President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. reminisced about the past with music as he envisions Filipino talents for music and arts on his latest Youtube vlog.
The President answered various questions posted by some people on social media regarding the recent event of President Marcos for the troops of the AFP at the Palace grounds.
President Marcos said that Filipino artists do deserve the spotlight because of music which is one of the cornerstones of the culture in the Philippines.
Mr. Marcos answered questions about whether he will bring back the old program of his Father, the late President Ferdinand Edralin Marcos Sr. which was the “Concert at the Park.”
“It’s a successful and brilliant project really, that is why if this became trending and many were interested to watch, maybe we’ll bring it back at the Luneta,” President Marcos said.
President Marcos then brought back the memories that he had with his parents called by the social media user “Lola Meldy and Lolo Andie” while playing musical instruments during his childhood days.
Mr. Marcos said that his father’s favorite music was the ones sung by Nat King Cole (Nathaniel Adams Coles).
“If he hears the songs of Nat King Cole, he’ll get my mother andthey’ll dance with each other, that was their favorite.” the President said.
One question captured the heart of the President which was, “What was the theme song of him and First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos?”
“Oh, it’s so easy, ‘Moonlight in Vermont.’”
The vlog also showed the captured moments of the President and theFirst Lady on their 30th wedding anniversary wherein President Marcos asked the First Lady to remarry him.
The vlog ended with a short message from the President calling the Filipinos to sing together towards a brighter future and tomorrow.
“Music is the language that unites mankind, may it be from differentraces, it gives inspiration and image, capturing our hearts and being patriotic, giving colors to those who were in love or to what we are facing,” he said. Vince Lopez
“Again, let us love our culture and arts, let’s give praise to our Filipino talents, and let us all sing together towards a New Philippines,” President Marcos added.
