Politics and Popularity


Villar's new jingle


Manny Villar...has annoying amusing jingles/commercials. The first I heard was the "Akala mo [insert slang here], yun pala [insert negation here]". To be honest, I don't know what petiks and trapo mean. It just sounds funny to me. and I like funny. But we have to remember being funny doesn't erase poverty and corruption in the Philippines. Otherwise comedians would be running the country.

As if the "Akala Mo" song wasn't enough, Villar came up with another jinggle that always plays during commercial breaks (perhaps 3 times each break) emphasizing that because he was poor he can end the hardships of poor people. BULLSHT. No offence, but you have to bring something MORE to the table if you want me to believe you can make the Philippines better for all of us. Hmmm..maybe like an outstanding track record like Senator RICHARD "Dick" GORDON or an impressive educational background like Gibo. (I'm obviously on Gordon's side) XD


In case you're wondering, here's the lyrics to Manny Villar's jingle song:

Naging Mahirap

Nakaligo ka na ba sa dagat ng basura?
Nag-Pasko ka na ba sa gitna ng kalsada?
Yan ang tanong namin,
Tunay ka bang isa sa amin?

Nalaman mo na bang mapapag-aral ka nya?
Tutulungan tayo para magka-trabaho?
At kanyang plano'y magka-bahay tayo?

Si Villar ang tunay na mahirap.
si Villar ang tunay na may malasakit.
Si Villar ang may kakayahan
At gumawa ng sariling pangalan.

Si Manny Villar ang magtatapos
ng ating kahirapan.*

*well, good luck with that Manny!

Good night/morning everyone! Have a good night's rest. :)

xoxo, Ange. :)

WHOA! talk about effective advertising! :))

Hihi if he wins I can say I've shaken hands with the president 8D

Gibo's track record is (unfortunately) disappointing, so I'm with you for Gordon...even if he is called dick lol. He needs better advertising!!

PS. yay its fixed!

Janelle said...

Btw, didnt know he was an atenean! damn :))

FrancisP:> said...

Gibo's track record was ruined by his Ondoy failure; otherwise halos kapantay niya sana si gordon. but I'm for Noynoy. :)

Janelle said...

Haha that's quite a stretch. Even minus the maguindano mess, I don't think he's done anything like Gordon has to Subic. But he's 40+ and Dick is 60+ so hey.

FrancisP:> said...

well yeah fine its a stretch nga since he's not as proven, though he's practically the closest thing to a political prodigy. :))

Pandorangelle said...

Funny! You're right. Gordon needs better advertising. I have no idea why his nickname is "dick" when his real name is richard:))and i didn't know he was atenean! lol. that doesn't matter though. just remembering Subic makes me want to vote for him :)) ACCOMPLISHMENTS>POPULARITY

spread the word!!! (please, i want a better Philippines! hahahahaha)

FrancisP:> said...

noooo! :D

noynoy pa rin, then chiz escudero sa 2016! =))

Janelle said...

He is, and I'm back on Gibo camp :> Magnanakaw daw si Gordon e(according to a producer guy I was talking to kanina. he abuses film/theatre industry), HAHA. Gibo has more chances anyway. Ayoko lang manalo si Villar =))
