CARELESS WHISPER



...nawish siguro yan ng sexy starlet na si Katrina Halili matapos lumabas ang sex video nila ni Hayden Kho, kung saang ito ay isa sa mga pinakakontrobersyal at pinag-usapang balita sa taong 2009.

Pero ME- kung si Hayden din lang ang magiging kapartner ko ay sasayaw talaga ako ng bonggang-bongga!...As in!... hanggang sa abutin pa kaming sumayaw sa ibabaw ng kama with matching cam on the ceiling!


Anyway, bukod sa sex video scandal na yan im pretty sure na merong isang bagay pa na hindi makakalimutan nina Katrina at Hayden sa tanang buhay nila- ito ay ang kantang Careless Whisper by Wham. Sa mga nakapanood ng clip ay alam na kung bakit. At para naman sa hindi pa ay iclick na lang ang kanta sa ibaba at pakinggan ang isang magandang bersyon nina Rufus Wainwright at Ben Folds.

PASKO NA NAMAN (GLOC 9 STYLE)


Dalawang araw na lang PASKO na!....Panay na rin ang patugtog ko ng ilang mga paboritong awiting pamasko. At syempre pa, isa dyan ay ipopost ko dito!....



Chorus: pasko na naman, o kay tulin ng araw.
Paskong nagdaan tila bago kaylan lang.
Ngayon ay pasko dapat pasalamatan.
Ngayon ay pasko tayo ay mag awitan.
(namamasko po!)

Verse 1: nasubukan mo na bang mangarolin pag pasko sa tabi ng riles
Sa kahirapan ng buhay laging gulay noche buena mo ay dilis.
Lumalamig ang simoy ng hangin pero wala ka namang jacket.
Kung trabaho ko lang ay maid na wala kang pera pero teka muna ni wala ka ngang wallet!
Habang lahat ay nag shoshopping wala kang magawa kundi humimbing.
At pagkagising kayod para makakain laging sinasalubong ng hangin.
At ano ba sa palagay mo ang dapat na gawin ng isang tulad,
Ko na sa pasko ay mas mabuti pang mabingi at mabulag,
Habang inaawit ang (chorus 2x)

Verse 2: habang ang mga ibang bata'y puro bago at sa kapatid moy luma
Sabihin mo sakin kung pano ko pipigilin ang luha.
Pero teka lang meron nang pambili ng bigas na hindi pwedeng pangregalo.
Kahit ano gawin ay madilim parin kasi naputulan na kami ng meralco.
Hindi makapagsimba ka si ko nawalan ng pamasahe
Tuwing may handaan ay laging hindi ka makasali
Pati na mga namamalimos na mga bata sa kalsada
Hanggang sa susunod na pasko ay may magbago sana, para makaawit ng (chorus 3x)

PIOLO PASCUAL: DECADES


Nilaunch sa ASAP 09 last Sunday ang bagong album ni Piolo Pascual. Ito ay ang DECADES Songs from the 50'S, 60'S, 70'S released under Star records. Medyo nagulat pa ako ng malaman kong ikaanim na album na pala nya to!...I know na may mga hit singles na rin sya in the past at bumenta naman talaga ang kanyang mga records but it really surprised me na nakaraming album na pala sya. Hanggang ngayon kasi e hindi pa nagsi-sink-in sa akin na isa nga pala siyang recording artist.

Eniwey, yun na nga may bagong album si Papa P!...at dahil puro revival ang concept ng material e pang-Cover Corner naman talaga ang dating nito.

Kung nasanay tayo na napapanood at naririnig siyang kumakanta ng puro pop songs, dito ay pawang mga standards songs ang mga inawit niya...


Collector's Item naman talaga ang DECADES dahil nasa loob nito ang 12 standard tracks na nirecord ng live, 12 best photos ni PP to represent each songs, the lyrics at may calendar pa. :D

LEONA LEWIS covers an OASIS song!


The X-Factor winner LEONA LEWIS is back with a new album titled ECHO...and one track included in the album is her own rendition of OASIS song, STOP CRYING YOUR HEART OUT.



The Oasis cover is undoubtedly an impressive peak, as Lewis magically transforms the rock spark into a fire of emotion with a soulful choir and smashing high notes. In other word- excellent!

IM ON FIRE!


I'm definitely on fire with this horny pic by John Mayer!...Gosh!...with that candid shot e super hot papa naman talaga ang dating niya!!!

From his latest album BATTLE STUDIES, Mayer recorded his own version of I'M ON FIRE which is originally performed by Bruce Springsteen.



Several artists covered this song and put their own spin on it. But I think Mayer has a brilliant take. He may not be the best blues artist around but hey, this guy is really talented.

For more songs from the latest album, try to click this related post.

BEATLES COVERS THAT WILL BLOW UR MIND


I thought it would be fun to put together a list of some of the best BEATLES covers out there. They are the most prolific group in the history of popular music and its difficult not to want to give them a space here (not to mention the fact that they wrote a ton of spectacular songs). And its really a big challenge for me to find the flowers amidst the thorns. My choice is geared more towards mainstream artists but I also included some indie musicians to diversify the list.

SHERYL CROW- MOTHER NATURE'S SON best cover rendition from a female artist. As always, Sheryl is amazing!


EDDIE VEDDER (from Pearl Jam)- YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE UR LOVE AWAY i love this man!...Vedder is a Lennon reincarnated!

STEREOPHONICS- DONT LET ME DOWN wish ko na sana ako na lang si Chantal Kreviazuk!



FIONA APPLE- ACROSS THE UNIVERSE phenominal cover!...one of my fave Beatles song!



SARA MACLACHLAN- BLACKBIRD another great take from a very talented artist like Sara...like the way she "owned" the song!


ELLIOT SMITH- BECAUSE

BOYZ II MEN- YESTERDAY

BEN HARPER- STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER

ALISON KRAUSS- I WILL

SARA BAREILLES- OH DARLING

When you were born into this world

Your mom and dad saw a dream fulfilled
Dream come true
The answer to their prayers

You were to them a special child
Gave 'em joy every time you smiled
Each time you cried
They're at your side to care

Child, you don't know
You'll never know how far they'd go
To give you all their love can give
To see you through and God it's true
They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

How many seasons came and went
So many years have now been spent
For time ran fast
And now at last you're strong

Now what has gotten over you
You seem to hate your parents too
Do speak out your mind
Why do you find them wrong

Child you don't know
You'll never know how far they'd go
To give you all their love can give
To see you through and God it's true
They'd die for you, if they must, to see you near

And now your path has gone astray
Child you ain't sure what to do or say
You're so alone
No friends are on your side

And child you now break down in tears
Let them drive away your fears
Where must you go
Their arms stay open wide

Child you don't know
You'll never know how far they'd go
To give you all their love can give
To see you through
And God it's true
They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

Child you don't know
You'll never know how far they'd go
To give you all their love can give
To see you through and God it's true
They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

EH EH (Lady Gaga cover)


What's this song EH, EH (Nothing else I can say) all about? According to Lady Gaga, the song is about breaking up with an old flame and finding someone new. It was released as the third single from her smash hit album THE FAME, the song received mostly negative reviews from critics for being "dry and lifeless".


Personally I don't like the studio version but if you try to check her acoustic piano rendition here then you can say that the song is a gem.

Don't dig it yet? Then try streaming this awesome version by the band ESKOBAR.

TELL ME UR NAME


If you like to reminisce the songs of Jose Mari Chan then this album is definitely for you...

Asia's Romantic Balladeer Christian Bautista's new album ROMANCE REVISITED: THE LOVE SONGS OF JOSE MARI CHAN- is a 19 track rendition of songs popularized by OPM legendary music artists Jose Mari Chan. It also features collaboration with such big names like Regine Velasquez, Sara Geronimo, Lani Misalucha and Mr. Chan himself.

The carrier single TELL ME YOUR NAME gets an exceptional acoustic make-over in Christian's version. The song magnificently showcases his "vintage" melod
y which reminds me the tender vocals in his past hits like "The Way You Look at Me". Stream the music below:


With refreshing musical arrangements and outstanding vocals from Christian, this album is really a collectors item and probably the best OPM album released this year.

IN LAB THOUGHTS


You are the reason why I have sleepless nights. You are the reason why I
tend to hold my pillow tight. It's you that i'm thinking when I lay down at night. I luv u so much dont you recognized?

All I ever hear is what u whisper in her ear. All u ever say is how much you want her near. All I ever see is the things she make you do, but all I ever wanted was for u to love me too.
While u gave her flowers, you gave me thorns. While all she did was smile, all I did is mourn. While she was so happy, I felt so blue. Because while you loved her, I was loving you.

When the time comes I can't smile anymore, don't worry about me. I know what to do. I'll just stare at one corner and think of you. No one else could make me happy like the way you do.

No...he's not your usual collection of cover boy pin-ups found on those glossy fashion or celebrity mags...actually he's an actor (appeared in the film, Shortbus 2006) and a singer- songwriter who just released an all-cover song CD entitled IN LIVING COVER.
His musical style is mostly folk-pop acoustic and sometimes compared to artists Ani DiFranco, Liz Phair and Rufus Wainwright.and here's the first single from his latest album, a song from Irish band, The Cranberries' ZOMBIE.

THE BEST "THRILLER" COVER


When you think about a song that closed to halloowen, ghosts, scary things etc. etc...the first that come to our mind is probably THRILLER by the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson.

No doubt that the video of this song referred to as the greatest music video ever, it also proved to have a profou
nd effect on popular culture, film making and the music world.The list below are some of my favorite cover rendition of THRILLER. Check it out!

Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie did an amazing acoustic cover of the song:


Imogen Heap has a fantastic cover with her unique vocal skills and haunting piano:
