Just in: Noynoy Aquino " Hindi Ka Nag-iisa " Music Video (with lyrics)
~
Sasamahan ka namin
Kahit paligid ay madilim
Iilawan ang daan
tungo sa magandang kinabukasan
`
Ika'y mamuno, kami ay susunod
Pagkakaisa'y ating itaguyod
Ang Pilipinas ay naghihintay
Handa kaming kumilos
Handang umalalay!
`
Chorus
`
Hindi ka nag-iisa...
Sa paggising ng Bayan
Kami ay kasama
`
Hindi ka nag-iisa...
Isasapuso ang dangal
ng aking Bayan
Sa tulong at biyaya
ng Maykapal
`
Magkakapit-bisig tayo
Ituloy natin ang Laban
ni Ninoy at Cory
Ng bawat mamamayan
Pagmamahal natin sa Bayan
Wag na natin itago
Di tayo susuko!
`
Chorus
`
Hindi ka nag-iisa
Sa paggising ng Bayan
Kami ay kasama
`
Hindi ka nag-iisa
Isasapuso ang dangal
ng aking Bayan
Sa tulong at biyaya
ng Maykapal
`
Magkakapit-bisig tayo
Sama-sama bawat Pilipino
Mula noon, ngayon, at
Kaylan pa man...
Hindi ka nag-iisa!

What can I say? WOW! Heartwarming! Moving! It definitely packs a punch!
What do you think?
Know what, maybe it's just me, but the music video has this entrancing and inspiring "Lord-of-the-Rings" aura and feel to me! :P At any rate, I'm definitely going to light, raise and carry my own torch and march with Noynoy and all of them -- towards a brighter tomorrow for my one and only nation!
Kudos!

Note: It premiered in the TV Patrol World timeslot of ABS-CBN few minutes ago and it will be played again tomorrow in the Eat Bulaga timeslot this time on GMA-7. Ogie Alcasid wrote the song for free for Noynoy. Kris and Boy Abunda produced it. I believe everybody, including the "Kapamilya" and "Kapuso" stars and the crew, volunteered to appear and worked on the music video. ALSO, I just typed down the lyrics while listening to the song. So, I apologize for any error if there's any. Thanks!

PLEASE HELP THE PHILIPPINES; THE MOTHERLAND IS IN DIRE NEED (Updated with pictures and videos)
Up until today, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos were affected by the flash floods caused by a record rainfall worse than that carried by Hurricane Katrina in the US. A lot of them lost everything underneath the murky and deadly water that invaded the capital last Sept 26. Hundreds of people have already been confirmed dead and countless still declared missing. Thousands more are still stranded inside or on top of the roofs of their submerged houses and rescuers find it uneasy to locate them due to the mounds of garbage and debris blocking the roads. Making matters more difficult are the cars, trucks, and other vehicles that were swept, overturned, and piled on top of each other by the raging flood water at the height of the typhoon. These people have not eaten or drank good water for days now and with them, are little children and even babies who by now are already really weakened and famished. Back here, many people have already been mobilized and/or have taken the initiative to conduct their own relief operations; and out of desperation or awe-inspiring altruism, have even launched their own rescue attempts using their own trucks, boats, and other things that may be used to help save people, albeit risking their own limbs and lives.
Wilson street, Greenhills, San Juan
But alas, we could only do so much. We need HELP. We cry for help NOW. We pray for reinforcement to come while many more LIVES CAN STILL BE SAVED and the situation can be improved BEFORE IT GETS EVEN WORSE.
TO ALL WHO MAY BE ABLE TO READ THIS, PLEASE HELP THE PHILIPPINES.
To my fellow Bicolanos, remember the time when we were hit hard by Supertyphoon Durian or 'Reming', our compatriots from Manila came to our rescue, like when this came. Now, it's our chance to do the same to them.
To our fellow Filipinos abroad, please help the MOTHERLAND! And perhaps, be able to share your many blessings to those who would trade anything now for a drop of clean water and a bottle of milk; a bite of a hot pandesal or a sip of noodle soup; and the warmth of the oldest blankets or worn-out clothes.
Please HELP OUR KABABAYANS. I wish to appeal to your Bayanihan Spirit that I know is still there somewhere deep inside your hearts. Please seek it now and have it lit...
Hereunder are some more pictures shared by people online:

Here are some videos uploaded by our Kababayans:
In this video, you will see cars being swept from one side to another and then, later you will see a woman climbing out of her SUV...
UPDATE: The September 28, 2009 episode of TV Patrol was one of the most intense and heart-wretching episodes the nation has ever seen. All over the internet, Filipinos here and abroad expressed their deepest sadness and even great shock via twitter, facebook, and other platforms while they watched that episode. Some of them even said that they were fighting back emotions or in actual tears at the sight of what happened to our hapless kababayans in the aftermath of Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy). The next day, people were still talking about what were shown on the said episode. Hereunder are some parts of that particular newscast.
Again, I hope you can help. Salamat at mabuhay po kayo!
