yon ay idadaan ko na lang sa pagpopost ng ilang mga awitin na syempre pa'y may temang tungkol sa pag-ibig...gaya nitong kantang You were mine na pinasikat ng grupong DIXIE CHICKS na nagmula sa kanilang 1998 album na Wide Open Spaces.

Ang grupong ito ay isa sa dahilan kung bakit nahilig ako sa pakikinig ng folk and country music at magpahanggang ngayon ay nananatili silang isa sa haligi ng country music sa Amerika.

Ang Tipo Kong Lalaki (Ilokano version)

Remember DJ Alvaro?...Siya ang pinay singer na nagpasikat ng kantang Ang Tipo kong lalake noong 1990's na talaga namang naging malaking hit ito ng mga panahong iyon. Katunayan ay ginawang pamagat din ito ng pelikula sa Viva Films kung saan ang naging bida ay walang iba kundi ang TV-host comedian na si Joey De Leon!...

Pero di po yan ang main post ko dito kundi ang ilokano bersyon ng kantang yan. Di ko sure kung kelan nirekord ito ni DJ Alvaro pero ang sigurado ko ay hindi ito kasama sa kanyang casette album noon na may pamagat na Bagong Babae (1996).

Anyway, Try nyong dinggin ang iloko bersyon nito (lalo na sa mga ilokano jan!). Nagmayat!...daydiay lang ti makunak!

LOVE IS A GOOD THING!

I consider Sheryl Crow as the most talented female performer who does it all (writes, produces, plays instruments, sings) while remaining a commercially successfully artist and at the same time retains her credibility...

The song below is one of her best live acoustic recording. It's not a love song actually...it's a song that contains a message that makes you want to rebel.

MADONNA: LIKE A PRAYER (Hope for Haiti)

Pop icon MADONNA performed a respectable, hushed rendition of LIKE A PRAYER, one of the cuts in HOPE FOR HAITI NOW- an album that featured amazing and one of a kind performances in Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief concert. Listen it below!
