Feel Pop

FEEL POP
-ryandgreat

the feels! and the pop! a lot of opm songs, now and then are songs about love! and some these love songs came from songwriting competitions

there's metropop song festival way back late 90's
one of the popular songs that i can recall "mabuti pa sila" of gary granda

and then the revived himig handog that originated early 2000 until 2003
with hit songs "kung ako na lang sana" and "this guy's in love with you pare"

and with the invasion of mtv, channel v, myx and asianovela to the local music, all of these opm songwriting competitions were diminished

at the backstage with my idol Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano

and then recently, through the initiative of businessman manny v. pangilinan

and backed by his companies pldt, smart, meralco, maynnilad and tv5, the opm song competition breathe new life

the philpop! or the philippine popular music festival that's spearheaded by no less maestro ryan cayabyab

it's an annual songwriting competition to amateur and professional songwriters since 2012,

that offers cash, trophies as prizes and more importantly a recording for the compilation of the song entries

philpop 2013, i think was the most successful to date

it's remarkable that had most of the song entries in the radio and myx chart last year!

and it's also interpreted by the most sought-after singers of this generation!

songs that we are all familiar that came from last year's competition are dati, kung ako na lang sana and araw, ulap, langit! that i often hear on radio!
