Bakit - Imelda Papin - Guitar instrumental by Dave Monk

Of all the countries in the world, the country that watches my videos the most is the Philippines.
In fact I have more views from them than from the USA and the UK combined.
I find this amazing, and I am very grateful. Thank you very much.
So, as a big THANK YOU to all my Filipino listeners, I have recorded this lovely song called Bakit (Why) that was recorded by Imelda Papin in 1978, and became a big hit.
I hope you like it. Dave
Imelda A. Papin is a Filipino singer and one of the bigger names in the Philippine music industry. Dubbed the "Sentimental Songstress", Imelda Papin is responsible for songs such as "Bakit (Kung Liligaya Ka Sa Piling Ng Iba)" and "Isang Linggong Pag-ibig".
Papin recorded her first album containing the song "Bakit" which became a hit among local radio stations. She followed her success with more singles that topped the charts.
Papin went to Las Vegas and managed to revive her career. She became a regular performer in the city and became an instant celebrity. She became the first Filipino artist to host a three-hour telethon on Channel 18 in Los Angeles, California. Currently, she is hosting a television program on LA-18 called Imelda Papin in America. Her radio program is a two-hour program called the “Imelda Papin Voice of the Heart Radio Show” on KLAV 1230 AM (Talk of Las Vegas).

Hi Dave, I'm so happy that you popularized the Filipino music. Yah, that's true that many of us Filipino watched your video because we love much instrumental music to soothe our minds and feelings after the day of work. We make this mostly after the dinner at the balcony while lying down and seeing the moon and the stars as a way of remembering of what we have done from that day and from the past few days of our life. Thank you for the efforts of making this video become popular around the world.
