Moonstar88 shows off funky lyric-writing, melodic musicality anew with ‘Itulog Mo Na ‘Yan’

Apr 28, 2017

How long do we always have to wait for releases from our favorite OPM rakistas? In the case of Moonstar88, currently headed by Maychelle Baay, making them one of the most notable and resilient female-fronted alternative rock bands, almost a year. But isn’t it worth every single minute of waiting?

It was early 2016 when their most previous “Sana Mali” was released and now that 2017 finally hit, the foursome is back at it with an uber-catchy, Moonstar88-signature track “Itulog Mo Na ‘Yan”. Describing this new song from the band as relatable is a blunt understatement. The light and fun melody of “Itulog Mo Na ‘Yan” is aptly complimented by funky words going like “Huwag mo naman sanang paglaruan ang damdamin kung sumpungin. Parang lumpia na hubad at binalot sa kanin na maasim.” And that’s only the chorus!

On your first listen this off-the-grill song put together by Maychelle, Buddy, Herbert and Bon will surely tickle those OPM eardrums and you’d be hooked so much that you won’t be able to sleep it off. Its humor is invaluable…and totally sells.

“Itulog Mo Na ‘Yan” is now up for streaming via Spotify and Apple Music, and also available for download via iTunes.
