Re: Pag Natatalo Ang Ginebra by Gary Granada
Gary Granada’s ‘Pag Natatalo ang Ginebra’ still resonates
t’s a sad night for fans of Barangay Ginebra, after watching their
bitter Manila Clasico rivals B-MEG defeat the Gin Kings in the
Commissioner’s Cup semifinals. During big losses, we couldn’t help but
look back at Gary Granada’s classic opus about the squad:
Granada released the first in the series of Ginebra songs during the
Marlou Aquino-Bal David-Noli Locsin era, so the songs contain
references to players from that team, which dates them a little.
Still, few pieces of Filipino pop culture capture the intricacies of being a basketball fan so well.
loses, for the team’s fans, remain the same. Judging by comments on
Twitter, a lot of them are just about ready to go to war:
perfectly, the very best aspect of PBA fandom: how it’s just a small
indulgence, really, a balm to soothe a heart weary of everyday life, a
fact that doesn’t stop the singer from living and dying with every shot.
Think about how much effort it takes a regular fan just to support
his or her favorite team: lining up for tickets, figuring out how to
get to the venue, perhaps even taking time off work just to go to the
game, and once there, shouting himself hoarse cheering for his team.
There’s a certain unique pleasure about knowing how silly it is to
invest so much of yourself to a team named after a brand of gin or milk
or hotdog, but going ahead and doing it anyway. There is something to
be said about loving something so irrationally, and yet making no bones
about it.

Sinusundan ko ang bawat laroThe players’ names may have changed but the feelings when Ginebra
Ng koponan kong naghihingalo
Sa bawat bolang binibitaw
Di mapigilang mapapasigaw
Kahit hindi relihiyoso
Naaalala ko ang mga santo
O San Miguel, Santa Lucia
Sana manalo ang Ginebra

Dumidilim ang aking paninginBeyond all that, Granada’s Ginebra songs capture, so fully and so
Ang tenga ko ay nagpapanting
Bumabalik sa aking isip
Ang nakaaway ko noong Grade 6
Parang gusto ko nang magkagiyera
Galit ako sa mga pasista
Galit ako sa imperyalista
Feel na feel kong maging aktibista
Pag natatalo ang Ginebra

Pagbigyan nyo na akoSource: Interaksyon.com
Paminsan-minsan lang ito
Gumaang ang nabibigatang puso
Pagbigyan nyo na ako
Sa munting hilig kong ito
Kung hindi baka mag-away pa tayo
