pinoy ako
When a Pinoy returns home from serving overseas for his country, he always remembers the sweet, gentle big nose of his love interest, the little daughter of his housekeeper, Mom. Every time he sees her, he would want to embrace her and tell her how wonderful she is. This is because a Pinoy does not have the capability to speak or behave like a normal person in our society, especially to a woman, and it is due to this very reason that his love for Mom has always been strong. There are many stories about the sacrifice that the Pinoy family has made so that their daughter can continue to study abroad. Some have said that the sacrifice they have done was greater than what the girl will ever need while living in a foreign land.
The story of a Pinoy Ako blog writer goes like this: one day, while pinning down information about the Filipino people, blogger Ako found a link to a speech given by then Foreign Secretary John Grace. It was during this speech that he finally realized the true identity of his deceased webmaster, Edward Angelo Dayao. He was so touched and thankful to the Pinoy for bringing him such valuable information. He then decided to help pinoy big brother by starting a blog about the Pinoy culture in English.
Ako began to write about the Philippines, its people and their culture, and he made sure that he included the whole story about the Pinoy ako pinoy. And one day, he was watching TV and he saw a Filipino singer, Alminar, performing in a talent show called "Alabang Bata". Then he was hooked. That very same day, he went to a music store and bought a copy of the song for himself. He decided that he would include the lyrics in his blog posts and make it as a full-time hobby.
Ako is also responsible for helping to popularize the song, "Strike Whilst You're Gold". This Christmas album topped the sales charts in just a matter of weeks due to how well it was being sung by well-known stars like Jamie Fox and Faith Hill. In fact, Fox had actually won the first round of the reality singing show All Stars - where he was eliminated in the second round. But he has since went on to become one of the best-selling singing sensations in the world. And Ako's contribution to this phenomenon can hardly be measured. The inspirational lyrics of this Christmas album have been used not only by Fox but by many other singers as well.
Another great Ako's song that he contributed to the making of the new album titled As I Lay In My Times: Koi Story is called "The Moonlane", from the album Koi LilyStar Records. The song is about the romance between a girl called Lily and a boy called Koi. It is about meeting again after a long time, just as Ako did with his former lover back in the olden times. This time, though, they have both gotten married and now live in a peaceful home together. "The Moonlane" contains the original instrumental piece as well as three additional tracks that have been specially written by Ako himself.
As mentioned earlier, Ako is a Filipino from the Philippines. His musical talent has made him the star of several television shows over the years. He has also contributed to the theme songs for several films including Kung Fu Panda and Invictus. As someone who wants to see Filipinos make it big in the music industry, one needs to check out pinoy ako the man's album titled, As I Lay In My Times: Koi Story. The lyrics and instrumental are top-notch and what makes this album worth a purchase - aside from the heart-warming sentiment inside - is that it contains an entire song based on a true story of how Ako fell in love.
