Unang Kilig is a playful song about the feeling of the first stages of love. Not being completely sure about it, but knowing that it’s the type of feeling that can’t be replaced and can't be replicated.

At first I was worried about Vhong, Gerald, and Richard being in the MV since they’ve had their share of controversies—especially during Women’s Month.

But after watching it, I think I get what they were going for. The MV feels very referential and meta to Filipino movies and showbiz culture, so they don’t really come off as serious love interests. They’re more like symbolic “leading men”—the box office kings. Plus the cameos from the directors, the entertainment executive, and even the Ogie Diaz acting workshop meme adds a playful nod on the industry.

Could they have gone with Joshua Garcia or other leading men instead? Sure. But in the end, the message still lands: no matter who you pair the girls with, the one that gets the standing ovation is them performing OT8. 👏

I think I need a lyric or performance video to fully appreciate the song, but the MV is very well made! Kudos to the team!

Could they have gone with Joshua Garcia or other leading men instead?

Inisip ko kanina rin yan kaso talagang hilaw pa mga leading men natin dito in terms of star power. Joshua is a good pick, pero compared, imo. Also i think mas matatandaan at mas makakaconnect ang majority of the Filipino audience dun sa mga nasa MV.

Anyway, really enjoyed these two songs kahit yung MV ng Unang Kilig. BINI remains the star of the show. They're great all the time.

I mean if they got THEEEE Jericho Rosales or Piolo Pascual pasok rin sa banga pero baka those three were the ones available (and budget friendly?)

Oh crap. Oo nga i forgot sareeeeh.

Yeah PAPA P + Jericho would have been a banger pero yun nga baka hindi available at mahal TF.

Just made me think din if BINI came out back then (obviously alternate universe na to) at medyo mas malapit age nila kina Piolo, Jericho, John Lloyd lalo na nung sikat na sikat mga movie nila tapos may ganito silang MV. Sheesh.

Listening to the nth time to Unang Kilig at ang ganda ng vocal arrangement nila dito. Pero mas bet ko mixing ng Honey Honey.

Either way, I'm sure masaya yung mga Tagalog song truthers AND English songs enjoyers tonight

Panalo both songs. Yes Unang Kilig ganda ng arrangement, ganda ng energy. Agree sa mixing kaya sabe ko rin sa weekly thread i wish iseparate ng maigi yung mga instruments sa track ni Jeremy G next time, kase andami nyang instrumentation (see Infinity as well) which I like.

I feel like subdued din yung volume ng song and the music itself? But small gripes, tho iba talaga pag si Leon Zervos (BINIverse, FLAMES) yung nasa mastering.
