Filipinos are among the most musical people in all
of Asia. They simply love music! I said to my hosts,
everyone's a singer in this country, aren't they?! :-)
And thanks to a lot of practice on the popular videoke,
most are very good singers. Filipinos seem to love all
kinds of music, but in my observation, they seem to
have a thing for old love songs from the 50s, 80s, and
90s. Here I oblige a request for a 90s tune, Color Me Badd's
"Close To Heaven." Feel the vibe as you hear these words
sung by Sir Fred, and I:

"It's gotta be love, sweet love (love sweet love)
Whenever your near me, Ooh you make me happy, baby
Love, sweet love (love... sweet love)
Whenever your near me
Ooh you make me happy, baby"
