4 Minutes

The song “4 Minutes" is the initial single from the album Hard Candy by American singer-songwriter Madonna, collaborating with American singers Justine Timberlake and Timbaland who also co-wrote and produced the song. This eleventh studio album of Madonna was released last March 17, 2008 by Warner Bros. Records. When the song hit the Top 10 at the Billboard Hot 100, Madonna has outdone Elvis Presley as the recording artist with the most hits in the Top 10. It also became her 37th Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hit.

Occasionally, the song is referred to as “4 Minutes to Save the World", as well as by Madonna herself. The first airing of the song happened when Timbaland performed portions of the song during a concert on December 16, 2007 in Philadelphia, United States of America. The song also has a short appearance on YouTube and Perez Hilton but eventually Warner Bros. ordered the clips to be detached for copyright infringement.

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
