196. Passion

This weekend I had the opportunity to meet a musician that I greatly admire.  This was of course a complete unplanned event but nevertheless I am thankful for it.  Back in 2005, I was first introduced to Passion by his song "Lemonade" which became mine and Kenji's "song" **insert "awww"**.

SO after a few drinks on Friday night - we headed over to Blush for the Jo Koy after party.  A few songs in this kid and JO come up to the DJ table and grab the mic and start singing along to Musiq's "Just Friends".  To be completely honest - I recognized the voice before the name.  He was introduced as Jeremy and I thought nothing more of it until I heard him sing.  After some fast googling on my handy BlackBerry - I was giddy as ever to learn that THE Passion was right there in front of me.  Of course I didn't know what to do or say so I pushed Kenji to talk to him and the rest was a great night :)

Please take some time to check out Jeremy Manongdo's talents here on his youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/passionsf.  He updates it often with new covers and songs.  Enjoy :P

Here's an explanation and cover of his "Lemonade" song  *swoon*
