For those who waited a year, Rico Blanco's new album "Your Universe" is definitely worth it. It's a defining mark in the 35-year-old musician's career, and a reminder that he has the freedom to experiment and collaborate with others without compromising sound.
Through the ten tracks of "Your Universe," we can confirm that Rico's personal passions are gracefully translated into songs distinctly and undeniably his, even as he collaborates with some of the industry’s best musicians for this album.
He knows how to tickle the fancy of Filipinos by delivering the right amount of romantic prose minus the extra saccharine shot of sap. Perhaps it can be said that he knows the formula of the Filipino's heart which makes his music work. Definition and identity. This is what sets Rico Blanco apart from most of the local acts. He knows his niche in the industry and makes his mark the way a true blooded artist should: original and a strong definition of one's identity.
Sayong sayo

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hindi naman natin hinintay
Bigla na lang tayong tinamaan
Ng walang kamalay malay
Tila
Panaginip ang bawat eksena
Kapag kapiling ka ang buhay ko
'Di ba
Ito ang inasam nating biyaya
Hindi na luluha ang puso ko
Sayong sayo
Sayong sayo
Hindi ko makita ang hangganan
Ligayang higit pa sa labis
Pati langgam nabibilaukan
Sa sobrang tamis
Walang mintis
Kainis
Tila
Panaginip ang bawat eksena
Kapag kapiling ka ang buhay ko
Buong buo
'Di ba
Ito ang inasam nating biyaya
Hindi na luluha ang puso ko
Sayong sayo
Papel gunting bato
Ano bang klaseng chamba
Daig pa ang lotto
Sa puso mo ako'y tumama
Tila
Panaginip ang bawat eksena
Kapag kapiling ka ang buhay ko
Buong buo
'Di ba
Ito ang inasam nating biyaya
Hindi na luluha ang puso ko
Sayong sayo
Sayong sayo
Sayong sayo
Sayong sayo

While hearing this song diko maiwasang isipin or imaginin si Maris like alam kong dedicated kay Maris tong song. As in damang dama ko sa song yung sweetness overload ng pagmamahal ni sir Rico kay Maris. If I were maris too, hindi naman ako magtataka kung mafall din ako kay sir. Kahit mas older. Love is full of unpredictable things.
Sana lang talaga hanggang dulo na to🫶🏻✨🙌🏻
