Nakapagtataka

Walang tigil ang gulo sa aking pag-iisip
mula ng tayo’y nagpasyang maghiwalay
nagpaalam pagkat di tayo bagay
nakapagtataka

Kung bakit ganito ang aking kapalaran
di ba ilang ulit ka ng nagpaalam
bawat paalam ay puno ng iyakan

nakapagtataka, nakapagtataka

[REFRAIN]
Hindi ka ba napapagod
o di kaya nagsasawa
sa ating mga tampuhan walang hanggang katapusan
napahid na’ng mga luha
damdamin at puso’y tigang
wala ng maibubuga
wala na akong maramdaman

Walang tigil ang ulan at nasaan ka araw
napano nang pag-ibig sa isat-isa
wala na bang nananatiling pag-asa
nakapagtataka, saan na napunta?

[REFRAIN]
Hindi ka ba napapagod
o di kaya nagsasawa
sa ating mga tampuhan walang hanggang katapusan
napahid nang mga luha
damdamin at puso’y tigang
wala ng maibubuga
wala na akong maramdaman

napahid na'ng mga luha
damdamin at puso’y tigang
wala ng maibubuga
wala na akong maramdaman
kung tunay tayong nagmamahalan
ba’t di tayo magkasunduan ooh.. oohh..

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...
