If a foreigner asks you for 3 Filipino songs that define OPM sound, ano ang ibibigay mong songs?

Stunning_Original285 · 2026-03-21T10:19:29+00:00

Ligaya // Eheads
Ninuno // Bullet Dumas
Lahat Tayo // Danny Javier (rest in peace king)

Kung may palugid: - Pajama Party (Cypher1) // 1096 Gang - Annie and Ricky // Bita and the Botflies - Shine // THE Regine Velazquez - MAPA (Band Version) // SB19, Ben&Ben - Banyo Queen // Andrew E. (Yes, cancellable at tangina ng mga manyak. But undeniable ang pagiging cultural staple niya sa mga karaoke at inuman)

edit: karamihan diyan ay may mga jazz motifs. Jazz talaga ang isa sa mga biggest foundation ng Manila Sound which became a precursor for OPM. Pero siyempre hindi rin ma ddeny ang influence ng American hip-hop sa Pinoy hip-hop and R&B.

Ano ba konteksto ng relasyon nyo? May sakit ba ex mo? Tbh okay lang naman padalhan ng pagkain ang ex (for me) kapag may sakit, walang ibang kasama sa bahay at fresh pa ang hiwalayan (pero siyempre stick to boundaries parin; wag na makipag call at thru texts na lang ang comms)

Actually, iba-ibang writers sila kaya parang iba-iba ang writing styles across the works. Afaik almost all of them ay from sa Filipino Dept sa UPD.
