YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS YOUNG - Joe Alvarez

This is one of my all-time favorite songs. To me this is pure poetry set to beautiful music. The audio quality of this copy may not be the best but I thought it was good enough to leave in stereo.

this is a knockout wilbert! Akala tuloy ng kapit-bahay naming puti, si Tom Jones nuong bata-bata pa, however yuong handyman niyang Pinoy alam niyang local talent ito, then also may kaibigan rin akong Chinese National na nagkuwento sa akin, kapag umuuwi daw sila ng Hong Kong, mostly yuong mga Pinoy performers hinahanap nila sa mga class na hotel bars & lounge. Salamat for sharing it!

@jusric2k7 Totoo yan kabayan, Pinoy singers and bands ang mga gusto sa ibang bansa, lalu na sa Asia - sa HK, Malaysia, Japan, etc.

@limva123 I strongly agree kabayan, and in fact nuong una kami sumakay ng cruise (Carnival Valor) to visit the Carribean Islands, summer vacation 2 years ago I was so glad to find na one of their boat entertainers ay isang Pinoy family band na headed by their eldest brother, yuong mismong drummer at occasionally vocalist. 8 days kami on board na nag-start sa Port of Miami, kaya after 10 p.m. gabi-gabi na ako duon nakatambay para makinig. 60's, 70's & 80's forte nila kaya gusto ng crowd.

@jusric2k7 Onga pala kabayan, may mga Pinoy singers at bands din na entertainers sa mga cruise ships. Wala akong stats pero palagay ko along with the other OFWs isa din silang manpower exports natin dahil magagaling talaga sila, kahit sa mga foreigners appreciated sila.

@thekamelkamel I like Glen Campbell's version too. Thanks for the kind comment my friend!

@limva123 sa Carnival Cruise- Imagination, dami din kami na meet na mga Pinoy crew, around 75% food server sa buffet dining rooms, then the rest naka-aasign sa photo shop, room services,souvenir shops,sa child care centre etc. knowing na mostly sa mga ito ay highly educated at well-experienced. Singit lang lagi usap namin dahil super higpit mga supervisors. However, duon sa isang cruise,sa "Valor" pati "security",40% mga former airport-military personells using their multi-skills sa view ko
