Man from Boljoon, Cebu gives famous John Denver song a Bisaya twist By: Immae Lachica - 6 months ago CEBU CITY, Philippines- What do you do when you miss home? You reminisce and scan through old photos through your phone, right? But this Boljoon-native went the extra mile and made his own rendition of the famous John Denver song “Take me Home, Country Roads” to express how he misses going home to this southern town of Cebu. Arcel Villamor, who is 32 years old, used his talent in music to create a Bisaya version of the famous 1971 country song, which he entitled “Libaong.” Villamor, who is currently here in Cebu City, got a little help from his batchmate and friend, lawyer Jessrey Estella, with the words for “Libaong.” “It inspires us both, especially with the crisis we’re facing right now. We can’t go to Boljoon for a while because of the restriction from our government and also to protect our families there, we might transmit the virus to them,” he said. He recorded and uploaded the video on his Facebook account last Friday, September 5, 2020.
