Go check out the Inquirer's Lifestyle section this Sunday (June 30)re the cruise. They even got pictures. She came with her kids. The whole affair was reportedly a media junket for a Hongkong based cruise liner.
On another note, finally, got a copy of her latest CD (after 3 weeks of waiting, they were out of stock in SM Sn Fdo) and I must say it's a winner. I didn't expected the album to be this good. She's really a clincher for heart wrenching songs because I guess she sings with a lot of passion. What's better is they are all OPM (except for the title track). The songs remind me of hits from the Metro Pop years with their tunog Pinoy-OPM sound and some Apo Hiking Society songs. This Ogie Alcasid guy is really something else. He writes music and lyrics hauntingly (could be another Ryan Cayabyab in the making). I especially like 'Ikaw na nga kaya' and 'Bakit ka lumayo'. I also like listening to the very contemporary appeal of 'Nagkamali ba ang puso', 'Pano ba yon' and ' Tinatanong pa ba yon'. Funny, though, most of the songs are posed as questions. But I really like the OPM flavor. It's been a long time we've had new songs like these since most artists prefer to sing revivals. And this is something really refreshing. I'm no music critic but most of the songs in this album, I really like.I'm sure come awards season, Pops' is gonna be merited an nomination at the very least, or hopefully, an award.
