  • 27 days ago
Eric Gancio of Yano spills how he and former bandmate Dong Abay wrote this unforgettable rock hit in 1993. Their sound is known for oozing political and social themes. Like this one that received so many criticisms back in the day. Find out what the song title means, which part of the song is inspired by a real-life event, which part is fiction, and more about the process.

He also shares his thoughts on Parokya ni Edgar's parody cover of their song, which apparently didn't raise any legal question from him and most probably Dong Abay as well.

Looking back, this piece of music was undeniably the band's breakout song. And looking at the present, Eric is grateful it hit the airwaves nationwide and passed on to generations.
