i was able to listen to the album in Music1 in alabng and i really like Kala's version of rock baby rock.. it's really funky and soul-isque! but the sound, taste and touch of manila sound is still there. i think its safe to say that this is the 21st century version of manila sound...
My fav song is No Touch by Rocksteddy because I think they made a good job incorporating modern music to the song and it's the "Best Manila Sound" in the whole album. I also like Ipagpatawad Mo by Mayonnaise.
Which song in the "Hopia, Mani, Popcorn" album do you like best and why?
i've been listening to magic89.9; they've been playing tracks from that album and of course there's music 21 and tower records for free listen....hehehe. i'll say i was surprise to hear DRTs version of Tao and Radioactive Sago Projects Kapalaran, it was dark and full of angst.....great!!! but of all the tracks my most fave is Up Dharma Downs Bitin Sa'yo. they were able to showcase the true manila sound with its catchy melodies and tongue in cheeks lyrics and fuses it with a reverb and smacked down groove only Up Dharma Downs can deliver. ang ganda ng mix, pinag-isipan talaga ang pag-atake, linis pa ng boses ng vocalist. love it!!!!

"No Touch" by Rocksteddy.. because i like the original version and when i heard the Rocksteddy version on the radio i kinda like it too.. also "No Touch" is one of my favorite OPMs..
NO TOUCH by ROCKSTEDDY is my favorite track from the CD. The band did a magnificent job by having their own style to the song yet the essence of the original was still intact. I especially love the part when the lead vocalist talked fast like what he did with Lagi mo akong dinededma, it was witty yet catchy
TL ako sayo is the 2nd revive song that i have ever heard in my entire life, the 1st revival was done by a punk rock band during the old LA 105.9 years.
its a courtship song for everyone. her kind of revival is a little bit soft and very relaxing. unlike the other revivals which are very hard and metal hahahhah.
its a song for everyone and its a nice song this coming Valenties day!
Rock Baby Rock by Kala, hands down. Actually, I know and like all the songs on the CD because my dad is a real music buff and these songs were the rage during his younger days. I singled out Rock Baby Rock because my dad and my uncle used to have a band with a couple of their friends (they call it a "combo") and this is one of the songs they used to perform. Kala's version is updated and yet still remains true to its roots... if I win the CD I plan to give it to my dad so he can be in touch with my generation through his favorite songs.

Reason: misspelled word
TL ako sa iyo by kitchie nadal... her intepretation to this song is very natural. she retained its real melody and true meaning of this song. I'm sure Ms Yoly Samson of Cinderella will be happy that kitchie did justice on her signature song.
Kitchie was able to give a new sound and feel without losing the original essence and mood of the song. From the moment she goes, "Ewan ko ba kung bakit type kita..." I knew right away that it's gonna be 3-minutes' worth of laidback music with distinctive, convincing vocals enough to make a hopeless romantic like me melt.
hey guys have you heard of this upcoming digital prepaid card for music..parang itunes mp3 card.and 10pesos lang daw ang download using the card na 100pesos lang. check nyo www.digijooze.com medyo beta pa ata site nila..pero i heard inaayus na ang line up ng mga artist..from 12 stones, terno and kung sinu sinu pang indie artist...and sources said na it will be available worldwide..well and good for all pinoy artist na ma distribute worldwide at indi hawak ng labels.basta suport na lang pinoy music!!!rak rak!!
i've always been a fan of Kitchie Nadal .. so for me, the best would be "TL Ako Sa'yo" .. just listenin' to her sing makes my heart melt .. corny as it may sound, but hey, i love her!
Kahit Maputi Na Ang Buhok Ko by Soapdish... I like this song, the way Soapdish sang it, they brought up the spirit of this song again... This is the rebirth of this song..
Win "The Best of Manila Sound: Hopia Mani Popcorn" CD!
