Proud to be a Filipino ... Our Kundiman songs are in parallel with other countries especially in its form of serenading and courting beloved Filipina Ladies 💖

Gyun clng na pannood at na pakingan ito ito.naalala c ang mother c na lging kinakanta ito.n mmiss cya.thank u.

I like the dark, velvety yet solid and penetrating voice you're projecting. One of a kind quality.

authentic Filipino songs that we must be proud of

i love my father for bringing us up on a lot music , most kundiman and a lot of classical songs.

Salamat sa nakaraan hinding hindi makakalimutan ang mga pinag daanan at pinang yarihan

Thanks for posting this video. Pete Avendano's voice, range & timbre make these songs very memorable. I heard these songs during a concert in Manila by Evelyn Mandac long time ago. The melody is very Filipino and touched my heart. I wish you can find a video of Ms. Mandac.

Im a teenager a 15 year old .. I don't know why but this made me cry as in really crying hard

wow ang ganda naman ng song na ito....fave ko ito nung maliit pa ako...kasi lagi kinakanta ng lola ko sa akin ito pag pinapatulog niya ako.....

Ang ganda manumit ng tao noon,malinis tignan....ngayon ang mga kabataang bebong halos kita na ang kaluluwa.

wow!! look at the golf course over there, naglalaro sila- Manila during golden years- ang ganda- and the songs are GREAT!!

Pete Avendano, Thank you for uploading this kind of videos. It is amazing it is very clear. Love to see this kind of old cities in the Philippines, it highlight the quality of the Filipino Heritage.

Very poignant and nostalgic , let alone hauntingly beautiful !!! If I could only turn back time !!!

amazing voice ! superb composition...

Las canciones de este video podrian ser perfectamente romanzas de zarzuela española por sus estilos y calidad musical. Enhora buena y gracias.

mas nanaisin ko pa ang mamuhay noon kumpara sa kasalukuyan... hindi komplikado ang pamumuhay. walang trapik at malinis tingnan ang mga mamamayan.

Although we cant leave in yesteryears cant really feel expressing my lovd for yesteryears music, attires, costoms and traditions.

Amazing, a beautiful interpretation by a master

great singing, nostalgic video of time and place so long ago yet so wonderful even at these times. thanks.

Thanks sa nagpost nito ... Lagi ko kc itong kinakanta nung panahong nagpapatulog

ang galing naman, taga rito lng ako sa laht ng kuha sa fotos na mga lugar

Nakalulugod pakinggan at tignan ang itsura ng pinas noon.. 2019 na po ngyn

Sa tuwing maririnig ko ang awiting ito ay naalalako ang aking mahal na tatay. sapagkat kabuses niya, at tunay naman na siya ay dalita, Salamat sa Dios at napagtagumpayan namin ang tunay na kahirapan noong nasa Tondo pa kami.

filipino tenor alongside placido domingo!!! sana mayroon kagaya niya sa panahon nating ito.

LIFE EXISTS FOR THE LOVE OF MUSIC OR BEAUTIFUL THINGS. THANK YOU.

Thnk you so much for our song and music before.

I was looking for classic tagalog wedding songs and came across your video post. Anak Dalita is very beautiful and so is Pakiusap- but not really what i was looking for. Thank you for posting the video though...it brought back lots of memories of the Philippines for me and memories of my dad playing "pakiusap" on his guitar.. makes me smile.

Missing Tatay and Nanay now in Heaven, thank you sa pag share kahit napapa iyak ako sa lungkot at ala-ala ng masasayang araw ng buhay pa sila.

I love this song as much as I love the Videos you Put On It, .HAAYYYSSS, I WISH I COULD TRAVEL BACK, WHERE HOSPITALITY AND LOVE IS EVERYWHERE..., AMMA 90'S KIDDO BUT I LOVE WATCHING VIDEOS LIKE THIS, MAKING MYSELF PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO WHO HOLDS A DEGREE OF BEING A GOOD CITIZEN 😁 KEEP POSTING 😍 GODBLESS THY LIFE

Manila is very beautiful. Specially before the Japanese era.

Thanks for sharing. I was born in 1950 but it seems I know/heard these songs and they are just lovely kundimans.

Sarap talaga nang old songs para akong Dinodoyan sa labis na kagalakan naaaliw ako subra❤💘

only two requests. more!!! and more!!! this is the good stuff. ur the best pinoy tenor i've heard. ive been looking for kundiman songs for my mom. sayang i cant find ur cd anywhere.

I love this song so much. Does anyone have that version of Arrigo Pola the Italian tenor?

Thanks for sharing; those were the golden years when life was simple.

Galing ng kumanta! Bravo!

So great to go back in time this way. Thank you.

the tenor voice remind me of my dear friend Tony Mendoza of Imus, Cavite.

Mga sceneries na hindi na siguro magbabalik? Mga alaala na lamang. Nakalulungkot man, wala tayong magagawa. We just must go on.

Bravo! Pete Avendano!

my favorite filipino male singer. rest in peace with God.

Anak Dalita (Lamberto Avellana, 1956) "Before proceeding with the story, director Lamberto Avellana first allows his audience to immerse in the story's meticulously crafted setting which are the ruins of Manila Cathedral, bombed during the second World War and now temporary shelter to the several families displaced by the war and poverty. The ruins are at once an awesome and depressing sight. The remnants of the cathedral allude to a glorious past, yet the makeshift houses that dot the cathedral's steadfast walls are persistent reminders of the bleak present, where post-war crises continue to haunt the Philippines more than a decade after the second World War ended.While survival within the walls of the ruined cathedral is daunting, it is most certainly not joyless. The setting provides for Avellana stable grounds to push poverty's dichotomy (the unjust absence of resources and necessities, tempered by the arising virtues of camaraderie and integrity as forced upon by their economic state), which altogether repulses and charms Vic (Tony Santos, Sr.), the war hero who returns to Manila and is forced to live within the ruined walls of the cathedral and among the people who have temporarily resided therein. Anak Dalita begins with Cita (Rosa Rosal), a prostitute residing in one of the makeshift houses in the squatter colony. Avellana stages the drama and the love story with a subtle emphasis of his carefully set-up milieu of extensive poverty and its difficult virtues. With their impending eviction from the cathedral to make way for its reconstruction, Vic is pushed to exchange sculpting statues for meager earnings for a more lucrative job under Carlo (Jose De Cordova), Vic's former war bud who has repackaged himself into a shady yet wealthy businessman. With the affronts of post-war life's hardships and Vic's hopeless situation, honest living becomes impractical. Thus, his eventual leaning towards Carlo's shady proposition of laundering money to Hong Kong by hiding it inside the statue of Mother Mary he sculpted for the parish priest (Vic Silayan) seems understandable, and his subsequent turnaround, aided by the clever and good-intentioned machinations of Cita, is laudible. Avellana showcases an adeptness for visualizing kinetic tension, something he'll again showcase the following year in a duel between Santos and Silayan, as Muslim combatants in pre-colonial Mindanao, in Badjao. Avellana's pencant for mixing action and romance in a suitably-characterized settings that enlarges the consequences of the simple narrative is well-pronounced here. Anak Dalita remains to be the quintessential Avellana film." - Ogg's Movie Thoughts

this was also sang by Arrigo Pola (Italian tenor). The movie of the same title starred Tony Santos and Rosa Rosal.

god i love manila long time ago..life is so simple!!

Wow! ganda naman ng Manila noon, parang City sa Europe. napansin ko rin ang mga tao noon pormal na pormal naka coat and tie ang mga lalaki at naka Maria Clara pa ang mga kababaihan. Di tulad ngayon naka shorts lang pwede nang lumuwas he he he at nagkalat pa ang mga street children. Lastly di pa uso ang mga Japanese made cars, puro mga US made at may mga calesa pa na ang gandang pagmasdan Inabot ko pa ng konti ang calesa then 80's tricycle na ang hari.

napaka inam na awitin..

💚💙💖👍👍👍 Thanks 4 posting

Sino ang umawit nito? Napakahusay.Nanunuot sa buto ang ipinahihiwatig na damdamin ng awit'

Ganda ng pananamit noon.

Gusto ng gusto ko ang mga awiting kundiman parang nasa panahon ako .

very beautiful song!

beautiful...i wonder what it would have been like to walk around the streets during this time.

I love it so much..

“Inaalipusta mo ba ako? Dahil ba ako’y isang hamak na hostess lamang hindi mo na ako itinuring na isang tunay na kapatid? Bakit? Pinagpapawisan din ako, napupudpod din ang aking sapatos. Rosa Rosal in Anak-Dalita.” (Are you mocking me? Because I am a lowly bargirl you can’t treat me like a real sister? Why? I sweat too, the soles of my shoes are worn out too. Rosa Rosal in Lamberto Avellana’s Anak-Dalita.)

great rendition! more performances to come!

Superb!!!

@musiktenor please upload cd, i would like to experience her musical genius.ty

Ang galing!

Tama ka erehes,napanood ko ang anak dalita ni Rosa Rosal walang pinagbago sa mga pangyayari noon. Karamihan ng eksena ay sa Intramuros kinunan.

Beautiful! The purity and power of your voice combined with the clarity of your pronunciation makes you a great singer. May I know your name and do you have other You Tube recordings we can enjoy listening to? Thank you.

kilala ko heto kumanta nito si arrigo pola,naging amo ko ang asawa nia na si margarita pola,dito sa italy,

ganyan na pla ung maynila dati

mga ala alang Hindi na muling magbabalik sa ating panahon sa ngayon,ang henerasyong may galang sa bawat individual na tao ,ang lipunan natin sa ngayon ay lipunan ng mga BASTOS at walang GALANG sa bawat isa,kahit ang PANGULO ay hindi na ligtas sa paninira at pagbibintang ,naging SENADOR lang sobra na ang naging laki ng ulo,iyan ba ang nagtapos sa mataas na pag aaral ????? NAGTATANONG lang PO,TAX PAYER AKO kaya may KARAPATAN na MAGTANONG, silang sira na tayo sa buong MUNDO,mag ISIP na kayo na mga PARAAN upang muli tayong makabawi sa pananaw ng ibang BANSA,LUGMOK na tayo sa KAHIRAPAN ayaw pa tayong tumigil sa kasi siraan ,

Totoo pero bakit ang ibang malalaking syudad gaya ng London eh hindi maikukumpara ang luwag sa Maynila. Mas malaki nga ang area ng London PERO ang populasyon ng London eh proportion s laki ng area di katulad s Maynila sobra sobra ang ratio ng population to area...kasalanan rin kc ito ng mass media dhil syempre tulay sila ng komunikasyon... Mabilis kumalat ung uunlad ang isang tao pag pumunta ng Maynila o sa kabisera. Khit s probinsya gnun ang paniniwala. Mas maganda umano s kabisera kaya ang naaagrabyado eh ung kabisera ng probinsya... gnun nangyari s Maynila. Tami ngaun, no offence sa mga matatamaan, pero totoong nagpapasikip ang squatters. Khit ako maging squatter aaminin ko un kc nga squatter means illegally settlers. You shouldn't be even there in the first place if you're ILLEGAL kaya ibis n hindi sila bibilangin s census at imbis n matatayuan pa ng mas kapaki-pakinabang n infrastructure ung mga lugar n tinitirhan nila eh kabaliktaran ang nangyayari. Kpag halimbawa nlng may naglalakad s mababang tulay at biglang huminto pra tumingin mgugulat ung mga taong un may mkita silang tao s ilalim ng tulay na nakitra.

Hi MegaShaning ! Thanks for sharing Arrigo Polas story. I heard him singing Anak Dalita when i was young boy. It's only last year when I discovered his true identity, here on You/tube. Are you still in Modena, I know Pilipinos made History there, The Madrigal Singers won two Grand Prix in Choral competition. I want to know more of Arrigo Polas song, have heard only two. I know that Arrigo spent more time in Japan than the philippines. Take care,

Excellent voice, lyrics and melody...

Sana maibalik ang dating pangalan ng Azcarraga na ginawa nilang C M Recto na ngayon...

Mabuti pa ang dayuhan o foreigner na si Arigo Pola (Italian) nagkaroon ng pagmamahal sa awiting Pilipino. Siya ang umawit nito.

Nawala na yata lahat ng kasarinlan natin at mga antiquities.Ang mga Pilipino ay walang pagpapahalaga dito maging sa kapaligiran at estado ng mga inprastruktura sa Pilipinas.Yung mga maaayos at magandang lugar sa Pilipinas ay tanging mayayaman lang ang nakakabili.Kaylan man ay hindi tayo magiging Switzerland,Singapore o Hawaii kung hindi magiging agenda ng gobierno ang Physical Planning & environment & population control.
