Question
Hi its me again....thank for all the response....its really a debt of gratitude for me. Do you know the record label of David Newman and Doug Phillips and their nationality??? I hope you still remember any info about them......By the way i just recently me and a friend got a cassette tape w/c includes the song Dont Stop Trying by Rodway and it was in a very good condition. Unfortunately...i'd Give you anything was not in it. I had just transferred the tape into cd and mp3 format. To all of your suki who wants a copy of it or any other 80's song i'd be happy to give them for FREE...pls just give them my e-mail add  deep_est_purple@yahoo.com  . I really want all of those 80's songs to live and become alive these days. You know wat? If i am a rich man i'll put up a radio station and play all those old stuffs including thjose 30's to 90's music that people have already forgotten about. really sounds crazy...but thats just me.
       More power to you and all your loved ones...and may God bless you and give you more strength and true happiness. Bong ..let me just say your so wonderful. Hey i've just added and included you as one of my friends....

Dear Gerry,

Sorry for the delay. There was a strong typhoon that hit the country and most power lines were cut off for three to four days including the internet.

Wow! That's a noble thing to do. I'd like to do that also. But the least we can do is try to relive the songs at least on our own. I'll do that when some suki ask me that song.

DAVID NEWMAN's record was released here through TOWER RECORDS, I just don't know if that's also his record label internationally or just a local label. As for DOUG PHILLIPS, I don't know his record label when he released his song here. As infos about them were rare, I can't tell you what is their nationality.

Maraming salamat po!
