Ely is a great artist. Kung hihimayin nyo lang yung message ng mga sinulat nyang kanta, kala nyo yun na yon but there's always a reason behind those songs. Mga kantang puno ng kwento. Ely is an icon and a legend, the Eheads as well. Tipong pag pinagsama sama utak nilang apat, maganda tlaga kalalabasan. Blessed you four, Heads. ♥️

Alam nyo sa lahat nag heads si ely talaga idol ko.. Mas darker, mas malalim, walang pakialam. Yung mga post eheads materials nya ang angas kahit hindi pop. Keep rocking ely! Fan mo dito sa mindanao

[taylorjones]

Si Buddy talaga ang pinaka talented para sa akin musically, but Ely was the heart and soul of this band.

[jmrunnerpro]

Man that Vancouver concert is the best concert in my life. and I just wanted to say thank you

Sad to know na ang Eraserheads evolved into being a brand more than a band. Siguro noong nagsisimula pa lang sila, masaya silang lahat at close. But as time went by, naging about work na lang siya, to produce songs para sa recording label nila. Mas naiintindihan ko na rin yung sinabi ni Ely na di talaga sila magkakaibigan. More like work friends lang sila. Di sila tulad ng Parokya o Kamikazee na tropa talaga simala't sapul.

Tulad natin, pag napagod na tayo sa work natin and gusto natin ng new opportunity, we move on to a different job. Ganun din ginawa nila.

Sa linyang "mapapatawad mo ba ako, kung hindi ko sinunod ang gusto mo" malalim na ngpapahiwatig na malaki talaga ang pinag bago ng music style nila... tulad nga sa mga interview nila noon... experimental ang karamihan sa mga kanta nila... from classic pop na kantang pare ko, ligaya, magasin, , , malaki na ang pinag pabago ng style ng kanta nila... kung baga di na makasabay ang masa

[emarstaana]

Sana ma-interview mo sir sina buddy raimund marcus and ely, since nandyan naman na ang eheads for the world tour.

[Desumundo]

Sana ma interview din yung buo silang apat (Eheads).
Looking forward to more podcast Paco! :)

In a nutshell, Ely decided on a whim, taking into consideration how his "creative freedom" is constrained on his idea of keeping up with the pressure to produce the Eraserheads brand of music. Got it.

[Sweeper]

people should listen to his post heads songs. Langit Express by the oktaves and almost all pupil songs should have been hit but sadly they shut their hears because its not heads.. Ely will always be one of the best minds of OPM

[OrionOodama]

Kudos to Paco for asking on a different perspective, instead of bringing the same blunt question why Ely left the Eraserheads.

Over 22 years after Ely “graduated”, no one among band members shared the specifics why Ely left. The “closest” was Ely referring to “a certain incident” (MYX docu), which one hardcore fan (college pal) in turn referring to the Wiki entry (Pulp mag issue, Philippine summer 2002).

Sana maisingit mu sila SA Paco's place sir pacs

[lemuellachica]

Law on diminishing returns, change of musical trends and landscape. But one of the few bands whose first three albums were ingrained within Philippine culture. I still think Fruitcake and Sticker Happy were underrated. Natin99 and Carbon showed their individual tastes as much as the chemistry of the first three albums. But the creativity remains top notch. Their songs will live on amid changes in the music scene, if ever there is one today. Love this band to death.

Guess knina si sir Paco sa L.A. kansert!!! So guess nya naman sila sana dito! Hehe! More power sir Paco!

[jamesilisan]

Genius man

Sabi nga ni Rey Valera..
Kailangan ng bansang ito ay siraulong manunulat.. sila ang nagtatagal sa industriya.

[mazzarothman]

it's all about the money, and I respect that.

[timoznat]

For short ang gusto lang talaga ni Ely ay tumugtug. Yun lang, musikero talaga siya.

[rekeke]

Medyo sumakit yung leeg ko sa position ng microphone.

[ItumoFb]

Paco paki ayus yung boses mo masyadong mataas ang BASS ng boses mo medyo hassle pakinggan

[VGU]

All around the world people make a change
