Filipino singers and musicians are known all over the world as one the best musical talents. It is said that you can hardly name a destination around the world where you could not find a Filipino singer or musician. However, in terms of songs, Filipinos have yet to produce an international hit along the likes of Macarena, Sukiyaki, Eres Tu, Volare, and other non-English songs that became huge hits in either side of the Atlantic.  Locally, there are countless huge hits that Filipino singers, composers, and musicians have produced and here are the ten most iconic Filipino songs of all time.

Anak

This is the most iconic Filipino song of all times as this is the song that can be considered as an international hit. Composed and performed by Freddie Aguilar, one of the most widely known Pinoy singers of all time, Anak was one of the entries of the first edition of then Metro Manila Pop Music Festival. It landed 6th place, according to sources but that did not deter the song from becoming one of the biggest hit songs ever. The popularity of this song spread in many places around the world and has several international versions including Italian, Japanese, Spanish, and English.  It also charted in several European musical charts.

Next June the musical La la land in Galician language will be performed by IES Taboada Chivite school. Do you feel like learning one of the most famous songs in the musical? (Another day of sun).

Sing along!!!!!!!!!

This is our version in Galician Language:

O SOL VOLTARÁ A BRILLAR

Lembro aquel día en que

o deixei nunha estación que

estaba rumbo a Santa Fe...

Que novos eramos

mais el era tan xentil..

Sabía que era un entre mil..

Eu lembro que...

Nas noites estivais

sentados nas butacas do cinema de verán..

Mundo en tecnicolor

feito de música e fulgor..

Chamábame ese resplandor...

Eu sentía atracción..

Cuns poucos cartos que atopei

paguei bus e cheguei..

Tolo/a estou, eu non o sei...

Xa se verá..

Talvez un día chegará

no que os recordos voltarán,

verá o meu rostro e lembrará

aqueles tempos..

Ascendendo

"pra" ó cumio chegar,

tocar os luceiros,

triunfar...

Se chega a decepción

do chan haise que erguer,

a luz retornará,

o sol voltará a brillar.

Escoito sen parar

o ritmo das baladas

que nunca esvaecerán,

sonidos que deixaron antes de chegarmos nós...

Renderse non é a nosa opción..

Non perdamos a ilusión...

E inda cando din que non

e cando os cartos poucos son,

música e micro e luz de neón

bastan "pra" min...

E un día a meta atanguerei

Serei a estrela que soñei

O astro que algún neno emulará, que gozo!

Ascendendo....
