About this Song
Tens of thousands of voices rose in unison across the SMDC Festival Grounds in the Philippines on December 22, 2022, the air thick with a collective recognition of a song that had anchored Philippine pop for nearly three decades, the very track that forms this 4K live recording of Pare Ko, pulled from the set of the landmark Huling El Bimbo Concert that brought generations of fans together to celebrate a body of work that redefined the local pop landscape from its first emergence in the early 1990s. What makes a live recording of a decades-old track feel as vital and immediate as the first time it aired on local radio, the first time it was spun on cassette players in bedrooms and across communities throughout the archipelago, is the weight of shared history that hangs between the group on stage and every person in the crowd, all of whom carry their own memories tied to the song that first appeared on their debut album, Ultraelectromagneticpop!
