The Jukebox Queens

If we have different divas today, the 70's era have their own which they can be proud of, they are the jukebox divas. Divas that were known for their sad songs of love and longingness. The most well-known jukebox queens of that time until today were Eva Eugenio, Imelda Papin and Claire Dela Fuente.

Eva Eugenio is most noted for her song "Tukso" which talks about having a strong courage not to be defeated by the evils of this world. She is still active in the music industry and she had a concert together with Claire Dela Fuente and other OPM icons at the Araneta Coliseum recently.



Imelda Papin became popular because of her song "Isang Linggong Pag-Ibig" wherein the content of the song is a love that is within and lasted just for a week. She i9s also dubbed as the "Sentimental Songstress".



Clair Dela Fuente is known for many names or titles such as "Karen Carpenter Of The Philippines" and "Asia's Sweetest Voice". her most noted song was "Sayang" in the 70's. She is still active in the music industry and she recorded a song which is "Something In Your Eyes" written by Richard Carpenter.



They are really the Queens Of Jukebox!
