Ikot by The Oktaves Lyrics

Madaming nagtatanong sa kin ng lyrics ng Ikot by The Oktaves, na isa sa pinaka paborito kong kanata. So here it is..

"Di na pwede"
Yan ang sabi
Bakit ba di makahanap ng iba?

Oh nasabing
"Di nabale"
Di nabale ng di makahanap ng iba

Di na makatulog sa gabi
Sana wala kang katabi

Oh nag, nag, nag iisa
Nakakasawa na...
Paikot ikot lang...
Paikot ikot lang...

Walang masabi
Anong nangyari?
Bakit ka biglang nakahanap ng iba?

Anong nasabing
"Di nabale"?
Di nabaleng di mahanap ng iba
Wala na bang matatabi?
Mawawala ng sandali...

Oh nag, nag, nag iisa
Nakakasawa na...
Paikot ikot lang...
Paikot ikot lang...

Di na makatulog sa gabi
Ayaw ko na ng katabi

Oh nag, nag, nag iisa
Nakakasawa na...
Paikot ikot lang...
Paikot ikot lang...

Here is the video directed by Ely Buendia. I might write about the video when I feel like it since it is another story.

By the way it's kind of SPG. hehe

Battle of the band vocalists

It's the battle of the band vocalists this current season for The Voice of The Philippines. Two (so far) from my favorite OPM bands, Stonefree and Mojofly auditioned for the Voice. Fortunately, unlike Aia de Leon from Imago, they passed through the audition and they are part of Team Lea (Miro) and Team Bamboo (Lougee).



I like Miro's rendition of 'Ticket to Ride", but when he sang his own song, "Anghel sa Lupa" it just shows that he is better than singing an original song than doing covers.



Same with Lougee, Oh my Lougee, my ultimate girl crush...  If I am a coach, I think I will know that it's Lougee from Mojofly. I don't like the song choice, but her voice is really distinct.

I don't know if they will  go far in this competition since there are a lot of good singers in this show. I might write another post about that one...

Anyway, I am glad they have the 2nd chance to showcase their talent. I hope that even if they might not win this contest, it will open new doors for them. I also hope they continue to write songs, which they are good at.

Well right now, I am scared for the battle rounds.. for Miro specifically. He is under Team Lea and I know from previous seasons that when she pairs her team, she pairs them fairly. She doesn't care if she pairs her 4 chair turners, or 2 really great artists. She is really aiming for a good battle. Take Season 1 Team Lea Battles.

So far, I think Miro might be paired to Nino Alejadro (cousin of my another crush Ali Alejandro, boyfriend of Lougee). They are both band vocalists. But Nino can sing covers well... so... nganyon pa lang I am sad for Miro. Sa ngayon silang dalawa palang ang  rocker sa Team Lea..

For Team Bamboo, since I also know how he pairs..and if I will be the coach, I will do the same on how he pairs his team for the battles. great artists vs. not so great artists. What went wrong last season was, even though the pairing is like that, the "not so great artist" happened to excel for the battle rounds but he still picked his "great artist. I also think that in his mind he already has final 6. I think he might paired Lougee to Rammone Rodriguez. Both pretty faces and both with low voice  registers. If my calculations are right he might pass through Battle Rounds.

So good luck to Miro and Lougee. Bring back the glory of the band scene.

Before I end this, I will leave you with  some  great, great, great songs from Stonefree and Mojofly

Last words

I've been wondering all these years
What might your last words be
Is it filled with fears
And thousands of tears?

Can right words save your life
Or is it destined to cut it with knife?
Did you call his name
And act like it was just a game?

Did he talked to you
And tell the reasons for doing what he will do?
Or he just suprised you
Like he always do?

Were you waiting for a help?
Or you know that everything will end?
Did you call HIS name
And waiting for the angels and saints to do the same?
