A GROOVY KIND OF LOVE BY Phil Collins is the number 1 song of 1988 top 100 songs. He also have a number 7 hits in 1990 entitled "Another Day in Paradise".



Don McClean's American Pie is number 3 in 1972. The song is 9 minutes and 02 seconds long.






Irishman Gilbert O'Sullivan came in fame initially partly because he dressed like a schoolboy. By the time Alone Again (Naturally) became his first UK top 3 hit, he was much more being taken seriously.

I have taught Alone Again Naturally to my guitar/chess student Brandon Kyle Soriano in original key of F. It takes him a little over 20 minutes to learn the ad lib in the middle of the song and his mom Violet recorded it live. 




Brandon participated in the 2019 Palau Blitz Chess Championship and finished 27th among 36 participants. He received a certificate as "Top Performing Newcomer" given on awarding day of 3 previous chess tournaments in Palau on Feb. 10.

My guitar/piano/ukulele/chess student Angelica Magno, a teammate in the 2018 World Chess Olympiad in Batumi, Georgia, won the certificate for "Biggest Improvement in FIDE Rating List", where her Standard Rating soared 80 points higher and 65 points gained in Blitz rating.





In the ongoing 2019 Palau Rapid Chess Championship, his father Bruce was pursued to join to make it a 26-player tourney.

Brandon Kyle Soriano, 2nd from left, played Joan Gemota, a teammate of mine in the 2018 World Chess Olympiad in Batumi, Georgia while Kyarii Sisior, left, played against Jeff Balbalosa, a teammate of mine in the 2016 World Chess Olympiad in Baku, Azerbaijan.
