Triple Pinoy Treat in the Indonesian Top 20 TV Charts

When Pangako Sa 'Yo skyrocketed to Number 5 of the Indonesian charts, it was not the sole Pinoy entry into the Indonesian Top 20. The first episode of Untuk Selamanya (Magpahanggang Wakas) starring Arci Muñoz had its debut at the 14th place (nice move in resscheduling its first episode after Pangako Sa Yo, both the programs which preceded it, Ayu Anak Depok City & the one after it were taken along by the momentum of the PSY wave). Then at Number 20, a special on the songs of Jose Mari Chan was featured at station IVM, the top rater of the said station. Jose Mari Chan is one of the big Pinoy musical exports to Indonesia which included Eddie Peregrina, Victor Wood, Freddie Aguilar & Christian Bautista.

World Pinoy Pop Classic "ANAK" in Various Languages

This 1978 original song by Pinoy legend Freddie Aguilar was recorded in 27 languages, about a hundred versions in 56 countries  & sold about 30 million copies. The original Tagalog version topped the Billboard charts in the US, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Japan, etc. Proof that great music is universal no matter the language of the lyrics.

I chanced a friend watching it in his computer while we were hanging out in a coffee shop. I got curious of its versions in other languages.
