As a follow-up post to the Higante and Wasak Waltz Lyrics posts, I am featuring another song from the In Love and War Album of Ely Buendia and Francis M. This one reminds me of the old lyrics of eheads that have some sort of double meaning and it usually gets them into trouble especially the conservatives (remember Alapaap and the “drug” issue?). Definitely a cool and fun song here is track 5: Dreamdate Lyrics
Dreamdate
(Ely Buendia and Diane Ventura)
Tuwing kasama ka isa lang ang gustong gawin sa iyo
Alam mo na ito kaya wag ka nang magpakipot jan
Sasama sama ka pero magiinarte ka naman
Please lang wag ka na mambitin
Ngayong katabi ka na
Wag ka nang umangal pa
Binayaran na lahat di ba dapat lang bigay mo na sarili sa akin
Akin ka Wag ka ng pumalag
Ako ang iyong dreamdate
Teka lang
Sandali lang
Wag kang padalos dalos
At ako’y nababastos
Respetuhin mo naman ako
Isa akong tao tulad mo
Pagmamahal ko ay libre
Di ako nabibili

The song was produced by Ely Buendia and Angee Rozul, and was recorded and mixed by Angee Rozul at Tracks Studio.
I am posting the lyrics of one of my favorite tracks from the In Love and War Album by Ely Buendia and Francis Magalona. This is track 8: Wasak Waltz and this song reminds me of the good old eheads days with its pace, melody and familiar lyrics. Goosebumps π
Wasak Waltz
Eto na naman
Panahon ng tag-ulan
Di maiiwasan sa buhay nino man
Tulad mo rin ako
Isang pulo sa dagat
Na walang hanggan
Naghahanap ng masisilungan
Sa dinami-dami ng lugar
Ay dito pa nagkita
Gaano nga ba katagal
Ako’y tumatanda na
Pagkakataong tulad nito
Di dapat pinapalampas
Sabay nating harapin
Ang pag-asa ng bukas
Itaas ang kamay
At iwagayway
Masarap mabuhay
Itaob na ang tagay
Saan ka man pumunta
Meron man o wala
Diyan nagsisimula
Ang wasak na pagsasamahan
Pagkakataong tulad nito
Di dapat pinapalampas
Sa sakit na dinadala
Isa lang ang ating lunas
Itaas ang kamay
At iwagayway
Masarap mabuhay
Itaob na ang tagay
Saan ka man pumunta
Meron man o wala
Diyan nagsisimula
Ang wasak na pagsasamahan

Update 2010.10.01
I have posted the official Wasak Waltz Full Music Video on my Wasak Waltz Video post.
Today is March 7, 2010, exactly a year after the very successful Eraserheads Concert 2009 event. I remember last year Ely, Raimund Buddy and Marcus gave us, the fans, a fantastic performance. We love you guys!!! Raven and still do not have the CD album for this gig, the last time Iβve checked the CD Store they said its not yet available (that was before Christmas).

After the TV premiere of Eheads Concert 2009 on GMA-7
But Iβm happy that I finally got my SuperProxy shirt early this year (I bought one as a Christmas gift for myself).
And speaking of Super Proxy yesterday was also Kikoβs 1 year death anniversary. We miss you Kiko! And as a tribute, I’m reposting this video below:
Update 2010.06.13
We finally got our In Love and War CD Album copy. Read my post on In Love and War Album.

Update 2009.10.07
Raven and I were inquiring/looking at different music stores for the In Love and War Album, but we were unsuccessful π I checked Ely’s twitter page today and he tweeted last Oct.4 about the delay
In Love and War was supposed to come out today but Ondoy had other plans. Expect the album later this month
I will keep this post updated with new developments on the release.
***
IN LOVE AND WAR This will the final title of the project of Ely Buendia and Francis Magalona and it will released on October 5, 2009. Ely Buendia announced this via his twitter account yesterday. Quoting my retwit
RT @elybuendia9000: Francis Magalona/Ely Buendia project final title: IN LOVE AND WAR. Release date: October 5, 2009 8:02 PM Sep 4th
Ely also mentioned it will feature guest performances from Pupil, Hilera and Hardware Syndrome. The project was initially labeled as the Sickos Project, and because of the early passing of the Master Rapper its completion was put on hold. I heard news report that Pia Magalona promised that this album will pushed through and Iβm happy that Ely finally announced it.
Iβve been longing for this album after the Eraserheads Concert 2009 so Iβm definitely grabbing a copy of this IN LOVE AND WAR album. (Which reminds me I havenβt got my Superproxy t-shirt yet, poor me).
I’ll post here as soon as I have copy π and maybe a review of it too.
I watched the Eraserheads Concert 2009 premiere on GMA-7 last night and realized its not like winning the Philippine Lotto
I’m happy to see the other details of the concert that I missed (the hello kitty guitar, etc.) but it seems GMA-7 did not include some of my favorite songs from the premiere π
Was watching GMA-7 this evening and was surprised to see that the Eraserheads Concert 2009 “The Final Set” will be shown tomorrow, April 5, 2009 on SNBO (Sunday Night Box Office) at 10:30PM.
So to those who missed the March 7, 2009 concert at the Mall of Asia, make sure you stay glued to GMA-7 tomorrow night.
13/15 π We’re so happy. This is like winning the Philippine Lotto
3. Ely’s Magasin spin (“Medyo panget ka pa noon, hanggang ngayon“)
4. Maling Akala outro spin (Konting kuskos, Ayus! referring to a detergent bar ad tagline)
5. Ely distributed the workload (of lead vocals), I think this is a good strategy so that he will not be stressed to much.
6. We love Marcus’ version of Wag mo ng Itanong! This is a winner version! Remind me to find a video and lyrics for this song (Wag mo nang itanong! Di ko rin sasasbihin sa yo (reggae(?))
7. Raymund did some hell of a great performance out there π (Slo Mo, Alkohol and Insomnya)
8. Fine Time and Wishing Wells. Back to Back! Wow! I have to kiss Raven twice :*
9. Pare Ko lyrics spin (menardconnect might be censored π
10. Kailan’s piano version (Solo Ely)
11. SuperProxy was dedicated to Francis “Kiko” Magalona
12. The band played part of Kaleidoscope World. Another tribute to Kiko
13. Last song is Ang Huling El Bimbo. Nice Fireworks and Confetti!!! I will try if I can post my one and only video shot in youtube
14. Ely poured some lighter fluid on a piano props and lighted it.
Its like some sort of a closure I guess
15. The concert supposedly ended. The people were already leaving the concert grounds and Raven and I were buying some drinks near the exit, but the band members came back on stage. They too were “Bitin”
16. They did “Three for the road” extra songs. Ligaya, Sembreak, and Toyang
17. I’m correct. Mcdonald’s is the exclusive provider of hamburgers in the concert grounds π
18. I guess the band is more relaxed this time compared to the first reunion concert.
17. Whenever the crowd will request for “Group Hug” Ely will retort “Kayo Muna”.

We will be going to Mall of Asia in a while. I know March 7 will be a Fine Fine Time, but yesterday’s news was really a sad one. I know the band will pay tribute to Kiko later.
Going back, what songs am I’m wishing and hoping to hear later?
Fine Time, Wishing Wells, Sembreak (repeat), SuperProxy (a tribute I guess), Magasin, Kamasupra (repeat), Ang Huling El Bimbo, Pare Ko, Alkohol, Easy ka lang, Maling Akala, Back2me, Spolarium, Overdrive, Poorman’s Grave.
Hehe, the list may be long already, and I’m not a spoiled brat, when I hear 1 or 2 of my wish list and I will be very (sticker) happy.
Its all over the net and the blogosphere now I guess. Francis M, the Master Rapper, Kiko, The Man from Manila… already left us. This was announced in noontime show Eat Bulaga today.
I agree with the song (listen at the rap of FM and EB)! There’s no substitute for the REAL.
SuperProxy 2k6
Sawa ka na ba sa mga hassle sa buhay mo
Ayaw mo na bang mag-isip para sa sarili
Tinatamad ka ng bumyahe
Ang gusto mo’y nakahiga na lang
Napapagod ka na ba sa kayayakap sa asawa mo
(refrain)
Ito ang kailangan mo
I-dial lang ang telepono
(chorus)
Hindi na dapat maghirap
Sa iisang iglap ang buhay ay sasarap
Wag nang mag-atubili kumuha ng
Superproxy
Ako ay kaibigan na lagi mong maasahan
Umulan man o umaraw ay nariyan kapag kailangan
Ito ay special offer sa mga taong katulad mo
Gamitin ang iyong bulsa para guminhawa
(refrain2)
Ako ang kailangan mo
Isaksak na ang modem nyo
(chorus)
Ako ang bahala sa ‘yo
Ang buhay mo ay buhay ko
(chorus)
Superproxy
(rap)
(Francis M)
Come and take a sip from the cup as the drink makes you think
Don’t blink ‘coz you’ll be taken out by the pen and ink
Superproxy, why don’t y’all just talk to me
My rhyme be stickin to ya head like epoxy
This is how it should be done, ‘coz this rhyme is identical to none
3 Stars and a sun in one sky so high, one-nine-nine-five until we die
We on a mission to surf and ride the waves all the way to cyberspace we gonna stay
We on a mission to surf and ride the waves all the way to cyberspace uhh
(Ely B)
And so it was without a fuss we kill the buzz
Surrounding this delusional, irrational thing we call massive entertainment
Time to return the favor kick out the jams with the freeman flavor
Take it from survivor, the search is over
I’ve found the best forget the rest
Erase it, replace it but never duplicate it
‘Coz institutions are boring there’s no substitute for the real thing
(all)
There’s no substitute for the REAL THING
There’s no substitute for the REAL
There’s no substitute for the REAL.
Wala kameng mahahanap na superproxy mo. Rest in peace Kiko! You will always live in our hearts and in our music.
Remember the Enervon tickets I mentioned in my Free Six Eraserheads Concert Info and Tips post. The organizers called me a few minutes ago and confirmed I’ve won a pair of bronze tickets. Nice π
To celebrate let me post one of my favorite eheads song:
Wishing Wells
by Eraserheads
(Chorus)
I wish I could go back to those fairy book tales
Forget the real world a while and seek the seas of the talking whales
A place called wishing wells and magic spells (2x)
Where everything starts out a once upon an time long long ago
And lives happily ever after… a ha ha… yeah yeah
I
I could go up hill and run with Jill
The Giant could smell I’m no Englishman
Cinderella danced with me at the ball
I told the Queen of Hearts about my plan
I travelled the wonderland with Alice
I met with Snow White in the woods
I flew with Peter Pan in Neverneverland
Picked some berries with Miss Red Riding Hood
(Repeat Chorus)
II
I could be an outlaw in the west
Save damsels in distress
You could sleep a hundred years
I will wake you up with a kiss
We’ll swim the seven seas
We can make love more than twice
Fly like dragons in the skies
We could hang around on trees
Buzz around like bees
We can make some honey,
We don’t need no money baby
Just turn your back, You’ll see jumpin’ jellybean sack
Just wait for me Jack I’ll be back, I’ll be back
(Repeat Chorus)
A place called wishing wells and magic spells (3x)
