Claire dela Fuente, the Philippine's own "Jukebox Queen" will record a song written by Richard Carpenter. The song is entitled "Something In Your Eyes". Karen was set to record this song but wasn't able to due to her passing. Richard is not only collaborating in the mixing of the song, but is scheduled to arrive for the album launching. Here is the segment from ShowBiz Central regarding this great news.
@erginakif ...because, we were briefly under the American rule during the turn of the century so, just like everybody else, we mix our native language with"American English"...

@erginakif It's called Taglish. Filipino hosts, actor, and actresses often use it.

It's really quite common among bilingual nations to switch from one tongue to another. I've observed the same thing from other nationalities having lived in the US for close to a decade. I guess the main reason is a matter of convenience. Rather than uttering a mouthful using your native tongue, a shorter English word might be more effective and avoids possible mistranslations especially if one isn't sure that a certain word even has local counterpart in the first place.

Why do you guys switch between your beautiful language and English whithin the same sentence? It's so weird.

I agree. Everyone should listen to Dusty's rendition--so heartrending. Only Dusry springfield's caliber could give honor to KC

Favorite ko na song nya is "sayang" maganda kasi yung tune and yung pagkakanta nya...and dito sa Album nya na bago aside from "Something in your eyes, maganda din yung "That's what forever is for"

She's very lucky na na-meet at nabigyan sya ng chance na makanta ang isa sa mga sinulat ni Richard...Galing! Thankful din talaga ko sayo Ms.Claire,dahil dito...nabigyan din ako ng chance na ma-meet ang kapatid ng idol kong si Karen, during her Album launching sa MOA.
Correction lang po, yung "Something in your eyes" ay isinulat po ni Ricard para kay Dusty Springfield, 4 years after Karen's death...mali yung info na "di na nakanta ni KC dahil namatay na sya.
