Wait For Me 02:17
Wait For Me I'm nearing the start and closer to the end What's for tomorrow? What's for the weekend? Give yourself away Take the floor today Stop don't think Stare don't blink Wait for me, you got to wait for me

Sana 'Di Mo Ako Iniiwasan Nasagasaan pala kita 'Di nakita na andoon ka 'Di mo sinasagot ang telepono mo Sana wala ka lang sa inyo Sana 'di mo ako iniiwasan Natamaan pala kita 'Di nakita na andoon ka Parang napilitan ka lang sumama sa akin 'Di naman kita talaga inaangkin

I Feel For You I feel for you it's not yet over We know it's not easy to say At least you're feeling better We're all just waiting for you Let us know when your ready We'll visit when you get home Give me a call when you're finally Going out tonight After the day slips into night Flowers sleep, don't stop talking please Under the sky, lying on the sand Recurring dreams, painting with the clouds In the morning lost in the fields Statues speak greeting politely Down by the river, I see you there Under the sun, painting with the clouds I can feel you breath Darling don't let go I'm swimming out of the water

Iisa lang ang ating mundo Aaminin ko na ang layo mo Nanggaling ka ba sa kabilang dulo? Lahat ng ating laro gusto ko ikaw panalo Ito na ang panahon ng pagbabago Iisa lang ang ating mundo Kahit saan ka tumayo Magkadikit ang ating sahig at langit Iisa lang ang ating mundo Kahit saan ka tumayo Naghalo ang hangin at bituin Nasa isip ko na magkaiba tayo Nasa puso ko na ang ugali mo Kaya kunin mo na ang lahat ng nais mo Sayo na ang buo, ang buong daigdig

about

Originally entitled as "Lost Tapes" because at first I was planning to release my other 4-track songs that were not included in "98-05" or any of my early E.P.s. While compiling the selection, I very much enjoyed re-recording and re-imagining the unreleased tracks. It was like jamming with my younger self. I reviewed the chord progressions of the original tracks, made new beats, solos, and updated a lot of lyrics. I also wanted to go back to just a single drum machine, acoustic guitar, lead guitar, with additional toys format. The only original 4-track recording here is "Beat Matsing". After finishing a few, I knew I couldn't call it "Lost Tapes" anymore. "Spotlight Effect" on the internet means, "The phenomenon in which people tend to believe they are noticed more than they really are." (Wikipedia) It's a feeling I face a lot of times with zero confidence. I know It's all in the mind and seems like a nice title. So, here it is, "The Spotlight Effect" E.P. Enjoy!
