This song feels like a warm embrace when life gets heavy. It is about staying and choosing someone even when things aren't easy anymore and hoping their light hasn't faded despite everything they've been through. This one is actually my favorite so I...
Aura - IV of Spades
"Multo" means ghost in Filipino, and this song is exactly that…haunting. It is about someone from the past that just won't leave your mind, plus all those what if moments and missed chances. Honestly, it's one of the most played Filipino songs for a ...
Multo - Cup of Joe
This song (uhaw or thirsty in English) is all about that quiet, aching kind of longing, like your heart is thirsty for someone you can't have. The lyrics use water-related words like “nalulunod” (drowning), “ulan” (rain), and “giniginaw” (feeling col...
Fun fact: I used to dedicate this to my former fencer crush lol.

Uhaw - Dilaw
Museo (or museum in English) is about admiring someone from afar, like they're a piece of art you can look at but never really have. The lyrics capture being captivated by someone's “larawan” (image) without them even knowing, and there is this bitte...
Museo - Eliza Maturan
About wanting to stay close to someone but worrying that confessing your feelings might mess things up (friendzone). It captures those little moments that suddenly feel tense or uncomfortable once you realize your feelings have changed.
Naiilang - Le John
This song is about finding that one person who brings calm when everything feels overwhelming. A gentle reminder to slow down, cherish the moments, and appreciate the people who make life feel a little lighter.
Sa Bawat Sandali - Amiel Sol
It's about loving someone so deeply that they become your home and your whole world. It is not just romantic, but it's also about finding comfort, safety, and a sense of belonging in a person (or even a place or community) that makes life feel comple...
Mundo - IV of Spades
When you want to love fully but are struggling to show it, this song is for you. It feels like a quiet confession like asking someone to look inside your heart, understand your intentions, and not give up on you. 🫠
Come Inside of My Heart - IV of Spades
The title means “thousands of moons (the one I'll come home to).” This one's about choosing someone again and again, through storms, disagreements, and time passing. Like a promise that no matter how long it takes, you'll always find your way back to...
Libu-Libong Buwan (Uuwian) - Kyle Raphael
This song feels like asking someone to ride through life with you, not just watch from the side. It's about trust, teamwork, and choosing each other through the ups and downs. The pre-chorus is actually my favorite part, always gets me every time. 🫶
Co-Pilot - Just Hush
Bawat daan means “every road” in English. The song is like someone being your safe place in a world full of doubts. Wherever life takes you, every road somehow leads back to them. I actually discovered this song on TikTok, and it stuck with me immedi...
Bawat Daan - Ebe Dencel
The lyrics show what it's like to be someone's safe place, a home they can always return to. It talks about standing by a loved one when they are lost, offering quiet support, and letting them know they're fully seen and accepted, even at their lowes...
Tahanan - El Manu
It explores how someone can become an ”ideal partner” based solely on their digital presence and social media appearance, despite the lack of a real-life connection. Kursunada doesn't really have a direct English translation but it roughly means obse...
Kursunada - Adie
The song tells a touching story of a young painter in the 1950s who falls in love with a woman he sees every day through a window. He spends his days painting her, not knowing she is blind and can't see his work. Lyrically, it is a heartfelt plea for...
Kusapiling - Anthony Meneses
“Oksihina” means oxygen in English, and the song compares a loved one to the air the artist breathes. He actually wrote it as a death note, a final message to his girlfriend when he was critically ill, his way of showing she was his reason to keep go...
Oksihina - Dionela
“Marilag” means majestic or beautiful. The song is an empowering anthem for all women to embrace their own inner beauty and divine worth. ✨
Marilag - Dionela
Sining means art, and this song is about love as a masterpiece. It shows how relationships can be delicate, complex, and beautiful, needing care and patience. It is about connecting deeply, being vulnerable, and creating something meaningful together...
Sining - Dionela, Jay R
Heartbreak does not always happen all at once. Instead, it is a slow erosion of intimacy and communication where the change is so gradual it becomes unavoidable only when it is too late to fix.
Unti-Unti - Up Dharma Down
