[CMPRGaming]

do u speak fluent tagalog?

[MelloBlend]

@CMPRGaming No I am learning as I go. I would say my Tagalog is broken but I study all songs I do in english first and then i learn the correct dialect for that song. I find it challenging but it works for me. I think on my third song, i may sound better I hope....:-)

[whywhywhymaki]

Wow. :D If you tell me that you're Filipino, I will believe you. hahaha... the accent is a dead giveaway though but what the hell. :))

[MelloBlend]

@whywhywhymaki Thanks for the comment. If you only knew how tough it was just to pronounce " gumuho sa ilalim ng iyong mga paa"....I must have rehearsed that more than a hundred times and still missed it a little..hahaha !!! Appreciate the comment :-)

[mahalkosijesus]

you did a great justice singing in the song.. yeng wrote it herself w/ a very special meaning story

[MelloBlend]

@mahalkosijesus Thank you for the comment. When I heard her rendition, I loved the song...It is a very moving song

[MelloBlend]

@245jerico You are very welcome and thanks for watching

[zzub8000]

MelloBlend you've got a nice voice. You've done a good job in singing this tagalog song with an American accent. I'm one of your fan now. Wow you're great man or shall I call you kabayan now.

[MelloBlend]

@zzub8000 Thanks for the props....I guess after my next tagalog song, I will be a Kabayan for sure huh...haha!! Thanks for the kind comment...come back for my next one I'm posting just days away

[IdiotPerspective]

Not bad dude! A little more practice and I'm sure you'll get there! :D

Check this out by the way! "Kay tagal cover by Andrew Philip" (Search it on YouTube). He's also an American just like you. He sings pretty well in Tagalog. You might wanna try and make a cover of this song too! I think the song would fit perfectly for you. ;)

[MelloBlend]

@IdiotPerspective Thanks for your comment, I will take a look at your video as well.

[lovegxx]

shit nose bleed nmn mae twang!

[MelloBlend]

@lovegxx I have no idea what this says but I hope it was good...lol

[lovegxx]

@MelloBlend sorry i forgot lol that means you sang it well with a good accent lol

[MelloBlend]

@theanimalover97 Thanks alot. I appreciate the nice comments. I hope you come back for my next song which will be Makita Kang Muli.....

[rugasyano]

2:58 was awesome. galing!

[MelloBlend]

@rugasyano Thanks for your insight. I like that buildup as well....thanks again

[DocTallyho]

WOW! Your love for this music caused you to pour in hours of personal time to record all pieces and background vocals! Now that's awesome! Thanks for appreciating Philippine muic! I'm...quite flattered that you appreciate this small part of Philippine culture. :)

[MelloBlend]

@DocTallyho I really appreciate your comment and thanks for the recognition. It took a lot of rehearsal for the guitar and singing not to mention pronunciation of the language which was challenging. After getting all the parts done, I was left with recording live and technical problems galore ensued with Windows Vista and my digital worstation. I finally got my final take at 2:30 AM and called it a day...hahahaha, thanks for watching

[junlyn6]

you're great..awesome..do you like tagalog songs? i want to hear more tagalog songs from you..
