Bagong Kanta Tungkol sa Pilipinas

Naaaliw ako kapag may nababalitaan akong foreigners na kumakanta ng awiting Pinoy. Mas nakaka-impress kapag nagco-compose sila ng kanta tungkol sa Pilipinas. Here's the lyrics to one such song written by Julien Drolon, a French music artist:

PHIL SO GOOD Lyrics

Paradise islands, white sand beach

Tropical jungles where tribes still live

Land of Rizal and the guitar strings

Gotta find some time to live it here

I am in the Philippines x 3

And I feel so good, so good

People speak tagalog, sometimes taglish

They love to have fun, they know how to live

With a warm welcome, they will make you feel

Like it is your turn to smile and sing

I am in the Philippines x 3

And I feel so good, so good

comma down selectah…

seat back relax uminum ng beer

itaas ang bote isigaw ang cheers

lay back, while listenin smooth jazz and

feel the cold breeze and keep the wheels blazin

cause all we need is a time to relax

ihanda na ang serbeza lets drink some wapak

sige sige dont stop, non stop ang saya

pag-katapos ng lahat libutin luzviminda

tawagan mo na si jo and i will text julien

hatakin na si joven all over again

cause the best thing in life is life and that’s true

huwag hayaan ang saya lagpasan ka nito

take a zip just a trip and take a deep breath

libutin tiaong gubat all by your self

fiyah grill, cold beer, lay back and chill

watch the daet sunsets thats the thrill

sounds cool huh

I am in the Philippines x 3

And I feel so good, so good

Boracay in summer, I went there twice

Wanna feel colder, go to the rice terraces

Palawan is where I took my love

She wanted a romance under the sun

Surf is the best in Siargao

You can also dance up to Malasimbo

And when I need a break from Manila

I got a secret place that I won’t say to ya

I am in the Philippines x 3

And I feel so good, so good
