Funny: Eight stupid Pinoy songs according to Dee Kosh

05/28/2015 – Manila | A Singaporean radio host and popular comedy vlogger is spot on when he mentioned all of these Filipino stupid songs. Well, the fact the most Filipino singers are looking after commercial success rather than art is what makes Dee Kosh right in his judgement.

Darryl Koshy aka Dee Kosh was born in Philippines to Malaysian and Indian parents and moved to Singapore at an early age. He knows how to speak Tagalog fluently and his comments in these video makes my day really.

He said: “When I grew up in the Philippines I remember a lot of good songs, but at the same time I remember a lot of songs that made me go, ‘ano ba iyan?’ So I’ve decided to compile a few of those songs to see if you agree with me.”

Among the songs he mentioned in this video are Sexbomb Girl’s “Spaghetti Song” which he quoted “patas nang pababa, pataas nang pababa nang pababa”.

Sandara Park’s “In or Out,” did not escaped though, and The Masculados’ “Jumbo Hotdog.”

Referring to the Masculados hit, he quipped: “My childhood was very disturbing because of this song. I always felt insecure. I felt like everybody had a jumbo hotdog but mine was a mini dog.”

Kosh also included Vhong Navarro’s “Totoy Bibo” and Gladys and the Boxers’ “Sasakyan Kita.”

“The song [Sasakyan Kita] basically says, ‘whenever you want, let me ride you.’ I’m not even joking,” he said.

“It was very nostalgic for me to listen to these songs. But now that I’m older, I know that these songs are just stupid songs and it just went viral,” he said.

“But it is also good to know that these songs were accepted in the community in the Philippines because we, Filipinos, we love to laugh. And I think the older people of the time knew that these songs were stupid but were a good laugh,” he added.

Kosh has been fairly vocal about his Filipino roots, despite living in Singapore.

He also created several videos defending Overseas Filipino Workers especially in Singapore where according to him, racial discrimination is still rampant.

Oh by the way, Dee Kosh forgot about Yoyoy Villame’s “Butsike”
