Just this morning, my office mates were asking me if I tuned in to Magic 89.9 because Rico Blanco, the former mane man of Rivermaya had a radio launch at MO twister’s radio program. I find it quite a bummer because I am glued to RX all the time especially during my travel time. According to my officemates, Rico performed songs that are beyond compared. His songs according to them will leave you gasping in awe and amazement. Actually, I heard his single YUGTO once when they first played it in Magic. There were teasers about it, so I was really intrigued. I am actually rooting for the talent Rivermaya “had” before Bamboo and Rico left the band. True, Rivermaya is still on the scene, but it is quite evident that the loud mantra set by former vocalists Bamboo and Rico will always be outstanding beyond compare.
Anyways, Rico Blanco’s first solo album is produced by Warner Music with ten tracks amazingly recorded. To start off, here is his first single YUGTO with its lyrics and Youtube clip. Send in your shouts and let me know just how you find this very poetical song. Chills!
Yugto
Rico BlancoSa gitna ng kagubatan may ahas na hahalik
Tatawagin kang kaibigan na pinaka matalik
Pupulupot sa leeg mo’t sisipsip ng iyong dugo
Ipapako ka sa krus kapag ikaw ay natuyo
Sa gitna ng kaguluhan may kumukulong bulkan
Di ma pigil ang yabang at sakdal na kasakiman
Susubukang angkinin ang lahat ng hindi kanya
Kung kaya kang paikutin tiyak paiikutin ka
Ngunit hindi nila kayang baliin ang iyong loob
Ang pag-ibig na hawak mo’y hindi malulubog
Lumiyab ka….
Sa gitna ng kadiliman may buwitreng nagmamasid
May magbabato ng putik ngunit walang mayayanig
Iiyak ang mga batang nahulugan ng candy
Laging mga problema sa iba’y sinisisi
Sa gitna ng kagubatan may ahas na hahalik
Itinuring mong kaibigan na pinaka matalik
Leeg mo’y pupuluputan dugo mo’y sisipsipin
Kapag wala ka nang pakinabang ang ending mo’y sa bangin
Ngunit hindi nila kayang baliin ang iyong loob
Ang pag-ibig na hawak mo’y hindi malulubog
Lumiyab ka….
Tuwing hating gabi maririnig mo ang huni
Ng mga kaluluwang naliligaw
Lahat ng pera sa mundo hindi kayang gawing ginto
Ang huwad na tao..
Ang mga tinig palakas ng palakashanggang gumuho ang mga hadlang
Saksi ang langit sa lahat ng naganapSaksi ang langit sa ikalawang yugto …
Lumiyab ka….
