A new way to greet happy Birthday

Everyone of us have friends, family members who celebrate birthdays every year. If you are tired of saying or singing the old Happy Birthday song, I have an offer for you. I actually wrote an original Birthday song in Pilipino to replace the old yucky song that everyone sings.

As Filipinos, I feel we should have our own song especially for such an important occasion such as a birthday.

Next time you have to greet anyone, song this to them, or just send them the song below.

When you click on this it will not only play the song and you can go to the share button to copy the URL and send through social media.
Enjoy

Let’s interact more

My first ever entry in this blog was October of 2003. Yes, this blog is 18 years old. It’s been quite active mostly, except for some months when I would stop writing. The number of visitors in this blog were accidentally erased a few years back. It had reached almost 3 million already. Now it only shows a few hundred thousands since i reset the counter. If you want to engage with me more, and also listen to more of the music I have made and currently making, may I invite you to subscribe to the following sites?
