willow_boy Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 (edited) You're right Slide, my iPod has 60s, 70s, 80s music as well, mga national anthems natin na walang kakupas-kupas... oooooh, the harder i try, the bluer i get... hey, that's not the way we planned it... i love you more today than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow... Parang ganun lang ka-simple ang buhay noh? Man, this posting brought back to me a song that I haven't heard for the longest time, "The Harder I Try" by a trio called the Free Movement. It's funny and sad at the same time na there are songs that we hear all the time in the Philippines and kind of take for granted because they're always played on the radio. Pero once we're in another country (US in my case), it takes a posting like the one above for someone like me to realize that there are certain songs I grew up with that I haven't heard played for a very long time. As trivia and in keeping with the theme of this thread, this song came out in December of 1971. Surfing through the web, I was also surprised to find out that this song is considered a "lost classic" here in the US because it was one of 2 "minor" hits from the said group.

starbuck911 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I was trying to recall where I'd stop to eat on the way to Baguio (or back to Manila) during the 70's, and I'm completely stumped. All I can remember is stopping by Dau (when turned away at Clark) to get "PX" junk food (like Scooter Pies) and wait nalang till I got to Baguio (and have American food at John Hay). The only other regular stop for me was the still-famous Shell station (before you hit Kennon or towards La Union) to fill-up and take a leak. I never had a regular resto to stopover. Even when I took the pantranco...tinulugan ko nalang wherever it stopped. Vilmar, Cindy's....didn't appeal to me. Did I miss something? Anyone? If that sounds medyo corny, how 'bout this?......Do you prefer John Hay the way it is now?...or the way it was back then when it was still U.S. property? Lots to recall on the latter, diba?

brawler201 Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 The trouble with my handle being the popular X-Men character and my avatar at the same time is that a lot of people here thought I'm a woman or maybe a lesbian. The truth about the handle is that my first company has "storm" in it and my favorite bowling ball then was my Storm El Niño. Ooops..my bad.. The white castle ladies wore red 2 piece string bikinis. This would feature the latest starlet. I remember Lorna Tolentino filling this role. Quote Link to comment

Looks like I logged on too late. A quiz like this won't stay unanswered for very long what with an avid 70s crowd like we have here in this thread. :cool: Sure enough, mukhang nasagot na lahat by this time.

Magaling Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) speaking of Bert Tawa, aside from his Isang platitong Mani , he had also an ad where he says, Pupulbusin ko and dibdib mo!I can't recall for what product that was.... That was also from a San Miguel beer commercial. If memory serves me right, the plot and dialogue went like this: Bert facing the camera says: "Kapag ito (pointing at the door) hindi nagbayad ng utang, pupulbusin ko ang dibdib (sabay suntok sa palad parang siga). Then he walks towards the door and bangs while shouting "Bruno!!!! Lumabas ka diyan!!!Kapag hindi ka nagbayad ng utang mo pupulbusin ko ang....." The thug (played by Amang Buwaya) opens the door, Bert's face is pressed on his chest as he answers in a loud and defiant voice "Ano!?!?" Sabay tingin paitaas sa kanya si Bert at sinabi "Mag-beer muna tayo!" complete with his trademark Bulakeno accent... Next scene, nagiinuman na sila with background music playing "Mag-beer muna tayo...mag beer muna tayo..." Edited July 24, 2006 by Magaling Quote Link to comment

Had you not mentioned you were an audiophile mas mapapaniwala mo kami na VIDEOKE QUEEN ka talaga!!!! Speaking of videoke, I would like to confirm once and for all that I am not the person who was shot in a San Juan videoke some weeks back.
