00:00Please welcome Angelo, Jeff, Raffi, Zoey, Pio, Manu, and David.
00:15It's literally raining in Manila as we talk today, but welcome to the program.
00:20Maraming, maraming salamat. Thank you.
00:22Thank you so much for having me.
00:24But let's begin because request ng...
00:28We have about 7,500 people in this studio.
00:36So, paano nabuo ang kantang ito?
00:38I guess we wanted to make a song that reflected yung ano natin, yung...
00:42Yung...
00:43Nung pandemic, nung nag-aalisan yung mga kaibigan namin.
00:46So, that song is about our friends who left the country in pursuit of a better life.
00:51So, short story.
00:52Paano napasok ang raining in Manila?
00:54Kasi yung mga kaibigan namin nag-masters, mga ganon.
00:58And yung raining in Manila, akala mo love song siya.
01:01Pero tungkol siya actually sa mga kaibigan namin na umalis na and hindi na kayo in touch.
01:06So, kahit yung mga lines na kamusta ka na, kahit huwag nang sagutin.
01:11Kasi ganon yung mga...
01:12When you're not in touch anymore, di ba?
01:14Ganon na lang yung mga usapan.
01:15You ask how they are, then they'll just say, I'm good.
01:18Mga ganon.
01:19So, it's about not being in touch and still hoping that they're the same person that you remember them.
01:26Nice story.
01:27Pero naalala ko kasi it was very controversial.
01:32Lalo na nung you released your teaser.
01:35Yes.
01:36Pinag-usapan ng husto, di ba?
01:38Yes, yes.
01:38Are you afraid of public backlash?
01:43I don't want to blanket it to say natakot kami sa backlash.
01:47I guess we are just watchful of when we are actually doing something wrong.
01:52Or kung empty backlash siya.
01:53Kung empty yung backlash, we don't take it to heart.
01:57No, but I like the sensitivity.
01:59At saka, mindful maybe is a word.
02:02Parang, you know, we care.
02:04Yeah.
02:04We care.
02:06And I think that's good.
02:07Balikan natin yung Raining in Manila.
02:09Kasi it's so huge.
02:10It's ang laki-laki ng kanta.
02:12When did you realize that it was so huge na parang,
02:16teka, iba na toho.
02:18I think, nung nag-tour kami,
02:21oh sige,
02:22nung nag-number one.
02:25Nung nag-number one.
02:25Hindi namin isip na,
02:26talaga, nag-number one.
02:27How did it,
02:29how did we get here?
02:30But may-may ganangan.
02:31Oh, kasi di namin napansinin.
02:32Hindi kami nagmamonitor ng charts,
02:34ng data.
02:35At that time,
02:36kasi ano lang kami,
02:37pa-hobby lang talaga namin yung Lola Amor at that time.
02:40So when we saw that this was happening,
02:42we didn't know what it meant
02:44because we weren't really chasing that level of...
02:48Until Chris Martin, I saw that, you know.
02:53What was happening?
02:55What was that? You were already accepted?
02:57Yes. During that show, actually,
02:59we were so excited because it was cold play.
03:03Yes.
03:03When we realized that we were in the middle of their set,
03:08it wasn't just in the opening act.
03:12We were saying,
03:13we were so excited about people in this song, right?
03:16At least Chris Martin will be together with us.
03:18And the way he treated you,
03:20I mean, you know,
03:20you know,
03:21it was really nice to hear,
03:23even if we watched it,
03:25that it was not a simple,
03:27ladies and gentlemen,
03:28no, no.
03:29You know,
03:30is it right?
03:30I mean,
03:31he was setting up.
03:33Yes.
03:33He was setting up the chords.
03:35Right.
03:35And then he tried to sing the chords.
03:38He did a few lines.
03:40He did well.
03:41And this is Coldplay,
03:42and this is Chris Martin.
03:44Yeah.
03:44So by that time,
03:45by that time,
03:46you were so excited,
03:47but you embraced it now that,
03:49ah, okay,
03:50ah,
03:51what are we now?
03:51It's raining in Manila now.
03:53I think at that point,
03:54it was when we thought,
03:56na grabe naman itong kanta
03:57na to hanggang Coldplay,
03:59gusto nila tugtogin
04:01na parang hindi pa to gas gas
04:02at this point.
04:03That the feeling of fear
04:04namin,
04:05na pag akitamin sa stage
04:06na baka walang kumanta,
04:08baka ba niya.
04:09I can't sing.
04:10I can't sing.
04:11I can't sing.
04:12I can't sing.
04:13I can't sing.
04:14I love the crowd to be angry because...
04:17You're a big concept.
04:18You're a big fan.
04:19You're a big fan.
04:20You're a big fan.
04:21Okay, that's valid.
04:23Then, Bito made.
04:25Oh, yeah.
04:26That parody I think was excellent.
04:29He made a song by a henyo.
04:32And you sang with him.
04:34What was that experience like?
04:38It's like meeting your hero.
04:40It's like meeting your hero.
04:42Yung parody niya,
04:43meron pa yung DVD dati ng parody niya.
04:46It's very easy to get along with
04:49and very warm.
04:50And it's also genuine.
04:53Okay.
