⌛ Music that reminds you of the philippines

I have enjoyed my trips to the islands and especially dumaguete. When I go home I am always sad to head back to the states. When I am home I find that listening to certain music really reminds me of the island. For me it is reggae. I listen to it all the time and wish i was back on the islands. Anybody else have any music they listen when not in the philippines that reminds them of the place.

 

Welcome GuapoHero.
Btw, that sounds very boosting: guapo...hero.
Or is that the name of your boyfriend ? :D)
I am mostly reminded on the Philippines when I'm for a short time back in my country of origin, when I hear karaoke music

 

Thanks for the welcome. GuapoHero is what my fiance calls me. lol
Yeh karaoke music reminds me too.

 

Why search out a reminder when you are away...when you can listen to the real thing.

They relay about 50 philippine radio stations over the internet. We listen to YesFM Bacolod, and a few others several hours a day....No Dumaguete stations yet but it's only a matter of time. Quality is usually good....sometimes stations go missing for some strange reason and then return a few days later...

 

Nice post, But for me, i remember the songs we used to sing in karaoke.
Hes not a good singer, but he likes love songs, I remember him when FM radio hit the song. hahahaha!!! silly! but its true.

I wonder what is he doing now, and where is he... hahahah
It's not good to think always a person and hes not thinking of you.. ouch this hit me!

Have a good day!

 

Reggae music
Anyway Gwapo, my answer to your question would be "Thank-you" by Jose Mari Chan. When my wife and I married, at the reception a friend sang it to us while playing his guitar, that was the first time I heard it, beautiful words.
Still brings a tear to my eyes when I hear it again :o
Silly old fool, think I will put it on now!!!

 

I always listen to eradioportal whenever I feel homesick.(whenever means almost everyday... lol) Unfortunately there is no fm dgte. I tune in cebu fm, & love radio baguio.

 

i love the positive vibes of reggae music john boy. Its actually pretty popular in the philippines. ive got several cds of filipino reggae artists including a band from dumaguete called enchi

 

OK Gwapo, I will go along with that, Filipino Reggae, but remember " I don't wanna dance, dance with cha baby no more" :D

"Be happy, don't worry"

 

hi gwaps,

why bothered about being homesick when you are almost in heaven? mr john denver said it...and you are in west virginia, right? :D
