BEN&BEN - NAKIKINIG KA BA SA AKIN

ARTIST: FILIPINO BAND BEN&BEN

Ben&Ben - Nakikinig Ka Ba Sa Akin [Lyrics]

[Verse 1]
Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng 'yong galit
Uunawain kita para 'di tayo maging
Epidemyang 'di matapos-tapos sugpuin
O problemang di makita, sa'n ang salarin
Tayo ba ay naging makasarili?
Sarado ba'ng tenga sa mga hiling?

[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
[Verse 2]
Kung meron kang pupurihin
Sige lang, gawin mo yan
Kung meron kang babatikusin
Sige lang, gawin mo yan
Mahalaga'y bawat isa'y mapakinggan
[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
[guitar solo]
[Bridge]
Patawad na sa pagkukulang
Naririnig kita
[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
Nakikinig ka ba? (Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng 'iyong galit)
Nakikinig ka ba?
Nakikinig ka ba? (Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng 'iyong galit)
Nakikinig ka ba?

KA BA SA AKIN" ON 1 JULY 2020
ANALYSIS:
BEN&BEN'S "NAKIKINIG KA BA SA AKIN?" IS A TUNE VEERS OFF FROM
THE REGULAR IDEAS, FOR EXAMPLE, LOVE WHICH WE AS OF NOW WILL
EXPERIENCE IN MANY TUNES THESE DAYS.THEIR NEW SINGLE RATHER
SPINS AROUND A SENSIBLE PORTRAYAL OF A FAMILY WITH EVERY PART
LEARNING EXPRESS THEIR REAL THOUGHTS AND IN THE END HOW TO
HEAR EACH OUT OTHER. CONSEQUENTLY, THE TUNE IS DEPICTED BY THE
BAND AS "ISANG ALAY SA ATING MGA KAPAMILYA. PARA SA BIGAT NG
MGA PANGYAYARI NGAYON."

WITH ALL THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE YEAR BEGAN,
INCLUDING THE RISE OF CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC AND NUMEROUS
DIFFERENT WORRIES THAT FOLLOWED, INDIVIDUALS PREVIOUSLY
STARTED TO HAVE INNUMERABLE OF DIFFERENTIATING SENTIMENTS.
SOME OF WHICH EVEN REASON MISCHIEF OR NEGATIVE IMPACT ON
OTHERS.THIS TUNE MIRRORS THE CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCE OF THE
GENERAL PUBLIC WE LIVE IN. EACH SIDE HAS THEIR OWN SAY ABOUT A
SPECIFIC ISSUE OR A SPECIFIC ISSUE, YET WHO'RE ALL EARS?YOUR
FAMILY? YOUR COMPANIONS? THE PUBLIC AUTHORITY MAYBE? IN THE
EVENT THAT NO ONE'S TUNING IN, OBVIOUSLY, THERE WILL BE NO
AGREEMENT AND THE TUNE AS OF NOW SAYS IT ALL. “NAKIKINIG KA
BA SA AKIN” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO HAS PREMIERED ON YOUTUBE
JUST A FEW DAYS AGO ON JULY 10, 2020 AND AS OF JULY 14,

 "TATSULOK" BY BAMBOO

(ORIGINALLY BY BUKLOD)

Totoy bilisan mo, bilisan mo ang takbo

Ilagan ang mga bombang nakatutok sa ulo mo
Totoy tumalon ka, dumapa kung kailangan
At baka tamaan pa ng mga balang ligaw
Totoy makinig ka, wag kang magpa-gabi
Baka mapagkamalan ka't humandusay dyan sa tabi
Totoy alam mo ba kung ano ang puno't dulo
Ng di matapos-tapos na kaguluhang ito
Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Iligtas ang hininga ng kay raming mga tao
At ang dating munting bukid, ngayo'y sementeryo
Totoy kumilos ka, baliktarin ang tatsulok
Tulad ng dukha, nailagay mo sa tuktok
Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Di matatapos itong gulo

ROM DONGETO WROTE "TATSULOK" IN 1989.

PUBLISHED ON SEPTEMBER 18,2012
 ANALYSIS:
THE TITLE OF THE SONG IS "TATSULOK" COMPOSED
AND PERFORMED BY BUKLOD BAND. IT IS ALL ABOUT
THE LEVEL OF POOR AND RICH PEOPLE OR HOW THEY
TREATED THEM. IT SEEMS TO BE SAYING ON THIS
LYRIC LINE "HANGGA'T MARAMI ANG LUGMOK SA
KAHIRAPAN, AT ANG HUSTISIYA AY PARA LANG SA
MAYAMAN." AS LONG AS YOU ARE POOR YOU DO NOT
HAVE THE ABILITY TO DEFEND YOURSELF. BUT IF
YOU ARE RICH YOU CAN DEFEND YOURSELF AND YOU
CAN AFFORD TO BUY JUSTICE BECAUSE OF YOUR
MONEY, AND ITS LOOKS LIKE RICH PEOPLE HAVE
POWER TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANT.
A LOT OF FILIPINO'S ARE RELATED TO THIS SONG.
BECAUSE IT REALLY HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE
ESPECIALLY IN THE GOVERNMENT. IT SHOWS THE
SOCIAL CLASS OF OUR SOCIETY. NOT JUST IN THE
PHILIPPINES BUT IN THE WHOLE WORD. MONEY CAN
BUY EVERYTHING EVEN THE TRUST OF THE PEOPLE.
THEY CAN ALSO HAVE POWER TO CONTROL THE
MAJOR POLITICAL AND SOCIAL INSTITUTIONS OF
THE COUNTRY. IN THIS SONG YOU WILL REALIZE THE
SAD REALIZATION THAT WE CAN'T CHANGE WHAT'S
HAPPENING IN OUR WORLD RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF
OUR DIFFERENT STATUS. SO INDIVIDUALLY IF YOU
DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE THEM, DON'T LET YOURSELF
TO THE POINT THAT YOU CAN POSITIVELY
CONTROLLED BY MONEY.
