I just bought Barbie Almalbis' "The Singles" album yesterday for Php350 which is not bad considering the fact that it's a collection of all her hit singles including "Torpe" and my personal favorite "Firewoman" from her previous band Hungry Young Poets to her current band Barbie's Cradle.
The album contains 18 tracks plus a bonus VCD of 12 of her music videos and live performances at Gotham Bar. I kinda like the vibe of "Independence Day" it's actually my first time to hear the song as well as her version of "Pangarap" there's another version sung by MYX VJ Karel. Barbie's version is way better because of its simplicity and the subtleness in her voice. This album is a must have especially for those who haven't got the chance to own any of her previous albums. I wasn't able to score a copy of their debut album back in her Hungry Young Poets days. I only have 2 of her previous albums, the Self-titled one and "Breakfast from the Buffet Table." Good thing Firewoman and The Dance are both included in this VCD. I didn't like most of Barbie's Cradle music videos to be honest. I enjoy Barbie's unique vocal quality and her musical style and if you're a fan of hers like myself, you'll definitely love this album.
