In less than a month, Air Supply will be performing live in the Philippines! As they return to Sta, get ready to sing along with the iconic Australian soft rock duo.

Air Supply achieved widespread success in the 1970s and 1980s. The duo comprises singer-songwriter, guitarist Graham Russell, and lead vocalist Russell Hitchcock. They had several hits worldwide, including eight top-5 hits on the US Billboard Hot 100. 

One of the hits is their timeless classic song “Lost in Love,” released in Australia in 1978 and again soared to the top of the charts. It reached Clive Davis, founder and president of Arista Records,who immediately offered Air Supply a record deal. The song was released in 1980 and became the fastest-selling in the world, topping the charts in many countries. “All Out of Love” was the second single released and again topped the worldwide charts. 

Seven consecutive Top 5 singles at that time equaled The Beatles’ run. The albums Lost in Love, The One That You Love, Now and Forever, and The Greatest Hits sold more than 20 million copies. “Lost in Love” was named Song of the Year in 1980, and along with the other singles, it sold more than 10 million copies. 

Air Supply released their fourth live album, “The Lost in Love Experience,” in 2019 and kicked off the same-titled world tour that captivated audiences worldwide. They were the first Western group to tour China, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Some of these countries have forbidden pop music to cross their borders, but this does not restrict the population explosion of Air Supply’s supporters as this iconic duo has sold out shows all over the world, including their upcoming show in Laguna this December, just like their first time at Laguna in 2018. Ovation Productions promote both shows. Blast TV is the official media partner.

Mary Hopkin - Those Were The Days - 1968

Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours And dreamed of all the great things we would do Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes those were the days La la la la... Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes those were the days La la la la... Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friend we're older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes those were the days La la la la...

After Beatles, AI to bring Edith Piaf voice back to life for biopic

Edith Piaf (AFP) 

PARIS (AFP) - A new biopic on the life of Edith Piaf will use artificial intelligence to allow the French star to narrate her own story, Warner Music and her estate said on Tuesday.

"Edith" is "in the final phase of development", sources close to Warner Music France said, but no release date has been scheduled.

The unveiling of the "innovative and revolutionary technological project using AI to re-create her voice and image", the statement said, comes 60 years after Piaf's death.

It also follows the success of the Beatles' latest release "Now And Then" which, with a little help from AI, last week soared to the band's first UK number one single in 54 years 

Artificial intelligence helped isolate the late John Lennon's vocals from a tape he recorded in 1978, two years before he was murdered.

The two surviving Beatles, Paul McCartney, aged 81, and Ringo Starr, 83, finished "Now And Then" last year, including the late George Harrison's guitar parts recorded in 1995.

For the singer of French classics "La vie en Rose" and "Non, je ne regrette rien", AI will be fed hundreds of voice and image clips, some more than 80 years old, to re-create her unique style and "further enhance the authenticity and emotional impact of her story".

Original recordings will be used for her greatest hits, Warner said.

The 90-minute film will move between Paris and New York from 1920 to 1960 and be narrated by the singer's voice, including hitherto unknown "aspects of her life".

Only the brave souls dare to cover an Aretha Franklin song, especially with public scrutiny involved. Kaylee Shimizu is one of them—and it looks nothing short of a good decision.

After winning the previous Battles stage, the Filipino-American singer from Ewa Beach, Hawaii aced the Knockouts round of “The Voice” on Nov. 6, performing 1968 track “Ain’t No Way” by the “Queen of Soul.”

The 17-year-old offered a stellar performance of the challenging classic, which left Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire speechless and Niall Horan giggly during her turn on the stage. Meanwhile, her coach John Legend stood still and raised his arms in astonishment as she finished the song. 

Shimizu went against her fellow contestants from Team Legend Caleb Sasser and Mara Justine, who’ve also joined the four-chair turner club like her during the blind audition. In the end, Shimizu reigned the round, letting her take another step in the competition’s 24th season. Meanwhile, Sasser went home and Justine received steals from Stefani and Horan.

On Instagram, Shimizu posted a Knockouts photo dump with a caption bursting with gratitude, from her parents to her glam team. “Thank you to EVERYONE for your kind words and continuous support, I appreciate you all so much. Thank you John for helping me feel more confident in my voice and coaching me through these past performances, you’re amazing,” she said.

In another recent Instagram post, the contestant also posted a sentimental Reel, which takes a quick look at her progress as an artist. “Little me would have neverrr thought,” she wrote.

The Ossia Cadenza of Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto is one of the most physically and technically demanding part of any piece ever written in addition to it sounding terrifying and terrorizing, yet beautiful. In typical Lang Lang fashion, he plays it perfectly.
