OPM rock band Lola Amour has finally released the official music video for the popular song "Raining in Manila."

Released in June, the song "Raining In Manila" by Lola Amour tells the story of a person who is caught in the rain while in Manila. It reveals the feeling of longing and hope that the person experiences as they miss someone deeply but are unable to communicate with them due to the weather or distance. The song beautifully captures the essence of being in love and missing someone, and the struggles that come with it.

 

 

Currently No. 14 on Trending Music on YouTube as of Oct. 27,  netizens were thrilled about the long-delayed music video. Some comments:

"I love the symbolism of this song from moving on, coping mechanism to acceptance of fate, and tama yung isang comment na gecko symbolizes rebirth and a fresh start and for me, ulan symbolizes sadness which in this part 4 years ang ulan which is also the duration of his grieving period. For the rain to end means that he is happy and has the acceptance to move on. To start again."

"This is definitely one of those "out there" music videos, must've been really awesome to film it!"

"Glad this song finally have an official music video. Got to listen to this after going back to the Philippines this summer after 15 years of being away and finally coming back to my childhood home and seeing all my family once again. This song has touched so many emotions within me. Thanks Lola Amour for this wonderful music."

"It's quite funny, but in the Asian region, Geckos symbolize renewal, rebirth and fresh start. It's been 4 years since "Shiela" left and after 4 years he finally moved on. The song entices us about the meaning of happy in the "Happy ending". Which counterpart the words "sawakas" and "wakas" at the latter part of M/V."

"This song is immortal, it will never die. It's a masterpiece!"
