Moira Dela Torre thanks fans as 'Paubaya' music video hit 10 million views

Moira Dela Torre woke up to the good news that the music video of "Paubaya" from the last chapter of her 2020 album "Patawad" has dominated the online world and garnered 10 million views in less than 36 hours.

Dela Torre couldn't be more thankful about it. "Grabe kayo. Salamat sa lahat ng pagmamahal," she wrote on Facebook.

"At saludo kami sa lahat ng nagpatawad, nagpalaya at nagpaubaya. Mahal na mahal namin kayo. Di ka nag-iisa."

Dela Torre shared some behind-the-scenes photos of the music video which featured actors and former sweethearts Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto.


In another post, the 27-year-old singer-songwriter thanked the reel couple for "everything."


"Thank you for your trust, your love and your time. You are two of the best actors we know, but you are also two of the kindest, strongest & bravest that we know. It's such an honor to be called your friend. Thank you for closing this season with us and for helping us tell a beautiful story of forgiveness of freedom and of trusting God. Love you both so much. Thank you."

Aside from being actors in the music video, Joshua and Julia were also credited for script dialogue, which prompted many netizens to assume that their throwing of lines scenario is based on how their real-life story unfolded.


And what added to the fire is the fact that the two used their real names in addressing one another.


Here’s the transcript:

Julia: “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Josh. I’m sorry, napagod ako. I’m sorry, nawala ako. Natakot ako kasi hindi kita mahanap noon. Binigay ko lahat. Binigay ko sa’yo lahat, naubos lang ako. I’m sorry nasaktan kita.”

Joshua: “Sorry. Sorry kung wala ako nung mga panahong kailangan mo ako. Sorry kung wala ako nung kailangan mo ng kakapitan. Sorry kung hindi kita naprotektahan. Hindi man lang kita naprotektahan. Natakot ako. Sobra. Pero gusto ko nandu'n ako. Gusto ko nandu'n ako nu'ng nasasaktan ka. Pero wala. Siguro dahil alam ko na rin na hindi talaga tayo para sa isa’t-isa.”

Julia: “Sinubukan naman natin ’di ba? Nilaban naman natin ’di ba?”

Joshua: “Yeah. We tried. Gusto ko mag-thank you sa’yo sa lahat ng memories na binigay mo sa akin. Hindi man natin nagawa ’yung mga pangarap natin, masaya na ako sa pinagsamahan natin. Masaya ako na masaya ka.”

Julia: “Gusto kong maging masaya ka rin. Thank you.”

Joshua: “Thank you.”

Julia. “Thank you. Thank you.”

Joshua: “Thank you…Oh, God…Gusto ko malaman mo na pinapatawad kita.”

Julia: “Pinapatawad din kita.”

Joshua: “Kailangan ko…Take care of yourself…”

Recall that after the release of the trilogy - "Patawad, Paalam" with I Belong to the Zoo, "Paalam," a collaboration with Ben&Ben, and her solo effort "Patawad" - the finale "Paubaya" was gifted to fans on Valentine's Day.


"At dito nagtatapos ang kabanata ng Patawad. Sana naramdaman mo yung "kalma. Yung lubag ng loob." Sana lahat tayo ay lumabas na handang sumugal at magmahal muli. At maalala natin palagi na ang pag-asa ay hindi isang pantasya na binubulag tayo sa katotohanan. Dahil lahat ng bagay ay may dahilan. Hindi ka nag-iisa," Moira also wrote.


"Kaya ang tanging panalangin na isinisigaw ko sa hangin ay sana sa pagsalubong natin sa bagong umaga, Tayo'y natutong magpatawad at humingi ng tawad; Magpalaya at lumaya; at higit sa lahat, natutong ipaubaya ang lahat sa Kanya. Hanggang sa susunod na kabanata. Salamat sa'yo."
