First of all, I would like to greet you happy holidays and since its Christmas, I would like to feature you about the most played Christmas song. “Last Christmas” by Wham of the last five years according to PRS. Just so you know, Wham were a pop band from the 80’s composed by George Michael, Andrew Ridgeley, Pepsi DeMacque and Shirlie Holliman. Enjoy.

The All-American Rejects is one of today’s mainstream rock bands. With their catchy music pop punk rock style, people especially teenagers wont be hard to love them. I just love watching them on their music videos. Speaking of music videos, I just watched them on youtube where they played Britney Spears’s “Womanizer” in acoustic (yeah! Womanizer for real). I was like “what?” It’s very funny though. I have to admit that their version is quite better than the original version. But don’t take my word for it. Just watch it and you’d know what I mean. Enjoy.

Sorry guys I haven’t updated my blog. I was kinda busy at work. Anyways, today I would like to feature Jack Johnson. Anyone knows him right. Well for those who don’t, he is from the paradise of Hawaii. His music is simple yet great. That’s the reason why I love him. He’s not one of those very sophisticated music artists with all those gadgets and everything. He reminds me of the old days where me and my friends used to gather around and play guitar and just having fun. Anyways, enough with the chit-chat, here’s one of Jack Johnson’s hits, “better together”. Enjoy.

If you hear the name of Tracy Chapman, would you recognize the name or what’s the first thing that pops in you mind? Well if you don’t have any clue of her then I would definitely feel sorry for you. This woman is one of the most talented musicians I know. She’s one of the most gifted songwriters around and the way she puts the right melody of her songs is just astounding. When listening to her music it makes you feel captivated. It’s like meeting a stranger yet you felt you’ve known him/her for a long time or eating a cookie and once you tasted it, it becomes your favorite cookie. She is that good. Her music lets you reveal your emotional side. For me, her voice is adorable and I think is her most important asset aside of her folk guitar simply because her voice represents every men and women in the world. You can definitely relate to her songs.

Check this out. This is the smallest guitar I’ve ever seen. My friend named Tita Gia bought this one when she was in Cebu. Cebu is one of the most progressive cities in the Philippines. Tita Gia gave this small and cute guitar to me as a souvenir. This is made of wood which has 4 strings, and only two inches height.

What I s World Aids Day? This is a day of understanding about sex, protection, red ribbon, HIV and AIDS. A day where we would be remind again on the reality we are facing. We should be responsible in our actions to ourselves and to anyone especially in making love by simply wearing a condom for preventing us to get infected by HIV virus. If we want to make our world a better place, being responsible is a start. Just so you know this year 2008 is the 20th anniversary of World Aids Day. Dave Matthews - World Aids Day - Where Are You Going

The first time I heard this song, I feel relaxed and captivated because of its wonderful tone of melody. The music makes me remember of all the good old times in my life. Eventually my curiosity arises, asking myself who sang the song and what is the title. The title of the song is “Have a nice day” by Stereophonics. This song is all about a taxi driver in San Francisco where Kelly Jones(Stereophonics vocalist) ride with him once, telling Jones about what he doesn’t like about San Francisco, Tourist and his boring so-called life. For me the lyric of the song is not about what I expected. I thought it’s about love or something inspiring when I listen to it at first. Unfortunately in my own opinion it’s not about it, though for some it has different meaning. But still the music is great despite of everything.

Are you familiar with the rock band Toto? Toto is one of the most successful rock bands during the early 80’s having grabbed with lots of hit singles. Well, how about Andy Mckee? Are you familiar with his name? If not, Mckee is one of the great artists who have been known a soloist and a freaking guitarist today. Since before and even until now, when you were to get labeled as a soloist most of the attentions will probably turn to you. That would probably the rule. I have to admit when I first saw one of his videos on Youtube I began to admire him for his wonderful talent as a musician and his passion for music. His style of music is so relaxing and warm that it makes me want to watch some of his videos more. Without no further a do, playing Toto’s hit single Africa. I give you, Andy Mckee.

Do you know about Mirror’s Edge? Well it’s the much anticipated game of the year and was just released recently. The game is very unique. It’s not a casual game you’ve played before. It is a first person adventure video game with parkour free runner style. You will be playing it like your jumping every corners over sky crapper buildings. I think one of the reasons why it’s living up to its expectation it's because of the theme song of the game which is “still alive” by Lisa Miskovsky. And five remixes of the song by Benny Benassi, Junkie XL, Paul van Dyk, Teddybears and Armand Van Helden. Now that’s a lot of artists making remixes for just a song. I won’t blame them. The theme song is indeed appealing to anyone who listens to it.

Hey guys I have a trivia music for you. Don't worry this is not about math. I’m sure you can handle it. But before I’ll ask you, let me introduce you to this 3 artist that is in front of you. I know you know them. Well just in case: Guns n’ Roses – Who wouldn’t know them? With millions of record sold and tons of controversies, they were practically one of the most influential rock bands in the late 80’s. Every time I hear their hit single “Sweet Child O' Mine” and Slash possess wicked guitar, Axl Rose runs every corner in my head and remember how they rock our world. Wyclef Jean – A former-member of the hip hop group The Fugees, a hip hop legend, an actor and a producer. He came a long way for being who he is right now. He’s just all over the place. His music simply draws people together. It’s one of the reasons why I love what he does. Gorillaz – Feel good? This is a virtual band created by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s imagination. Just so you know Damon A...

To all lifehouse fans out there, this video is a must see. Ashley will stop your world as she sings 2 singles of the band lifehouse namely “somewhere in between” and “take me away”. This is definitely the best version of the songs that I have seen. Her voice and style so is unique and beautiful that you wont notice your drooling. If you don't know about the lifehouse, they’re the one who sang “everything” which was one of the coolest soundtracks of smallville and responsible of other great songs. Enjoy.
