Heart Of The 80s

Finally got a hold of this movie clip as shared by Magsine Tayo on Youtube. It's a nostalgic moment for me to watch this again. It's a movie I watched when I skipped classes near Valentine's Day in 1988 :) Read Here :)

Here's a short review:
Three stories about love starring three of the most successful love teams in Philippine Cinema. Snooky Serna and Richard Gomez top bill Armando Lao's Forever, My Love. The tandem of Maricel Soriano and William Martinez star in Jake Tordesillas' Horror Honeymoon while reel and real life couple Pops Fernandez and Martin Nievera, are joined by Manilyn Reynes and Janno Gibbs in Jose Javier Reyes' Hahabul Habol. Stupid Cupid was directed by Maryo J. de los Reyes for Regal FIlms, Inc.

My favorite episode is the one by Snooky Serna and Richard Gomez because that was me, so melodramatic and a hopeless romantic, but of course, and also because Nadia Montenegro is cast as the rival of Snooky.  

Here again,yey! And I miss you my dear blog, so so much that seeing the blog layout on my screen makes me want to hug and kiss you! haha

Hi again, all friends! It's been a long while of me not posting 80s stuff lately as I've been busy with life itself trying to earn a living offline. Network marketing and more trainings took my sched.

Sometime in November-December last year though, I've been having all these happy thoughts, talk about throwback, nostalgia and more! Craving positivity at it's finest, so to speak. OH, if people had known where I spent my quiet moments those months. Sometimes I was at the local park, the beach, the library or even on a public jeepney ride with my own thoughts. I have so many dreams, so many wishes wanting to be fulfilled especially this year! I know and I am sure all will work out better in the end when I get to change my way of thinking. If I can think how I thought or pondered on issues during the 80's, all my dreams, all my desires will be fulfilled. Yes, maybe more so if I write about each and every achievement I get everyday in my diary. Ah... just like my old diary from June 1988 up to November 1988 (this has been missing for a long time, until I FOUND IT!) I was so positive there and begun diary entries with a prayer to God. I ended writing in that diary with the words, "I Love You, Lord!" Now I realized, each entry was something about accomplishments, blessings, love and attraction. I can't wait to share them again this year. I'll be posting them soon as scanned photos of the diary entries instead, and with the translation from Tagalog to English.

I feel that I owe it to my friends and readers- and myself too - to get to work again here. Yes, my dear blog, because I love you a million, trillion, zillion times! :))

Looking for heartbreak songs of the 80s? I got you one! Here's Love Bites by Def Leppard, who also sang "Bringin' On The Heartbreak" (1981)

Yey! It's Music Monday!

"Will You Still Love Me?" is one song I really like up to this day. I remember it being shared to me by my niece Faye in 1987, when it was not even played on the airwaves here in our province. I actually never heard of it except through my nieces and nephews singing it for me. The song was quite known in their La Union province first before ours. I can imagine it's still Faye's favorite together with awesome memories.

This song had a special meaning for me too. It's one of those songs that made me fall in love with love itself.. yeah, not with anyone then. It was a song during a loveless moment in my high school life - on my serious senior year whilst fretting about NCEEs,upcoming college entrance exams and doing good in school. Bittersweet recollections :)

"Will You Still Love Me?" is a song written by David Foster, Tom Keane and Richard Baskin for the group Chicago and recorded for their album Chicago 18 (1986). The second single released from that album, it reached #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
