ANAK by Freddie Aguilar (cover by Acel Bisa)

I heard the news about Freddie Aguilar yesterday, and I found myself researching more about him. I watched a video of his interview with Mel Tiancho and also found a Dutch singer singing the song, Anak in Dutch language!

It's pretty amazing to think that the song he wrote as a personal reflection—about his own journey as a son and the love his parents showed him—not only led to reconciliation with his father but also became the very song that brought him international recognition. A song that crossed continents, was translated into 23 languages, and inspired over 100 versions.

This song is simple, yet incredibly powerful. Its message resonates deeply—perhaps because, in some way, we are all prodigals. And like the story, the Father patiently waits for us to wake up, come to our senses, repent, turn back to Him, and return home.

As a tribute, I felt inspired to create my own version of the song.
As a mom, it hits differently—it reaches a deeper part of my heart.

Thank you po, ka Freddie sa iyong musika! ikaw ang tunay na OPM Icon!

It's funny yet sad that death brings us to remember a person's great value when they are gone.
