Excuse my silliness 🫠 should have know IV meant 4 but my brain wasn’t working LOL!!!!!
This sound of opm bands have started in the 90. If you could take time out for this series you might want to check out mid 90's to early 2000's opm band and alternative music that really dominated the airwaves. The closest that I can think of is orange and lemons. Of course if you want to taste real original opm singers you might want to start with eraser heads, Side A, True colors, mymp, etc. For single female acts we have Nina, Barbie Armaldes, Kitchie Nadal and so many more. I hope you can unearth their under rated talent during their time.😊❤
You may also try Marcelito Pomoy.
Do more of Michael Pangilinan Pls.
His wishbus performance of Rainbow, Perfect, Lay me down, and Bakit ba ikaw is my Highly Recommend 💚
IV of Spade kind of off or is in hiatus, idk if there is beef but there are some issue before but idk what it is. for a moment they really rise up and became really popular and Thier song like Mundo became a hit and bcs of their style as a band. This band has a lot of opportunities after this song become popular and a hit! But sadly one of the member which is one of main vocalist left (Unique Salonga), And since Unique left, The band career did not really rise up, thou remaining three members went on as a trio, and tbh, the band kinda laylow- before announcing mid-2020 that they would go on an indefinite hiatus.
They were at the pick of their career that time. Hope for a comeback thou!
Lolz
became obsessed with Morissette over the pandemic years. she is something magical
Morissette is one of the best vocalists imo that I have heard in my lifetime. Her ability to sing almost any song and make it sound great. And u like many of the other greatest vocalists her musical talents to not stop there………total package
Alamat is known for a no skip discography group because of their amazing songs that they released up to now.I love their branding and they’re the first that comes to mind if you think of a group representing the filipino culture,languages and filipino instruments the most.Every time I watch their modernized traditional dances and outfits on their music video,I feel pride on every move that they make and realizing that we truly have a very beautiful and highly diverse culture.
Thanks for taking the time to react to Alamat!Hoping for more videos to come in the future😌
Thank you for your ALAMAT reaction! Hope you'll discover more of their songs! Their concept are more on Philippines culture and history. Love ALAMAT ❤ my fave ppop group
For me, Alamat is the heir to the ppop throne. Their discography is consistently good.
Morisette's range, control, long phrases in one breath, tone ... while freaking sitting down!? God knew what he was doing when he didn't give me even half her gift ... I'd be an intolerable diva and a menace. 😅
Queen Morissette is a heavenly gifted angel singing above the heavens. Her voice is super human 🥰😍🤩 Thanks so much Melanie for the love❤💛🧡love your reactions;)
I did the same thing with Morissette-rewind over and over! lol Let's get Ursula's spell and steal her voice cause I love it so much! lol
morisette is the first filipino artist thatz make wish bus famous why utube reactors makes amaze and an international sensation..you may check his performance in round festival in korea
Morissette blows me away, and she loves singing so much. Watch her sing "Fly Like a Bird", or her Bruno Mars medley -- she is having so much fun!
Moweinatics 🇨🇦present world Phoenix Morissette dbest vocalist, singer in the world of music 🔥thank you Melanie for reacting, Filipino artists on your channel 💯✌️
Morisette was doing runs in the whistle range 😮. And it was at the end of one long breath, too! (Almoat 14s I believe)
wide eyed, open jaw then misty eyes very normal reaction everytime someone reacts to Mori's performance. ALSO, right after the whistle she belted and did not take a breath for 18-20 seconds holding that high note. truly amazing
also knowing that Stell refused to quit during his early years in his career hits really different while listening to Salamin by The Juans
no matter how many times i listen to "akin ka nalang", morissette's crazy vocals still gets me everytime..
how do you even hate your own skin though? good thing, you overcome it.
yes, Adie is pronounced "AH-dee" ...
Mori is simply Queen. Considered by many to be the greatest singer of the generation. Pick any Mori's video and prepare to be amazed.
Morissettte is something else.. she's addicting
Morissette will be my ever fav. thanks for reaction and checking her out.❤❤❤
When ART touches us! You are falling into the Mori-wormhole......there you will find....awe....wonderment....and JOY!!!
🙈🙈🙈
Thanks for reacting to Morissette ❤ love lots ❤
ALAMAT are amazing, you should watch their wish bus performances
Stone cold covered by morissette in myx is one of the best live perf for me
I love that Mori smiles as she sings. Just to tease us how easy it is for her lol jk.
Hahaha she does smile when she sings. It’s probably a combination of feeling that emotion as well as needing her mouth placement to be a specific way when doing certain notes. Smiling when you sing also makes the song sound different. More sweet 🥰
Hi Melanie, Morissette “Gusto ko nang Bumitaw” on Wish Bus is another breathtaking song, thanks🙂
Alamat is a rising PPOP group. You may want to watch their new song Dagundong which is 🔥. They embody Filipino culture thru their style and music and even their name Alamat which is very Filipino. I’m an A’tin but I stan this group next to SB19 ❤ OPM is very underated internationally but deserves to be known and appreciated. If they can only try to listen and dive into our music, I’m sure they’ll be amazed too. This is the main goal of SB19 which they’re slowly achieving. 🇵🇭 Thank you for supporting OPM, I love your reaction vids esp with SB19 💙
Alamat is super diverse group they sing and rap in different filipino languages I think they have tried singing in 9 different languages before in one song because they used to be 9 member group but 3 other guys left. But they still sing in different languages maybe 6 or 8?
all of their MV is full of history about filipino culture and they are my 2nd fave Ppop group aside from SB19 Hope you can check some of their MV and Performances they are indeed Unique.
Wow! That’s really cool
@@melaniereacts ALAMAT is my 2nd favorite Ppop group, if SB19 is the King, ALAMAT is our Teacher. Pleae check out their songs, Maharani is one of my favorite songs of ALAMAT, please do a reaction to Maharani MV. Could you please also react to Stell's vlogs in Palawan? His Vestour vlog.
@melaniereacts Alamat is my second fave Ppop group.They are so good with Filipino heritage in their songs,love their tones and attires in their videos.Their songs make me proud as a Filipino.They have new LP, Dayang ang Dagundong are bangers
Hoping to see more ALAMAT mv reactions from you ✅
ALAMAT sings in different languages of the Philippines. they had a song that highlights more of their harmonies. And they can all rap. listen to their latest single "dagundong" from their latest album❤
Miss Morissette is 1 of the best singers in the Philippines 🥰 Philippines is abundant with talented people! 💯
No one of the best in the world.
I am 66 years old and live in Florida and love music especially women singers,and I have listened to a lot of them, but never have I listen to one that gives me chills like Morissette every time I listen to her, she has become my favorite singer and it started with this song over a year ago she is awesome.
Morissette is one of Stell's idols. She performed in the Round Festival twice , you gotta watch those and be ready to be amaze 😊
Oh!!! I definitely need to check those out 😍
@@melaniereactsIf I'm not mistaken, 3 in the SB19 group are fans of Morissette Amon. Sure Stell, he's his idol. He watches the video, it's on youtube, where he takes a selfie with her and immediately after jumps from happiness like a child. Morissette amon, she has a championship of her own, she can't participate with the others, she always wins. "There's Morissette!!!! So we lost right from the start." 😂
Morissette , the best vocalist of her generation🎼🎼🎙🎙
Hope you react more to ALAMAT- the Maharani MV, their wishbus performances and if you want you might wanna check out-they just released a new MV, it is "Dagundong" from their latest album ISAPUSO. We A'tin love them as well(we support PPOP) they are my second favorite next to SB19. I really love and appreciate their live vocals for we know that only few can sing better live aside from the MAHALIMA and also because they aim to highlight the beauty and diversity of Filipino culture that's why Alamat will always have a special place in our hearts. Thanks for reacting!❤️
cant wait for more of Morisette journey reaction!!!! ❤
Alamat have release a new album. I think you will love their Isapuso Album. Some of the songs are Dagundong, Dong-Dong-Ay, Manila Dreams, Dayang, Noli, Walang Hanggan, Day and Night, Multo and etc.
Finally Alamat. I love them too, like SB19. ❤
More morisette performance please...
Thanks Mel for reacting, our pride Morisette. Please react to her cover of Rise Up and Secret Love Song ❤️
❤️❤️
“Akin ka na lang” is more like literally translated as “Just be mine instead”..coz the song is about one-sided love and she’s asking to be loved instead…the song is more like pleading the other party to love her back thus they translated it as “please be mine”….weeeee..anyway, all the songs you’ve reacted for this video are my favorites..I love every single one..and I am sooo happy that you are thoroughly enjoying OPM..can’t get enough..love love it..❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for explaining 🥰 glad you’re enjoying it ❤️
Her song Naririnig Mo Ba is underrated imho. Difficult song, though. I suggest you react to it as well.
I strooongly recommend you check out Alamat's music videos!! They're amazing! 💯 Their concepts dig deep on Filipino culture, sometimes they sing in their respective dialects too ❤ "Lakambini" is actually a "Lakan"'s partner, Lakan being a leader.
Hi Ms.Melanie, Morissette will be performing in Sydney Australia on December 9,hope you could watch Her live,pls react to Her FLY LIKE A BIRD feat. Adonis Tabanda and Kiko Salazar,thank you for this RV❤❤❤🙏
More of Mori pleaseeeee
❤️
I guess you need to complete Morissette’s wish bus trifecta now by listening to her cover “Never Enough”. 😊 Another suggestion as you’ve just heard her iconic “Akin ka na lang”, you can get off the bus and check out her very recent, totally new treatment of this song on the Good Times by Underdog channel, with a live band. She will not disappoint. 😊
Philippines is really a musical country
She was invited to perform on the Asia Song Festival 2017 and 2018 in South Korea. That's where the Hanguk people started to take notice of her especially when she sang a Korean song. They were blown away. It's also the first time that they invited an artist back to back. She's supposed to on the 2019 edition but she already has another plans on the supposed date. The chinese are also starting to take notice of her. Before the Pandemic hit she's supposed to be invited to a Chinese singing contest where Jessie J and Dimash were a part of.
Araw araw by Ben&Ben always gets me no matter how many times I listen to it. It's just so beautifully written. It's about choosing the same person every day despite his/her imperfections and whatever you two go through. I look forward to playing this song during my wedding soon hahaha along with SB19's Liham.
Stop 😭😭😭😭 omg I love the meaning so much
Omg you're gonna have a wedding...i don't want a wedding since there's no divorce yet in the PH.
Thank you for reacting to ALAMAT! They are the Legends of PPOP, they hold the No-Skip Discography they have a Masterpiece songs and all are bop,.. You must check out more of their songs, they are all well-rounded group, a multilingual, multicultural, Multi-ethnic, group each one of them can play many instruments, all can sing, dance, rap, and they are good at acting too. They are the most diverse group here in Philippines because each one of them are from different Province and speak different languages.. They are one of the popular group here too just like SB19.
My Alamat songs recommendation for you to check out are; Dagundong, Walang Hanggan, ILY ILY, Kasmala, Maraharani, Aswang,.. Etc. And you can check out their Pasulong EP Album , and their new release IsaPuso LP Album too..
i recommend ALAMAT Wish Bus performance 😊 it's good
Which song?
@@melaniereacts Say You Love Me
ILY ILY for me, as many genres in one song as you could fit in 😅, talks about OFW children too, or if you want a cool summer song their DAY AND NIGHT is good too :)
KASMALA on wish bus too🤎
Morissette ❤❤❤
ALAMAT sing, raps and dances very well too, pls pls react to their other songs. I'm so happy you are enjoying Arthur Nery and Adie! Wohoo! Looking forward to more PPOP and OPM reaction videos!
Thanks Mel for reacting.🫶 You could tell Ken Morisette's song - "Akin ka na lang" and for wordplay just say "aKEN ka na lang". He'll know what it means. 😉😄
Morissette is my number 1 all time favorite female artist she can sing any genre..beautiful Melanie try to react Mori cover Mariah Carey medly at platinum concert.. stay sweet & safe❤❤ God bless🙏
Finally, you reacted to ALAMAT. Thank you so much! Maharani is a great start to dive into their flawless discography. It's their most popular song and just won Best R&B Recording.
For some info, ALAMAT is a Filipino sing-rap-dance group that combines both traditional and modern Philippine cultural elements with Western/global influences in the various facets of their music, including dance, fashion, and iconography.
From the name of their group, to the use of local languages in their lyrics and their heritage-filled aesthetics, Alamat promises to offer to audiences a proudly and uniquely Filipino experience that both entertains and boosts national pride.
The members of Alamat come from different parts of the country: Taneo from Kalinga, Mo from Zambales, Jao from Pampanga, R-Ji from Eastern Samar, Tomas from Albay, and Alas from Davao City. Hence, the lyrics of Alamat's songs tend to be multilingual, as the group also aims to normalize the use of regional languages in mainstream music.
Looking forward to more reactions about them. I swear, you will not be disappointed especially their vocals that slay different genres. 😄
More alamat heh😅
This!Up!
Pls,more Alamat❤
Upp! More ALAMAT reaction!
Up 🙏
lol yayayay! You found IV of Spades! (4 of ♠️) like the card. They were my gateway drug to OPM. That guitar solo is chefs kiss 🤌🏼
I love them 🥰 super cool vibe!!
helping Filipino artists to be known in the world,makes you so pretty in my eyes…😍
Aw thank you lol xxx
Next to SB19, Alamat's songs are a staple to my playlist. They sound really chill and vibe, they sound great live too!! I've watched them before ❤
sb19 name is prohibited by the court to use since last fan meet concert. They are now called Mahalima under court rule.
@@Samuel-vf9gg this is so sad, copyrights issue? any links for reference thx
@@kentcme th-cam.com/video/pp9KHz7JJLQ/w-d-xo.html
@@kentcmewala pong official statement but base on the post of their partner brands they are not using SB19 since trademark is under their prev. Comp. Until 2031 which SB19 is no longer part of after their contract ended instead they founded 1Z ent. their own company, so yeah its complicated rn
The BEST VOCALS in the world belongs to Queen MORISSETTE, the New Disney Princess.🙏🏻💯💖💖💖
ALAMAT's "Say you Love Me", "Gayuma" and "Ily Ily" and their New Song "Dagundong" is what i will recommend for you to check out next .. ALAMAT is 2nd to my Fav Ppop groups ..SB19 is my 1st.. of course ...😁😁😁😁
Day and Night of Alamat is alsooo a good one!! 🥺❤️
The Exceptional Morissette ❤❤❤
If you want a culture lesson about Philippines, follow Alamat. They were created for that reason, to highlight the culture, artistry and everything Filipino in many of their songs, dances and outfits.
IV Spades pronounced as 4 of Spades. Thank you for supporting our Filipino Artists! ❤❤❤
If you enjoy the whistle part on this performance. You might also want to check out her live performance of I wanna know what love is on MYX. The whistle part will definitely blow your mind.😊
Alamat has more r&b songs than most ppop group.
And we are far down the rabbit hole! Lets goo!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Morissette is my top favorite female artist. 🏆😍
I totally agree with you Melanie. Filipino singers needs a BIG stage you can't deny how talented and vocally outstanding 👏 👌 are Filipinos. Mostly Filipinos singers are powerhouse and have a versatile and raw tone. When it comes to style of music Filipinos are unique. ❤😊

Re alamat: they are currently the only multilingual sing dance rap boy group who sings in several genres mostly pop & rnb leaning - they sing in at least 7 local languages in most of their songs. They are quite known in the ppop community as the group having a no skip discography.
Btw, Maharani has been recently awarded as the best RnB track in the Philippines.
For a full feel of their abilities/range/genre, please see their ILY ILY wishbus performance. I could assure you that you'd be surprised.
They also recently released an LP called IsaPuso ^_^
Most filipina singers can do whistle note but morisette is different among all of them ☺️
Please do more reaction videos of ALAMAT,.. I'll bet you can't get out if you go down to their holes, they have the best Music and MVs.. If you want to know more about our culture, ALAMAT is a package group, Their fit and stlye are very unique,.. The literal unity in diversity they have songs that have many genres, check their Music Videos first and you can dive in into their Wish bus, Rappler performance.. Trivia; all of their songs incorporated cultural and history in our country even their clothing's, choreography, and have a multilingual Lyrics.. They have good vocals too one of PPOP that has Beautiful Harmonies... ✨🤎
Try QUEENDOM you will be amaze of their voices, you will be addicted to them, thanks for discovering FILIPINO ARTISTS, they are many gems here in the PHILIPPINES. GOD BLESS US ALL
Alamat music mv are always fire 🔥
this is why music is so magical. even tho we dont know what the lyrics is it can still affect us in some way. i felt emotional to listening to ben & ben even tho i only have half the attention cos i am working
IV of Spades is phenomenal! - They have really unique songs and sound. Too bad they don't do music together anymore. But they have individual songs too! (Which are really good as well!)
Ben&Ben - this band really took off and has been in the mainstream for quite some time. One of main reason is their sound, they're really a BAND. Their songs are really soulful too.
Morisette - has been a household name and has represented PH internationally. I mean, those belts are no joke. He was discovered in The Voice :)
Sing! Belt! Let go! I Bet you can do it Mel. You have a beautiful natural voice 🥰🐣🐤🐥
I’m a new subscriber. And I personally thank you for appreciating our Filippino artist. More subs to you 😊😊😊
Thank you so much 🥹
Morissette has so many great performances in all genres.
Nice reaction. You should check out Morissette's original "Mirror" Lyric video. Salim's lyrics almost sounded like a mashup of 2 of her songs "Mirror" and "Phoenix" Which were both off her EP that came out in 2021.
Thank you for reacting to Alamat, I hope you can check out their latest comeback MV entitled “DAGUNDONG” from their 1st LP “ISAPUSO”
Alamat is the first (and probably, the only) Filipino act that sings in several Filipino languages, since the group has members from different parts of Philippines. Everything about their branding (from their music, outfits, mv) are about Philippine culture, tradition, and history. Like their latest mv, DAGUNDONG for example, it’s a song about the 300+ years of Spaniards colonization in the Philippines. So I hope you can check more of them.
Alamat is my fav group next to Sb19.
PPop is under the umbrella of OPM (Original Pilipino Music). We consider all music made and produce by Pilipino are OPM, wether it is written in English, Filipino or any Filipino languages & dialects. We have a lot of sub-genres under OPM besides PPop.
Hi Mels, You can check:
G22 - Bang (wish bus)
Juan Karlos - Ere (Official Live Performance)
Juan Karlos with Paulo from Ben and Ben - Tapusin na natin to. (Live performance)
Alamat - Dagundong (Official MV)
24:53 this is the exact reason why we requested this song, just to see your reaction in this part 😂
For the translation of the title, sometimes it depends on the context. In this song, she is praying and pleading for someone to be hers, that's why 'Akin ka na lang' can also be understood as 'Please be mine' when translated to english. Thanks for the reaction Melanie!
Subscribed! This is it.. SB19's goal is for Filipino Music and Culture to be known and you're doing it.. Thank You Melanie 💙💠 please watch Sam Mangubat & BuDaKhel too 🙏
🥹❤️❤️❤️
I TURN TO YOU by Sam mangubat ft katrina and also Budakhel highly recommended

Hi Melanie, you trying to learn Filipino is so flattering.thabk you so much for taking interest in our culture.
You'll love OPM for sure
We all love our song interpretations to be so feelings forward combined by excellent vocals.
Here, if a singer is so good technically and does make you feel something to his/her singing...that will not sell as popular😉
Music is universal and i agree with you that to fully experience OPM is somehow dive in to our culture and language..
Thank you for your support fr. 🇵🇭 and God bless you always! 🤍
Pls more reaction of morissette amon like " naririnig mo ba and " gusto ko nang bumitaw".im waiting for this reaction..thnx loyal supporter here❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭😘😘😘iloveyou melanie😘
First Band was the four of Spades - its just that they use the Roman Numeral sign IV - those guys are such a vibe love it 🥰❤️
I hope you include 4th Impact in your third segment!! They are currently in Los Angeles, California and have just recieved their Entertainment Visa's and released their American debut single, Distorted!!! It is 100% FIRE!!!!
🤗 mel thank you for supporting OPM artist.more power and god blessing.thank u for rv.👍💞👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹
Should you ever go down the ballads/R&B genre… try BuDaKhel (Bugoy Drillon, Daryl Ong and Michael Pangilinan - they do lots of solo work too), Jason Dy, Erik Santos, Katerina Velarde, Sam Mangubat, and Jay R. Gigi de La Rama is fun too - she and her band used to do lots of YT live shows during the pandemic!
Will do 🥰
up
Iam here for Morissette. Please keep reaction for her. Thank you.
in Alamat the oldest is Tomas. He looks like the youngest. He's the in the front row in the middle with brown pants and dark coat. Check out their videos.
I honestly no nothing about opm music and have just been learning about it thru ur videos. But that Ben and Ben video literally brightened my day. The energy in that room was so beautiful and it made me tear up. It reminded me of how i felt when watching One Ok Rock "We Are" with all the students singing together. Just overwheming connection between people thru music and i think it is the opitime of the saying music is universal. U dont need to understand it to feel the message and energy
I recommend you to listen Ben&Ben 'LEAVES' it's a good song too
@@jungsky5469 thanks! I will check it out :)
Omg YESSSSS!!!! That is the exact feeling I got too. That OOR performance was like a spiritual awakening 😂 everyone in the room was connected in that moment. The energy would have been insane. I felt that same feeling worn the Ben&Ben performance. Such beauty ❤️
Not sure if someone already noted this, but you did mention an interest in the language. The "Akin ka nalang" being translated to "please be mine" isn't so much a word thing than it is a usage thing, specifically for "na lang/nalang". It's a word to invoke a second choice, if that makes sense. The nuance in the song title would be, well you're someone else's now, but please be mine instead.
"Akin nalang", directly translated would be "just mine", but the natural translation would be "Can I have it?"
"Akin nalang itong (this) kape (coffee)." would be "Can I have this coffee?" (It's yours or someone else's, but it's just sitting there so can I have it?)
"Bukas (tomorrow) nalang." would be "Can we do it tomorrow instead?"
"Lang" doesn't wholly mean "only" it can also mean "just" in a form of making a request (eg. Just help yourself, Just say yes, etc.). In this context "Akin ka na lang" literally translate to "Just be mine", therefore it can also mean "Please be mine" to make it softer and endearing or romantic or whatever you want to call it.
Ps.: anyone feel free to comment if you have other easier explanation. 😊
there is a new live version of the same song - Morissette Akin Ka Na Lang ft. Kiko Salazar and day one Live at The Loft
Thank you for appreciating our Filipino Music. OPM is diverse from solo artist, band , boy band even rappers. I may say Music is Filipino's soul.
