Perfect

"Perfect" is a True Faith song from their debut album with the same name. It is a groundbreaking hit from this Filipino rock band that made them popular in the Philippine mainstream audience. This song was first heard in the airwaves in 1993 through a demo tape submitted to DWRT, a Manila based radio station. This version features clanking guitars and longing vocals in the manner of New Wave bands like the Lotus Eaters.

Perfect

You are...perfect
You are...perfect

Changing hues, the change of seasons
Will leave you no clues
As desperation spreads within a broken soul
Life leaves you feeling dead
But just like Mathis singing
On a low-down Sunday afternoon;
The blues split apart all my senses depart
As I see you come into view

Baby, as I look into your eyes
Ooh, you're perfect
Judging from the way you make me high
Ooh, it's worth it
Perfect... it's everything you are to me
Perfect... and everything I am to you

You are... perfect
You are... perfect

Crossroads and bridges
We come through a lot of trying stages
Our love sets us free from the realms
Of our own self-made cages

Baby, as I look into your eyes
Ooh, you're perfect
Judging from the way you make me high
Ooh, it's worth it
Perfect... it's everything you are to me
Perfect... and everything I am to you

Rain falling down
Ooh, it seems like it could last for years
Drowning me down
Drowning in a sea of tears
And little did I know
That someone set my soul... free!

You are... perfect
You are... perfect

Baby, as I look into your eyes
Ooh, you're perfect
Judging from the way you make me high
Ooh, it's worth it
Perfect... it's everything you are to me
Perfect... and everything I am to you

Perfect, perfect
It's perfect, 'cause you're perfect
Perfect, perfect
You're worth it, 'cause you're perfect
Perfect

Esem

"Esem" is a mid-1990s hit from Filipino rock group Yano, which is included on their eponymous album. The song is a reference to SM City North Edsa, the very first super mall established by SM Prime Holdings, in Quezon City, Philippines. This mall is one of the favorite tambayan (hangout) of some University of the Philippines students, which members of Yano (Dong Abay and Eric Gancio) belong. In this song, they recount their experiences while loitering inside the mall without any money to buy things except for transportation fare and two cigarettes. It shows the true iskolar ng bayan (scholars of the nation), who strive hard to study with their little allowances. Esem Patingin-tingin, di naman makabili Patingin-tingin, di makapanood ng sine Walang ibang pera, kundi pamasahe Nakayanan ko lang, pambili ng dalawang yosi Pamoy-amoy, di naman makakain Busog na sa tubig Gutom nailipas din Patuloy ang laboy Walang iisipin Kailangang magsaya, kailangang magpahangin Nakakainip ang gan...

Laklak

" Laklak " is an alternative rock song by Filipino band Teeth. The song is included in their double-platinum eponymous album in 1995. " Laklak " reached number 1 for 12 weeks in LA-105, a former alternative rock station in Manila, and was voted as Song of the Year at 1995 NU 107 Rock Awards. "Laklak" was re-recorded to fit the mainstream audience. The lyrics of the song are somewhat controversial because it talks about alcoholism in the youth. Although, it can also viewed as a way to avoid alcoholism because the song shows how too much drinking can make a person looked like a police who has a big tummy. In 2002, a cover version by Gloc 9 and Dong Abay is included in the soundtrack of Videoke King , a Filipino film, which stars Robin Padilla and Pops Fernandez. This version of "Laklak" is included in the self-titled album of Gloc 9. Laklak Nagsimula sa patikimtikim Pinilit kong gustuhin Bisyo'y nagsimulang lumalim Kaya ngayon ang hirap t...

Harana

"Harana" (Tagalog for "Seranade") is one of Parokya ni Edgar's biggest hit. In 1999, this song got an award from MTV Video Music Awards in the "Southeast Asia Viewer's Choice Awards" category. It seems that there is some kind of irony (or humor) in this song because their doing the harana (serenade) in formal barong (a traditional Filipino garment) with the informal maong (jeans). This song was originally written by Filipino singer Tony Lambino and ended up to this Filipino alternative rock band. In 2002, Parokya ni Edgar made a full version of this song with the following addition: Uso pa ba ang harana? Marahil ngayon ay alam mo na Basta’t para sa iyo aking hirang Kahit na magmukhang hibang Tutupdin ang lahat liyag pagkat ako ang iyong bihag. Harana (Narration) Tao po! Good evening, puwede ba hong mangharana? Uso pa ba ang harana Marahil ikaw ay nagtataka Sino ba 'tong mukhang gago Nagkandarapa sa pagkanta At nasisintunado sa kaba Meron pan...
