Tag: greatest OPM songs
Banal na Aso, Santong Kabayo — a Biblical significance of one of the most satirical Filipino song.
“Banal na Aso, Santong Kabayo” is a song by the Filipino folk-punk-alternative band Yano. The English translation of this song is Holy Dog, Saintly Horse. It is arguably one of the greatest Original Pilipino Music (OPM as we called it) songs of all time.
To testify its greatness: even though this song is 20 years ago when it was released, the song got recently covers from numerous artists — artists that are distinct in musical style — from the worldwide viral performance of the comedic yet talented Big Mouth at the show Pilipinas Got Talent, to female rocker Yeng Constantino, to the acclaimed performance of Shaira and Tanya at The Voice Philippines, and to the reggae rendition of Kokoi Baldo.
I can say all Filipinos have certain respect to this song, except those who are in various religious sects. They accused that this song was inspired from the devil. At the time it was a hit, they hurl all kinds of “insults” against this song, including blasphemy, and a devil’s subliminal message when “back masked” to desensitize the song’s meaning — but this kind of attacks had just perpetuated the song’s sense.
The song is brilliantly written to attack religious hypocrites — hypocrites that are “masked” as a God-fearing person. Hypocrites that preach the Lord’s teachings, but neglect to follow the teachings for themselves.
For the first verse: The narrator tells a story of a woman is praying with eyes closed in public (in a passenger jeep as the lyrics say.) And then, she commanded the jeep driver to stop the jeep so she can get dropped off at the convent. But the jeep driver differ and replied, “at the right unloading area only, or else I’ll be caught by the police.” Then the woman got mad to this and began cursing!
