Filipino Songs

Welcome to Filipino Lyrics

Filipino music, especially OPM (Original Pilipino Music), is all heart. These lyrics speak straight to the soul — love that hurts, love that lasts, family, dreams, and that quiet strength Filipinos carry every day. Whether it’s a classic ballad that makes you cry in the jeepney or a modern track you blast with friends, Tagalog songs have a way of feeling personal, like they’re written just for you.

Our collection pulls together thousands of lyrics: timeless OPM staples, rock anthems from the 90s, heartfelt ballads, rising rap and indie vibes, and everything in between. Browse by artist, genre, or mood to find songs that hit different every time.

Top Genres & Artists

Filipino music has layers — legends who shaped OPM decades ago still get played, while newer voices keep the fire going. Here’s what’s always worth revisiting:

• Ballads & Love Songs – The core of OPM, pure emotion. Regine Velasquez (the queen of ballads with hits like “Kailangan Kita” and “Pangako”), Gary Valenciano (classics like “Sana Maulit Muli” and “Hangin”), Jose Mari Chan (timeless like “Beautiful Girl” and holiday staples), Basil Valdez (“Ngayon at Kailanman”), Side A and True Faith (acoustic heartbreak like “Forevermore”).
• Rock / Alternative – The 90s revolution that changed everything. Eraserheads (the Beatles of the Philippines — “Ang Huling El Bimbo”, “Pare Ko”, “Ligaya”), Rivermaya (“214”, “Hinaway”), Parokya ni Edgar (funny, satirical bangers like “Harana” and “Mr. Suave”), December Avenue (modern emotional rock like “Pag-ibig” and “Eroplanong Papel”).
• Pop / P-Pop – Catchy, anthemic, and full of energy. Sarah Geronimo (powerhouse like “Tala”, “Minamahal”), Moira Dela Torre (raw feels in “Pag-ibig”, “Paubaya”), Ben&Ben (folk-pop storytelling like “Leaves”, “Maybe the Night”), SB19 and BINI (P-pop kings/queens bringing global vibes with tracks like “What?”, “Pantropiko”).
• Hip-Hop / Rap – Street-smart, reflective, and growing fast. Shanti Dope (sharp lyricism), Flow G (hits like “Pauwi Na Ko”), Skusta Clee (raw energy), Hev Abi (fresh wave).

Other scenes we keep stocked: Indie folk (Arthur Nery’s neo-soul like “Pagsamo”), R&B (Dionela, Zack Tabudlo), and acoustic singer-songwriters (TJ Monterde’s “Palagi” still everywhere).
