Ikaw ang Mahal Ko / Mapansin
we return to more contemporary times this week. :)
before jimmy bondoc became famous as a solo artist, he was a member of Ateneo High's famed Dulaang Sibol. taken from the album 'Sumibol,' the track Ikaw ang Mahal Ko is a slow but sweet song one sings to one's beloved. even as it has religous overtones, the song itself speaks simply of the basic truth that one is loved... this soulful rendition makes you want to cuddle up on a cool evening and listen to crickets chirp the night away... on a personal note, songs like these help me get in touch with that simple desire we all share: "to be told that I am loved for who I am." :)
frankly, i wasn't impressed with Paolo Santos at the start of his career. all he was doing was reviving old songs that have been revived several times over by other artists. songs like 'moonlight over paris,' 'return to pooh corner,' and others, were--quite frankly--performed far better by the original artists. but what finally caught my attention was when he started releasing his own stuff, original material that was showing his more creative side. the groovy song Mapansin marks the beginning of this worthy effort.

IKAW ANG MAHAL KO
Jimmy Bondoc
Ikaw ang mahal ko, hindi ang suot mo
Ikaw ang mahal ko, hindi ang mabibili mo
Hindi ang mga bagay-bagay na bumabalot sa 'yo
Ang tunay na ikaw sa kaloob-looban mo
Sa kailaliman ng 'yong pagkatao
Ang ikaw na tunay at totoo
Ikaw ang mahal ko
Ikaw ang mahal ko, pati pangarap mo
Ikaw ang mahal ko, pati mga pagkabigo
Pati ang mga adhikain na tagos sa 'yong dugo
Ang tunay na ikaw na sa iba'y tinatago
At kaluluwa mong hindi maglalaho
Ang ikaw na ikaw, Aparri mo't Jolo
Ikaw ang mahal ko

MAPANSIN
Paolo Santos
Hooh pa pa rap pa pa pa pam
Pa ra ram bam bam ba ram
Hooh pa pa rap pa pa pa pam
Pa ra ram bam bam ba ram
Pakiramdam ko ay sumisigla
Kapag nakikita ang iyong ganda
Di ko malaman ang siyang gagawin
Magpapa-cute lang ba o manlalambing
Na lang sa `yo
Di mo man lang napuna
Na ako ay labis na nangangamba
Itong pag-ibig na umaasa
Nananalig sa iyo nang mapansin ako
Hooh pa pa rap pa pa pa pam
Pa ra ram bam bam ba ram
Papa'no kaya ako gagalaw
Kung bawa't kilos mo'y
Tinatanaw, tinitingnan
Dapat siguro ako ay magbantay
Sa puso mo na unti-unting
Pumapatay sa `kin
Ang aking kalungkutan
Hindi mahirap magawan ng paraan
Bitin ang huwag mong masubukan
Lumalapit sa iyo nang mapuna ako
Araw at gabi iniisip ika'y katabi
At ginagawa ang lahat
Nang napansin mo lang
Ang aking hinahangad
Pakiramdam ko ay sumisigla
Kapag nakikita ang iyong ganda
Di ko malaman ang siyang gagawin
Magpapa-cute lang ba o
Manlalambing na lang sa `yo
Di mo man lang napuna
Na ako ay labis na nangangamba
Itong pag-ibig na umaasa
Lumalapit sa iyo nang mapuna ako
Nananalig sa iyo
Nang mapansin man lang ako
Hooh pa pa rap pa pa pa pam
Pa ra ram bam bam ba ram
Hooh pa pa rap pa pa pa pam
Pa ra ram bam bam ba ram

Hey, cool site! I enjoy listening to OPM too, and I'm glad that you're taking time out to post them on the net.
I was also a Sibolista in high school, and although Jimmy and I never actually worked in Sibol together, his influence was very much felt in the songs that he wrote. He wrote many songs which remain to be some of the most haunting I know. (FYI, however, the lyrics of Ikaw Ang Mahal Ko was actually written by Mr. Pagsi, our mentor and managing director, and I think, Jimmy only added lyrics).
Perhaps you could also feature some of these songs-- although they're not exactly mainstream, you are familiar with Sumibol, so you know what I'm talking about. (Incidentally, Sibol also has two other CD's of orginal Sibol songs. Perhaps also worth featuring!)
Thanks, and good luck!
where can i hear this song ? thanks
