Marami kang nadiskubreng mga banda at music artists na may kanyakanyang mga hits, porma, at siyempre, music videos!

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
"When the routine bites hard, and ambitions are low. And the resentment rides high, but emotions wont grow."

Nabuo and grupong Joy Division (originally named Warsaw) noong 1976. Ang mga myembro ng grupo ay sina Ian Curtis (vocals and occasional guitarist), Bernard Sumner (guitar and keyboards), Peter Hook (bass guitar and backing vocals) at si Stephen Morris (drums and percussion).

Noong May 1980, sa kinagabihan ng unang US tour ng grupo, nagpakamatay ang singer at frontman ng grupo na si Ian Curtis, dahil sa matinding depression. Ang kanilang single na "Love Will Tear Us Apart" ay ang naging pinaka-mataas na charting release ng grupo. Matapos ang pagkamatay ni Ian Curtis, nag-reform and mga natirang mga myembro ng grupo at binuo nila ang New Order, kung saan sila nakatikim ng commercial success.

Ang kantang "Love Will Tear Us Apart" ay naging standard na pinapatugtog sa NU 107, at kasama sa mga playlist ng mga mobile, at sinasayaw sa mga New Wave parties noong 80's.

Sine Nostalgia: Experience 1984

Nostalgia Manila in cooperation with Sari-Saring Sineng Pinoy proudly presents, Sine Nostalgia! Featuring movie critiques and reviews of the most memorable Filipino movies of the 70's and 80's by the top authority in reviewing nostalgic films, Jojo Devera. Learn about that films that shaped Filipino Pop Culture, and the movies that left their mark in Philippine cinema history.

EXPERIENCE... Isang Karanasang Di Malilimutan

Masasabing gasgas na ang paksang tinatalakay ng Experience (Regal Films) ngunit hindi pa rin ito marahil mawawala sa talaan ng matitinong pelikula ng taong 1984. Tungkol ito kina Jing-Jing (Snooky) at Froilan (Miguel Rodriguez), mga artistang hindi lamang sa harap ng kamera magkasintahan kundi maging sa likod nito. Kadalasa'y inuulan ang dalawa ng iba't-ibang intrigang gawa-gawa ng midya upang mapag-usapan ang kanilang ipapalabas na pelikula. Nariyang isulat na may namumuong relasyon diumano sa pagitan nina Froilan at sa aktres na si Marita Ayala (Bobbi Mercado). Hindi man aminin ni Jing-Jing ay naapektuhan din ito ng mga artikulong kanyang nababasa at balitang napapanood sa telebisyon. Higit na umigting ang tensiyon sa pagitan ng dalawa nang matuklasan ni Jing-Jing na makakasama nila si Marita sa susunod nilang gagawing pelikula. Samantala, natuklasan ni Jing-Jing na may isang misteryosong tagahangang sumusunod kahit saan ito magpunta. Nagpakilala ang lalaki bilang Rodrigo Blanco (Samuel Valero). Di nagtagal, napag-alaman ni Jing-Jing na kapatid nito ang lalaking gumurlis sa kanyang mukha noong siya ay bata pa. Gayunpaman, lingid sa kaalaman ni Jing-Jing ang pakay na paghihiganti ni Rodrigo. Isinakatuparan niya ito isang gabi nang matagpuang patay ni Jing-Jing si Tita Felisa (Estrella Kuenzler) at ang kanyang alalay. Dala ng matinding takot ay umuwi ito sa pag-aakalang hindi siya masusundan, ngunit natunton din siya ni Rodrigo. Nagtangkang tumakas si Jing-Jing at nagdudumali itong sumakay ng kotse subalit naabutan siya ni Rodrigo dahil lumundag ito sa harapan ng kanyang sasakyan at nang malaglag ay paulit-ulit itong sinagasaan hanggang sa mamatay.

Inilantad ng pelikula ang masalimuot na mundo ng industriya ng pelikulang sinisira ang personal na buhay ng mga artista. Mapangahas nitong tinalakay kung paano inaabuso ang artista ng mga taong nakapaligid sa kanila. Sa ganitong konteksto itinampok ang doble-karang mukha ng oportunistang midya. Itinanghal nito ang lawak ng kapangyarihang sinasaklawan. May kakayahan itong itaguyod ang malinis na reputasyon ng isang artista o kaya'y lubusang sirain ang pagkatao ng artistang nais makapagbigay ng kasiyahan sa kanyang mga tagasubaybay. Malinis na naihanay ni Lino Brocka at ng kanyang mga manunulat ang magkakaugnay na temang may mahalgang sinasabi tungkol sa situwasyon ng mga taga-industriya. At habang nagiging kumplikado ang tunggalian, nahawakan ng pelikula ang pananabik bunga ng maingat na editing, malikhaing sinematograpiya at ensemble na pagganap hanggang sa maipamalay sa pagtatapos ng pelikula na ang artista ay biktima rin ng mundong kanyang ginagalawan.

Direksiyon: Lino Brocka

Dulang Pampelikula: Jose F. Lacaba At Roy Iglesias

Sinematograpiya: Conrado Baltazar

Musika: Willie Yusi

Editing: Rogelio Salvador

Disenyong Pamproduksiyon: Joey Luna

Prodyuser: Regal Films

Ernie sings "I Don't Want To Live On The Moon" Sesame Street Video

Nostalgia Manila is proud to present: The Sesame Street Lunchbox! Featuring video clips of all your favorite scenes from the original Sesame Street series.

Sesame Street played a big role in educating the younger generation during the '70s. Many agree that the original series was far more imaginative and educational compared to the one you see today. This is for everyone who grew up with the original Sesame Street. Enjoy!

Ernie sings "I Don't Want To Live On The Moon"
"Well I'd like to visit the moon, on a rocket ship high in the air. Yes I'd like to visit the moon, but I don't think I'd like to live there."

Isa sa mga memorable song numbers ni Ernie. Kinakanta ni Ernie na gusto niyang bumisita sa buwan, pero wala daw siyang planong tumira doon. Gusto din raw niya bumisita sa ilalim ng dagat, at dito nating una nakita si Ernie na nagsi-swimming! Gusto rin daw niyang bumisita sa gubat, at bumalik sa unang panahon ng mga dinosaurs. Memorize mo pa ba ang kantang ito? Tingnan natin!
