Oh My Goodness!
There’s actually music on this site?

I know I haven’t done it in a while, but..
Yeah! That’s how this site actually started.

I post songs that I liked in my lifetime.
They’re mostly old songs because… well..
I am old.

I admit these songs I cover aren’t really that great
and they’re mediocre at best.
but that is also not my point.

I must have a way for me to express
all these emotions in one form or another.

I chose Music.

Anyway,
I heard this one when I was listening to an online radio stream.
A popular Radio channel in the Philippines.

I wanted to play this on the piano,
but my fingers wouldn’t work with me at all.
So, I did it all on Guitar.

That’s how I started with music to be honest.
I wanted to play the piano first when I was young,
but I found myself struggling with it
and ended up forcing the music to come out.
So I tried the Guitar and everything made sense.

So maybe we can say that
The Guitar is my number two.
It hasn’t given up on me.
Yet.

Lyrics start here:
(more…)

Happy Birthday, Big Brother.

Too many birthdays this month huh?
Anyway, Happy Birthday to my brother.

He won’t see these posts, but that isn’t really the point.
Just wishing him all the best.

Happy Birthday Bro!

Denden and Rommel

In the spirit of my Brother’s birthday,
I tried to look for quotable sayings about brothers.
Having one or being one.

And since I can’t decide on which one to pick,
I wrote them all down here.
Here are my top choices:

Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero.
— Marc Brown

He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother.
— Neil Diamond

A brother is a friend provided by nature.
— Legouve Pere

Brothers and sisters are as close as hands and feet.
— Vietnamese Proverb

It snowed last year too: I made a snowman
and my brother knocked it down
and I knocked my brother down
and then we had tea.
— Dylan Thomas

The highlight of my childhood was making my brother laugh so hard
that food came out his nose.
— Garrison Keillor

Brothers don’t necessarily have to say anything to each other-
they can sit in a room and be together and just be completely comfortable with each other.
— Leonardo Dicaprio

I am so in love with my brother right now.
— Angelina Jolie

Wait.
What?

Happy Birthday Kuya!
