American named Chris singing Itchyworms and other OPM songs

The most amazing thing I've seen today! Nakakabilib at nakakataba ng puso bilang isang pinoy at OPM supporter. A "Joe" singing in tagalog and you have to admit he does it so well even with the guitar playing.

I heard about the band raving about this guy, Chris last night at their guest appearance in a radio show. Talk about luck, they've been getting a lot of recognition from their last two album releases. Last year, jim paredes commended them for being musically genius with Noontime Show, and now here's a dude from the other part of the world playing their songs. The band deserves it!

COMBO ON THE RUN: Itchyworms - Self-titled

Don't expect it to be the same as their previous album. It's nothing comparable to it because they're totally different. This is not a themed album, but everything about the music is still Itchyworms. They have put their own brand of humor and sweetness to their songs, separating them from the rest.

The first single, "Penge Naman Ako N'yan" has been gaining airplay for the last month. I thought it was a song for a soda drink, pantapat sa Project1 ng Coke. Pero napaisip din ako na ironic naman kung si Jazz asa Project1 tapos katapat nila ung main band niya. Ang totoo hindi pala, nagkataon lang din na lumabas itong single na to kasabay ng "Ang Sarap Dito". Out of all the songs, I think this is the strongest contender for their first single. Catchy tune, happy-feel good music and ito yung tipong kung di mo kilala yung Itchyworms, magugustuhan mo sila dahil dito.

Notable filler tracks, "Awitin Para Sa Mga Nagmumuni-muni". Actually di ko lam kung filler to pero parang ganun na nga. Ito yung mga tipong songs na nang-aasar lang pero actually may point sya. pakingan niyo dahil nakakatuwa din at may mapupulot ka talaga. Tungkol siya sa pagddiet. Tamang tama nauuso na ung mga gym, alam nating madami dyang conscious sa figure nila. Bagay na bagay para sa mga taong nakikipag struggle sa pagpapapayat.

Yung isa naman ay "Isang Al Frescong Takip-silim Sa Cafe Francois". Pakingan niyo na lang!

Kung tutuusin maganda talaga lahat ng kanta! kaya bumili na kayo ng kopya nyo! Sulit ang P285 niyo.
