A friend of mine who is living in Germany now sent me this compact disc containing a compilation of bicol folk songs. Bicol folk songs are kind like the country songs. All of the songs listed in this CD were sung by a famous folk singer in our region, Ms. Carmen Camacho. The cover shows the popular Cagsawa Ruins. The top of the ruin is just the bell tower of a big church that was buried when Mayon volcano erupted years ago.
Anyhow, Fe is a very good friend of mine. Me and her work at the same school before we left our country. She worked as a cashier in the High School department while I work at the student affairs in College campus. Me and her shared the same kind of life growing up, she was also a working students just like me. She used to write at her Around Nature Spring blog but when she had her twin boys, she lie lowed a little. I miss you Mads, thanks a lot for sending me this CD. Me and the kids enjoy listening to it even though they don't understand the language, I just explained the lyrics to them.
