00:00Sure, you didn't think twice about changing your name when you became famous.
00:06How did you become famous from high school?
00:08We were always the favorite of every school when there was a school fair.
00:13So that's how it started.
00:15We were always invited to school fairs.
00:18We were used to singing in school fairs.
00:21Until we got a name, we were suddenly invited to TV shows.
00:25How did you feel when your songs weren't included in the karaoke nights of Filipinos?
00:31Nothing.
00:32What's the word in Tagalog?
00:35Nakakataba ng puso.
00:36Wow!
00:37Yeah, you know that one.
00:39How do you say that in English?
00:40Fatteng, staking your heart.
00:43Staking your heart.
00:44I want to ask you, Fonzy.
00:46Out of all your dad's songs, what's your favorite?
00:50There are two.
00:51Two? What are they?
00:53Either Paano or Nakapagtataka.
00:57Why is that?
00:58I guess it's the feeling that you evoke whenever you listen to it.
01:04That's other than timeless.
01:07It's very relatable.
01:08For me, one of my favorites is Blue Jeans.
01:12That's why we have something to talk about.
01:14Why? You were so young when you listened to Blue Jeans.
01:16Yes, it's my grandmother's favorite too.
01:18And because of that,
01:20Blue Jeans is in!
01:24See?
01:25There's a reason for it.
01:28Here are our jeans.
01:29But this is our pillow.
01:31There are pictures in the pocket.
01:33Is this for sleeping?
01:34No.
01:35There are pictures in the pocket.
01:37You just have to explain the story behind the photos.
01:40First,
01:43Oh my gosh.
01:45Oh my God, my friend.
01:47It's Danny.
01:48Yes.
01:49Yeah, he passed away in 2022.
01:53How was the acceptance of the group?
01:56How was the change?
01:57And now that you're performing again,
02:00but you're missing one member.
02:02Actually, we really miss him.
02:04What do you mean?
02:05We really miss him because
02:07can you imagine, for 45 years,
02:11we've been performing together
02:13and he's our lead spokesperson on stage.
02:18All of our banters, all of our joys,
02:20it's like a gimmick.
02:22Where does he go?
02:23He's in the middle, right?
02:24We're like rocks.
02:26Then Jim and I started last year.
02:32It's like we're running through space.
02:35It's like we're floating.
02:37Like, who's going to say that?
02:39Oh, you're waiting for him.
02:42So, that's why actually in our major shows,
02:47we have a portion where we sing with him.
02:52And your last tour?
02:53Yeah, our last tour in the US,
02:56we brought his son, Jobim.
02:59He sings also?
03:00Yeah.
03:01If there's anything you would want to say to Sir Danny,
03:05what is it?
03:06We really miss you,
03:07especially when we have very, very successful shows.
03:11We wish we could share it with you.
03:12I'm sure he's jumping in the air, right?
03:16When he sees us, he'll be like,
03:17Hey, Bongga!
03:18You guys are doing it again.
03:19So, yeah.
03:22We were with him when we were building The Apon
03:25to something greater than us.
03:30Because, you know, Apo,
03:32that's why we don't solo.
03:34We can't solo.
03:37No, we're so strong when we're together.
