Couples, lovebirds, and hopeless romantics are assured of the latest, world-class love songs and a major live performance from a hit-making act come the month of February.

Make way for boyband A1 as they release a new album entitled “Waiting For Daylight,” just a couple of weeks before they perform at the Smart Araneta Coliseum with the members of Blue and the frontman of 98 Degrees, Jeff Timmons.

MCA Music announced February 6 as release date of the group’s new album which contains 15 tracks, including unreleased acoustic versions of their biggest hits: “Like A Rose,” “Caught In the Middle,” and “Everytime.” Carrie single is the title track which boasts elements constituting the relieving feeling of seeing daylight after a stormy night.

On February 25, the triple treat concert dubbed “The Greatest Hits Tour: Blue, Jeff Timmons of 98 Degrees and a1 – Live in Manila 2012″ and made possible by Wilbros Live, takes place at the Big Dome, 8 pm, on what is the 26^th anniversary of EDSA Revolution. The same night 26 years ago, love was in the air as dictatorship finally left the Philippines and democracy was restored. This time, the modern classics of the three boyband acts are expected to fill up the venue in a night of good music, well-orchestrated showmanship and glamour looks.

 A1 stated in a recent interview with a Manila reporter, “We will do our best to do every big hit! We are doing this for the fans and want to give them what they want to see! If there are any suggestions from the fans ahead of the concert then they can always give them to us on our official website (www.a1official.com) or our facebook (www.facebook.com/a1official) and twitter pages (www.twitter.coma1official). We can’t wait!”

Jeff Timmons, his band behind the hits “”I Do,” “My Everything,” “Invisible Man,” among others, likewise revealed his plan to release new recordings soon. “I am working on new music,” he said. ”I’d love to work with contemporaries like Bruno Mars and Ne-Yo, but also legends like Teddy Riley, R Kelly, Babyface, Brian McKnight, Mariah Carey, and Christina.”

Asked about his recollection of his 98 Degrees mates, he shared, “I like all the guys, but Justin is the one I’m closest to.  We share a mutual deep love for music. I got to know a lot about Justin and what he stands for, superb human being.”

The English pop vocal group Blue is set to deliver their hits like “All Rise”, “Too Close”, “If You Come Back”, “Fly By”, “One Love”, and I’m Yours”.

The day shall be marked as the 26th year anniversary of EDSA Revolution 1. Some people will surely relive the moments of that evening when it was announced ‘it was all over.’

Interestingly, local fans of top-selling boy-groups Blue, 98 Degrees and a1 have more reasons to reminisce and celebrate. Count out the political placard displays or screaming streamers. Count in sure-fire ear-friendly music, live celebrity glitter as a back-to-back-to-back concert of international heartthrobs happens inside the historic Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City come the evening of February 25, 2012.

Topnotch concert promoter Wilbros Live has just announced the staging of a star-studded concert entitled, “The Greatest Hits Tour: Blue, Jeff Timmons of 98 Degrees and a1 – Live in Manila 2012.“ The spectacle is taking place at the Big Dome, 8 pm, on the memorable day.

Witness members of these marquee boy-bands perform and serenade you in their flesh.  The English pop vocal group Blue is set to deliver their hits, such as “All Rise”, “Too Close”, “If You Come Back”, “Fly By”, “One Love”, “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word”, “Guilty”, and “Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours).” The group, comprised of Simon Webbe, Lee Ryan, Duncan James and Antony Costa, will surely paint the town red.

British-Norwegian group a1 is expected to churn out their familiar tunes. Name it, “Like A Rose”, “Take On Me”, “Ready or Not / Everytime”, “Same Old Brand New You”, “Caught in the Middle” and “Make It Good”. This pop ensemble started making a big splash when their first single, “Be the First to Believe,” entered the UK charts at #6 in early 1999. They had a huge amount of success worldwide with two #1s and eighty top 10 hits. No wonder music fans have believed! Watch out for their newest Christmas track After All It’s Christmas which will hit the airwaves very soon.

For fans of 98 Degrees, you won’t see the group performing. Yet, that shouldn’t matter much as its main vocalist Jeff Timmons is showing up. The group split up years back but its unforgettable R&B, soul, urban and contemporary pop sound lives on through its founding member. He is sure to sing many of their hits like “Invisible Man”, “Because of You”, “The Hardest Thing”, “I Do (Cherish You)” and “My Everything”.

Mark the date, February 25, 2012, and celebrate an evening worth-watching. For ticket inquiries, contact TicketNet Box Office at 911-5555 or Wilbros Live at 374-2222.
