More Than Words Music Video

Written By Rocky Batara on Wednesday, May 12, 2010 | 1:40 PM

After we dance to the tune of my first love story in college, time now to be more senti! Just like I have said, almost or majority of the Westlife's hit songs connoted my different love stories.

And this song remake of this Irish boyband originally done by the group called Extreme was one of my theme songs to my first love way back in third year high school. It's now turn for JCTM! =)

I was 15 and she was 16 that time! I was a third year high school while she was a fourth! We met when we joined together the Philippine History Quiz Bee. I can't forget that date, September 19, 1999!

When our quiz bee was over, I recruited her to join our high school student publication. Then every Sunday meeting when I was tasked to buy our foods, I asked her to come together with me (so 'kilig' haha...!). And one incident that I never forget was the time she sang this song!

It was Sunday afternoon in 11th Ave. Grace Park, Caloocan City. The songs played on the radio were all oldies but goodies. And the original version of this song from Extreme was played! Since this song was also my favorite, I was shocked hearing her singing the same song! Wow...I felt that I was being serenaded! From that moment, I really love very much this song! Specially on that year, Westlife launched their own remake of this said song!


Westlife sang it very well better than the original! Everytime I heard it playing, I remember our moments together one Sunday afternoon! I truly feel the romance within this song! Inspiration, love, admirations...all rolled into one! How I wish I will feel the same feeling again...!

So again for this very moment, allow me to share with you the same feeling I felt when hearing and watching this Westlife's version of "More Than Words"! Lyrics of the song is also flashing in this song's MTV! Let's reminisce back the times we were together JCTM! C",)

When You're Looking Like That Music Video

This Irish Boyband called Westlife was the group who really became part of my lovelife. Yup, they were the one who sang the majority of my lovelife's theme songs! From the very first time I felt the so-called 'first love' way back in my third year high school up to the college romance I had in my second year college, Westlife's hit songs became the soundtrack of my heart.

Their first hit called "Swear It Again" was my theme song to my first love having an initial of JCTM. But before we discussed that, allow me first to share with you my first romance in college which used this song as our theme.

I enter my first year college being a DOST scholar. And as a prerequisite of being such scholar, we need to took a summer class. And this summer class opened my heart into another love affair!

After our summer class, each section needs to perform a special number. Our section was divided into two. The first group will dance the crazy dance 'butsikek' while the other one will dance this hit song. And I became part of the second group.

My close friend in this class was the one who taught me the dance step of this Westlife song. And during our practice, I eventually falling in love with her. Actually upon the start of our summer class, my heart was truly captivated by her!

How I wished this summer will never end! We really became close friend! We danced together with this dance hit! We were together in the very last day of this summer class! We danced together and our section won the special number contest among the other sections!

2001 was the year we became close friend. Everytime I hear this song, I cry! I still remember her! How I wish I will dance with her again...!

So for this moment, allow me to reminisce our times together. Here is the music video of the Westlife's "When You're Looking Like That" that refreshes my heart with my love for her! My love...FJP! C",)
