Timeline
Daniel Morales Javier (August 6, 1947 – October 31, 2022), better known simply as Danny Javier, was a Filipino singer, composer, actor, television host and businessman.
He was known as one of the members and lead vocalist of the popular musical trio APO Hiking Society along with Boboy Garrovillo and Jim Paredes, wherein he was the oldest of the group.
He is regarded as one of the pillars and icons of Original Pilipino Music (OPM).
Javier coined the term "OPM" (Original Pinoy Music, Original Philippine Music, Original Pilipino Music), originally referring to the Music of the Philippines and Philippine pop songs, particularly ballads, and any musical composition created by a Filipino that became popular in the Philippines during the late '70s.
The term continued to be used in following decades to refer to Filipino music popular in those decades.
The group was formed and had its fledgling beginnings in 1969 at the Ateneo de Manila High School.
After graduation, the majority of its members left to pursue individual careers, with only three members remaining, made up of Javier, Paredes, and Garrovillo.
In the span of their professional career, APO Hiking Society emerged as a principal adherent of the musical movement termed Original Pilipino Music (OPM), a term coined by Javier, a milieu in which their original musical contributions and cultural influence became essential.
He became involved in record production, talent management and organizing artists under the Organisasyon ng Pilipinong Mang-aawit (O.P.M., acronym translation: "Organization of Philippine Singers/musicians").
The group expanded its activities into establishing and furthering the careers of new OPM artists in the Philippines.
Although he was a latecomer to the group, remember the members had been together since high school and in some cases, even grade school, Danny instantly became the lead vocalist.
Javier’s compositions include "Show Me A Smile" (1976), "Pag-ibig" (1978), "Lumang Tugtugin" (1978), "Pumapatak ang Ulan" (1978), "Kaibigan" (1978), "Doo Bidoo" (1978), "Kabilugan ng Buwan" (1980), "Princesa" (1980), "Blue Jeans" (1981), "Salawikain" (1982), "Kumot At Unan" (1983), "Di Na Natuto" (1985), "Awit ng Barkada" (1991), "Just A Smile Away" (1992), "Isang Dangkal" (1999), and his last composition, "Lahat Tayo" (2022).
Javier began his musical career in the late ’60s.
He was already dabbling in performing solo and with other groups when he enrolled at the Ateneo de Manila University for college.
He became part of a singing group named Danny, Mandy, and Alice, with Mandy Marquez and Alice Zerrudo.

To date, the APO Hiking Society has released 27 albums and hundreds of songs over a career spanning four decades.
