Kinikilig ako… Yan ang nararamdaman ko kapag naririnig ko ang kantang toh…

Minsan nga iniisip ko muka akong tanga kase wala naman akong boypren pero inspired na inspired ako sumulat ng kanta at gumising sa umaga… nakangiti.. lagi nalang nakangiti… dahil nararamdaman ko na sa ilang bilyong populasyon sa mundo ay may isang TAO na PARA SAKEN… at SAKEN LANG…

Kung sino ka man… SAKEN KA LANG! tandaan mo yan!

at naeexcite na talaga akong makilala ka… :)

ito ang kanta ko para sayo… :)

IF IT’S LOVE

by: train

While everybody else is getting out of bed
I’m usually getting in it
I’m not in it to win it
And there’s a thousand ways you can skin it
My feet have been on the floor
Flat like an idle singer
Remember winger
I digress
I confess you are the best thing in my life
But I’m afraid when I hear stories
About a husband and wife
There’s no happy endings
No Henry Lee
But you are the greatest thing about me

[Chorus]
If it’s love
And we decide that it’s forever
No one else could do it better
If it’s love
And we’re two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I’m addicted to loving you
And you’re addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That’s enough for me

***

You can move in
I won’t ask where you’ve been
’cause everybody has a past
When we’re older
We’ll do it all over again

YENG'S 15TH POST AT PEX

Finally the long wait was over! Yeng posted again at Pinoyexchange.com last night. Kaya naman yung mga lurk mode lang sa PEX eh biglang napa-unlurk. LOL. And of course that post made us all so happy! :D ( link here)



(click the picture to enlarge)

It was a typical "pag-aadik" night, where in I was left alone inside our house. I was busy accomplishing some schoolworks that our professor gave us to remind that Christmas break also defines responsibilities at the same time I'm also busy checking my facebook, twitter and at PEX. LOL. (multi tasking... hmm.. haha)

Then all of a suddenly..
I saw Yeng posted at her FB account!
And I was like.. "OMO.. she's online! this is it! Sana makadalaw siya sa PEX!!!"
so there with full of enthusiasm and with an eager approach, I posted at her wall saying...

Hello Yeng *waves* we miss you at PEX. :D


.. I've waited...

then decided to twit as well.. hehe... (look who's desperate? lol)

@yengunplugged we miss you at PEX idol! ;D http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?t=467969

THEN here comes the "good thing"
SHE FINALLY POSTED!

RYAN BANG AND YENG CONSTANTINO: NEW LOVETEAM?

and I said Kuya Kim for the win! You'll know why after watching this! :)



I just can't help but to laugh out loud when I watched this. Sobrang cute! I like Ryan and of course Yeng! Cutest couple.. well.. if ever in the future they will be.. LOL:)

Well most of us Yengsters, knows how and when it all started,(just correct me if I'm wrong, terrible memory*bop*LOL) I remember it all started just last September, when Yeng became a part of Showtime as a "hurado" for a week. (Kuya Kim somehow explained everything on the video I've posted above)

After the said Showtime appearances of Yeng, news linking the two of them started to spread around including this article : Ryan Bang denies 'special relationship' with Yeng



Whether Yeng and Ryan end up to be a couple or the "newest loveteam" (quoting Kuya Kim there! newest loveteam daw eh noh...LOL) its still gonna be two thumbs up for me because in my honestly opinion, I lily lily like Ryan Bang... He's just so adorable,funny and somehow you can feel that he is genuinely kind-hearted person, just like Yeng.

OT: PARAMORE NO MORE: JOSH&ZAC'S OFFICIAL STATEMENT

Hello Yengsters*waves* thought I share this..

Just recently we, Paramore fans were doomed by the sad news that Josh and Zac officially decided to leave the band Paramore. And yeah it was confirmed by Hayley, Taylor and Jeremy's official statement a couple of days ago. And now, finally to leave our mind at rest, why did the Farro brothers decided to leave the band, here is their official statement. (From JoshFarro 's blogspot)

Hey guys,

Let me start by apologizing to you for the way everything went down on Saturday. I had a statement typed ready to post to you guys but Hayley released one without my permission. We were not going to issue a statement until we worked out our exit agreement with Hayley. I wish it didn’t have to happen that way, Zac and I wanted to be the ones you heard it from. I want to be honest with you guys about how this band formulated from day one. I did not think Hayley’s version told the whole story, at least from our perspective and hopefully this will explain a bit about why we are leaving.

Zac and I had a garage band in high school with the intentions of just making music for the love of it. We met Taylor and our friend Jason Clark at our school and found out that we shared the same musical tastes. So, we asked them to join our band. It was some of the greatest times of our lives playing music in Taylor’s basement with them. We obviously needed a lead singer and one day Zac met Hayley. We asked her to come try out and eventually to join the band.

Months down the road things changed and this band became all about Hayley. She had a manager at the time that controlled her every move along with her parents. They didn’t like the idea of Hayley being in a rock band so they forced her to leave wanting her to pursue a solo career.

Hayley went off to write and record her solo demos while the four of us continued on without her. A couple of months later Hayley came and asked us if she could use the song “Conspiracy” that we had all previously written together. We agreed that that would be fine. I got a call a while after that from Hayley telling me that her manager said that Zac and I were invited to be back in the band (the band we started), but not Taylor and Jason because they weren’t good enough in his eyes. Hayley brought in Jeremy and our first rhythm guitarist Jason Bynum as the other two members.

We travelled to LA a few weeks later for a showcase and it was a nightmare. Hayley’s manager would tell the band to be in the lobby of the hotel at a certain time, but he and Hayley wouldn’t show for hours. We found out that they had been meeting with record label executives all morning without us, which is totally weird given that this wasn’t simply a solo artist, but we were a band. The band was in the dark the whole time. After many meetings between Hayley, her manager and the labels they decided to sign her to Atlantic records. We didn’t understand why Hayley was the only one signing the contract since we were told this was a “band”, but we were too young to grasp all of this. So far, Zac and I haven’t signed with another label, although I guess our part of Paramore sure could. Next thing we knew we were having a signing party for Hayley.

Our next move was to rerecord her solo demos with our own music rather than studio musicians to make it sound more genuine. Meanwhile, we tossed around band names. I wrote out a list of names, including “Paramore”, a name my old band with Taylor and Jason Clark had thought about using. Obviously, we settled on that name. The label received the rerecorded demos and once again tried to fire the entire band, saying we were terrible. Thankfully Hayley and I had been writing some new songs together (Hallelujah, Here We Go Again) that the label was pleased with so that acted as leverage for the band to stay. The label and management then decided to build our band up the grass-roots route. They put Hayley on Fueled by Ramen not making it known she was signed to Atlantic as well. All the while we still questioned whether or not we were an actual band, but Hayley continued to insist we were, despite our being ignored and pushed around by the label.

They then sent us all to Orlando to rehearse and write eight hours a day for our first record. Half -way though this process, Jeremy decided to quit. We were all really upset about it. So we finished the record, replaced Jeremy, and hit the road with Hayley’s father as our tour manager/driver of a twelve-passenger van. Her dad would constantly threaten to “pull the plug” on the whole band if we complained about anything, suggesting that we were hired guns and Hayley was the real artist, when in reality we were also part of the band. We’ve always been treated as less important than Hayley. It’s been obvious how her family views things.

Jeremy ended up rejoining and we toured non-stop for two and half years building our fan base, pretending to be a band that started naturally. In reality, what started as natural somehow morphed into a manufactured product of a major label, riding on the coattails of “Hayley’s dream.”

Before recording our next record, we kicked out Jeremy for his lack of work ethic and participation in things that Zac, Hayley and I didn’t agree with. At this point it was just the three of us to record Riot. Once the record was done, we needed a bassist and another guitarist. Eventually Zac and I convinced Hayley to let Taylor rejoin and she convinced us to let Jeremy back in, promising he had changed his ways.

Once again we hit the road and toured on our biggest record as a band. As you all know Hayley and I dated and broke up during this album cycle. Things then started going downhill for our band. Hayley and Jeremy’s views started changing from what we all once believed in. The band almost split after cancelling a tour in Europe, but we managed to keep it together somehow. This is when Zac and I started to consider quitting the band.

Once we finished touring on Riot, we came home for a break and started writing for Brand New Eyes. Hayley presented lyrics to us that were really negative and we didn’t agree with. For example, “the truth never set me free”, which contradicts what the Bible says in John 8:32 (“and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall sat you free”). We fought her about how her lyrics misrepresented our band and what we stood for, but in the end she got her way. Instead of fighting her any longer, we decided to just roll over and let it go.

Hayley claimed that this record reunited us as band and made us grow closer together, when in reality we were all growing further apart. Suddenly the band had spilt into two sides. Touring became more difficult since we couldn’t agree on anything. The friendships our band once had were no longer existent. Amos 3:3 says, “Can two people walk together without agreeing on the direction”. In addition to the band turmoil, touring had really taken its toll on us both. We left home at such a young age and missed taking part in normal teenage years. When you own part of a band and are constantly playing, you make sacrifices. Touring has taken its toll on our family members as well. I specifically remember many moments where our parents would break down in tears when we had to leave. It broke my heart. Seeing our siblings grow up so much during our absences was never easy either.

After a lot a prayer and counsel Zac and I came to the decision that it was time to leave the band. We truly feel that God is leading us elsewhere and is going to do great things with us. The intention of this statement was not to belittle or disgrace the rest of the band, it was simply to clarify our decision for leaving and our desire to finally tell you guys the truth. We are still hoping to work out a friendly way to leave our part of Paramore intact with the remaining band members, including Hayley.

We want to thank you guys for all of your love and support over the past 7 years. It’s been an honor creating and playing music for you. If music is what God calls us to in the future, we hope that you all will be a part of it.

All of the glory be to God,

Josh and Zac

I just don't know which side am I gonna take now. But one thing for sure that I agree the most, "THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE" :)

Yeng Constantino's Kikay Rock And Roll Style On The Pages Of Cosmo

A month after The Rockstar talked about her personal style, we got her for "The Style Of Music" fashion spread in the December ish! See behind-the-scenes pics. Posted on December 23, 2010 09:00 am by Camille S. Santiago, Cosmo.ph College Correspondent

Kikay Rock And Roll Style On The Pages Of Cosmo

In our last interview with Yeng Constantino, she told us that she considers rocker chicks Taylor Momsen and Haley Williams her fashion icons. We got the Rockoustic Princess of the Philippines talking about fashion last month--and now, we’re giving you more of an inside scoop on Yeng’s newly evolved style. We immediately put that to the test when we got her to be one of the models for the celebrity fashion editorial in the December 2010 issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine.

After shooting her fierce layouts for her first fashion shoot for a fashion magazine, as she revealed, and ransacking her H&M bag, Cosmo sat down with Yeng for a longer Style & Beauty talk. Although it was only recently that she became fond of fashion, Yeng admitted that at first, she felt hurt when people said negative things about her dress-and-sneakers style. But because of her work, this 22-year old singer (and soon to be bassist in an all-girl band) learned to be more open to styles that people appreciate--and now she’s enjoying it!

Get to know more about Yeng's fashion evolution in this candid interview, and see her advice to girls who experienced the same style dilemma as she did.

Describe your personal style. Has your music influenced your style?

My style is edgy, rock and roll lang. And I think nakakaapekto 'yung music ko sa way ko ng pananamit, dahil parang hindi yata bagay na when you’re playing rock and roll music, magsusuot ka ng pa-girl. Hindi maraming nakakaalam, sobrang kikay ako. My favorite color is pink. Pero since alam ko na may ganung mindset 'yung mga tao na, kapag ito 'yung music mo, like alternative or pop (ako kasi nasa pop naman ako, pero alternative 'yung music ko), siyempre 'yung mga tao, ine-expect na ganito 'yung itsura mo. So ibigay mo sa kanila 'yun, kasi tama nga naman, para 'yung music ko and 'yung pananamit ko, one lang. Pero 'yung totoo hindi talaga ako magaling mag-style, that’s why nag-hire ako ng magsa-style for me, stylist ko si Em Milan, siya 'yung nag-aayos sa'kin for ASAP and all. So through her, natututo ako na magdamit, and naghahanap-hanap kami ng pegs sa internet, ano 'yung magandang peg, like Taylor Momsen, Haley Willams of Paramore. So 'yun, nakakatulong talaga siya.

Have you ever experienced any wardrobe malfunctions?

Yeah, meron na. Sobrang luwag ng damit. So let's say habang kumakanta, e malikot ako, nalalaglag siya. Hindi ko alam ano'ng gagawin ko, hindi na 'ko nagtataas ng kamay kasi iniipit ko na lang sa kili-kili ko. Ganun talaga, you have to deliver kahit na may malfunctions. Importante doon, hindi nila mahalata (laughs).

Have you always had a love for fashion?

Ngayon lang ako nahilig sa fashion. Kasi parang may sarili akong fashion e. E 'yung fashion ko hindi naman maintindihan ng mga totoong fashionista. Ito 'yung style ko, kahit naka-gown ako, naka-rubber shoes ako, o kahit anong suot ko gusto ko lagi akong naka-sneakers. Hindi nila naiintindihan 'yun. Siyempre at first masakit. Pero you have to grow up and accept na kailangan mong mag-adjust, lalo na sa trabaho namin, we’re TV personalities, and 'yun, meron nang kultura ang show business. Sometimes you have to compromise for them, pero not in a bad way. Pero parang subukan mo 'yung ginagawa nila. And then eventually, makikita mo na 'yung gusto mo at 'yung gusto nila, napaghahalo mo na. So hindi ka talo, kasi nagagawa mo pa rin 'yung gusto mo, at the same time, napi-please mo rin 'yung mga tagahanga mo, 'yung mga boss mo. Sobrang malaki 'to for me, honestly. It’s my first time to be featured sa isang fashion mag, sa Cosmo, ever. First time.

How do you feel about that?

'Yung ganung pakiramdam, na naa-acknowledge na nila 'yung ginagawa mo, parang nag-pay-off lahat ng sakripisyo ko na "Sige Yeng, grow up Yeng, kahit masakit. You know, kailangan mong iwanan 'yung rubber shoes mo sa kwarto and magsuot muna ng heels.” Well, happy now, nagsusuot na 'ko ng heels, and nakakaganda pala talaga siya ng posture, nakaka-straight ng body, mas nagmumukha kang sophisticated. Hindi pa rin naman natatanggal 'yung totoong ako, pero parang na-improve lang. Happy talaga ako, first time ko sa Cosmo. Yay!

What’s your no-fail after-party outfit?

A black dress. Depende e, kunwari formal 'yung party, and then after party, meron siyang cocktails. Siyempre black dress, safest 'yun. Anytime, kahit saan, pwede kang pumunta nang naka-black dress ka. Pero halimbawa casual lang, [okay na ang] tattered jeans and blousy top.

Name one kikay item you can’t get enough of.

Hindi ko kayang lumabas ng bahay nang walang cheek tint (laughs). That’s the magic! 'Di ba kasi lagi akong puyat because of Music Uplate Live, so feeling ko low blood ako. 'Pag lumabas ako nang walang cheek tint, parang may sakit ako. So kailangan lagi akong may cheek tint. Ano ba 'yan, alam na nila.

How do you plan an outfit for a show or a gig?

Kung ako lang mag-isa, wala akong assistant, like 'pag pupunta ako ng States for a series of concerts, ang ginagawa ko, tinatawagan ko na 'yung stylists ko para ma-prepare na nila 'yung outfits for five concerts. Sila na 'yung magse-set na ito 'yung susuotin mo sa first, ito sa pangalawa, pang-apat, panlima, hanggang sa pinakahuli. Pati 'yung mga susuotin ko sa promotions, like kunwari magvi-visit kami ng stores and Filipinos ang pupunta dun. So naka-setup na lahat 'yun, hindi na 'ko nag-iisip. Malaki talaga ang tulong ng may stylist ka. Or halimbawa wala ka namang stylist: may gigs ako around the Philippines lang, minsan ako na ang nagsa-style sa sarili ko. Bago ako umalis ng bahay sine-set ko na, ito 'yung susuotin ko para hindi masikip 'yung maleta ko, ito na 'yung isang buong outfit. Kung kailangan ko pa ng isa pa 'pag nagbago 'yung isip ko before the show, at least may isa lang, tapos 'yung pambahay nakalagay na dun, 'yung pantulog, tapos 'yung pampunta na rin sa airport kinabukasan.

If you were given a chance to splurge, what would you spend on and why?

Technology--gadgets. Mahilig ako sa gadgets, sobra. Ay, pangarap lang naman 'di ba? Kotse. Gusto kong magkaroon ng maraming maraming kotse. Kagabi nagkwentuhan kami ng friend ko, sabi niya 'yung mom niya nag-drive ng Volvo, tapos na-hit sila ng train, ayun buhay pa rin siya. So parang ako, "Ay, 'pag bibili ako ng kotse, gusto ko Volvo." Gusto ko ng BMW, gusto ko ng Porsche. Hanggang pangarap pa lang. Kailangan kong mag-trabaho.

What fashion or beauty advice could you give our readers?

Sa lahat ng Cosmo readers, ang maibibigay ko na advice sa inyo, baka mas marunong pa kayo sa'kin. Hindi, joke lang. Mas maganda kung 'yung sinusuot n'yong damit, gusto ninyo, hindi 'yung pinasuot lang sa inyo ng ibang tao. Kasi minsan, kahit gaano pa kaganda 'yung damit, kung 'di n'yo gusto, kahit gaano pa ka-mahal--minsan nga mas mura na, mas kumportable ka pa, kaysa 'yung sobrang mamahalin tapos 'di ka kumportable. Mas maganda na mas kumportable kayo. Kung ano 'yung style n'yo ilabas n'yo lang. 'Wag kayong matakot sa kung ano'ng sasabihin ng ibang tao, as long as masaya kayo sa sinusuot n'yo, go lang. Pero 'wag lang 'yung nakaka-ano naman sa boys, 'yung magkakasala na sila sa mga sinusuot n'yo. 'Yung parang sophisticated pa rin, and alam n'yo 'yung identity ninyo. Let your light shine, galing sa loob, palabas. Mano-notice na nila 'yun, "Uy ang ganda mo ah." Yes, naks naman.

So what are you working on now?

Na-excite ako nung tinanong mo [ako tungkol sa] project. Gumagawa na ako ng kanta, kasi bubuo ako ng female rock band, pero hindi ako vocalist, bassist lang ako. I bought a bass guitar nung isang linggo. Nagpa-practice ako everyday. Nagka-blister na nga ako e. Kasi, when you want something, gagawin mo ang lahat para dun, if you want to excel. And, ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng ganitong drive and thirst to do something. Kasama ko dun 'yung dating bocalista ng Moonstar 88, si Acel van Ommen. And then meron kaming drummer na sobrang galing. Babae siya pero para siyang halimaw mag-drums. Na-inspire ako kasi ang galing e, parang "Bakit 'di kaya ako magtayo ng female band? Sobrang astig nito!" So next year, ako rin 'yung magpro-produce. This is the first album na ipro-produce ko. Na-inspire din ako kasi ako 'yung nag-produce ng Jeepney Love Story music video, 'yung nakikita sa MYX ngayon, 'yung animated and kasama si Ivan of PBB and si Kuya Piolo. After that, [naisip ko] "Kaya naman pala e. Gumawa pa tayo ng mas malaki. Why not a whole album na 'yung i-produce ko, tapos gawa ako ng banda." Excited ako and ise-set aside ko muna 'yung sarili kong album. Marami na rin akong pondo ng songs. As much as possible, ifo-focus ko muna 'yung energy ko sa isa para hindi kalat-kalat, so female band next year! Yeah!

PANGINOON - YENG CONSTANTINO

Panginoon Lyrics By Yeng Constantino


PANGINOON

1st Stanza

Ako’y walang saysay, akala ko ako ay tunay

Pilit naglalakbay, ang aking buhay

Ngunit nag-iintay

Ang aking kahapon, paulit-ulit bumabalik

Nakikitang sarili, lumalangoy ngunit sa putik.


1st Refrain:

Ngunit iba ka, pano mo ko nakita..


Chorus:

Pinulot mo ako, nung akala kong ako’y nag-iisa,

Kulang ba ang tinig ko

Para awitan at purihin ka,

PANGINOON(3x)


2nd stanza

Ngayon alam ko na, ang ibig sabihin ng mabuhay

Ngayong kapiling ka, hinding hindi na mag-iisa

Dahil ikaw ang liwanag, sa gabi kapag ako’y tumatangis

At ikaw ang umaga, sa pagmulat ko’y nakangiti


2nd Refrain


Ako’y nasasabik, sa iyong pagbabalik..


Chorus:

Pinulot mo ako, nung akala kong ako’y nag-iisa,

Kulang ba ang tinig ko, para awitan at purihin ka

PANGINOON(3x)


BRIDGE:

Kulang ba kahit ibigay ko ang lahat

Maging ang buhay ko’y hindi pa sapat

Pero hayaan mong ibigay ko ang lahat

Nang ang puso ko sayo’y maging tapat oh…

PANGINOON


Chorus:

Pinulot mo ako, nung akala kong ako’y nag-iisa,

Kulang ba ang tinig ko, para awitan at purihin ka,

PANGINOON

Pinulot mo ako, nung akala kong ako’y nag-iisa,

kulang ba ang tinig ko, parasabihin kong mahal kita

PANGINOON(3x)



I'm really inspired with this song so I decided to do vidding.
Here it is:

OT: PARAMORE DISBANDING?

And I thought I will be able to watch them together live, I guess I have to turn down the thought of it, especially now that it is official; the Farro brothers has decided to leave the group. And it is so heartbreaking. :’(

Source/s: http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/josh_and_zac_farro_leave_paramore/

Well I guess paramore is not yet done, as Hayley along with Taylor and Jeremy stays and plans to continue what they have started, it was disappointing though that the Farro brothers decided to leave since they were the one who founded the band itself, well I guess as a fan, we must respect their decision.

Long live Paramore!

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cuz I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! Ohhh..
It's not a dream anymore! It’s worth fighting for.

God knows the world doesn’t need another band, (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
But what a waste it would’ve been! (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
I can't believe we almost hung it up (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're just getting started (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)

If you’re a paramore fan, you’ll definitely understand those lines clearly.. aww it really breaks my heart now! :'(

ASAP XV THAT'S CHRISTMAS GROUP 1

Yesterday ASAP XV celebrated their "That's Christmas" special, yearly all asap stars were divided into three groups to perform a Christmas production number.




This Year Yeng Constantino dances and grooves with group 1, who performed a very inspiring production number just in time for celebrating the Yuletide season.



I think that the message of the prod was to give love even though it is not actually Christmas. Like we should treat each day as Christmas.



I'm really amazed by Sir Gary's portrayal of the Grinch. :) And of course who would have fail to noticed? Hindi lang bida sa kantahan si Yeng, she dances well too! Right? :D

Though they didn't win, they still did a great job! The real meaning of Christmas was clearly shown in their prod! :D

NEW SONG FROM YENG

Here it is:

Nananaginip ba ko?

by: yeng constantino

Nananaginip ba ako?

ako ay nasa piling mo…

parang ayaw na magising…

kung ikaw ang kapiling..

kung ikaw ang kapiling

Nananaginip ba ako?

parang baligtad ang mundo…

ako sayo’y nakatingin..

ayokong mabitin…

ayokong mabitin

*** pwede bang huminto ang mundo?

pwede ba’ng dito muna tayo?

chorus:

kung ikaw ay ‘sang pantasya na

pag mulat ko’y mawawala

di na mumulat pa

Kung ika’y tulad ng ‘sang kanta

tatlong minuto’t mawawala

…. DI NA KO TITIGIL SA PAGKANTA

Nananaginip nanaman?

ikaw ay nahahawakan…

kamay mo sa aking kamay…

parang ulap ang labi…

parang ulap ang labi…

*** pwede bang huminto ang mundo

pwede ba’ng dito muna tayo?

Chorus:

kung ikaw ay ‘sang pantasya na…

pag mulat ko’y mawawala…

di na mumulat pa…

Kung ika’y tulad ng ‘sang kanta

tatlong minuto’t mawawala

DI NA KO TITIGIL SA PAGKANTA

ha… ha ha.. ha ha ha… ha… ha ha…

la la la… lalala… lalalalala…

*** pwede bang huminto ang mundo?

YENG CONSTANTINO ROCKS SUBIC

So this is it!

Finally last December 11, 2010 I was able to jump in along the crowd with my fellow Olangapeños as Yeng Constantino rock our night with her awesome show held at Night Market Subic! This is actually my second time seeing her performing live on stage. I just want to give my special shout out to my friends who were with me that night, Julie, Mhay, Kim and Ashley (lol), thanks guys you’re the sweetest! Thanks for accompanying me, sinamahan niyo pa rin ako kahit mild fan lang kayo ni Yeng! LOL.

We went to the venue as early as 7pm, because for sure lots of people would want to see Yeng so it is better if we save our spot, plus we still want to walk around at the theme park. My friends want it badly to ride ‘Taga Disco’ and I was like thinking if riding it would kill me. hehe.. I somehow see myself to the Korean girl whom I think almost died riding it. LOL. I still need to find some courage to ride it next time! LOL. So there after going around the theme park we headed back at the concert venue, we’ve found the perfect spot and somehow we felt delighted at the early shows they have, like singing contest and bikini pageant. Yep, Bikini pageant! Emphasize to the BIKINI… LOL. (para kasing di bagay diba… bikini pageant and rock show? Hmm.. haha) I’m so excited for Yeng to show up that night, well yun naman talaga pinunta namen dun right, not the bikini pageant… haha… so there good things comes to those who patiently waits, at 10:30pm I saw Morning Glory setting up on stage! It was my first time seeing the rest of the band.

And yeah, finally Yeng showed up!!! She was so gorgeous in her outfit! You’ll just have to love her “Jesus is my friend-shirt” plus her skull printed jacket (reminds me of Sunako.. hehe)! The crowd went wild as Yeng greeted us with her awesome performance of her very own hit song “time in”. The crowd just couldn’t help but to sing along. The next song she sang was My Girl’s OST, “Sabihin mo na”.

Yeng also shows her wacky side, as she delighted the crowd with her witty and funny spiels. I just love her spiels! While introducing her next song, who would have forgotten this line that night, I quote here (not verbatim though), “Yung next na kakantahin ko eh themesong ng isang teleserye na kung saan may isang babaeng seksi, parang ako lang…*laugh* … napakakinis at napakaganda… *crowd-cheers* nangangarap lang.. minsan lang yun eh.. pwede ba? *laugh* this is from.. DYOSA”. She also did some awesome renditions of phenomenal OPM songs such as "Magasin" and "Hinahanap-hanap Kita", from Eraserheads and Rivermaya respectively. I remember, she also sang “Laklak” though I really wish that she finish singing it, then OMO the next song was my favorite song “Jeepney Lovestory”, it was supposed to be her last song but the crowd insisted for “Hawak Kamay”. The crowd went singing as Yeng gratefully granted the request and sang the song that made who she is now or put her to where she is now as she said herself. This was actually my favorite part. One thing I really like about Yeng is that she never fails to praise God whenever she performs. Somehow I know this is the reason why God uses Yeng to inspire and to touch lives with just the way she is and through her music. It was indeed a splendid full of rock night that I will never forget. Like hello I’m a big fan here. :D She is truly an amazing performer with a big heart! I really couldn’t put it into words on how happy I am that night, that was an awesome early Christmas treat! Thank you papa God.

HAYLEY WILLIAMS V.S. YENG CONSTANTINO

Ok just a random blog about these two great singers. Recently or should I say yesterday, I encountered this so called “hate posts to Yeng Constantino” coming from an obviously Paramore fan (where Hayley is the lead vocals). She/He said that Yeng copies Hayley Williams and she’s/he’s very sure ‘bout it and I was like WTF?? That’s when it all started, believe it or not, my inner weirdness works once again, lol. I started to ask myself, why do people always tend to compare almost everything? Well the very reason that pops out in my mind is that people set standards for their selves. So true? I know right, I myself too. But what I mean about setting this “standards” is that it gets so mundane that when they actually get stuck with it and something “better” or almost the same as it is comes along, they started to have closed eyes and closed ears. In short, they become closed minded! Take my words, I’ve learned it trough the best mentor in town, “my experience”.



Anyways let’s go back to Yeng and Hayley. I’ve been a fan of Ms. Yeng Constantino since the day I insist myself to watch local station (Yeah, I’m a Disney kid! And now growing up sucks!!!! Lol ). There I was able to watch a reality TV show entitled “Pinoy Dream Academy”, at first I wasn’t so fond to it, not until I saw this guy name Jun Hirano (WTF? What happen to Yeng?lol.. wait just a sec… ). He’s so cute and he sings very great. Days past and I started to get hooked with the show. Then all of a suddenly the participants of the said reality show was given a chance to sing their own composition, and the very moment I heard the line… “Minsan madarama mong kay bigat ng problema….” Damn I don’t know but it was like I’m in love with the song the very first time I’ve laid my ears on it! Yes it was Yeng’s “Hawak Kamay”. Actually that song saves me! From then on I rooted for Yeng Constantino to win! And yes she won! And up to now I continue listening to her music. The feeling I’ve got from listening to her songs, word by word…. Damn I tell you that’s priceless!




Now let’s go on with Hayley Williams. Actually before the band Paramore get into the mainstream, I’m actually a fan! Well thanks to a highschool friend of mine, (hey Erica!!) who introduced them to me. She knew that I’m fond to rock and alternative songs so she let me borrow her Paramore cd’s. The very first song I heard was “Misery Business” and I remember I told myself, this is what you call music! Lol. Then boom, I became a paramore fan. I started to browse some of their songs and some facts about them through the internet… and I feel like I did the greatest discovery of my life ever since! Lol.

So you see, I really should know if Yeng imitates Hayley, because I’m a fan of both. For me they have their own unique style not just in singing but also with their character. Maybe if we talk about similarities, one common thing we could get is that, both are great and awesome singers who make great music for us.

Music means a lot to me.
Music is like the Air, without it I’ll die.

I’m so thankful for Yeng and Hayley for the great music. Both are epitome of awesome soulful musicians!

POP ROCK IN THE PHILIPPINES

NOTES ON CONTEMPORARY PINOY RAKENROL: WHY POP ROCK AIN’T WHAT YOU THINK

December 14th, 2010

There isn’t a rocker chick that’s more visible in these shores than Yeng Constantino, and to dismiss her as just another network creation would be unfair. In fact, if you had a sense of Yeng, you would know that when she was a contestant on Pinoy Dream Academy, she seemed the most unlikely to win: she was surrounded by sexy sirens ready to be pop stars, as well as pretty boys ready to work the kilig factor. Yeng meanwhile was the girl with a rock band, the one who appeared in Chuck Taylors for most of the season, and would reconfigure songs like “I Will Survive” before we saw David Cook do it on American Idol.

But, too, Yeng had talent. So much of it that by the end of that season, and by the time she won, her original song “Hawak Kamay” was already on repeat in our heads. In fact, “Hawak Kamay” had become the theme song not just of that season of PDA but of every other love story real and imagined, including cinematic: it would come to be theme song of a Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo starrer—enough to make it bigger than Yeng could imagine.

And Yeng was no one-hit wonder. In fact she would fare much better than most reality show winners, save for Sarah Geronimo who’s in a genre all her own (and will be reason for another essay). What is extraordinary about Yeng though is the fact that she’s in a rocker-chick space all her own. After all, we have lost track of Barbie Almalbis and Kitchie Nadal, and even in relation to them, Yeng would still be different: she ain’t of the rich, is willing to make fun of herself, and is more rakenrol than we imagine.

But also, she speaks with a humility that’s borne of her social class, the one that’s overwhelmed by the kind of success that very few are lucky enough to have. She has kept the band she had pre-PDA win called Morning Glory, and that’s about all I have to say about that name. While Yeng’s look has changed slowly but surely in pictorials and album covers given the expectations and requirements of her home network, she has ceased to be uncomfortable with it. Instead, in instances when she can be herself, she actually looks like the anti-thesis to her made-up, highly manufactured image. Have you seen her on Music Uplate Live? Given the late hours of this show, Yeng is less made-up here, and just seems more rakenrol—and one is reminded of how she was exactly this before she had to conform.

And yes, her songs speak of a sense of class, without it being heavy and sad. Instead there is a sense of what’s default about class, and how one can rise to the occasion of dreaming. Of course Yeng stands for exactly this, given her humble beginnings, but it also stands for the kind of rakenrol that she has consistently made popular in these shores, never mind that it might not be what we think pop rock should be.

The truth is you wouldn’t know pop rock in this country, if you don’t know Yeng Constantino.
