The classic Bahay Kubo song where the message clearly implies the joy and simplicity of Filipino folk life is in contrast with Banda Ni Kleggy’s latest single also entitled “Bahay Kubo” where the story has a different twist.
The song describes a man who looks back at his entire life with a heartbreaking end with his childhood sweetheart. Bahay Kubo is an epitome of the line “almost had it all”. It is about yearning for the love that almost happened…. a push and pull with fate, allowing himself to experience the love he wanted to give with his partner, then taking it back again until his dream to love his childhood lover is in shambles and is not happening ever again.
Bahay Kubo is written by Bern Hardt Cuevas and performed by Banda Ni Kleggy and produced Rye Sarmiento of 6cyclemind and Banda Ni Kleggy and released under Warner Music Philippines.
