I never did like Martin Nievera or any of his songs although I was quite intrigued as to how we would sing the National Anthem in the Pacquiao-Hatton fight. As I have predicted, not only did he MURDER the National Anthem, he had the gall to be an ass about it by saying he "sang it right"; Did you really sing it properly Mr. Nievera?

Any third grade elementary student with some sense in his head can sing the the National Anthem better than Mr. Nievera! He probably thinks that by jazzing (more like hamming) it up, Filipinos would find it nice? The National Anthem is not a jingle nor an R&B tune: It is a Military March.

But then again, it's just me. Perhaps I am just not too fond of the idea that that piece of music written over a hundred years ago stood for something more than just a collection of notes on a piece of paper subject to a "reimagining" by some two-bit arranger -- and many people have DIED and SACRIFICED many things in order that Mr. Martin Nievera would be able to freely sing it. The least he could have done, would have been to sing it the way it should be sung.

People are on the fence about the matter, some say that he sang it well, and he did it with pure intentions. BULLCRAP. Good intentions mean nothing when you put to shame the memory of a thousand patriots who died with the song on their lips and their hearts. But you are, after-all, Mr. Martin Nievera - you can get away with being O.A.  (I need not elaborate on this, you can readily see how O.A. he sings anyway)  and give interviews to the likes of Kris Aquino, but that's just me.

If there's one consolation out of this whole fiasco is that, Mr. Nievera sang it well and properly (according to him anyway) -- Well, everybody is entitled to their own DELUSIONS. Mr. Nievera, I say to you, you are one deluded and conceited juju. You can't even apologize to the Millions of Filipinos you've shamed by your shameless act of desecrating the National Athem.  You think you are some Holy shit aren't you? You think your actions have no repercussions? My God! You are so full of yourself. You need to be spanked or better yet, drawn and quartered and left out in the sun to rot like the dog that you are.
