Eraserheads: A Legend

Eraserheads. No band in the Philippines has been more successful than the Eheads. And even they have disbanded over a decade ago, their popularity has remained and the songs they have composed are still played in the radios nationwide. The status of Eheads in the Philippines is comparable to the legendary band The Beatles worldwide. Four talented musicians in one band made one of the most successful debut that revolutionized the music scene in the country. The time when OPM rock’n’roll was dying the Eheads paved their way and revived the local bands genre. They were considered gods by the Filipino people influencing their daily lives by the songs the band created. Songs which was forever sang in the streets and parties. Songs that achieved the status of “Undying Songs.”

ERASERHEADS. A Legend.

One of there popular songs. Ligaya  (English: Joy) is the first single of the Eraserheads which came from their debut album, Ultraelectromagnetic pop. This is the concert version.

Ilang awit pa ba ang aawitin, o giliw ko?

Ilang ulit pa ba ang uulitin, o giliw ko?
Tatlong oras na akong nagpapacute sa iyo
Di mo man lang napapansin ang bagong t-shirt ko

Ilang isaw pa ba ang kakain, o giliw ko?
Ilang tanzan pa ba ang iipunin, o giliw ko?
Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo
Wag mo lang ipagkait ang hinahanap ko

[Chorus]
Sagutin mo lang ako, aking sinta'y walang humpay, na ligaya
At asahang iibigin ka, sa tanghali, sa gabi at umaga
Wag ka sanang magtanong at magduda
Dahil ang puso ko'y walang pangamba
Lahat tayo'y mabubuhay na tahimika'at buong ligaya

Oooh... ooooh... ooooh... 

Ilang ahit pa ba ang aahitin, o giliw ko?
Ilang hirit pa ba ang hihiritin, o giliw ko?
Di naman ako mangyakis tulad nang iba
Pinapangako ko sa iyo na igagalang ka

(REPEAT CHOROS)

At asahang iibigin ka, sa tanghali, sa gabi at umaga
Wag ka sanang magtanong at magduda
Dahil ang puso ko'y walang pangamba
Lahat tayo'y mabubuhay na tahimika'at buong Ligaya

This is the album version with lyrics. Enjoy.
