[@noelmanarpiis8145]

This was the time when my church mates were contestants - Angel Panti, Mon del Rosario, May Bayot, and even Lani Misalucha... mga Latter-day Saints... Thanks so much Sir Danny Tan; you're a gem of the Philippine music industry.

[@coachfranc5351]

PLEASE BRING BACK METROPOP SONG FESTIVAL. DITO TALAGA AKO UNANG NANGARAP AT MAGPURSIGE NA MATUTONG MAGSULAT NG KANTA. Lagi dn akong may commemorative album every year hehehe kaya lang nawala na copy ko.

[@eejohn316]

Ang Metropop 1997 ay gabi ng Papuri. Dodgie, Soc and Jungee are all Papuri composers.

[@jetsetter82119]

Actually, this evening was meant for Papuri Music Ministry. Soc Villanueva, Dodjie Simon and Jungee Marcelo are all composers of Papuri songs.

[@ikotnimrandmrsb5739]

Parang same year po ata they were working on Papuri 16 if I am not mistaken

[@TIPIfication101]

Thank you very much sir Danny Tan!!! Matagal ko na itong hinahanap. Naalala ko nuon na tuwing Sunday evening pinapalabas ang Metropop... kaya puyat bago pumasok sa school...

[@TIPIfication101]

Hala, naiyak naman ako. You can feel the pride and the prestige of Metropop Song Festival. It is a TITLE and not a networks gimmick. Hope to see the 1996 to 2001 Metropop Song Festival in youtube for this generation to witness the greatness of OPM.

[@eugenerizaldo1935]

Watched the whole video.. Thank you so much Sir Danny Tan High school feels time flies haizt... This is nostalgic...

[@junrustia2000]

THANK YOU FOR SHARING GREAT SHOW AND MUSIC!

[@rolanddalloranjr.354]

Habang pinapanood ko mga songs feelin ko isa akong judge hehehe. Sarap manood habang walang iniisip na tuturuang mga bata sa school. Worth it! Thank you Sir Danny!

[@rolanddalloranjr.354]

Ang ganda!!! Pero mas close sa heart ko ang Metropop 1996.

[@hjon9119]

[@leomanalang8416]

dapat ibalik ito. puro kpop nlng alam ng mga kabataan ngyon. eto yung parang eurovision version ng pinas

[@misscaballero91]

true. May music song writting festivals pa rin hanggang ngayon sa katulad ng Himig Handog organized by ABSCBN and PhilPop by TV5. Sana may full version ng Metropop Song Festival 1996. Nagustuhan ko yung Shine by Imma Castro (may remake na ngayon kay Morrisette Amon after 25 years) and May Bagong Umaga Darating by Bayang Barrios.

[@jetsetter82119]

If I Could, Ako'y Maghihintay and Delikado Delicadeza ang favorite ko from Metropop 1997.

[@jherbieAlaskan]

Mr. Danny Tan I am always a fan of your music. Please upload the 1996 Metropop. Thank you. God bless🙏

[@jonbautista531]

The song "For Once In My Life" remained one of my favorite songs all these years. May Bayot was on fire during her performance, like, world class level. I even followed her during her stint in a music lounge years ago, because I became a fan.

[@noelmanarpiis8145]

Maganda yung kantang Song of the Wind... melody, lyrics... ang sarap patugtugin sa kotse habang naglalayag sa kahabaan ng highway...

[@eugenerizaldo1935]
