It was Almost Like a Song

Dateline: 13 September 2018, General Trias, Cavite

"It was Almost Like a Song" the first single and title track of the 11th album of Ronnie Milsap, multiple awardee of the Academy of Country Music, the Country Music Awards, and the country vocal performance category of the Grammys in the 1970s and 1980s. The single peaked its highest on Billboard's adult contemporary charts in the week and year that one of my best friends, Patrick, was born. We lost him in 2011, and in observance of his birth anniversary today this liwaliw Sounds post.

I especially looked at the adult contemporary charts because music like this, pop ballads and slow rock were his type. On our videoke nights, Patrick would sometimes request me to sing some such for him; strangely, he thought my voice was good enough for his type of boyish gush music.
