TATAY, YOU HAVE BEEN A VERY GOOD FATHER TO US. PASENSIYA KA NA KUNG HINDI KO NASUKLIAN ANG KABUTIHAN AT PAGMAMAHAL NA IGINAWAD MO SA AMIN. NAGSISISI AKO KUNG BAKIT HINDI KO NAIPADAMA SA IYO ANG PAGMAMAHAL AT PAG-GALANG NA DAPAT IBIGAY NG ISANG ANAK SA KANYANG ULIRANG AMA. HULI MAN TATAY, IPINAGSISIGAWAN KO AT IPINAGMAMALAKI SA BUONG MUNDO NA YOU ARE THE BEST!

OLD TIME FAVORITE MOVIES

THE_GRADUATE a 1967 film starring Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft and Katharine Ross is one of my favorite of all time. Maraming memorable na kanta ng Simon and Garfunkel ang nanggaling sa pelikulang ito.

Sypnosis:Nominated for seven Academy Awards and winner for Best Director, this groundbreaking and "wildly hilarious" (The Boston Globe) social satire launched the career of two-time Oscar-winner Dustin Hoffman and cemented the reputation of acclaimed director Mike Nichols. Pulsating with the rebellious spirit of the '60s and a haunting score sung by Simon and Garfunkel, The Graduate is truly a "landmark film" (Leonard Maltin).Shy Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) returns home from college with an uncertain future. Then the wife of his father's business partner, the sexy Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft), seduces him, and the affair only deepens his confusion. That is, until he meets the girl of his dreams (Katharine Ross). But there's one problem: she's Mrs. Robinson's daughter.

ONE_ON_ONE 1977 Starring Robby Benson and Annete O Toole is not a classic movie pero naging paborito ko ito kasi noong mga panahong napanood ko ito first year college ako at i can relate to the movie kasi freshman din ang bida. Its about a basketball scholar na nag fall in love sa kanyang tutor. Seals and Crofts ang kumanta ng mga background music para sa pelikulang ito.

Sypnosis:Henry Steele is a basketball phenomenon at his small town high school, but when he matriculates to a big city university on a scholarship, soon realizes that he has few skills outside the sport. Expected by his coach to contribute significantly to the team, Henry is overwhelmed by the demands on his time, the "big business" aspect of college sports, and the fact that he never fully learned to read. Things look bleak for Henry when Janet Hays, a pretty graduate student, is assigned as Henry's tutor. Her intellect and strength lift Henry out of his doldrums just in time to battle the coach, who attempts to rescind Henry's scholarship.

MUSIKATOY

MUSIKATOY, I am a child of the 60's , 70's was my teen years, I was a young man at 80's, three decades of great musics and if I may add the song of the 50's was my lullabies as my mom sing me to sleep. Its no wonder na the songs of this 4 decades I always look forward (siguro mas bagay hear forward to hear:) to hear. Pag pumupunta noon ako sa mga record shop I always make it a point na tingnan kong available mga past songs na matagal ko ng miss at gustong marinig. But now thanks to the wonders of the internet, I can surf on the web para mahanap mga kanta (may bonus pang video pag sinuswerte)para hindi lamang marinig kundi makita pa mga performers ng mga songs na matagal ko ng nami-miss.
Noong una inilalagay ko lang sa link ng aking Atoy Story mga songs, Musikatoy, pero dahil sa dami kong paboritong kanta naisipan kong gumawa na lang ng isa pang blog na ang title MUSIKATOY , compilations ng mga kantang hit noong dekada 60 onwards. Para naman sa dekada 50 pababa yong The-Good-Old-Days. Nakakalibang para sa akin ang i-blog at ibahagi ang mga kantang ito, para bang isang time capsule na muling bumabalik ang mga alaala ng lumipas. Mga memories ng kabataan, unang pag-ibig at iba pang bahagi nang lumipas maari mang masaya at malungkot na pag iyong pinagtagni-tagni you will realize na the what you are today is the sum of all your yesterday.


Here are some of the songs na naging bahagi na ng buhay ko noong panahon ng dekada 70's.



Kapag naririnig ko ang kantang ito naalala ko ang dekada 70. White cotton shirt, sneakers at siyempre maong o denims jean. LET YOUR LOVE FLOW ng Bellamy Brothers.

Heto namang kantang ito ay sikat na sikat rin ng panahon ng hayskul, medyo binaduy lang ito ni Fred Panopio, kundi ako nagkakamali nagka-kontrobersiya pa nga dahil sa pagkakasalin nga nito sa pilipino.
.....ang kawawang kowboy
may baril walang bala
may bulsa wala namang pera...
Rhinestone Cowboy ni Glenn Campbell

Kapanahunan nang tipar, paboritong tugtugin pag "sweet" o "slow drag". Kung may lalaking makalaglag panty, ang kantang ito ay makalaglag luha at makadurog puso.
Manhattans Kiss and Say Goodbye

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7SGCB9YaYM




Kapag narinig ko ang kantang ito I get misty eyes, kasi ang kantang ito ay tungkol sa nawalang mahal sa buhay. Although sa time na iyon i have not felt the pain of losing someone that you love damang-dama ko kanyang kalungkutan (maaring dahil sa kuwentong nabasa ko tungkol sa kantang ito, sa KOMIKS!!!)
