ANDREA OF THE CORRS LIVE IN MANILA “ THE LIFELINES TOUR”

Coming from a 4 year hiatus, Andrea Corr of The Corrs is back on stage once again with the same angelic voice and irish accent but a more personal and sensitive take on her music as she includes the Philippines in her world tour to share her new creations from her album Lifelines. Andrea of The Corrs will set foot in the Philippines for a two night
concert, first at the Araneta Coliseum on October 16 and at Waterfront Cebu on October 18. The concert is produced by Dayly Entertainment (Yellowcard, The Script, All Time Low and Westlife) and new concert producer Karpos Multimedia by arrangement with foreign companies Rockstar Touring, LAMC Productions and Solo.


Andrea is the lead vocals and tin whistler of The Corrs who previously consisted of a quartet of siblings Sharon (violin, vocals); Caroline (drums, piano, bodhrán, vocals); and Jim (guitar, piano, vocals).The group came to international fame with their performance at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, and their support of Celine Dion on her 1996 Falling into You Tour. With a line of the greatest and most memorable hits, “What Can I Do”, “Runaway”, “Breathless”, “So Young”, “Radio”, “Forgiven Not Forgotten” and many more, the group have released five studio albums, live DVD’s and numerous singles, which have reached platinum status in many countries and ended up as anthems for everyday occasions such as weddings and the likes.
While her siblings concentrated more on family building than hit making, Andrea pursued a solo career in music. It was in 2007′s debut Ten Feet High that provided Andrea with her first venture into solo stardom and a project away from a band that she had been emerged so deeply within for over ten years. Andrea was given the platform and the chance to do things on her own.
This year, May 2011, Andrea Corr released her second studio album Lifelines with the lead single “Tinsletown in the Rain”. The album also consists of song covers from the artists The Velvet Underground, Kirsty MacColl, Harry Nilsson to Ron Sexsmith, Nick Drake and The Blue Nile. The Lifelines album is locally distributed in the Philippines by
Polyeast Records while The Corrs’ previous albums are distributed by Warner Music.

I am blessed… Thanks God !


I’m alive and kicking
Have time for simple things
Going to simple places …
Reading many news, researches
Having a wide variety of interests

Enjoying again my Facebook 
FB friends, status, comments
News, and latest updates
With  new FB friends
And beautiful pictures .. and some  games ….

Been six months
That was February 19 
A near death experience
Without perception  event
Much to everyone too , a surprise

An uncertain in my head
An uncertain in my brain
Never been aware of it
Never felt before
Never been weak, never …

Only a headache
was asleep then
maybe I died  in a minute
or died for six hours
That was ruptured
That was clipped

Blessed me with gifted doctors,
With Loving family
and supporting people
Blessed me with God
God’s always holding me…
Woke me up again …

Now inside my mind
Compexity of truth
Memories and thoughts
Never complains, tears have gone
now just smiles :)
Thoughts and prayers …

But six months , a history
Now the present , and future
Looks like a mystery
But life goes on
So I just wait and see

I’m enjoying living , uplifting
always happiness, positive…
Keeping in touch, sharing
Smiling , laughing, singing
Loving life… feeling deeply alive

God is always here
Always strengthen my heart
More blessings
I Dream, I hope, have faith
Motivations, inspirations
Always Thanksgiving

I am blessed… Thanks God !
God loves me, and 
I love God! 
Everyday is the best time of my life!

Mang Inasal invited friends from Media and well-known bloggers including myself to a night of fun events, games and the launch of the brand's main marketing campaign, two more reasons to love Mang Inasal: the MANG AAWIT PROJECT, and the GRAND GADGET GIVE-AWAY; and the announcement of its 400th store opening on August 5, at the Vmall Carpark in Greenhills. Two lucky audience members also walked away with brand new ASUS Eee Pad Transformer and one of them is Vincent a blogger.

The Mang Aawit Project is Mang Inasal's way of enriching the OPM scene, The Project aims to aid eight deserving artists music grants and exposure to a wider audience as Mang Inasal shows its support for OPM. The Grand Gadget Giveaway is a promotion which raffles off ASUS Eee pad Transformer and special  I  LOVE MANG INASAL USB Ballers everyday.

Registration began at 4:30 in the afternoon, followed by an hour of fun and exciting events such as the Rock Band challenge where members of the audience held their own concerts onstage while playing to the music of rock Band 2, The Beatles, and Guitar Hero. At 6PM , the program proper began with the welcome message from Mr. Gil P. Abela, General  Manager of Mang Inasal. Following him was Mr. Enri Ruiz, Marketing Manager who gave a talk about how loving Mang Inasal was the same as Loving Philippines. And lastly, he was joined by Mr. Chris Cahilig, Program director of the Mang Inasal Mang Aawit project as they introduced the eight artists that would become the Mang Inasal Mang Aawits.



Mang Inasal expresses love for OPM, kicks off music advocacy program

The project dubbed as the “Mang Inasal Mang Aawit Music Advocacy Program” aims to preserve and enrich the local music scene by providing new and original songs that reflect Filipino sentiments, values, and spirit an avenue to be heard.

Here are the eight Breakthrough artists. The Mang Inasal Mang Aawit

“Mang Inasal loves Filipino culture and music, especially our very own OPM. We believe that helping promote our own brand of music and artists is a part of our responsibility as a corporate citizen,” explains Mang Inasal Marketing Manager Enri Luzuriaga.

“Giving our new artists their much-deserved break is an inherent value to Mang Inasal. We as a company has also a humble before becoming one of the biggest fastfood chains in Philippines today,” adds Luzuriaga.

Mang Inasal Mang Aawit will be funding the recording of two promotional songs for every artist and the production of one music video that will be played heavily in close to 400 Mang Inasal stores nationwide. A compilation album of all these original songs will also be released within the year.

“The Mang Inasal Mang Aawit music advocacy program comes at a time when OPM needs it the most. It is one big step to reviving our local music industry that was what was once the most influential in Asia,” related Mang Aawit Project Director Chris Cahilig.

“I have no doubt that many of the eight breakthrough artists will soon become the most prominent OPM artists. And it would be good to remember in the future that they all started from Mang Inasal Mang Aawit,” adds Cahilig.
