by two friends from Bath, England; Pete Bryne on vocals and Rob Fisher on keyboard. The duo is
known
largely for its four
Top 40 singles. The first, a cover of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David
standard "(There's)
Always
Something There to Remind Me"(Bacharach himself has cited the cover as
a personal favorite).
The band had subsequent hits with their own
compositions, "Promises,
Promises" (the 12” mix of
which features vocals from Madonna), "When the Lights Go Out" and "(What) In the Name of Love”
and a lot more.
Wang Chung is

in 1980. The name Wang Chung means
"yellow
bell" in Mandarin, and is the first note in the Chinese classical music scale. The duo is
composed of Jack
Hues(vocalist/guitarist) and Nick
Feldman (bassist).The group found their greatest
success in the United States, with five Top 40 hits in the US, all
charting between 1983 and 1987,
including "Dance
Hall Days"(No. 16 In the summer of 1984), "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" (No. 2 in
1986),"Let's
Go!"(No.9 in 1987) and another hit that made waves here in our
country, “Hypnotize Me”.
The crowd will also enjoy good music from the Master, DJ Jon Tupaz, who’ll resurrect
80’s retro hits and
get everyone on the dance floor as he brings back the
good old days. Proceeds of the event will be given
to street kids from as well as to the victims of the
super typhoon thru Oplan Damayan Yolanda.
Gabay
sa Landas
Foundation aims to help and rebuild the lives of abandoned and street kids
by teaching them
the Christian core values. Oplan Damayan is JCI Senate
Manila’s disaster and relief operations program
to help flood and storm victims.
As a new generation of much younger JCI Senators
took the helm of the organization in the second decade of the millennium, the
Manila Jaycee Senate leadership poised to rejuvenate a JCI Senate chapter which
has seen better days. It changed its official name to JCI Senate Manila, in
conformance to Junior Chamber International’s global branding standards. It
actively led in the JCI Senate leg of the 60th JCI Asia-Pacific
Conference held in Manila in 2011 and hosted two major fellowships that saw
more than 200 JCI Senators and Members demonstrate a solid camaraderie under a
common bond that transcends four generations of JCI members.
Indeed, for more than three decades, JCI Senate
Manila has taken the lead beyond being a mere social club. It has transformed
into a strong organization which has been adjudged the “Most Outstanding JCI
Senate Chapter in the Philippines” and its succession of Senate Presidents, as
the “Most Outstanding JCI Senate Chapter President in the Philippines.” Under
the direction of a slew of competent leaders, JCI Senate Manila will continue
to be remembered for its contribution of distinguished vanguards as they grace
the pages of Philippine history and society.
