Question
Hello Bong, can you tell me who's the singer behind these songs, these are the titles: Smiling Monarchs, Monica's Light,In The Mood, Don't Ask Me, Castles In Spain, We Can Be Brave. Thanks. I'll be waiting for your response

Answer
Dear Jon,

Good choice of songs.

SMILING MONARCHS was performed by THE ABCEDARIANS from their 1988 album Ab-CD.

MONICA'S LIGHT by RAILWAY CHILDREN from their album RECURRENCE (1988)

IN THE MOOD, this one got me confused as there were several songs titled IN THE MOOD. But looking at the type of songs you were into made me believe you are looking for the one by ROBERT PLANT from his PRINCIPLE OF MOMENTS album released in 1983.

DON'T ASK ME was a song by A FLOCK OF SEAGULLS from their 1981 project A FLOCK OF SEAGULLS.

CASTLES IN SPAIN & WE CAN BE BRAVE AGAIN were both by ARMOURY SHOW from their 1985 album WAITING FOR THE FLOODS.

Maraming salamat po!!

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
