Title: My singing in Manila
Post by: The Peepmaster on February 09, 2010, 07:57:33 PM: I'm not sure if I mentioned this, but three years ago, on my first visit to Manila, I ended up singing "My Way" at a karaoke party. I hadn't really ever sung karaoke before.

I was disturbed to read this today. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/philippines/7199022/My-Way-deaths-lead-karaoke-bars-in-Philippines-to-ban-song.html)

I'm sure it wasn't like that before I did my turn.

At least you got your song in before the ban, Peeps!

You should check into that some more, in some cultures that means "will you marry me?".

All together now:

"I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style...."
