The Day you Went Away - Wendy Matthews

I always thought this was a very popular song back when M2M was still hot.  And I love that song too as well as Cat Power's I Found A Reason.


I have a lot of "unpopular sa Pinas" songs that I love.  To mention a few...

Heather Nova - Heart & Shoulder, What A Feeling, London Rain, Ride, Like Lovers Do, I'm No Angel, Fool For You, Island, etc.
Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold, What A Wonderful World, Ain't No Sunshine, Way Beyond The Blue
Hall & Oates - Sara Smile
Ladyhawke - My Delirium
Vienna Teng - Gravity, Eric's Song, The Atheist Christmas Carol, The Tower, Momentum, Between
Robin Beck - Tears In The Rain, If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man), Hold Back The Night
Anthony & The Johnsons - Bird Gerhl, Fistful of Love, If It Will Be Your Will
Jack Johnson - Taylor, Cookie Jar, Times Like These, Gone
Dave's True Story - Marissa
Sade - Jezebel, Pearls, Please Send Me Someone To Love

Tama na, ang dami na ng "a few" ko.

^ iba po yung sa M2M and kay Wendy Matthews...

Wendy's song starts as: Hey, does it ever make you wonder what's on my mind? ...

Yung kay Cat Power nagustuhan ko dahil sa 2nd ave na commercial ng sex and the city dati

[...ben]

^ In that case I'm not familiar with W. Matthews song.

Cat Power's I found A Reason and Anthony & the Johnson's Bird Gerhl are (also) in the movie V for Vendetta.

This Side by Nickel Creek

tagal ko ng fave yan, 4 years ago pa. I think Nickel Creek is unpopular here kasi never, as in never ko pa narinig yang song na yan sa radio. Aksidenteng nadownload lang sya sa mp3 player ko at nagustuhan ko naman talaga. Masarap sa tenga.

Only Friends by The Lettermen
Time by Alan Parsons Project

[kettlekorn28]

Ay sis, fave ko din yang TIME lalo dun sa part na "Who knows where we shall meet again".

[hersmart4ever]

^ Aba sis. Alam mo pala yan. Madaming hindi alam yung song. Minsan alam nila ang tono pero di alam ang title.

[swanprincess]

sis kettlekorn28 love ko din This Side. True, sarap nya pakinggan.
Eto pa iba ko fave:

Wake up - Coheed and Cambria
Somewhere in the Middle - Dishwalla

Time by Alan Parsons Project

Along with "Eye In The Sky" that song is very popular in the Philippines in the mid 80's.

[hersmart4ever]

^ Thanks for that info. I research ko din yang song na yan. Hindi ko yan alam kasi it may be because I am still too young then.

[kettlekorn28]

@ sis hersmart4ever, mid 80's sumikat yang TIME, 4 years old pa lang po ako nun. Hehe! Eh wala pa kaming TV nun kaya 24 hours turned-on ang radyo namin. Namemorize ko na ata halos lahat ng kanta nun.

[hersmart4ever]

It seems madami pa rin pa lang nakakaalam ng TIME. Pero like ko more yung Only Friends ng Lettermen.
