Ces Datu has a very maganda singing voice in this ad. Even the commercial is equally maganda. That makes me want to visit the Philippines during Christmas so I can experience what's in the clip.
i really want to go home!!!im almost 2 years here in Madrid!!!i miss a lot the christmas there...when i heard this song ive felt sad and homesick..i missed my granny and my dogs...and my firends and cousins and a lot!!!
wow!! one of the best commercial by DOT so far!! i like the song and the lyrics.plus the scenery here in the philippines....I hope not just for xmas but whole year-round, DOT promotes our country.
you will see also in this ad, there's no showing of the famous Boracay Island which considers a tourits paradise.. You will only see the beautiful islands of Palawan and the Panglao islands in Bohol.. its great that we have other places to go not just in Boracay.. our country is beautiful!! =)
at least, the DOT is saying, "hey! there are more interesting places to visit in the Philippines than Boracay, you know."
hopefully, the DOT will have this ad aired in international channels like CNN. it is time for us to be more aggressive in promoting our country to potential tourists the same way the Thais and the Malaysians are doing their job.
I love this commercial. There are times na hindi talaga pwedeng ilipat kapag iyan ang commercial. Philippines is really beautiful along with its culture and tourist spots. That's why it should be visited by other nationalities. Kaya dapat alagaan. I also love the Simbang gabi part.

lines from the song "Land of the Loving" (composed by David Benoit) that were used in the Smart-DOT ad:
Deep in your eyes is a promise
Love can be ours if we want it
Starting tonight ev'ry dream I ever knew
Here in your love I'll be staying
Fin'lly my life won't be living all alone
Here in the land of the loving I am home.
Here in your love I'll be staying
Fin'lly my life won't be living all alone
Here in the land of the loving I am home.
