In 2000, Philippine singer
Carol Banawa released
Carol. The album consists entirely of easy listening love songs, a style of music quite popular in the Philippines but one that poses little challenge to either the singer or the listener.
Banawa was a familiar presence on Philippine television when the album was released in 2000, and perhaps this is why the album was made. The reason surely isn't her singing ability, which is quite limited; her voice is thin and lacks depth, sounding like a ten-year-old kid on helium.
