OPC Song Picks [2011.6.19]

"Weird Al" Yankovic is out with a new album, with its very fun lead single "Perform This Way" (a parody to Lady Gaga's "Born This Way") debuting at #3 (you can stream the album here). But because its video is not yet out, I'm featuring another new entry from Girls' Generation. I can't find the official upload for the regular video version, so I'm embedding its dance version instead. And while I don't understand its lyrics, I find the track catchy. (Hmm, I'm thinking parody!) Here is the Power of 9 with "Mr. Taxi" followed by the list of this week's Song Picks.

There's minimal movement on the Overall Top 10 (they're still most probably stunned by Avril Lavigne's "Smile"), but two new entries from two grand champions make it to the Pinoy Top 10 this week. Check out the list after Sesa's video for "Umalab Ka" (this group has Yeng Constantino on vocals and rhythm guitar, and Acel Bisa van Ommen on vocals), which is currently at #3 on the local tally.
