Palamig by the Eraserheads

I recently joing a band that's main goal is to jam over Eraserheads covers. We pooled the songs we liked to sing (one of my choices was my favorite Bato), as much as possible we didn't want to cover the most popular ones from the 1st three albums. Palamig took me by surprise.

I didn't appreciate the Eheads' latter albums, but this one was really great. The sound is very different from early Eheads and actually approximates Ely Buendia's and Raimund Marasigan's latter bands (Pupil and Sandwich respectively)
.

It's just really fun when you re-discover old music!


Wala na bang magagawa
Meron bang dapat sabihin
Di man lang natatawa
Di man lang tumingin sa akin

Meron nga bang dahilan?
Dapat ba itong malaman?

Naglalaro sa ulan
Nanginginig sa lakas ng hanging
Giniginaw ang itong balat
Nagbibigay init sa atin

Nung tayo'y Magkahiwalay
Unti-unting pinapatay

Sa lamig
Tuyo't tigang na ang aking bibig

Putulin ang mga paa
Itapon sa umaapoy na baga
Bawiin ang lahat ng bumabagabag
Sa isip na puno ng galit

Kelan nga ba araw?
Parusa ang bawat galaw

Sa lamig
Tuyo't tigang na ang aking

Kelan nga ba aaraw?
Parusa ang bawat galaw

Sa lamig
Tuyo't tigang na aking

Tuyo't tigang na ang aking bibig...
