Well, literally, "Indak" means to dance. The song is about someone who isn't sure whether to dance to her own tune (which she knows is right), or to dance to the tune of the one she loves (and just hope he doesn't step on her toes). Basically, it's about the inner conflict of whether to stay or go in a relationship. Very bittersweet. To be honest, the lyrics are very ambiguous...it could mean a lot of things to different people (which is why it's so beautiful).

[@kimikimi2194]

Exactly

[@SIRENHEAD05]

This is actually the "twin" song of Tayo Lang Ang May Alam by Peryodiko

I am Mexican-American and recently discovered Filipino music and although it’s sad that I missed out for so long, Up Dharma Down/UDD is my favorite. What a rare talent Armi is; I just can’t get over her voice-and she’s so pretty! Oo, Indak, and Tadhana are some of the best songs ever.

And here we are, 9 years after, still the same chills and feels towards this song. Sobrang linis ng pagkakagawa kahit ilang taon na ang lumipas, walang magbabago sa kagandahan ng kantang ito ❤

[@towerofdoomrecords]

For those who are wondering - drummer Ean Mayor wasn't able to join us for this session due to scheduling issues. Luckily, the band brought some synth and drum loops they had made for the song, so we were able to push through with the session. If you like the video, please share with your friends and continue supporting Filipino music, thanks!

[@jeraldquerimit3130]

Kung hindi ka sigurado sa nararamdaman mo at hindi ka pa handa, PLEASE, wag mo iparamdam towards the other person na mutual yung feelings nyo for each other. Kung di ka pa handa take time. Love is not a race. You'll end up hurting someone. Masakit umasa. Masakit yung akala mo meron, wala pala.

This song is very related to those people, who can't decide to who they will choose in the end,whether they will follow their heart or the will of their minds.It's like flowing in the rhythm of the music with your both feet in glance choosing for the right step.

kaka-break up lang namin ng gf ko halos 1 month na. Tae isa to sa mga kanta na ginawan ko ng playlist tas pinangalanan ko ng "break up songs". Advance din kase ako e kase ang saya saya ko sa kaniya. Ang taas ng confidence ko na hindi kami magbrebreak. Pero potang ina talaga pare. Nangako ako na pakikinggan ko lang tong kanta na to pag nag break kami, hindi ko naman inixpect na magkakatotoo. Hanggang ngayon nagsisisi pa rin ako. Ang sama kong tao

[@NoOne-uh4tx]

Kung hindi mo kayang suklian ang pagmamahal, wag mo syang kaawaan. It is better to feel bad about telling the truth and say you don’t love the person than taking her for granted thinking that you are giving her the favor by letting her love you. It will be devastating in the end and both of you will suffer.

Then suddenly umuwi yung manliligaw nya ng 2years from abroad. Lahat nag iba, daming gumugulo sa utak nya, i feel her ayaw nya ng choices. Pinastop nya ko for no fucking reasons.

[@daveisrael6645]

Tatakbo at gagalaw nagiisip kung dapat bang bumitaw. Armi's first lyrics hits different now. Because we all know that wala na ang UDD. 💔

[@hiiyannie]

I'm here after hearing the news but I still can't digest the information. 🥺 The band's music brought together a community of compassionate and virtuoso people. Their songs gave life to hundreds of individuals and even saved some from heartbreaks, tribulations, and loneliness -- like me. The melodies gave me solace during my darkest days. The lyrics spoke the words and emotions I could not utter and express. In short, UDD became a friend to me and made me feel the beauty of life despite the mundane feeling inside of me, as music truly brings color to one's soul, especially during monochromatic moments in life. The band's legacy will forever live on because UDD is without a doubt one of the pillars of OPM due to their impact to the community. I will treasure their songs forever and more. ❤ Now, it's going to be 'crying season' because of Armi's departure from the band, but we will 'never' stop supporting you, Armi, with your next ventures in life. Parang lamang isang "Anino" -- andito lang kami para sa tabi mo. And to the band, patuloy lamang po kayo "umindak" sa mundo ng musika. Padayon! 'Siguradong' andito lang din kami para sa inyo. Subalit, nagbabaka sakali pa rin ako na 'sana', kapag pinagpala ng 'tadhana', magkakaroon ng huling gig kahit online. 🥺 But nonetheless, for 17 great years, thank you, Armi! It was indeed a one good ride. We wish you the best in life. ❤
