Started in late 1994, the band re-captures the original groove and spirit of the reggae vibe - when reggae appealed more to the heart and the hips, infusing it with pop undertones that strike a familiar chord with Filipino “aural palates”, not to mention their pelvic areas. BROWNMAN REVIVAL is made up of the one-drop rocksteady beats of drummer Dennis, the sensual grooves of Jao on bass, the sexy accents from percussionist Januarie, the steady “chanka” rhythms of Alphy on guitars, the wicked horn riffs of Jayson on trombone, Jojo on sax, Ambet on trumpet, capped-off by the passionate wailing of frontman Dino.
Drawing heavily on contemporary reggae acts such as Big Mountain and UB40, BROWNMAN REVIVAL creatively mixes the traditional roots sound of venerated reggae icon Bob Marley, with an OPM sensibility producing a festive but sensuous strain of Lover’s Rock reggae with such vibrant energy that never fails to leave the crowds winding and grinding their sweaty bodies to the band’s euphoric reggae party.
Yakap Sa Dilim
Brownman Revival Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Katawan mo ay aking kukumutan
Mga problema, iyong malilimutan
Habang tayo'y magkayakap sa dilim
Huwag mong pigilin kung nais mapaluha
Pakiramdam mo sana'y guminhawa
Kung gusto mo ay magsigarilyo muna
Heto na ang pinaka-hihintay natin
Heto na tayo, magkayakap sa dilim
O kay sarap ng mga nakaw na sandali
Habang tayo'y magkayakap sa dilim
Heto na ang pinaka-hihintay natin
Heto na tayo, magkayakap sa dilim
O kay sarap ng mga nakaw na sandali
Habang tayo'y magkayakap sa dilim
Halika na at sumiping ka sa kama
Lasapin natin ang pagsasama
Sa ‘ting pag-ibig tayo ay umaasa
Habang tayo'y magkayakap sa dilim
Yakapin mo ako
Yakapin mo ng husto

Sandal mo sana ang ulo mo sa unan
I want you to rest your head on the pillow
Katawan mo ay aking kukumutan
I will wrap your body around with embrace
Mga problema, iyong malilimutan
Forget all your troubles
Habang tayo'y magkayakap sa dilim
As long as we are hugging in the darkness
Huwag mong pigilin kung nais mapaluha
Don't hold back if you want to shed tears
Pakiramdam mo sana'y guminhawa
I hope you will feel relieved
Kung gusto mo ay magsigarilyo muna
If you want, smoke first
Bago tayo magkayakap sa dilim
Before we hug in the darkness
Heto na ang pinaka-hihintay natin
Here we are, it's what we've been waiting for
O kay sarap ng mga nakaw na sandali
Oh, how sweet are these stolen moments
Halika na at sumiping ka sa kama
Come on and lie down on the bed
Lasapin natin ang pagsasama
Let's savor our togetherness
Sa ‘ting pag-ibig tayo ay umaasa
In our love, we have hope
Yakapin mo ako
Hug me
Yakapin mo ng husto
Hug me tightly
