Songs with Flashflood of Feels

July 14, 2017 | Feels

Pagmasdan ang ulan, unti-unting pumapatak. Napakanta ka ba? I can’t blame you if you did. With this sarap-mag-soundtrip-weather, ‘matic na ‘yan. Pero beware ha. This jamming session with the rain is a dangerous combination. ‘Lam niyo kung bakit? Because it could release a surge of emotions that can create a flashflood feels. Believe me. Been there, still there.

That said, I’ve listed several OPM songs that deliver España-like flood damages, which can drown you in deep melancholy—from knee-deep to lagpas-tao levels.


1. Sa’yo – Silent Sanctuary

Baha Rating: Waist-deep

Nothing is as frustrating as having unanswered questions or not knowing what to do. Yung tipong papipliin mo sila kung yes or no, pero ang sagot “or”. Or yung hindi mo alam kung ano’ng isusulat sa to-do list mo. Friends, ito yun.

Trigger Line:

“Kailangan ba kitang iwasan sa t’wing lalapit may paalam.”

2. Huling Sayaw – Kamikazee

Baha Rating: Neck-deep

Sabi nga nila, “It takes two to tango.” But in this case, the two has to end the tango. Meron talagang mga bagay na kailangang tuldukan at bigyan ng ending. Period. Let’s just look on the bright side na may naghihintay naman na new beginning somewhere over the rainbow.

Trigger Lines:

“Hawakan mo aking kamay, bago tayo mag hiwalay. Lahat-lahat ibibigay.”

3. Kwarto – Sugarfree

Baha Rating: Impassable

It’s hard to forget but it’s not impossible. This song tells us that moving on starts by clearing out the cobwebs of your past and opening your doors to the present and future.

Trigger Lines:

“‘Di ko na kayang mabuhay sa kahapon.”

4. Paalam Kahapon – Ebe Dancel

Baha Rating: Lagpas-tao

Dito, it’s not only about saying goodbye to the past. It’s also welcoming the present and accepting its changes wholeheartedly. ‘Ika nga nila, acceptance is the key.

Trigger Lines:

“Tila utos ng mundong mabuhay akong pasulong, at ‘wag paurong. Patawarin mo ako kung unti-unti akong binago ng mundo.”

5. Walang Hanggan – Quest

Baha Rating: Kailangan ng life jacket

This one’s a heartbreaker. It’s about a hard fought love that ended way too soon because of the painful reality of life. We’ll never understand the how’s and why’s, so it’s best if we just accept it, no matter how difficult it may be. Awts.

Trigger Lines:

“’Wag ka munang tumalikod. Bumalik ka muna dito. Padampi kahit anino. Ayokong mag-isa dito.”
