To be honest we don't need to go in any restos or pub just to unwind, because we usually drink in our home with friends/relatives. And also, every house here in Philippines have own karaoke/videoke.
Filipinos have a huge drinking culture as part of socialization and socializing comes with singing. Drinking, socializing, and singing comes hand in hand.
Most cultures do this, but the big difference is most people from richer countries go to bars to drink and socialize. For ordinary Pinoys like me, we prefer to have drinking session in the back yard, side yard, front of the house.
Can’t wait for PART 2! Inuman or drinking session with friends happen everywhere, usually at someone’s home. And likely with a karaoke. You’re right Waleska when you say they achieve this sound by replication. These are not people who take singing lessons. They have the ear for music and definitely the talent. It’s true the music industry in the Philippines is stiff because yes, most anyone can sing and sing good. So Filipinos are kind of hard to impress. That’s why you see people just walking around seemingly “not appreciating” the talent because they’re a dime a dozen. But yeah, it’s the land of AMAZING singers. Can’t sing to save my life but I’m proud to be a Filipino living in the US.
Its a Common thing here in the Philippines. if theres a Drinking Session theres also a singing. Even there is no Videoke or Karaoke if theres a Guitar or any kind of music instrument they are always want to sing. Even in a Mourn or in a Funeral they are singing from dusk till dawn, It doesnt matter if your voice are good or not atleast you are enjoying it. Mostly im a guitarist in our place if theres a mourn of funeral because theres a lot of people drinking and they always want to sing. 😁 Fact: Theres a lot of people requesting of songs to me as a guitarist in the Mourn. it feels they are in the Restobar or videoike bar.😅😆
inuman is drinking when friends gathered and there is something to drink then inuman will happen, that is the time for relaxation, family gathering during the weekend...or after work and friends wanted to go out to chill and drink...but every occasion there is inuman and every inuman singing is always part of it...
Well when it comes to after-work drinking session or unwinding, it depends on the geographical or regional customs. In rural or provincial areas normally, late afternoon to night after farm or hard labor, guys usually have their drinking sessions, either cheap brandy, rum or gin or ginebra (BTW, Philippines is the largest consumer of gin in the WORLD. Major gin brand (cheap) is Ginebra San Miguel). They drink with "pulutan" or side dish while singing with guitars or karaoke. For urban folks depending on the socio economic class and age group, middle class to upper class drink in bars either with bottles of beer or hard drinks. They drink and chat around or drink while watching live bands or videoke bars. For younger group, they go to clubs to hook up. But for urban mass market, guys usually "convene" outside on streets or friends' houses and drink the hell out while playing guitars or videoke. But one thing is certain, in those sessions either one of the guys is a choir or ex choir member, a band member, or simply a frustrated videoke or amateur singing contest veteran. But the pinnacle of it all is the usual town or neighborhood fiesta, where houses are open to visitors with food or drinks to offer. The Spanish blood in us. Free-spirited. That's why we are called the Latin of Asia.
"Sa Inuman" means Drinking Session which is the reason why you see people drinking on the group where the person singing is. Here in the Philippines, it is common that singing on karaoke is part of a drinking session. Joking aside, there are people here that sings better when they are filled with alcohol.
Im glad to here that Philippines change your perspective on how to learn singing . In fact, filipinoes learn how to sing by imitating artist and through that, we can learn different dinamics that can be useful in any type of singing. Most established singer's in the country are also coached by well establish singers which is pass through generations. Thanks for supporting our country as whole.
That's really true. The standards of calling someone a singer here in the Philippines is higher than any parts of the world. It's true. I'm not kidding. Even us , our family who knows how to sing, when we are watching a singing contest from other countries and see that the judges are really amazed by the performer , we would just say "yeah. He / she can sing." (Not all the time cause there's a lot of great singers around the globe) then talks about the technical aspects of that performance. The standards her when it comes to singing is just so high
It really started at school. We do have a National Anthem that have a high notes at the End, then there is "Ako ay Filipino" as second Hymn which is high as well. Then at last our school hymn which is a bit relax. But we do it everyday starting by 6:00 AM, which I think like a voice training.
My dad said he got better in singing because of his drinking 😂 I tried and I failed miserably 😆 You both should try this but don’t forget to drink moderately 😉 Thanks again guys. I always watch your videos! 😘😘😘😘😘
One thing i admire about you two guys is the fact that you are very honest with your reaction and not rude if ever you have seen something not good about the video. Thank you very much for appreciating Filipino talent... proud to be one 💌💌💌 more power to you two
These things most often happen at home though wherever there's space in or outside the house. Even when there's no occasion friends or family just like to gather, the adults will sit around a table and drink, while the karaoke is set up as well for anyone to sing
Lol here in the PH we have a Law with connection on how we love to sing on Karaoke at home! We can only use Karaoke machines up until 10pm. To avoid disturbance on the neighbors.
My Uncles can hit very high notes when they're drunk hahahaha trivia: almost every house here in the Philippines has karaoke machines. And sometimes it is played all together 😂
The second song is everything i own by the group Bread. In the Philippines those scenes are just normal. Some stores have that karaoke machine and whoever wants to sing just put some coin and choose their song and sing in public.
Waleska frankly i am a grandfather in my 60's.During the 60's-70's in the absence of karaoke /videoke most of us learn to play the guitar and accompany ourselves during such "inuman" sessions. We sing songs if groups lije Beatles, Dave Clark 5,Rolling Stobes, Beach Boys, Elvs Prwsley, Tom Jones, Cliff Richards, James Taylor Crosby Stills, Nash and Young.,etc.
Drinking after work is a common thing for Filipinos. We called it " After Shift". We called ourselves " Songers" . Hehehehe. We love to sing. Whether you are in tune or not in tune. Singing in the Philippines is part of our past time culture. Wherever you will go in our country, you will see people singing in karaoke or just hanging out, outside in their houses or in public and private places. To be honest, some Filipinos have their own karaoke machine for fun. Even in our home, we had a karaoke machine.
Singing is a Part of our daily chores!. We Filipinos sing whatever there is in our midst. Be it happiness, problems, sadness , even disasters, we cope up with anything that comes our way with a song!.
Don't you know guys that there's already a videoke curfew in the Philippines? starting 10pm karaoke is already probihited that's how often Filipino use karaoke to the point that Officials already created regulation to regulate the using of it
You're definitely Right Guys, Filipinos really talented, even here in South Korea, when they have a Singing competition, when the other contestant knows that theres a filipino whos joining te contest,they already confess that filipino is going to win.....i personally heard it from them...
How to make a low-budget concert in just 5 steps: Step1: Grab some Filipinos Step2: Grab some drinks (rum or brandy) Step3; Give them some karaoke machine Step4: wait for a few minutes Step5: BOOM you have low-budget but high quality CONCERT
when positively answers the question: "can you sing?" there will be a lot to expect. But some would even say, "no i can't" but just actually needs some coaxing ang heaving. By then the surprises come...
What we usually do in a Inuman Session or Drinking session... we buy cheaper 1liter of beer in a 6 pack case and pour the beer in a Pitcher and put ice like what you see there... this way, the drink gets evenly distributed and no one gets away with a pass of drink... this would go on until either youre all drunk, its already morning, or on sad occassions, you ran out of money buy drinks... 🙂 all that whilst chit chating and waiting for your turn to sing.... Parokya ni Edgar had Inuman Session put into an Album
Thank you for featuring upcoming and current Filipino artists in the Philippines. We have bunch of undiscovered talents waiting for exposure..just like this musically inclined family band the "Franz Rhythm" which is now getting viral in the internet...Their covers of Olivia Rodrigo's All I Want, Asin's Kawangis and "What's Up" by the 4 Non Blondes are just amazing..notwithstanding that the members of the band aside from the father are just teens with ages 9, 13 and 15...
Just to let you know, I am from Cebu City Philippines where Mori Amon came from. This group drinking and singing has been going on in the entire Philippines since I grew up in the 50's, 60's and 70's before Karaoke was invented, it was created by a Filipino who saw the great potential of marketing Karaoke. We have been singing with guitars which I do not really know who brought this musical instrument, probably from Spain. The Americans brought the Piano and it was a big hit in the Philippines. Our Family, now here in Omaha Nebraska still sing every time we gather together. The sad thing is, hardly anybody plays the Piano or Guitar anymore and the new generation are not interested.
We are so into the 80's songs. So many ballads to choose from. Perfect for any gathering, specially inuman (drinking sessions). Well, actually we are into any songs of any era.
Thank you for this. Good memories of Philippines. This is a usual scene that you will see in the streets of Phillipines. Will start weekend (as early as Friday afternoon) and can last up to crazy early morning. The more drinks they will have, the crazier the songs and its notes will go.
The man singing Lani Misalucha's "Bukas na lang kita Mamahalin" is my 2nd cousin Mark Dalagan. Yeah just chilling drinking smoking 🍺🍺. I would accept your bookings but the drinks on you 😂🍺🍺. Basta Bisaya gahi 💪
Sa Inuman somehow translates to 'Drinking Sessions'. There are karaoke machines for rent all over the Philippines and for middle class families, we usually have one at home. We find excuses to have drinking/singing sessions especially during fiestas, holidays, birthdays or even spontaneous drinking sprees. Filipinos love ballad songs from the 70's-90's when singers were true vocalists. And although we have music classes in schools, we mostly learn from imitating the styles of those singers.
Most filipinos have their own karaoke so friday and saturday expect to hear neighbors singing and filipinos love to drink beers with friends or families its our culture we have close family ties and we love to eat,drink,sing and dance together even kids love to sing and dance
Hi guys, regular working hours is 8am -5pm, 12-1pm break time. Employees does gathering usually after work. Break times are too short for us to be doing that since we enjoy it too much. But to freelancers, it could be from dust til dawn. And right Efra, other people don’t pay attention too much because it is “normal”. We would give more attention to those who can’t sing or trying hard. It is just a notion that if you grab the microphone, it means you must be good at least. 😂😅😅
Inuman is very common in every in the Philippines. Normally people gather to share stories, drink commonly bought alcoholic drinks like RedHorse Beer, Emperador Brandy, and Tanduay Rum (these drinks can give you overnight amnesia btw 😂), during inuman theres also karaoke. So when everybody's drunk, everyone's either a dancer, a singer or a slang english speaker who speaks gibberish. 🤣🤣🤣
Love your reaction hahaha I’m part of those 1 percent that claps behind those that sings 😂😂 I have 5 sisters and each of us has kids that can sing so good… I’m so happy that 3 of my kids can sing and yes thanks to karaoke and most my nieces sings as well… and yes singing is part of of our recreation and imbedded in the Philippine culture… I’ve been here in US for 22 years and I have 2 videoke machines lol 😂😂😂😂
Yeah its true that singing in Philippines is kind of normal. It doesn't matter if we're good or not but the satisfaction comes from the quality time we spent with family, relatives and friends.
Inuman is actually Drinking(wine) Session with friends or neighborhood. Usually we do this after a tiring day at work or maybe week ends for us to chill and ofcourse in every celebration we had that too🤗. The bonding ,and making friends from a friend of your friends that were invited in the inuman and its really nice
Exactly, "drinking hanging out" (inuman in tagalog means drinking) among friends, and often singing is DE RIGUEUR; rather common in the Philippines and remember no training whatsoever just sheer raw talent; singing that is...American-Filipino here on the West Coast of the USA.😎😎
Type of people in PH who sings: Singers - they make money through singing, most known have trainings only after they are known Songers - have good voices but don't join competitions but will sing with others just singing chilling Shingers - Shy Songers, can sing but shy. Only sing when they are alone (mostly on bathrooms) and it will take a damn hard time getting theem sing with audiences Tune Crashers - Out of tune songers but differently will sing come what may Others who dont sing ang the "Clappers"
To answer Efra yeah it’s typically when friends are gathering with families they would rent karaoke machine and they would sing all night now the president of the philippines put a curfew sing until 10 pm only and inuman means drinking.
"Inuman" (Drinking Session) usually happens during occasions such as birthday, xmas party, office party, fiestas, family reunions and starts after eating. If the party is done during lunchtime, inuman stretches after lunch only until midnight (if done at one's residence. The law prohibits loud noise late at night. But if done at a videoke bar, it can go on until dawn). Sometimes during birthdays, this videoke session goes for 2 days (the day before the birthday and on the birthday itself). Just the Filipino way of relaxing... Doesn't matter if you're in tune or out of tune... The purpose of singing in these occasions is just to have fun so everyone can belt their heart out and those listening tolerate even those not so pleasant singers :-)
This is the moment to chill and flush out all the stress by hanging out with friends and express through singing. Take note we have this line, All your hidden english vocabulary will suddenly comes out after you drink quiet enough
The second song title is "everything i own" by america. Singing usually happens during "inuman" or drinking session (it usually happen during birthdays, baptismal, weedings or any family gatherings or even after work friend neighbors gather, have a bit of drinking session or in videoke bars).
wow surprisingly we have somehow similarity in culture Sunday is the best singing session in our province. like my dad will prepare a good food and beer or wine then the friends will come to savor the food and bonding while singing until midnight.. love ur channel ur mom and dad must be proud of you..
Thanks for the video, guys. Top shelf, as usual. Listen, the Philippines is NOW OPEN for international travels as of 10 February. No quarantine required upon arrival either. Just your vax cert and a negative PCR before leaving Heathrow for you. Hope to see you here soon. Stay safe!
Inuman (drinking session) gives the most unexpected concert-ish feels. Every time there's a inuman with my friends, me and some of my friends sing and perform as we enjoy those precious moments. I remember I sang She's Gone by Steelheart because of being under the influence of alcohol and that's something that I couldn't do when I am on my normal state. Hahaha! I don't know how. 😂
The man who hand over the drink.. is called “tangero”... (tang-gero)..one drink is called “tagay”.. it goes around and around.. efrah is right.. usually after work, weekends, fiestas, weddings, birthdays... they are for free but in commercial spaces like bars.. there is a fee/song+drinks
This "INUMAN" or Drinking session happens in almost all celebrations (birthdays, christening, reunions, get togethers) when the meal (usually lunch or dinner) is finished and drinks are brought out (usually around 2pm). Drinking just goes on and on until everyone is knocked out by alcohol (can go as late as 2am). To keep the energy in these gatherings, videoke machine is always available for those who want to sing (whether or not they're good singers). People simply sing for fun. Aside from these gatherings, there are so many KARAOKE BARS where people go when they want to enjoy because singing is perceived as a way of having fun, relaxing and de-stressing. Where many cultures dance away their mood, we Filipinos sing away our mood.
The Philippines is currently the social media capital of the world with 89 million active social media users. As of January this year, according to the Global Social Media Use Ranking, the Philippines ranked 6th in Facebook, 10th in TH-cam, 11th in Twitter and 18th in Instagram.Oct 7, 2021
Filipinos don't need to go to a pub to drink and have a beer. We can just buy our drinks and go home with our friends, we have our own Videoke on our homes. Haha
"Inuman", from the word"inom", which means drink (the act of drinking). But "Inuman" means a drinking session. A lot of drinking sessions come with a lot of videoke singing (karaoke for you).
to the question about where and when do these things happen - first off inuman means a drinking session. the where - KTV bars are to me entirely different from restaurant or pubs or places that serves home cooked food and alcohol (we just call those eateries, locally Karenderya). Basically you go to KTV bars to sing, these places serves food and alcohol to enhance the experience, you're there to have fun with friends, chill out, but you're there to first and foremost - sing. there are lots of restaurants that have live music and some places where costumers can jam with the hired artists on stage - basically they ask the audience if there's anyone who like to sing on stage and to come up and do so, feel free. As to the when, yes we have the 12pm to 1pm break and we also call that siesta time - spanish influence but we do not do karaoke during that time - most people eat and watch tv or surf the net, there are those who sleep, maybe listen to music. we have these singing and drinking hangouts after work during the weekdays - generally after 5pm, i've seen people rig the audio set ups in offices or schools for a videoke session before going gome - but drinking there is a no no, unless the office is having a christmas party or something - but generally we do that in KTV places or at home with friends or family. during the weekends and applicable holidays - you can do that shit all day - maybe stop at 10pm, cause you know the neighborhood's gotta sleep
Fact: Singing Drunk, can sometimes enhances the throats abiility to widen Our Range in Singing and knowing Filipinos, Karaoke Nights is Life even at Home or almost Anywhere we Sing like a LOT.
especially if we are drunk already the good voice comes out, at first you will hear simple voices coming out but wait until that person is drunk and the belting is wow...
Hi Waleska & Efra, please react to Franz Rythm band. You will be amaze when you hear it. They are a family band consist of a father, 2 daughter and a son. Surely you will like them.
Karaoke in residential areas would only be allowed until 11pm in most part of the Philippines. After that, it's gonna be considered as public distubance.
To answer Efra's question - most of this happens at night time, except for holidays.. During Holidays this usually starts early and ends the next day😅 because of drinking...We don't need to gocto bars/restaurants we can gather in a friends house, or literally beside a street with a karaoke machine and of course either beer or hard drinks: fun fact: pre pandemic we drink in one glass, pass it around to everyone, we call it "tagay"😊
Funny thing about me being not into singing is I know a lot of songs as early as from the 60s its because of the singing culture here.. You can hear them blasting the kareoke.. music is popping anytime of the day upto 10 pm cause its the curfew..
Karaoke and inuman (drinking sessions) usually can start midafternoon and end at 4AM the next day...the reason a law came into being, outlawing such , calling these noisy sessions public disturbance
To answer efra concern , we can do karaoke usually until 10pm . but if still depends on the location. if it's kinda rural area untill mid morning they still do karaoke .
‘Inuman’ means dringking session/party. Filipinos, traditionally, are not used to public bar where they can unwind after a long day’s of work. So, alternatively, it happens usually at someone else’s place. Most of the time, it’s uneventful, but they do build up on momentum for it to be an enjoyable gathering.
The traditional time for Drinking and Karaoke here in PH starts Saturday night and it will end Sunday Midnight . and also for events like birthday ,Christmas etc.
Normal working hours in the Philippines will be 8am to 12nn lunch break then 1pm to 5pm..Drinking sessions on weekdays usually starts 8PM until very late at night depending on the place, coz some places prohibits loud sounds beyond 10pm..and on week ends usually starts in the afternoon until the next day, that of course would depend again to the place and your drinking capacity ...but then again " the more you drink, the more you sound good"
![BOWKYLION - วิงวอน (ex-change) [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/cLdnZWDaO-w/mqdefault.jpg)
To be honest we don't need to go in any restos or pub just to unwind, because we usually drink in our home with friends/relatives. And also, every house here in Philippines have own karaoke/videoke.
Wow she's honest
Yeah, every dvds we have in our home have karaoke with it😅 lol
yes that is true..every house here in the philippines had a videoke and everytime we love to sing we just open our videoke.
Say no more. Hahaha
Additional,...no videoke no problem a guitar and a table to tap is enough
Filipinos have a huge drinking culture as part of socialization and socializing comes with singing. Drinking, socializing, and singing comes hand in hand.
Most cultures do this, but the big difference is most people from richer countries go to bars to drink and socialize. For ordinary Pinoys like me, we prefer to have drinking session in the back yard, side yard, front of the house.
pleass add "Hard" in there

simply say a drinking party or a drinking session or a hang out..
It's just drinking session/party. No more, no less
Do church goers also drink? The guy with the NY hat his voice is very polished. Almost like he sings at church rather than a casual karaoke singer
Well when it comes to after-work drinking session or unwinding, it depends on the geographical or regional customs.

True.. As for my family, me and my daughter sings.. 😉
Yeah thats true everybody can sing grandpa,grandma aunt,uncles and mom and dad
And not to boast, none from my family from parents to sisters, cousins, uncles and aunts sing out of tune. 🥰
100% true...

Lol here in the PH we have a Law with connection on how we love to sing on Karaoke at home! We can only use Karaoke machines up until 10pm. To avoid disturbance on the neighbors.
Haha, actually the Filipinos can't be stopped from singing at any time, they will continue using the guitar and other instruments.😃
Hahahaha, that is true. If not, all Filipino will sing the whole night, until morning.
My Uncles can hit very high notes when they're drunk hahahaha
trivia: almost every house here in the Philippines has karaoke machines. And sometimes it is played all together 😂
And those who doesn't have karaoke machines, we rent videoke machines for 24 hrs sometimes up to 48 hrs when there's occassion. 😁
@@VeeGee1902 Yeah my aunt has 4 Karaoke machines for rents hehe.
The second song is everything i own by the group Bread. In the Philippines those scenes are just normal. Some stores have that karaoke machine and whoever wants to sing just put some coin and choose their song and sing in public.

Our Family, now here in Omaha Nebraska still sing every time we gather together. The sad thing is, hardly anybody plays the Piano or Guitar anymore and the new generation are not interested.
We are so into the 80's songs. So many ballads to choose from. Perfect for any gathering, specially inuman (drinking sessions). Well, actually we are into any songs of any era.
Thank you for this. Good memories of Philippines.
This is a usual scene that you will see in the streets of Phillipines. Will start weekend (as early as Friday afternoon) and can last up to crazy early morning. The more drinks they will have, the crazier the songs and its notes will go.
The man singing Lani Misalucha's "Bukas na lang kita Mamahalin" is my 2nd cousin Mark Dalagan. Yeah just chilling drinking smoking 🍺🍺. I would accept your bookings but the drinks on you 😂🍺🍺. Basta Bisaya gahi 💪
Sa Inuman somehow translates to 'Drinking Sessions'. There are karaoke machines for rent all over the Philippines and for middle class families, we usually have one at home. We find excuses to have drinking/singing sessions especially during fiestas, holidays, birthdays or even spontaneous drinking sprees.
Filipinos love ballad songs from the 70's-90's when singers were true vocalists. And although we have music classes in schools, we mostly learn from imitating the styles of those singers.
Please react next to martin nievera and gary v singing "kahit isang saglit" impromptu performace.

You guys almost right with your comments, co'z Filipino's really love to sing any places!!!
Most filipinos have their own karaoke so friday and saturday expect to hear neighbors singing and filipinos love to drink beers with friends or families its our culture we have close family ties and we love to eat,drink,sing and dance together even kids love to sing and dance
Who said we dont have Vocal Schools? It's everywhere, you just need a set of friends, a karaoke and lots of beer... Tada!!! Vocal School
This is normal in the Philippines sing karaoke🎶🎶 in everywhere... Thank you We love u both guys🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Hi guys, regular working hours is 8am -5pm, 12-1pm break time. Employees does gathering usually after work. Break times are too short for us to be doing that since we enjoy it too much. But to freelancers, it could be from dust til dawn. And right Efra, other people don’t pay attention too much because it is “normal”. We would give more attention to those who can’t sing or trying hard. It is just a notion that if you grab the microphone, it means you must be good at least. 😂😅😅
Not all Filipinos can sing that well.
But for sure, most of us can carry a tune.
Singer/singers and a guitar player is a must during inuman. 😁
Singing is natural to filipinos, even on early age our folks were singing while doing farming or planting rice
Inuman is very common in every in the Philippines. Normally people gather to share stories, drink commonly bought alcoholic drinks like RedHorse Beer, Emperador Brandy, and Tanduay Rum (these drinks can give you overnight amnesia btw 😂), during inuman theres also karaoke. So when everybody's drunk, everyone's either a dancer, a singer or a slang english speaker who speaks gibberish. 🤣🤣🤣
Love your reaction hahaha I’m part of those 1 percent that claps behind those that sings 😂😂 I have 5 sisters and each of us has kids that can sing so good… I’m so happy that 3 of my kids can sing and yes thanks to karaoke and most my nieces sings as well… and yes singing is part of of our recreation and imbedded in the Philippine culture… I’ve been here in US for 22 years and I have 2 videoke machines lol 😂😂😂😂
Yeah its true that singing in Philippines is kind of normal. It doesn't matter if we're good or not but the satisfaction comes from the quality time we spent with family, relatives and friends.
i remember requesting this video before & finally here it is.thanks to both of you..
Waiting TREASURE's comeback reaction love you

Inuman is actually Drinking(wine) Session with friends or neighborhood. Usually we do this after a tiring day at work or maybe week ends for us to chill and ofcourse in every celebration we had that too🤗. The bonding ,and making friends from a friend of your friends that were invited in the inuman and its really nice
Exactly, "drinking hanging out" (inuman in tagalog means drinking) among friends, and often singing is DE RIGUEUR; rather common in the Philippines and remember no training whatsoever just sheer raw talent; singing that is...American-Filipino here on the West Coast of the USA.😎😎
Type of people in PH who sings:
Singers - they make money through singing, most known have trainings only after they are known
Songers - have good voices but don't join competitions but will sing with others just singing chilling
Shingers - Shy Songers, can sing but shy. Only sing when they are alone (mostly on bathrooms) and it will take a damn hard time getting theem sing with audiences
Tune Crashers - Out of tune songers but differently will sing come what may
Others who dont sing ang the "Clappers"
To answer Efra yeah it’s typically when friends are gathering with families they would rent karaoke machine and they would sing all night now the president of the philippines put a curfew sing until 10 pm only and inuman means drinking.
"Inuman" (Drinking Session) usually happens during occasions such as birthday, xmas party, office party, fiestas, family reunions and starts after eating. If the party is done during lunchtime, inuman stretches after lunch only until midnight (if done at one's residence. The law prohibits loud noise late at night. But if done at a videoke bar, it can go on until dawn). Sometimes during birthdays, this videoke session goes for 2 days (the day before the birthday and on the birthday itself). Just the Filipino way of relaxing... Doesn't matter if you're in tune or out of tune... The purpose of singing in these occasions is just to have fun so everyone can belt their heart out and those listening tolerate even those not so pleasant singers :-)
You're soo sooo pretty waleska!!!
This is the moment to chill and flush out all the stress by hanging out with friends and express through singing. Take note we have this line, All your hidden english vocabulary will suddenly comes out after you drink quiet enough
The second song title is "everything i own" by america. Singing usually happens during "inuman" or drinking session (it usually happen during birthdays, baptismal, weedings or any family gatherings or even after work friend neighbors gather, have a bit of drinking session or in videoke bars).
wow surprisingly we have somehow similarity in culture Sunday is the best singing session in our province. like my dad will prepare a good food and beer or wine then the friends will come to savor the food and bonding while singing until midnight..
love ur channel ur mom and dad must be proud of you..
Thanks for the video, guys. Top shelf, as usual. Listen, the Philippines is NOW OPEN for international travels as of 10 February. No quarantine required upon arrival either. Just your vax cert and a negative PCR before leaving Heathrow for you. Hope to see you here soon. Stay safe!
Inuman (drinking session) gives the most unexpected concert-ish feels. Every time there's a inuman with my friends, me and some of my friends sing and perform as we enjoy those precious moments. I remember I sang She's Gone by Steelheart because of being under the influence of alcohol and that's something that I couldn't do when I am on my normal state. Hahaha! I don't know how. 😂
The man who hand over the drink.. is called “tangero”... (tang-gero)..one drink is called “tagay”.. it goes around and around.. efrah is right.. usually after work, weekends, fiestas, weddings, birthdays... they are for free but in commercial spaces like bars.. there is a fee/song+drinks
It is normal in the Philippines.. having a karaoke while drinking with friends, if there's a fiesta or any celebration..😊 i love Waleska's make up..😘
This "INUMAN" or Drinking session happens in almost all celebrations (birthdays, christening, reunions, get togethers) when the meal (usually lunch or dinner) is finished and drinks are brought out (usually around 2pm). Drinking just goes on and on until everyone is knocked out by alcohol (can go as late as 2am). To keep the energy in these gatherings, videoke machine is always available for those who want to sing (whether or not they're good singers). People simply sing for fun.
Aside from these gatherings, there are so many KARAOKE BARS where people go when they want to enjoy because singing is perceived as a way of having fun, relaxing and de-stressing. Where many cultures dance away their mood, we Filipinos sing away our mood.
The Philippines is currently the social media capital of the world with 89 million active social media users. As of January this year, according to the Global Social Media Use Ranking, the Philippines ranked 6th in Facebook, 10th in TH-cam, 11th in Twitter and 18th in Instagram.Oct 7, 2021
Singing Filipinos discovered early on is inexpensive entertainment. It gives us joy.
Filipinos don't need to go to a pub to drink and have a beer. We can just buy our drinks and go home with our friends, we have our own Videoke on our homes. Haha
That or rent a karaoke machine for a day 🤣
"Inuman", from the word"inom", which means drink (the act of drinking). But "Inuman" means a drinking session. A lot of drinking sessions come with a lot of videoke singing (karaoke for you).
Waleska, you are so pretty here. The lip color fit perfectly to you.
pls. try to react to the franz rhytm, 500 miles or before i go. only simple family but... please...
Thats normal in PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭🇵🇭NO CAP
to the question about where and when do these things happen - first off inuman means a drinking session. the where - KTV bars are to me entirely different from restaurant or pubs or places that serves home cooked food and alcohol (we just call those eateries, locally Karenderya). Basically you go to KTV bars to sing, these places serves food and alcohol to enhance the experience, you're there to have fun with friends, chill out, but you're there to first and foremost - sing. there are lots of restaurants that have live music and some places where costumers can jam with the hired artists on stage - basically they ask the audience if there's anyone who like to sing on stage and to come up and do so, feel free. As to the when, yes we have the 12pm to 1pm break and we also call that siesta time - spanish influence but we do not do karaoke during that time - most people eat and watch tv or surf the net, there are those who sleep, maybe listen to music. we have these singing and drinking hangouts after work during the weekdays - generally after 5pm, i've seen people rig the audio set ups in offices or schools for a videoke session before going gome - but drinking there is a no no, unless the office is having a christmas party or something - but generally we do that in KTV places or at home with friends or family. during the weekends and applicable holidays - you can do that shit all day - maybe stop at 10pm, cause you know the neighborhood's gotta sleep
Hello guys thanks for always supporting our. Kabayans...and for the reactions..im one of ur fan here watching always in qatar...shout out plss
1st song is Exchange of Heart, the 2nd is Everything I Own by Bread(david gates)
What you described as “Tascas “, Philippines have exactly the same concept in their establishments. Drinks, Food, Live Music l.
Most of the times this “Inuman Sessions” start at 3pm onwards. Tipsy or not, we will surely sing if there’s a karaoke set up ready.
Fact: Singing Drunk, can sometimes enhances the throats abiility to widen Our Range in Singing and knowing Filipinos, Karaoke Nights is Life even at Home or almost Anywhere we Sing like a LOT.
especially if we are drunk already the good voice comes out, at first you will hear simple voices coming out but wait until that person is drunk and the belting is wow...
Hi Waleska and Efra, the song title is Exchange of Heart by David Slater. One of great songs back in 80s. Thanks and keep safe always! ❤💙💛
I just wanna say that Waleska, you're becoming even more beautiful. Also Effra is becoming more handsome. 💙
Yeah i noticed that too.....waleska are u inlove😁😁😁😍
loving your reactions all the way here in the Philippines...
Hi Waleska & Efra, please react to Franz Rythm band. You will be amaze when you hear it. They are a family band consist of a father, 2 daughter and a son. Surely you will like them.
Karaoke in residential areas would only be allowed until 11pm in most part of the Philippines. After that, it's gonna be considered as public distubance.
To answer Efra's question - most of this happens at night time, except for holidays.. During Holidays this usually starts early and ends the next day😅 because of drinking...We don't need to gocto bars/restaurants we can gather in a friends house, or literally beside a street with a karaoke machine and of course either beer or hard drinks: fun fact: pre pandemic we drink in one glass, pass it around to everyone, we call it "tagay"😊
This is very common, in every corner of the country, you are just lucky if the singers are great...
8:02 what he have in some restaurant is a live band also you can request a song or you can sing it along with the live band
I have been requesting this for so long. Finally!!!
1. Exchange of Hearts
2. Everything I Own by the Bread
More of Elaine Duran's Performances in Tawag ng Tanghalan
They are lucky to get viral & noticed... 😊
Actually this channel deserve million subscribers love watching u guys God bless
You can literally find a professional sounding singer in the streets and random places of Philippines.
Funny thing about me being not into singing is I know a lot of songs as early as from the 60s its because of the singing culture here.. You can hear them blasting the kareoke.. music is popping anytime of the day upto 10 pm cause its the curfew..
Karaoke and inuman (drinking sessions) usually can start midafternoon and end at 4AM the next day...the reason a law came into being, outlawing such , calling these noisy sessions public disturbance
To answer efra concern , we can do karaoke usually until 10pm . but if still depends on the location. if it's kinda rural area untill mid morning they still do karaoke .
Great reactions. Pls it would be wonderful if you both can do a cover of any pinoy song. Thnx.
‘Inuman’ means dringking session/party. Filipinos, traditionally, are not used to public bar where they can unwind after a long day’s of work. So, alternatively, it happens usually at someone else’s place. Most of the time, it’s uneventful, but they do build up on momentum for it to be an enjoyable gathering.
Your reaction makes me addicted to watch more and more, love u guys😍😍😘😘
The traditional time for Drinking and Karaoke here in PH starts Saturday night and it will end Sunday Midnight . and also for events like birthday ,Christmas etc.
Normal working hours in the Philippines will be 8am to 12nn lunch break then 1pm to 5pm..Drinking sessions on weekdays usually starts 8PM until very late at night depending on the place, coz some places prohibits loud sounds beyond 10pm..and on week ends usually starts in the afternoon until the next day, that of course would depend again to the place and your drinking capacity ...but then again " the more you drink, the more you sound good"
Waleska kinda looks like Ina Raymundo. both beautiful
