The Soundtrack from our trip to the Philippines
I'm back home in good ol' (cold) Switzerland since Friday evening! A proper recap from my almost five weeks in the Philippines will follow shortly (when I recover from this flu...yes, I already managed to get sick, oh brother). Until then, here the songs that played over and over again on MTV Philippines and other Pinoy Music channels, and on the radio. Enjoy !! The Filipino artists are marked in yellow.
And BTW (to be pronounced as bee tee double u, as heard and seen in the Disney channel movie Camp Rock ("It so can't compete with High School Musical!", according to Sara Jane and Yves), which we watched twice at different hotels...Yves would call this "Shocking!!", haha. Yes, I have degenerated into a twenty-seven year old watching movies and listening to music for fifteen-year olds - ah but it's too much fun).

I was also in Manila two weeks back unfortunately it was to attend my dad´s wake and funeral. :( Nevertheless, traveling home is always a bonus!
Carissa my dear... as much as I respect your taste having followed your blog for so long, I cannot agree with your love of The Alchemist and The Zahir. The Alchemist I read and hated, it was what started my hatred of Coelho in the first place. It was a banal, primitive piece of rehashed pseudo-spiritual new age nonsense. A reading of The Bible or the Qur'an is far more uplifting even for someone not religious.
As for The Zahir.
You must read this Guardian review of it:
