HAPPY NEW WAVE YEAR 2010!!

HAPPY NEW WAVE YEAR 2010 EVERYONE!!

Hello guys!! Another year is about to end or I may say another decade is about to end. YUP!! The years 2000-2009 is considered a decade. I wonder what decade do we call it? Well, we have the 60s,70s,80's and 90s right? So what do we call the decade of 2000-2009? Or even the incoming decade of 2010-2019? New Year's Eve here in the Philippines really goes on a BIG BANG. YUP!! Those Firecrackers (Paputok in Pilipino) never missed the agenda on every PINOY New Year's Celebration. Though, comparing to the past decades, I've noticed that there is indeed a much decrease in the usage of firecrackers nowadays. I remember during the 80s, as early as 8pm and up until the clock strikes 12midnyt the blasting effect of these firecrackers are very much alive and It can still be heard up to 2 a.m. and that's Non-stop. Wheew!! Well this time around, when It's 1 a.m .you couldn't hear that much anymore. Remember Five Star, Pla Pla, Judas Belt, Crying Cow and more of these stuffs. So becareful Kabayans and be safe okay. Be sure your ANATOMY is still complete!! I can still remember those patients of mine which were blasted by these dangerous firecrackers especially those parts of their body needed to be amputated. KEEP SAFE OKAY!! A lot of things have happened around us this year 2009 and I'm still very greatful for all my blessings and hopefully It continues. Of course, good health is always included on my list. Kabayans, get your different types of ROUNDED FRUITS ready for MEDIA NOCHE. So GOODBYE 2009 and HELLO 2010!! THANKS EVERYONE for the continuing blog support because without you guys this blog will not last this long. I'll still try my best to make every blogpost of mine here on "The Doctor Is In" very unique, interesting, alive and kicking. YUP!! That's on my spare time if my schedules permit. This would be my very last blogpost for the year 2009. I've uploaded two songs for you to listen to and I hope you'll like it. GOD BLESS US EVERYONE for the year 2010!! PEACE ON EARTH and GOODWILL TO MANKIND!! Take Care!!

LISTEN TO "New Year's Day" by U2


I'll leave you with a SCOTTISH POEM turned TRADITIONAL FOLK SONG which is usually sang on NEW YEAR'S EVE. This is none other than "AULD LANG SYNE"!! I used to play this tune on the piano on New Year's Eve back on those days. Well, I'll be giving you the Jazzy Bossa Nova Version of the song from my Bossa Christmas CD. I hope you'll like it too. Btw. I used the Barenaked Ladies Lyrics for us to sing to the tune.ENJOY!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
LET'S SING TOGETHER "Auld Lang Syne"!!

I just wanna greet our CHINESE brothers and sisters here in MANILA and AROUND THE GLOBE "KUNG HEI FAT CHOI!! Well, Chinese New Year is also celebrated here in the Philippines because we have a lot of Chinese Nationalities here in our Country and the so-called "TSINOYS" (Chinese-Pinoys). So expect a lot of Dragon Dances in all China Towns showing a great Chinese Tradition.

HAPPY NEW YEARS DAY to you too(U2)!!

Happy NEW YEARS DAY to you all!!
Well, I guess this would be my last post in this little BLOG of mine for the YEAR2007. It was indeed another great year for me. As we all say goodbye to 2007 and hello to 2008, do take time to count your blessings. It will fill your heart with GRACE and GRATITUDE. So to all VIEWERS of my BLOG "THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SUPPORTING THIS LITTLE BLOG OF MINE!" So to those Lurkers ,well start signing in my GUEST BOOK so that I'll get to know you guys!! More to come this 2008!!
I think most of you guys have already a copy of U2's Classic Song "NEW YEARS DAY" so I don't need to upload the song anymore. The "U2 War" Vinyl Record was one of my first Imported Records I bought back in 1985. Here in MANILA, you have the option to buy either the Locally pressed Vinyl or the Imported ones. There were also a lot of New Wave Records which were played on both XB and BM that were never released locally but Pinoy Wavers like me got our own copies as Imports here in Vinyl Specialty Stores or Abroad. "NEW YEARS DAY" by U2 was included in their classic "WAR" album.


NEW YEARS DAY
-U2

All is quiet on New Year's Day.
A world in white gets underway.
I want to be with you, be with you
night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
On New Year's Day.

I... will be with you again.
I... will be with you again.

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspaper says, says
Say it's true, it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one.

I... I will begin again
I... I will begin again.

Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh.
Oh, maybe the time is right.
Oh, maybe tonight.

I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes

On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

HAVE A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR AHEAD!!
