Viva Concerts and Events is staging "Greatest Hits of the ‘80s" at the Music Museum on May 16 and 17. The two-night show will see Gino Padilla, Louie Heredia, Raymond Lauchengco and Randy Santiago singing some of their biggest hits, with a few surprises thrown in.

Gino is the voice that sold a thousand tubes of toothpaste back in the day. Well, not really, but his signature song "Closer You and I" was used in a toothpaste commercial once. The exposure helped his follow-up singles "I Believe in You" and "Let the Love Begin" become just as successful.

Gino has a new album "Hands of Time," which he co-produced with Sharon Cuneta.

For his part, Louie’s hits – like "Iisang Damdamin," "Nag-iisang Ikaw" and "Una at Huling Mamahalin" – served as the soundtrack for many a guy courting a girl back in the day. These days, he is actually more focused on developing his talent in the kitchen. His specialty? Paella, which you can order from him. So engrossed is he with this new business venture of his that he went into semi-retirement. However, when Viva contacted him, he agreed to come out of semi-retirement.

Raymond Lauchengco will add a little something extra with stirring renditions of all his old hits, including "I Need You Back," "Farewell," "Saan Darating ang Umaga" and "So It’s You." That he will participate in this show is fitting, since he started his career in the 1980’s via the teen movie "Bagets," which was also produced by Viva – and he has also released a new album, "Full Circle."

Meanwhile, "Babaero," one of Randy Santiago’s biggest hits, was the song for all ladies’ men. Randy – who of late has ventured into directing – will be singing "Babaero" and his other hits, so if you’ve missed "Hindi Magbabago," "Para Sa ‘Yo" and "Tuloy Pa Rin" live, then grab tickets to "Greatest Hits of the ‘80s" ASAP.

Produced by Viva Concerts and Events, it is directed by Jun-Jun Santiago, with Noel Cruz of Serenity Band on hand as the musical director. Jake Tordesillas and Kaye Brondial share writing duties.
