First Draft

First draft of the Snow White Project….

I wrote this song around 2003. It’s a song inspired by the Korean Series Full House. It’s basically a song about infatuation. I really didn’t have anyone in mind while doing this. It’s too long though.  I think this was the time when I was still a hopeless romantic. But I think I passed that stage already. I’m just proud of this one. :)

This is also one of the songs that I first recorded and sang in public.

Purify my heart…

Song inspired by my college crush and a former co-worker whom I thought I fell in love with. Both of them were false alarms. 

But I had to admit they made me disappointed then not because of the unrequited love. They made me disappointed because my experiences with them made me less a woman. In short, they made me feel ugly. So this song inspired me to write this sometime 2005. But for some reasons, I couldn’t finish this song properly so I decided not to continue it. 

During the process, I learned to accept easily not to fall for guys who can’t seem to love me back. But some time 2008, I was inspired to redeem this song because of some experience that I could consider harassment. Good thing I have a quite good memory when it comes to lyrics and melodies that was why I was able to finish this song. It may not be radio-friendly though. But at least I’m proud of this. 

Trivia: The video would actually show how terrible traffic in EDSA is. Here, I’m also showing you a part of me as a Basilica Taal and Virgin of Caysasay devotee. 

It took me two years to finish this song. This is the first composition that recorded with a complete arrangement. It could have been better if it has a choir on the background but I did not have enough budget to fulfill such dream. I recorded this around June 2007.

Around 2010, I passed this demo to Mr. Nolit Abanilla and he included this as part of the Indie Pinoy Valentine’s project for mobile downloads. 

As per checking, this song is still available at www.MyMusicStore.com.ph. 

I hope 2013 will be a good year not only for Filipino music but also all the aspects that we take care of in our lives. ‘Til here and looking forward to being super-active here.

Happy 2013!!!
