[@stellberryshortcake7999]

Yes po sobrang ganda.. kahit nga yung carton na napanood ko dati na story about bakunawa sobrang ganda na eh paano nalang kung gawan talaga sya ng movie na totoong tao talaga.. dami pa natin dapat matutunan about our culture. Kung hindi lang talaga nalapat sa kanta ni Felip yung Bakunawa baka hanggang ngayon yung alam lang ng karamihan is yubg history ni lapu2x, Rizal, Bonifacio and other heroes and yung history ng pananakop ng Hapon at Kastila lang yung alam nating lahat..

Felip is Ken of the Ppop group SB19. He is the main dancee but also has the deepest voice that can melt your heart. SB19 landed on the Billboard chart being the number 1 Top Social Media Artist for 7 weeks beating BTS. Check out the MVs. They are soooo good. Pls also check out Felip’s solo debut song "Palayo" and also SB19’s leader, Pablo’s solo debut, "La Luna". 💙❤️

[@happymelody440]

This is great. We learned so much from this. CHECK THIS: 1. Mr. LUIS Portelles Channel tackle BULAN Music Videos as someone who is knowledgeable in FILM and explain why those elements( like dragon eye, etc) are borh present in borh MV....Now 2. Mr. KIRBY ARAULLO, who is a HISTORIAN and very much knowledgeable on our Culrural Heritage tackle BULAN CONCEPT/theme which is based on Phil Mythology and explain the song's message. 3. Then in a comment SECTION from Mr. Luis Portelles reaction in BULAN being accused of PLAGIARISM, a FILIPINO who made reserch and SPOKE Plagiarism in INTERNATIONAL Conferences stated how plagiarism works in detail, and that it is not applicable in the case of BULAN. AND THE ACCUSER can be sued in court. 4. A Lawyer in a comment section fron another video comparng the sound of both songs also stated plagiarism is a serious matter and someone can not just accuse an artist hardwork without valid evidences and are not expert on that field. Giving CREDIT by an artist to someone is not as simple as you put it in writing. I think CREDIT is given by an artist if he uses the ART or WORK of an Artist itself or an ARTIST UNIQUE work, his own work, his design, his creation with his owm artistic, intelectual mind hehe and both parties agrees with payment involve ofcourse. This only shows that many profssionals are backing Felip. They want to protect not only Felip but our Country's Heritage our Culture, the PPop Music that is now making a big NOISE internationally. Those accusations maybe are deliberately malicious. Maybe with the intention of sabotaging PPOP in general so it will not continue to rise. OR THEY are just Ignorant of law and Culture and too passionate in supporting their idols in a negative way that they cant see that they are being eaten up, their whole being, their roots

[@nerinaopena7606]

In short po kung sino yung hitik sa bunga laging pinupukol.They the fans of Lay in general just cannot accept the fact that there is someone as Felip can be as equally or might be better than their idol😏

[@yresonirba87]

@@xijinpooh-f4c slaves even in precolonial ph wore gold. It was a symbol of status and belonging to a household. Slaves were more like people who were in debt and taken in for "payment" and do free labor until the debt owed is paid in full and will then be given the choice to go back to their family or continue to work for their current master and paid for services rendered. It's far from western slavery who based everything in skin color and removed basic human rights if you're of darker skin.

[@mayhu520]

In the Visayan creation, Libulan loves to wear silver and not red. Libulan died because his grandfather Kaptan accidentally killed him with lighting because his older brother Likalibutan tried to rebel against their grandparents when their parents Lidagat and Lihangin died. The God of Time, Kanlaon, gave life to Libulan again but they are divided into seven moons. Libulan is no longer alone, having new siblings. The moons are Haliya, Subang, Mayari, Libulan, Banilig, Banoor, and Bulan. Many people misunderstood that Libulan and Bulan are the same God, but Bulan is a younger incarceration of Libulan. They both have slender bodies, well mannered and gay. The seven moon dancers are the seven moon phases (the New Moon not included). Bulan is called "The Last Moon" not just because he is the only moon God left, but he is also the "Waning Cresent" which is the last phase of the moon. Haliya is the "Waxing Cresent", the second phase and of the moon after New Moon. While Haliya fighting Bakunawa, her blood spilled on the moon which causes the Blood Moon. In some versions, the Blood Moon is caused by Bakunawa's crimson tongue. The other moons died except Libulan and Bulan. Libulan (The Full Moon) was saved by the God of the Afterlife, Sidapa and they are now lovers (as I mentioned earlier, Libulan is gay). They lived together in Mt. Madjaas.

I must say you are successful in your endeavour and i salute you on that. Congrats Felip and Thank you sir Kirby for this video.. By the way im confuse, they say Bakunawa is a sea serpent?or is it really dragon? Thanks.💙💠

Bulan is Buwan din po

[@JLHMahal]

Very educational and revealing of the richness of our culture, as always 😍 Super Thanks Dear Kirby 😇 - Adi Hector

[@rimurutempest8873]

Thank you for this! I learned a lot! Felip and his brothers not only opening up the world of PPOP music but they also are reviving the dance community and now our pre-colonial culture! Indeed, their influence is getting massive! Rightful owners though for being an ambassador of NCAA and winning lots of awards for their music! New subscriber here!

[@jesserygenematuranguiralphilip]

Nice contents sir. Thank you for featuring Bulan of Felip this so educational we will learn more about our ancestors history, Excellent presentation with the complete details and colorful showcasing add positive vibes on how you explain the details well. MOre Power to your CHannel.!

[@ajumasol231]

Automatic click because of Felip, pero very informative po sir ng video nyo, may ganito pa lang channel, aabangan ko mga next videos nyo❤️

[@juliollly.baradas7149]

Philippine mythology is very interesting. Especially Visayan (Negros Occ./panay) myth and I'm trying to learn more about it. I hope you can release video about different myth pf the Philippines ❤️🥰

[@scablet]

yes! i have been remiss in my philippine mythology,..need na mag brush up! thank you for the boost Felip!!!! I remember reading about that Laguna copperplate....it was like a document na parang binili ng isang babae yung freedom ng isa niyang slave through gold...and they even referred to the place was 'Kingdom of Tondo' or something...not too sure anymore... even in Palayo...gender fluid yung vibe ni Ken... hala...Arimaonga is cute....accidentally nalunok ang buwan at araw dahil sa pagiging ligalig.. Tambanakano..anddami satin niyan mga talangka... Grabe yung fascination ng pre-colonial Filipinos sa moon... obssessed sila sa buwan hehehe... subscribed na ako hehe..

[@KirbyAraullo]

Salamat!!

[@sweetgurl1040]

Awwe. May sakit ka ba ngayon, Kirby? Get well, soon and thank you so much! And kinikilig ako para ke Felip dahil sa review mo.Thank you so much! SLMT!

[@xeng9774]

Kudus to sir kirby and my history teacher back in HS and University for pushing us to embrace our forgotten history. Yes, you can’t never speak about Bulan without Bakunawa in the narrative. To add, growing up in mindanao, I think they’re just familiar with color patterns of Maguindanaon and Maranao. The significance of gold and red has alot of meaning in the Indigenous clothing in my homeland. The Talaandig, Higa-onon in Bukidnon , Blaan & T’boli in South Cotabato, Teduray in Upi Magundanao and also, the Manobo in Davao wears red predominantly in their tapestry.

[@jolyn7664]

Sana magising na ang dep Ed para naman mainclude ang mga ito sa lessons sa school,, ang ganda ng myths natin pero wala tayong kaalam Alam,, thanks to felip for his initiative para makilala natin si bulan..

[@darajireh]

Wow! Amazing history we had. Salute to Felip #SB19_KEN. thanks to you mr Kirby

[@curlylaf143]

Profound! I'm really amazed with your passion in educating us and sharing your knowledge in your field of expertise. Honestly, I'm regretful that I didn't immerse myself in our rich history and culture earlier. This ignites the embers of patriotism and I'm grateful that you're doing more as a Culture Bearer. I really appreciate you, Sir Kirby! I'm so grateful for your huge support to our pop artists, especially Felip. BULAN is a masterpiece and he deserved being chosen to perform at the Grammy's digital series, Global Spin. He raised the Philippine flag so high as the first full-blooded Filipino artist to perform there, and as the NCCA Youth and Sentro Rizal Ambassador (together with the rest of our Mahalima). So proud of Felip and SB19! I hope that more young ones and young once will watch this and other interesting videos on your channel. More power!

[@victorlantin6067]

Thank you and Dakal na Salamat sir Kirby. I cried to feel the passion of bridging learning to our youth today. May the fight to bring our culture to the youth be stronger with the vision and passion of these groups. It makes me prouder being Pilipino Educator of Culture and Arts. Agyamnnak Sir Kirby

[@lifelover6674]

Oh, wow! Di ako nag eexpect ng pa shout out, but thank you! 🙏 so legit pala talaga yung twitter mo, nag dalawang isip pa ko nun, Thank you ha.. And yes, I am a subscriber di ko maalala kung anong yr. noong panahong tambay pa ko, at pinapanood ko mga vids mo. And SLMT for reacting to this. And yes, we are grateful na ganto ang ginagawa ng mga kabataan ngayon. Matagal ko na tong pangarap na mavisualize yung epics natin or mythologies. Sobrang gaganda at makukulay..

[@manlapaslester]

SB19 x Sir Kirby = A geeeeem. This is something I wish for. Sir Kirby in depth explanation of Felip's (Ken) Bulan is powerful, I just hope he'll be able to provide more of this to other MVs of SB19 or to their future endeavors. Uwu

[@nadiascarlette6955]

I just find it beautiful how our pre-colonial ancestors see gander as fluid and queerness is something that we should be proud of and celebrated. Unfortunately, a lot of people today have prejudices against the LGBTQ+ community. It just saddens me that people are bullied, mocked upon and discriminated for being who they are. I know someone who left their home because their parents did not accept them for who they are. I hope that we can all look back from our past and learn from our ancestors on how they view gender and sexuality, maybe then, no one will ever be ashamed of who they are Also I want to thank you for the videos you make as it inspires me to learn more about our culture and history

[@ainadatup]

[@mariel98210]

Your video is worth sharing, sir. Thank you for expounding our knowledge about the Philippine mythology about the moon and the other symbolism in the music video of Bulan. I'm sure this is also what Felip aimed for when he wrote his amazing song.

[@MADesigns_]

omg YES!! I was waiting for you to bring this up! Thank you!

[@tinlapuz96]

Thank u Sir Kirby! You really made an effort to explain the Bulan mythology in relation to Felip's MV. As an A'TIN, I'm happy also that historians like you appreciate the works of our filipino music artists incorporating filipino culture and artistry in their craft.SLMT sang madamo!💙💠💙

I love your very powerful message especially towards the end of your video. Kudos also to Felip and his Bulan team for motivating us to explore and learn more of our rich Filipino mythology and culture.

[@triple1472]

huhu hindi ko alam bakit hindi ito tinuturo sa school sobrang ganda ng Philippine mythology hays

[@kendra2258]

True, mas alam pa natin greek mythology kaysa ph mythology, so sad nga. Thank you for this, so informative!

[@diannedejesus5660]

Ngayon palang masasabi kong tagumpay na si Felip sa nais nyang mas lalo pa nating kilalanin ang sarili nating kultura...salamat sa mga basher nadadagdagan ang kaalaman ng A'tin tungkol sa kulturang Filipino.

[@novera_mas8478]

Thank You Very Much, Sir Kirby Araullo!!! This is an Excellent Learning of our History and Cultural Heritage not only for the Youth but also for some Filipinos who never have known all of this. Thank you also for explaining your analysis on Felip's Bulan Song, this will truly understand by Everyone Worldwide!!!💖

[@tinay3575]

This. I'm just so proud to be a Filipino. Felip with the rest of SB19, really is making us look back and know our very own identity through their music and craft. I'm happy that through them I was able to learn more of my own roots. Thank you sir for such an informative content.

[@gcareyn]

woaw!!! yes, I am one of the Filipinos na hindi alam ang mythology natin. Thank you for this video for educating us. ❤️

[@KirbyAraullo]

It's never too late to start learning! Salámat! 😊

[@keunsat.1819]

Naiiyak ako sir thank you for this 😭😭😭😭😭

[@trees_v]

Thank you so much for this! I can't help but cry while watching this. There's so much more to our culture. We just need to dig deep. I hope pre-colonial filipino culture is taught in schools. Not speed reading but a whole subject about it

[@Elijah-oc4km]

Because colonisl mentality hispanista hahahshah

[@Hazer.eoruuuiii]

Thank you so much Sir ang dami Kong natutunan.

[@daniinpursuit7865]

Thank you, Sir Kirby! I am very amazed by our mythology and our culture. GOD bless you!

[@xyre8443]

I just watch your video about different dragons yesterday, what a coincidence. There are very few videos about Filipino myth on KZbin and I'm lazy to read textbooks or articles about it so I really appreciate that you make videos about it, I don't need to read tons of words because of these videos.
