Richard Yap never imagined he’d end up in the acting business someday, but once upon a time, he already dreamt of being in the entertainment scene — as a lounge singer.

Rick Astley is coming to town. You know the Aussie guy with the big voice with the hit — it would take a strong, strong man — that we danced to twenty years ago. Then the duo Air Supply will be back. Also from the Land Down Under, Pinoys simply love the sound of the power ballads that these guys can dish out like no other.

                    [Summary] => 




The music industry is undergoing massive changes brought about by new technology and the ensuing market response. Despite these, 2006 is shaping up to become a most important year in the history of Filipino pop music. If this trend keeps up to 2007,  we might just find ourselves in the midst of another renaissance of great original Filipino sounds, just like how it was when the Manila Sound happened in the late ‘70s.

                    [Summary] => Harried reviewer gets a CD. Title is No Ordinary Love Lovespeak with Ryan Agoncillo, the TV host and actor, who is now the boyfriend of Judy Ann Santos. Why, it’s nice to know Ryan also sings and he’s got this two-volume CD with expensive packaging that includes a booklet filled with love notes. Great.

Be playful at times. In a circle of friends – or even in the company of a crowd – do not be square. I always remind myself that the best defense to anything – be it sickness or stillness, boredom or broken-heartedness – is laughter. And I laugh even if I’m alone.
