About this Song
The archipelago of the Philippines has cultivated one of the most vibrant, far-reaching pop ecosystems in the world, a space where creators build on decades of cross-cultural exchange to shape work that resonates with audiences both within the country’s borders and far beyond them, and Eyes Are Closed sits within that rich, evolving landscape of Filipino pop. Pop as a genre is often mischaracterized as a monolith, a uniform set of sounds and sensibilities that travels across borders without changing to fit the contexts it lands in, but that could not be further from the truth of how pop operates in every region that claims it, particularly the Philippines, where local creators have long reworked the core building blocks of pop to align with their own creative priorities, cultural reference points, and understandings of what popular music can do.
