Pagbabago Para sa Karaniwang Tao (Song)

Hi po! Heto po ang isang bagong awitin and I hope you could support it by sharing, liking, and requesting it on the airwaves.

With only a few days to go before the start of the 2013 election campaign period, artists and musicians should take part and speak out. Create art that would criticize the system, propel and enlighten people to elect leaders that would truly represent the interest of the many. Leaders that would fight to change the system para sa ikabubuti at ikauunlad hindi ng iilan kundi ng mas maraming karaniwan.

Tulad ng isinisigaw ng title at koro ng awitin, hangad ng Pilipino ang ‘Pagbabago para sa karaniwang tao!’

You can download your copy here. Muli, salamat po sa pagtangkilik ng makabayang musika!

Tumugon sa Hamon

Heto po ang isang bagong awitin!

Tumugon sa Hamon calls out to everyone to look at the plight of the country’s working people and listen to their stories, grief, hopes and dreams. Join them as they collectively struggle for meaningful wage and their basic labor rights, including better working conditions and the right to organize.

The song was written for the Church People and Workers’ Solidarity, a conference that aims to strengthen cooperation and solidarity between church communities and workers.

You can stream and download the song for free at Reverb Nation but if you want to support the music and this makabayang OPM artist contribute a bit via Paypal at the song’s BandCamp download.
