Wow. You must be smart. So you associate the word "Versions" with cover songs. How smart. You are right at some point, mercifully... but not entirely.

So does naming an album "Versions" give them the excuse to cover all songs? Hmm... Yep, it certainly most have. Because that's what they are and that's the only thing they are good at- covering songs (showband). Beyond/Soulful Acoustic may contain originals, but as they notice that the only few 1-2 cover songs in these albums were the only ones noticed by the public, a smart marketing move spawned "Versions".

I highly doubt they'd be releasing an all-original album after this one. ppffft.

So you consider yourself smart?

I thought MYMP was a good band. I thought the only cover was Bob Marley's "Waiting In Vain". I thought they wrote "Every Little Thing". Wow, those chords are really neat, maybe this guy is really talented.

This goes to show how little you know about music. How can you not know Every Little Thing is a cover? Excuse me, but by your response, you make it seem that you know a lot about the music scene as you are very judgmental. Obviously you do not. Maybe you should crawl out of your little box and see the world in a different light.

God, I was so wrong. One day I heard the original.

Also to add, They never said that it was their original. So, what's the problem. So what? They covered a couple of songs on that album. So do a lot of other OPM artist. Are you gonna crucify them too? Not to mention the fact that international artists have been doing it also. It's a trend that goes way back.

They are one of the most pathetic bands in the country right now. They cover song after song after song after song (got my drift?)... This band can really play and the vocal is great, I must admit- but so do a thousand other showbands just as good as them. Yes people, this is the first showband able to acheive national success. Reasons heavily depend on the covers-- umm, I even wonder if they have rights to these songs.

Let me ask you... who are you to give such a comment like this. Do you sing? Do you play an instrument? Do you have a band? Have you ever composed a song? Have you ever released an album? Have you ever gained recognition? Seems to me that this is a case of the jealousy blues.

Their success didnt depend on their covers. As far as I can remember... their first single was Paalam na which was not a cover and this got a lot of radio play. Their second single was A little bit which gained them national recognition. Again this is not a cover. So they were already on the map even before Waiting in Vain was released as a single.

The list:
At Your Best
Especially for You
Eternal Flame
Love Moves (in Mysterious Ways)
Ordinary Love
Tell Me Where It Hurts
True Colors
For All of My Life
Beauty and Madness
Burn
Cool With You

Such a shame. HAVE YOU NO SHAME?!? Where the hell are the originals? Buried underground- that's where it is. This band lives and breathes on cover songs. Seriously, do some originals- and stop depending on covers so people will give chances at hearing the few MEDIOCRE original songs that you now have.

Sorry, but I can't stand any of this.

Have you no shame for making such remarks? Again crawl out of your little box and try to learn a little more before judging others. Burn and Cool With You were not a part of their albums. These two songs were covered by Nina. Nina's voice and Juris' voice are quite distinguishable. So if you couldn't tell them apart, well... This supports my first paragraph above.

For your info... MYMP released two albums. Beyond acoustic and Versions. Beyond acoustic is like their first album. Majority of it are originals and some of it are covers. Get me, an original, is their carrier single and is being heavily played in radios as well as MYX and MTV. A lot of other originals in my opinion have the potential to be big hits. So we'll see. So I, for the life of me, do not see why you are looking for their originals when they are very well visible and you can hear them as well on the radios and TV. Versions is a what the title of the album basically is. They mentioned that this is a gift to their listeners. Which we are very grateful as there have been many requests for them to release such an album.

I am a supporter of OPM music. For I believe that we are very musically talented as a nation. There may be some artists that I don't listen to, but I respect them and I don't go on their message boards and start trashing them. Payo lang tol... A LITTLE BIT of respect lang. Enough of the crab mentality.

Sorry, but I can't stand you or any of what you have to say. pffft.

are they to blame for your lack of intelligence about music? I know every little thing was not theirs. BUT IT WAS A FUCKING GOOD RENDITION AND STILL IS!!! you cant deny a good song. whats wrong with finding their nitch? nothing to be ashamed of when you're doing what you love and singing what you can sing!!!

maybe you're the one who should be ashamed... on the second thought, you are ashamed of yourself for making yourself anonymous.... AT LEAST MYMP GOT BALLS!!!

belive me, we can go on with this blog forever. i will ****ing nail your sorry ass where it belongs!!!

ey guys...

dont waste your time on this nonsense by nonsene nangding.

those comments were just flat out stupidity...

nangding · Member

Yeah, thanks for listening to the stupidity people.

I may have said some things that could offend the band and their fans, but I just hate it when people put out tons of renditions-- the fastest lane to a quick buck.

What I'm trying to say is that they should lean more on making good originals and not rely too much on renditions. In the long run, this path that they have taken will not be good for the band. People will come up with names to bash them, they will be known as the "Famous Cover Band" (very ironic). I believe MYMP has the technical skills-- I just think they shouldn't have used all those in renditions. They have really great potential.

There's nina, kyla, even regine... If I hear another cover, I'd go crazy. I know lots of people who start to get irritated with endless covers- what with the truckload of cover artists here in the Phils? Sadly nobody will ever back me up here because this IS, of course, mymp's website.

Yep, please reply.. I will be here for awhile. Makin' some much needed noise. The protagonist and the antagonist. Oooh, I'm excited already.

For your info... MYMP released two albums. Beyond acoustic and Versions. Beyond acoustic is like their first album. Majority of it are originals and some of it are covers. Get me, an original, is their carrier single and is being heavily played in radios as well as MYX and MTV. A lot of other originals in my opinion have the potential to be big hits. So we'll see.

This is exactly why I'm making my point. Renditions overshadow the originals. That's why I think they should stop the covers- that is, if they want to be known as a true original artist. In fact, that's what the "O" in "OPM" is all about.

The problem is the niche itself (not nitch). Yes, we can definitely go on with this forever.

Oh, and did I mention? Was there a point in your post? Nope, thought so.

And did I mention we'd go on forever?

nanding first thing... wag kang mambastos at dito pa sa websyt ng MYMP...

secondly before ka magpost try to make sure that u post the right info... gaya ng sinabi ng ibang reply sa post mo.... BURN and COOL WITH YOU is not included in their album... these two are included in nina's album...

third... the album VERSIONS is just a special packaging for SUPPORTERS who were religious enough to watch their gigs... the conceptualization of this album was written on the sheets of the original copies.... basahin mo nlang if you get a chance...

fourth... they have their 2nd album BEYOND ACOUSTIC wherein their originals were included on that album....

ALL ARE CERTIFIED PLATINUM ALBUMS already!

if u havent got a copy of their albums....

SOULFUL ACOUSTIC, BEYOND ACOUSTIC, VERSIONS

and VERSIONS & BEYOND.... mas mura ng 100 pesos!!

i trully understand your point. it's the way you delivered it that i don't. there's nothing to be ashamed of because they did no wrong.

even the biggest names in the music industry here and abroad did revivals. martin, for one, did a version of almost all of his favorite songs; forever, forever forever, return to forever, my souvinirs, more souvinirs, best wishes, and unforgettable. and everything went multi platinum. why? because people buy his album not only because they love the song but because they love martin himself! of course you have to give justice to the song, otherwise, you'll get crucified. whatever happened to the one released by pops fernandez. i heard it from a friend and the mere thought of it makes my ears bleed and my eyes to pop out!

my point is, people loved mymp not only for the songs they sing but for the very persons that they are; total package, talent, professionalism, charisma... they have released very good originals and i believe that with their talent and skills, a lot more is coming...

i am certain that their song "a little bit" will be revived by other artists in no time.

originals are much preferred but while they are busy making their rounds to reach out to their target market, anything is much appreciated!

nice thread...

different people have different opinions...

hhhmmm... should've watched your words though... but hey, it's your post nangding... you deserve whatever comes back at you... you reap what you sow... but i guess this is what you really wanted...

i agree with what you said... mymp should work on their originals... there's always room for improvement... lyrics-wise, they should give more thought into them...

but hey, that's just my opinion...

melai · Senior Member

hey! how dare you?? you know what i guess you you dont know what MUISC is...thats why its being called version dba...and most of the songs were requested by their fans thats why they have to do their own VERSIONS. and about the originals their songs are great!! dont you dare do that again...well if you dont like them back off...your're not the only one in this world..and if ever you hear their song being played throw your radio or your cd player so you wont hear them again...ever!

No, I might feel a lot of things, but jealousy is certainly not one of them. meh. What's wrong with my english? Does it intimidate you?

but hey, that's just my opinion...

At last, I've found someone who has brains! :)

I must admit I was wrong going into this forum with much aggressiveness. But at the time, I was really getting sick of having to hear covers all over the radio-- and with a band like MYMP (which I believe has GREAT POTENTIAL) doing most of the work with these renditions, I was really disappointed. Although people like the "cover band", they still need and lack the respect for an original artist-- and the COULD have gotten it, if only they concentrated on their originals.

BTW, if you come to think of it, it IS a shame to be named a "popular cover band". Sad but true.

Oh, and for those people who always rely on the album name "Versions" for their rebuttals, name me an MYMP album with ONLY PURE original music. Don't all of their albums contain covers? And hey, guess what- it seems like the carrier singles in these albums are always the covers, too.

All I'm saying is, they owe all their success to covers since the beginning, and I'm not talking about one particular album.

you shuld b right calling them cover artist, but just give them a chance, you said they have potetials, leave them alone..MYMP pls come to La Union, we are eager to see u perform live.

lala cute · Member

hi nangding

fyi: their carrier single was an original: get me... they could have chosen a cover song but they opted to release an original...

it's only their second album...give them two more and you'll get what you're asking for....

they may have been in the music industry for quite some time but they are still rookies in this business( it's just their second album)... i think it's just marketing strategy...this way many people would know and appreciate their music...

now that i think of it... i think it's their record label's idea to release a "cover album"... who would want to release two albums at the same time, ryt? hmmmmm.....
