The first time I heard Clem Castro sing was sometime ago, in Gweilo’s along Palanca Street, when he was with a different band that had a cult following among the, er, older set. Of the group I was with, only one was in her early 20s, and while she loved the band’s songs, she could only blink when another friend noted their distinctly retro influences.

                    [Summary] => Until we get Soundscan, in this part of the world, we will always have no sure way of knowing which songs truly sold the most copies at a given time. Soundscan automatically tallies every album or single sold and is already in use in most countries. The device is what they rely on in matters of which should get the Gold or Platinum award. Given the situation and with record companies still seemingly reluctant to reveal sales figures, all that we can do is hazard a guess as to which are indeed the hits.

It’s pointless to state the obvious, but here goes anyway: Pinoy Big Brother mania is sweeping the country like the Mexican telenovelas of yore, like the pearl shakes of legend, like the mini 4wd of recent memory, like… well, you get the idea.

•Orange and Lemons, Strike Whilst the Iron is Hot


•Universal Records, 2005


I remember a not-too-distant Wednesday night at Gweilos in Makati when, upon the prodding of indie icon Toti Dalmacion, my girlfriend Joyce and I dropped by to soak in a set or two of this band that took their name from an album of XTC. By then we had already savored the first album of Orange and Lemons (O&L) – packed in non-descript recycled paper. But we wanted more.

Bakit hindi magiging tunog foreign ang music nila eh number one avid fans sila ng Beatles?   Pero infairness, mai-enjoy  mo ang music nila.

People can make as much fun of the ‘80s as they want. But no one can deny that the decade produced some of the most awesome music from Europe — a far cry from today’s drab scene dominated by media-hyped acts that MTV force-feeds on us.
