Guess who’s back?

- Jean Tatum Ancheta of Young Star Magazine -
Just when you thought that the deafening last song syndrome would cease its wrath here they are again making a grand entrance with another explosive album at hand.

Blue’s debut album All Rise send them cruising half of the globe in a small span of time, which made them the hottest and most respected boy band since the late British act Take That. Singles of All Rise swallowed up all other ambitious tracks on last year’s charts, and while it’s just settling down, these mighty hunks just released yet another missile set to cause a commotion in the international music scene with their second serving, One Love.

The Philippines was lucky enough to have them on a short visit last year, and even with the absence of Lee (who inadvertently had in an accident), they still rocked the country with countless live appearances but barely singing a note. Now, with Lee’s recovery and a promising album on their plates, hopefully Simon, Anthony, Duncan, and Lee will once again grace the streets of Manila, this time they plan to set Araneta Coliseum on fire with their slick grooves and new party beats. "Our last trip in the Philippines was amazing, everyone welcomed us with warmth and I think I saw the most beautiful girls in the world out there," says Simon who apparently had his eye for Regine Velasquez during their last visit. But don’t worry girls it’s nothing serious, maybe some of you can get 2 or more vocal lessons before the boys arrive, welcome them with your serenading voices and who knows they might just have their eyes on you too.

Blue’s new single "One Love" has already climbed the billboard countdown, followed by their famous collaboration with the legendary Elton John in "Sorry seems to be the Hardest Word." The year 2001 and 2002 proved to be a fruitful year for Blue, and 2003 is just warming up. So for those who’s aching to see them disband, well you’re gonna have to wait for quite some time because they’re not about to stop. "We’re not waiting for that to happen," declares Simon, "We respect each other, and its not about having one of us reach out and go any further, it’s about Blue with the four."
