If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
An excerpt from the lyrical genius of Leonard Cohen. This verse is as captivating as it can be. Intended to be a prayer, but I find use to it.
In a sense, I kind of live by this ethos. I’m only talkative at work because it’s too boring if we all keep quiet. Though I admit it’s a bit too noisy most of the time. If anyone has interacted with me, I’m not a conversationalist. I will answer questions as if I answer fill-in-the-blanks. I hate small talks because they are too uninteresting. If you want me to rant my mouth without limits, we have to have an uber interesting topic between us.

I’ve been looking for a decent digital copy of this song. If you or anyone you know has a copy, I would be very grateful to you… Found it myself :)
Words by Jess Santiago
Si Lina ay isang magandang dalaga
Panggabi sa isang pabrika ng tela
Sumapi sa unyon, sumama sa welga
Biglang nagkagulo, nawala si Lina
Nang muling makita’y hubad at patay na
Halina, halina
Damitan ang bangkay
At sa ating puso’y
Hayaang humimlay si Lina
Isang magsasaka si Pedrong Pilapil
Walang kaulayaw kundi ang bukirin
Ngunit isang araw, may biglang dumating
Ang saka ni Pedro’y kanilang inangkin
Tumutol si Pedro at siya ay binaril
Halina, halina
At sa ating puso’y
Hayaang maghasik
Ng punla si Pedrong Pilapil
Sina Aling Maria’y doon nakatira
Sa tabi ng isang bundok ng basura
Ngunit isang araw, binuldoser sila
Sapagkat darating ang mga turista
Nawalan ng bahay ang isang pamilya
Halina, halina
At sa ating puso’y
Ipagtayo ng tahanan
Sina Aling Maria
Halina, halina

Words by Dong Abay
Nakakadena si Amor
Nakahawla ang dama de noche
Walang trabaho, bagong layang si Ador
Reklamador
Kungdi ang magbilang ng poste
Mahirap maging mahirap
Hahagulgul ang batang kulang sa sustansya
Malutong na magmumura
Ang bungangerang ina
Uumbagan sya ng asawang sugarol
Na wala namang dalang delehensya
Sa ngalan ng mga ama at ina
Kasama ang mga anak nila
Espiritu ng mga santo at santa

I’m not exactly a music critic, but I’ll mention a few things about Rico Blanco’s album Your Universe and especially the first single, Yugto. I’ll call this album good. Blanco’s poetic abilities is still evident in this solo album. Yugto has an operatic feel to it trying to follow Freddie Mercury and Queen. The intro surprisingly sounds Eastern European which I thought was cool. I can’t imagine the Vikings in the Philippines. Blanco did not try to sound different from Rivermaya and I think it’s a better move because he was after all Rivermaya. It’s good that he did not attempt to escape. I can’t wait to see him perform Yugto live because the song has a tendency to be an awesome live act.

Good riddance to him (from Pinoy Idol). But I’m sure we’d be listening to him in the future because he’s got a beautiful voice. I’m hoping he’d go solo as a rock artist. It wouldn’t be wise for him to form a band. He needs an image change and make good music because I’m pretty sure there’s a hit in him. You’re the second idol finalist who has been booted that’s deserving an entry in my site. Idol is not a place for a rocker, but it’s a very good exposure, so it’s good you’re out. Rock on!
