      Ogie is the original artist and the composer of Bakit Ngayon ka Lang. he was singing solo.
      Freestyle and Pops Fernandez (Martin Nievera's ex-wife) just did a version of it. that version became popular especially to the younger people.
      hope you can dive into Freestyle's music because they are an awesome band. original vocalists are TOP SUZARSA and JINKEE VIDAL. my favorite song from Freestyle is BEFORE I LET YOU GO. pls react to the original version. thanks!!!

    Ogie is the composer of this song and he sang it as a solo performer as an original. Freestyle and many other popularized it as a duet

  • @garvinne
    @garvinne 2 роки тому +60

    "Bakit ngayon ka lang" was originally a solo song by Ogie (1993). The duet happened with Freestyle and Pops several years later during one of the band's concerts.
    I wish I knew whose idea it was to do the overlapping melodies and lyrics. The original melody and lyrics is carried by the male part.

  • @nicotabuldan
    @nicotabuldan 2 роки тому +17

    Bakit ngayon ka lang is originally Ogie.. Freestyle version is a cover.. they were searching for a song to perform with Pops for a concert and she suggested this song.. did a quick research😁😁

    Glad you discovered Pop Fernandez. She’s Martin Nievera’s ex-wife. They were the Concert King & Queen of the Philippines. Their son Robin Nievera, is the guitarist for Zia Quizon on Wish and she is the daughter of Zsa Zsa Padilla (you see her on ASAP with Regine, Martin & Gary V). So those two have impeccable musical pedigree.
    Ogre Alcasid wrote this song. If I may suggest, aside from looking up more of Pop Fernandez videos, maybe you’d like to review Obie Alcasid-written songs sang by your favorite Filipino singers. I believe he was a songwriter first before he became a huge OPM singer.
    Also, congrats on your 1MX Opening gig! You are are the best choice for that! You know and admire the artists and I know you’ll have a blast opening for them and getting to know them backstage. I hope you get that opportunity!
    And yes, more deep dives like this! Maybe covers of songs you like by different artists.
    This review is pretty cool!

    I think Ogie as a singer pales in comparison to himself as a composer, which most people tend to overlook or forget due to his success as singer, actor, and comedian. Btw i also notice that ogie usually sings his composed songs very casually, without trying hard to make it sound very good, and just trusting that its already good enough on its own, thats just what i think.

  • @marcsayson8026
    @marcsayson8026 2 роки тому +8

    ogie alcasid is the original singer / composer of the song late 80's or early 90's, its not a duet but done solo and in the early 2000's freestyle have been performing the song on their gigs rearrange the song as a duet for top and jinky and one of their major concerts they have pops as a guest and apparently the top and pops duet became so iconic that having the song as a duet is more popular than a solo

  • @aizenfritz873

    Three best things you need to look forward to when listening to Filipino music:
    1. Unique tones, long and high notes
    2. The good feelings, expression and emotions
    3. Melodies and harmonies
    I really find it fascinating whenever i'm listening to it.

    Freestyle and South Border were my top 2 bands in the early 2000s. I have all their albums in cassette tape. I'm also glad to see Pops Fernandez. She is a fantastic singer but she doesn't make many public appearances now so it's always nice to see a clip of her.

    The Original Composer is Ogie Alcasid. But Popularized Duet by Top Suzara is the male vocalist of Freestlye Band and duet with Pops Fernandez.🤩👍
    Anyway Pops Fernandez is the ex wife of Maritin Nievera. Martin N. who popularized the duet song Forever with Regine Velasquez.

    It’s a sad song if you really look at the lyrics. It’s a song about regret about missing out on a possible love since they had already made a choice to love someone else.

    Anyways nice catched Efra... you're correct this song is more on Male POV
    because the original was actually sang by ogie alcasid alone then it evolved into duets and got popularized by other singers like Freestyle, Erik & Angeline

    @rockstarsouth3405 2 роки тому +3

    Ogie originally wrote and composed it as a solo song, duet element (female voice repeating after a line) was introduced by Freestyle, that more RNB version is the most is the most popular version influencing everything going full circle back to Ogie with Regine performing in this style.

  • @jaycari
    @jaycari 2 роки тому +9

    Thanks for this RV, Wale and Efra! "Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang" is truly an iconic song. 😊 Just want to point out that the Filipino language doesn't have gendered pronouns, so the word "siya" in the lyrics can mean him/her and the song can be sung from either perspective. E.g. "At siya ba'y dapat ko nang limutin" can mean "And should I forget him/her"

    • @michelleveronica6097
      @michelleveronica6097 2 роки тому +1

      Well that was why it sounded one sided on Waleska and Efra's.
      I have always interpreted it as the duo were lovers outside marriage or something the like.
      And when we look it at marriage in the Philippines where there is no divorce, one would feel like the (right) person came too late, hence the question, "bakit ngayon ka lang?"

    • @jaycari
      @jaycari 2 роки тому

      @@michelleveronica6097 Yes, this is my interpretation of the song too and I think most people see it that way as well. :)
      I pointed out the gendered pronouns thing because at 18:57, when Efra and Waleska looked up the lyrics, the English translation made it sound like the song was mainly sung by the man and the woman is just there to harmonize. I brought up what "siya" means to hopefully give the song more nuance for them and for everyone else who likes the song but doesn't speak Tagalog.
      Anyone who's caught up in a "Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang" situation can definitely relate to it regardless of gender! :)

  • @PeachSanchez
    @PeachSanchez 2 роки тому

    Ogie wrote a lot of songs but this one i think was one of the most covered. Also, if i remember correctly. Ogie wrote this for Regine before they got together because he was married to a different woman before he and Regine got together.
    The title means "Why just now?" although there is not direct English translation but the thought is "why did u arrive just now in my life when someone else already owns my heart". It's such a tragic song.

    Bakit ngayon ka lang means why have you come just now (Haha i feel like there is an easier way to say or translate this but yea, thats all my brain can squeeze right now. Haha) It talks about someone coming your way while you are already in a relationship - a regret for what could have been.

'Duet' arrangement was popularized by Freestyle during one of their concerts with Pops Fernandez as their guest.

    Fun facts: When you say to a Filipino singer his/ her singing is kind of textbook, it sounds like a little bit an insult to them hehe coz they want to be par with they're unique, they're monster or the only one who can do it. That is why some of them are great singers coz the mentality they have is like "ok I can do better than this." hehe
