Question
Hi, mr. Bong. tnx for the info. But again, still got some songs crackin' my head searchin' on who recorded them and what their title are? pls help:
1. i know the the title is "only me" but who could be this clown... it goes "...who's that clown... who keeps running(?) ... when you're feeling down... who is always around... only me, not an actor..."
2. "love always commands, something for you and i to share between us, made in heaven sent by venus..." is it roberta flack's?
3. an opm "...ikaw ang langit at lupa... aking mahal..." then it shifts to English "...you the stars and moon, my everything."  

thank you very much and happy Easter!

Answer
Dear Gorby,

I spent a whole day trying to figure out your first song but to no avail. It's really very hard. As for the second song, that would be LOVE (ALWAYS COMMANDS) by ROBERTA FLACK. It was featured in the 1981 movie BUSTIN' LOOSE which starred the late RICHARD PRYOR. That last song, an OPM one was written by ace songwriter Danny Subido and was recorded by DYNA SOULS back in 1981. Its title: IKAW.

Maraming salamat po!!
