@ iris and warlight
it makes no sense to say “tama na yang pinaglalaban nyo”
and then follow it up with “minsan fair, minsan hindi”
it really isnt going to end until you accept that you lost cleanly.
and when it comes to bashing lyrics because of simplicity, there are songs considered to be some of the greatest written, but with the simplest of lyrics. there’s alot more to the depth of a song.
lastly, you guys disappoint me. one of the reasons our local music industry is taking so long to grow is the fact that we’re always happy it does, just not at our (or in this case, your) cost.
hope this shuts you up
Yep good luck na lang. Di rin naman sila mananalos a daming mas magagaling sa kanila. Di sa inggit pero mas masaya kung fair ang laban at di sa kapit. Alam agad na lagpas ng 6 minutes dahil nagkaron ng technical difficulty at counted na yun kahit di pa kumakanta. Kung di sobrang halata ang pagkaluto wala sanang nagrereklamo ngayon. Sana naging discreet na lang. 😉
@ iris

minsan fair, minsan nde..
