I left as a kid in the 80's. In 2017 I didn't know about Philippine politics. I found this song and was very touched. So I copied and added images of poor children in dumpsites with caption about government neglect and uploaded in our FilAm FB and hometown FB. I was so shocked the next day I got bashed very badly. They insisted I didn't put the year and timeframe on purpose to make it look like their President Duterte was a bad President. They accused me of being a drug addict, a dilawan, etc. FB would not do anything than just recommend I block them. I started digging out about politics and people. I have come to the conclusion that sadly half of my Filipino Countrymen particularly supporters former President Duterte are ignorant, angry, vile, hateful, vicious and the most despicable among all the group of people I encountered in the internet. Duterte himself spew obscenity but I wouldn't blame him for playing politics because that's how he got votes from the low lives who unfortunately are the majority. I'm just fortunate that all my grandparents though poor are not one of those disgusting type of Filipinos whom the Spaniard used to call as ignoramouos and ladrones. Ignorant, Blind Fanatics and Low Lives thieves.
I was there and watched this competition cuz i worked in the embassy.. Many were great singers but these kids were the best. Especially Jason who sang with intensity on stage. You can really feel it. So proud when they were proclaimed grand champion.
Nakaka proud maging pinoy during those times. I was there in Japan with my band when this happened at hapones pa Mismo ang nagbalita sa akin na Philippines just won the grand prize 👍👍👍
Return to a land called paraiso A place where a dying river ends No birds dare fly over paraiso No space allows them to endure The smoke that screens the air The grass that's never there And if I could see a single bird, what a joy I try to write some words and create A simple song to be heard By the rest of the world I live in this land called paraiso In a house made of cardboard floors and walls I learned to be free in paraiso Free to claim anything I see Matching rags for my clothes Plastic bags for the cold And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy I never fight to take someone Else's coins and live with fear Like the rest of the boys Paraiso, help me make a stand Paraiso, take me by the hand Paraiso, make the world understand That if I could see a single bird, what a joy This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy I never fight to take someone Else's coins and live with fear Like the rest of the boys Paraiso, help me make a stand Paraiso, take me by the hand Paraiso, make the world understand That if I could see a single bird, what a joy This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world Paraiso, help me make a stand Paraiso, take me by the hand Paraiso, make the world understand That if I could see a single bird, what a joy This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world And if I could see a single bird, what a joy This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world
Hindi ko makakalimutan ang kanta nila na Mama when I was in Grade 6. One of the pupil in a Pilot school singb he song in front of ua.. now i'm 43 yrs old and i still love the music of Smokey mountain.❤️❤️❤️
Crying over this song... The message couldn't be more true until now, both in environment and social aspect. That if I could see a single bird, what a joy This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world
This performance can win Got Talent or on a level of MAMA live stages. If this perf is done today where SNS is prevalent, it would have been an absolute trend.
Not really. may mga sumikat tayong kanta pero we never really dominated asia. Give me examples na nagkaroon tayo ng overwhelming success sa asia tulad ng F4 , Utada Hikaru , BTS?
Kasi ngayon pag guwapo or maganda kahit di na kagalingan idol na agad. Nuon pag sinabing singing quality ng voice talaga. Ngayon kasi mukha na basehan.
Jayson Anganan's voice is rare... He now resides I think in Isabela..living a simple life with his family and he has a youtube channel too. All SM members have superb singing skills... Chedi is so pretty!
Before they won in this music fest, they were scrutinized by toxic fans in the Phils saying they cant match their level from the 1st batch. But Pinoy community were amazed that they won
is so nice and very proud will watching how get a grand champ win Smokey mountain is one of My favourite team up and I want forget of many lines that delivering his song everytime I heard this and every moment of my life
Panahon ko to 😍hanggang ngaun pag napapanood ko to nananayo balahibo ko favorite ko sila noon sbra nabili pko tape PA uso Pati poster pati pormahan chuck Taylor 😂
Nagtatalo sila ngayon sino talaga ang nag-open ng doors for PPop. Bago magkaroon ng SB19 at Bini, may Smokey Mountain nang nauna sa paghakot ng pagkilala abroad. Pinabayaan lang talaga ng record labels at government ang mga talent natin noon. If only PPop or OPM during the 80s, 90s, and 2000s, were supported by the government and record labels didn't have poor handling of talents, hindi tayo mauungusan ng KPop. The Millennials and Gen Zs must know that SB19, Bini and other PPop groups are only resurrecting our golden age for PPop/OPM dahil dati na tayong nangunguna sa Asya. Isa pa sa maganda noon hindi uso ang toxic fan war sa OPM/PPop, dun lang yun sa mga actors/actresses tulad ng Nora-Vilma.
Kaya hindi umusad ung music industry ng pinas dahil na din sa station wars kung artist ka ng abs cbn, d ka pwede mag perform sa gma, sa halip mag tulungan at ma ngarap e dominate ung international nag hatakan tayo pa baba sa pinas pa lang
Thumbs up sa mga nanoood 2024..
Goosebumps pa rin in 2024 ❤
I remembered this song from the radio 😭 also this was what our group song was in our recital for voice 😭😭😭

Bahala na magalit lahat ng fans ng Kpop, dahil wala talagang makakatalo sa voice quality ng "Smokey Mountain" sa mga performance nila noon.
They were my favorite during my childhood days.
goosebumps ❤
True! My favorite group during my teen years until now.
I am an Army BTS fan, but no one can beat the Filipinos. I get goosebumps whenever I watch this video❤️
Naalala ko pa nuong Grade 2 ako, yan ang kinakanta ko sa klase.
I was there and watched this competition cuz i worked in the embassy.. Many were great singers but these kids were the best. Especially Jason who sang with intensity on stage. You can really feel it. So proud when they were proclaimed grand champion.
Listening 05/17/2024 Philippines
pure talent, no autotunes, no apps, no advanced cosmetics....it took me years to realize 😮
Kakaiyak yung lyric. Ryan Vayabyab is such a genius
Ryan Cayabyab + Smokey Mountain Quality won’t go unnoticed in 2024 ❤
ito talaga ang tunay na legends of the 90's. kahit ngayon ramdam pa rin mga kanta nila. kahit sa ibang bansa.
September 2023 and still listening to this and loving it here in India 🇮🇳❤❤❤
naiiyak ako, parang kahapon lang nangyare at sobrang nakakaproud 😭
😭😭😭😭😭
goosebumpsss ❤❤❤
Nakaka proud maging pinoy during those times. I was there in Japan with my band when this happened at hapones pa Mismo ang nagbalita sa akin na Philippines just won the grand prize 👍👍👍
bago pa magka KPOP
may Smokey Mountain na tayo
Return to a land called paraiso
A place where a dying river ends
No birds dare fly over paraiso
No space allows them to endure
The smoke that screens the air
The grass that's never there
And if I could see a single bird, what a joy
I try to write some words and create
A simple song to be heard
By the rest of the world
I live in this land called paraiso
In a house made of cardboard floors and walls
I learned to be free in paraiso
Free to claim anything I see
Matching rags for my clothes
Plastic bags for the cold
And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy
I never fight to take someone
Else's coins and live with fear
Like the rest of the boys
Paraiso, help me make a stand
Paraiso, take me by the hand
Paraiso, make the world understand
That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
This tired and hungry land could expect
Some truth and hope and respect
From the rest of the world
And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy
I never fight to take someone
Else's coins and live with fear
Like the rest of the boys
Paraiso, help me make a stand
Paraiso, take me by the hand
Paraiso, make the world understand
That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
This tired and hungry land could expect
Some truth and hope and respect
From the rest of the world
Paraiso, help me make a stand
Paraiso, take me by the hand
Paraiso, make the world understand
That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
This tired and hungry land could expect
Some truth and hope and respect
From the rest of the world
And if I could see a single bird, what a joy
This tired and hungry land could expect
Some truth and hope and respect
From the rest of the world
🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️😱
Thanks for the lyrics
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Naiiyak ako! Ang tanda ko na pala. 8yrs old pa lang ako nito. haha
Ako din bata pa ako nung narinig ko ito,
jayson's voice and singing skills are way ahead of his time. underrated.
Hindi ko makakalimutan ang kanta nila na Mama when I was in Grade 6. One of the pupil in a Pilot school singb he song in front of ua.. now i'm 43 yrs old and i still love the music of Smokey mountain.❤️❤️❤️
Crying over this song...
The message couldn't be more true until now, both in environment and social aspect.

This performance deserves the GOLDEN BUZZER!
This performance can win Got Talent or on a level of MAMA live stages. If this perf is done today where SNS is prevalent, it would have been an absolute trend.
Omg!!! I'm still amaze if Jayson Angangan's captivating voice

Ang ganda talaga ng kanta na to
Ngayon kinain na ng k-pop. Dati tayo ang sikat sa Asya. Sabagay pana panahon lang po tlga😊
Not really. may mga sumikat tayong kanta pero we never really dominated asia. Give me examples na nagkaroon tayo ng overwhelming success sa asia tulad ng F4 , Utada Hikaru , BTS?
Kasi ngayon pag guwapo or maganda kahit di na kagalingan idol na agad. Nuon pag sinabing singing quality ng voice talaga. Ngayon kasi mukha na basehan.
Japan ang sikat sa music sa asya

Sayang at di tinuloy ni Lolit Solis yung singing career nya.
Sharon Kaylor na siya ngayon...Sumali siya sa America's Got Talent mid 2000s
Walang sinabi si IU dito
Wala pala c Geneva dto
akala ko so Geneva ang orig na babae iba pala,pero ganda ng boses niya,
They were the second generation of Smokey Mountain. Geneva was the original member.
