This is a special evening as the English
singer-songwriter and guitarist James Morrison performs in Manila on October 9,
2012 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Morrison achieved worldwide success in 2006 with the release
of his debut single “You Give Me Something.” His first album, Undiscovered,
debuted at the top of the UK Album Chart and sold millions of copies, making
him the biggest-selling British male solo artist in 2006. The album, which also
has the hit singles “Wonderful World,” and “The Pieces Don’t Fit Anymore” won
him a BRIT Award in 2007 for Best British Male Solo Artist.
"You Give Me Something"
You only stay with me in the morning You only hold me when I sleep I was meant to tread the water But now I've gotten in too deep
For every piece of me that wants you Another piece backs away
You give me something That makes me scared alright This could be nothing But I'm willing to give it a try Please give me something Because someday I might know my heart
You only waited up for hours Just to spend a little time alone with me And I can say I've never bought you flowers I can't work out what they mean
I never thought that I'd love someone That was someone else's dream
You give me something That makes me scared alright This could be nothing But I'm willing to give it a try Please give me something Because someday I might call you from my heart
But it might be a second too late And the words that I could never say Are gonna come out anyway
You give me something That makes me scared alright This could be nothing But I'm willing to give it a try Please give me something
You give me something That makes me scared alright This could be nothing But I'm willing to give it a try Please give me something Because someday I might know my heart
Know my heart, know my heart, know my heart
He released his second album, Songs for You, Truths for Me
in 2008, which entered the UK Album Chart at number three. The singles from the
album reached the top ten of the UK Singles Chart: “You Make It Real,” and “Broken Strings,” a duet with Nelly
Furtado.
Morrison’s is currently touring to promote The Awakening
album, released in September 2011. As the title of his third and by far best
album suggests, The Awakening is the sound of an artist coming of age. In his
personal life, Morrison has become a father, while losing his own father after
the latter’s long battle with alcoholism and depression. At the same time,
Morrison, 26, has matured as a singer, songwriter and musician, enabling him to
channel all of that emotion into his most accomplished collection of songs yet.
“My first two albums felt like practice shots,” he says, “and now I’ve
graduated. In many ways this feels like my first proper album.”
Fortunately, The Awakening has turned out to be the album
that James Morrison always had the potential to make – at last a worthy
platform for his extraordinary singing voice.
“This time I wasn’t worrying
about success at all, and that’s why it was really enjoyable. I didn’t feel I
had to go for the big, loud notes all the time – I just sat back and sang how I
felt and it all just came flooding out.”
The Awakening is a warm, live-sounding collection of classic
but contemporary folk-soul songs. There are musical similarities with
Morrison’s debut, but with added panache and self-belief. There are soaring
strings, uplifting harmonies, soulful ballads and, in Slave to the Music, a
hand-clapping dance floor groover – a new string to his bow. There are nods to
Motown, gospel, country and a hint of Latin. Technically, Morrison remains one
of the finest white soul singers, equal parts Stevie Wonder and Paul Young. But
he is more than just a Big Voice – he sings from the heart.
“To me, pop music
is just great music that lasts for years,” he says.
“Though there is the other
side of pop, which is where you have a hit, but then, after it comes out, it
never gets heard again. I never wanted to make that sort of music.”
He has retained the services of regular co-writers including
Steve Robson, the man behind Take That’s “Shine,” Eg White (Duffy), Dan Wilson
(Adele); as well as Toby Gad, best known for Beyonce’s “If I Were a Boy.” Ten
of the 12 songs are produced by Bernard Butler – the acclaimed former guitarist
in Suede. Butler, who also played guitar on The Awakening and is hailed by
Morrison as “the director of the album”, has forged an impressive studio-based
career, producing the likes of The Libertines, Tricky and Duffy .
The song “Up,” a duet with Jessie J has “hit” written all
over it. It is one of two songs produced by Mark Taylor, who helmed “Broken
Strings.” Morrison’s strained relationship with his father, who died last year
from heart failure after a protracted and painful battle with alcoholism,
inspired the lyrics for “Up” – and several other songs on the album.
The Awakening is full of raw emotion, but these are not
“downer songs”, says Morrison. “Yes, some of it’s about dealing with shit – but
it’s also about looking at yourself and what you’ve got around you, and
weighing stuff up to keep yourself thinking positively. I think a lot of people
will be able to relate to that, because that’s what life’s like, what
relationships are like.”

MMA fans can look forward to watching the pride of Asian MMA, Shinya “Tobikan Judan” Aoki, make his highly‐anticipated ONE FC debut in Manila. Shinya Aoki (30‐6‐1) is the DREAM Lightweight Champion and has beaten the likes of Tatsuya Kawajiri, Marcus Aurelio and Rich Clementi. He holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu‐Jitsu and Judo which has earned him a reputation as one of the top submission specialists in the sport of MMA. Currently fighting out of Evolve MMA, the “Grandmaster of Flying Submissions” is looking forward to showcasing his skills to the Filipino fans when he debuts at ONE FC: Pride of a Nation.
Eduard “The Landslide” Folayang (11‐2) is back in action at ONE FC: Pride of a Nation. The hero of the Philippines will represent his country once again on an international stage when he enters the ONE FC cage. Folayang is excited to prove why he is still one of the top fighters in the Lightweight division today.
Three other great fights are already lined up for this historic night of MMA action. The main event will pit the ever impressive DREAM Bantamweight Champion Bibiano Fernandes against CFC Australia Champion Gustavo Falciroli.
Fernandes has an 11‐3 record with most of his fights finishing via TKO or submission and is ranked as one of the top five fighters globally in the Bantamweight division. Despite being feared for his explosive submission grappling, his last victory in DREAM against former WEC Bantamweight Champion Antonio Banuelos, ended by TKO in just 1:21 seconds of round one, proving to everyone that he was equally adept at ending fights with his fists. He is looking to make a memorable ONE FC debut when he squares off against the aggressive striker and submission wizard from Australia, Gustavo Falciroli (12‐3). Falciroli is the current CFC Australia Bantamweight Champion. He earned his black belt in Brazilian Jiu‐Jitsu in 2003 and is currently on a two‐fight win streak. His last ONE FC fight captivated fans across the MMA community with his impressive rear naked choke submission victory over Soo Chul Kim in just 1:12 seconds of round one. Falciroli will be facing the biggest test of his fight career when he steps up in class against top pound for pound Bantamweight king Fernandes.
In addition to the main event, MMA fans will also have the opportunity to see the ONE FC debut of Andrei “The Pit Bull” Arlovski and Jens “Lil Evil” Pulver. Arlovski will square off against Soa Palelei and Pulver takes on the pride of the Philippines Eric “The Natural” Kelly. Fans can look forward to some serious action in the ONE FC heavyweight division when “The Pit Bull” arrives for the big show on 31 August. Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Arlovski (17‐9) will step into the ONE FC cage for the first time with the determination and striking ability to get him back on top of the division he once ruled. Arlovski has gone toe‐to‐toe against some of the top heavyweight fighters in the world including the likes of Tim Sylvia, Fabrico Werdum and Fedor Emelianenko. Expect Arlovski to bring hard hitting action when he looks to continue his winning streak against Soa Palelei.
Two of the most skilled strikers in the ONE FC Featherweight division will battle it out in what is guaranteed to be a fast paced slug fest. Former UFC Lightweight Champion Jens Pulver will battle the pride of the Philippines Eric Kelly. In his first appearance in the ONE FC cage, Pulver will look to impress Asian MMA fans with a decisive victory over the rising star Kelly. Coming off an impressive unanimous decision victory over Bae Young Kwon at ONE FC: Destiny of Warriors, Kelly will do everything in his power to maintain his unbeaten fight record and turn Pulver’s dream debut into a nightmare. Pulver is Kelly’s toughest test so far but Kelly will have the advantage of home crowd support at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.

The Stylistics have been recording and touring for almost forty years and enjoyed twelve straight Top 10 hits from 1971-1974. These includetheir stellar debut"Betcha by Golly, Wow", "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)", "You Are Everything", "I'm Stone in Love with You", "Break Up to Make Up", and the shimmering sweet soul ballad"You Make Me Feel Brand New".Their early 70s work with producer Thom Bell and his collaborator, lyricist Linda Creed yielded some of the most popular love songs of that era.
Known for their sleek, soulful Philadelphia sound, this quartet has been performing for nearly 40 years and became a worldwide-favorite for their showmanship, harmony and style. Formed in 1968, The Stylistics was originally comprised lead Russell Thompkins, Jr., Herbie Murrell, Airrion Love, James Smith, and James Dunn. After the original group disbanded in the 80s, Love, Murrell, and Thompkins continued to tour until 2000 and brought in two new members from one set of the Delfonics - Harold Eban Brown as lead singer, and tenor Van Fields who also sang with an a cappella group called A Perfect Blend. In 2011, Fields departed and was replaced with Jason Sharpe (formerly with Heatwave).
In 2008 they recorded their latest album,That Same Way. The new album marks as their first album of new material this century but still filled with sweet soul spirit that initially made The Stylistics famous.Their song,"People Make the World Go Round",was used by Spike Lee in the soundtrack for 1994 film Crooklyn, as performed by Marc Dorsey.
As That’s Ntertainment Productions brings one of the finest acts of the 70’s, The Stylistics-- consisting of founding members Airrion Love and Herb Murrell and newer additions Van Fields and Eban Brown—will definitely spark fond memories in an amazing night for fans of Soul and R&B genres decades ago.

Four-time Grammy Award winner Olivia Newton-John is finally coming to Manila for her one-night Greatest Hits concert on Saturday, March 31 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The music icon is behind the well-loved hits, I Honestly Love You, Hopelessly Devoted To You, Physical, Xanadu, Suddenly, You’re The One That I Want, Summer Nights, Have You Ever Been Mellow, Magic, Don’t Stop Believin, Guilty, I Can’t Help It (Duet with Andy Gibb), among many others.
Olivia’s appeal seems to be timeless. With a career spanning more than four decades she is still a vibrant, creative individual that is adored by fans across the world. Throughout her career, the much-loved star, who danced with Gene Kelly in Xanadu, hosted the popular internationally syndicated “Wild Life” television show, was bestowed an O.B.E. (Order Of The British Empire) by Queen Elizabeth in 1979, has held many humanitarian causes close to her heart, particularly since the birth of her daughter Chloe in 1986. Her charmed life has not been without its share of upset. In the 90’s, Olivia successfully overcame her own battle with breast cancer, which inspired her self-penned and produced album, “GAIA,” her most personal album reflecting upon her experiences with cancer. She used these experiences to gain greater self-awareness and became a positive inspiration to millions of people battling cancer. As a breast cancer survivor, Olivia has become increasingly well known and respected for talking openly about her battle with breast cancer and for promoting public awareness of the importance of early detection. Now, 19 years later (and cancer free) she has become a passionate advocate in creating awareness for early detection and, encouraging women to take a more active role in their breast health.
