Kyla To Conquer The Asian Market In 2009

It's going to be a 6-country music invasion by Kyla for 2009. She's poised to set China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Hongkong and Thailand aflame with her R&B flavor consisting of an album to be released by EMI that's a compilation of all her best singles and tracks from her six (6) previous albums including her current one Heart2Heart.

If I were to pick the set of upcoming tracks for that Asian market CD, this is going to be the list:

- Not Your Ordinary Girl (good bouncy album intro)

- Because of You (showed promise in Indonesia so why not make it the 2nd track here)

- Flexin' (having done this single with Blue will be a good international flavor boost)

- Beautiful Days (this showcases Kyla as an excellent performer-songwriter)

- I Will Find You (a clever diversion from the first three R&B-ballad slant)

- Love Will Lead You Back (one of Kyla's best revivals deserve to be here)

- Always On Time (this church-y R&B take has good vocal and musical arrangements for a filler)

- It's Over Now (the typical soft ballad filler)

- Human Nature (a mid-tempo revival is also a must)

- I Feel For You (this soaring ballad showcases Kyla's vocal dexterity)

- How Am I Gonna Tell You (a fast-paced track penned by Kyla is necessary for inclusion)

- If The Feeling Is Gone (not necessarily a filler, but this ballad is just a tear-jerker that Asians can relate to it)

- With You (this Radha-penned R&B ditty is infectious)

- I Will Be There (a successful single in the Phils., but this can be a filler here)

- Love To Hate (another must-have diversion in the set)

- BONUS TRACK: Goodbye's Not Forever (a must-revival for Kyla)

When Kyla Sang Hero On That's Entertainment

There Kyla was on the boob tube as a teener on the now defunct That's Entertainment show. Most mainstays there would sing in lipsynch but not her. Host German Moreno proudly introduced Kyla as a new member who would dare sing her version of Mariah Carey's "Hero" live. And she did splendidly. She stood out from her batch of mediocre performers. I already saw her perform weekly in another defunct show, Tanghalan Ng Kampeon, as a weekly junior champion, but I was surprised to have seen her break through the amateur singing contest mold that time. Years later, I would see her again but not before I would hear her singing a melancholic song on the radio...
