00:00.0
Have you ever wanted to quit the band?
00:03.3
There's always a point na you think you wanna leave.
00:06.3
May happen when things are not going well.
00:08.8
So don't listen to your thoughts when you're not doing so well.
00:13.4
It's almost therape...
00:29.3
I play the drums.
00:31.6
Hello! Ako si Miguel Benjamin
00:33.4
and I play acoustic guitar, vocals, and write songs.
00:37.5
Hello! I'm Agnes.
00:44.9
I play percussion and sing backing vocals.
00:49.5
I play percussion and do backing vocals.
00:53.9
I play the violin.
00:54.8
Hello! My name's Paolo Benjamin
00:56.6
and I sing, play acoustic guitar, and co-write the song.
01:02.9
May anaba? Formation?
01:04.7
Since magkakasama na kami ng six years, no?
01:08.8
Medyo close to like family na talaga yung dynamic ng lahat.
01:13.0
Personally, it's the longest relationship that has survived my life so far.
01:19.2
Nakakatawa kasi noon na hindi naman kami super close.
01:23.9
Joke lang, hindi.
01:24.5
We're really all also different people.
01:27.8
Pero it's been a deep fellowship of the ring.
01:33.5
At maraming pa kaming pagdadaan eh.
01:35.0
Alright, so today we're going to test your relationship.
01:39.2
With a lie detector and a set of question cards.
01:42.9
Question number one.
01:46.7
Who is the easiest to work with in the band?
01:51.4
Well, madali sa akin, Spotch.
01:58.9
Kaya kakabal naman yung tun-
02:08.0
Spotch, I'm sorry.
02:10.2
But that's true though.
02:12.0
Kasi I've known Spotch since we were in college.
02:15.0
Nag-session din kami for a lot of artists yung time na yun.
02:18.4
So even before the band, palagi ko na siyang katrabaw.
02:21.8
Ang light lang kasi niya laging kausap.
02:23.6
Tapos lagi niya nagigits yung tinatry kong sabihin.
02:26.9
Notorious kasi ako sa band na mahirap maintindihan.
02:29.8
Because I always have this like,
02:32.0
alternative point of view
02:33.9
coupled with bad communication skills.
02:36.5
It's not the best combo.
02:38.3
Si Kaif parang mayroon natural inclination to understand first.
02:42.3
Feeling ko nasa zodiac sign yan eh.
02:44.0
Ba't ano ba kayo? Magka-match yung-
02:45.9
Hindi ko alam, pero feeling ko lang.
02:48.6
Dapat ba mo yung sing-sing? Okay lang.
02:50.2
Hindi, ako lang yan.
02:51.0
Baka lumuka siya ngayon.
02:55.8
Do you think you've changed since you joined the band?
02:59.0
Oh yes, definitely.
03:03.9
Calm your mind, Migs.
03:05.6
Kinakabayan ako, baka mag-
03:11.4
Sabi sa'yo ba, naka-join ba yung sing-sing eh?
03:16.5
Sino ba naman hindi magbabago?
03:18.2
Sino ba naman? Totoo yan.
03:21.7
Kaming nine, sobrang magkakaiba talaga kaming tao.
03:25.6
Kahit sa work or sa personal relationships namin,
03:28.8
kailangan naming mag-adjust para sa isa't isa.
03:31.2
Kasi gano'n naman yung relationships, diba?
03:33.0
Kasi syempre na-influence namin yung isa't isa eh.
03:35.2
Yung mga perspectives na hindi ko naisip dati
03:38.2
nung hindi ko pa sila kilala.
03:39.5
Para na-adapt mo yan eh.
03:40.8
I mean, I believe God used you also to shape me
03:43.2
the way I see the world and, you know, live it also.
03:46.5
What we've done, yung experience din talaga namin as a band.
03:51.3
So, imposibleng hindi kami magbago.
03:54.3
What hasn't changed is, I guess, my love for you guys.
03:57.1
More of anything.
03:58.6
Sabi nga nila, kapag hindi ka nagbago, hindi ka nag-grow.
04:04.2
You're not telling the truth, ah?
04:05.8
Baka, ano, pwede yung sya yung mashock natin.
04:09.0
Oo nga eh, mamaya, guys, baka natin ito.
04:11.7
Have you ever pretended to like our song
04:14.8
that you really did not?
04:16.4
Ha, ako pa talaga?
04:21.4
I always tell you guys naman, pag ayoko, diba?
04:23.8
Kahit na ako lang yung mayayaw sa something, but
04:26.8
AHH! LALA! SHOCK!
04:30.3
Feeling ko pag magalaw,
04:34.9
So, I like our music.
04:37.2
I don't think I ever disliked a song in the creation process.
04:41.4
But there have been songs na parang overtime,
04:43.6
habang tinutugtog natin pa ulit-ulit.
04:48.6
Ang dami-dami nating songs na pwedeng tugtogin,
04:51.6
ba't ito na naman?
04:53.8
You guys know yung Spotify?
04:56.0
Well, for the past years, number one ko yung Ben & Ben.
04:59.9
Part din siya nung 5%.
05:02.4
Yeah, as in the top listeners of Ben & Ben.
05:05.2
So, siya lang yung sa band yung ganun.
05:07.1
Okay, in all honesty,
05:08.7
hindi ko gusto yung Could Be Something nung una.
05:10.8
Ako siguro yung hirap mag-accept ng change.
05:13.6
I know that change is good.
05:15.1
Pero sa akin parang,
05:16.0
if you've been playing a similar style of music
05:18.6
in the past six years,
05:19.7
and then biglang mag-offer ng
05:21.3
completely different direction,
05:22.9
syempre masyadong shake-up ka kasi
05:24.2
six years ko itong ginagawa.
05:25.6
So, I went through this whole journey
05:27.5
of reinventing din yung sarili ko,
05:29.6
pagtugtog ko, learning lots of things.
05:31.5
And then, gusto ko naman na siya ngayon.
05:33.4
Stream, Could Be Something.
05:34.5
Out now on all streaming platforms.
05:36.9
Ang galeng, galeng, galeng!
05:40.2
Have you ever used your musical ability
05:42.3
to impress someone you liked?
05:51.0
Especially nung high school.
05:53.3
Mamaya na ako mag-explain.
05:54.4
Ah, sige, sige, sige.
05:58.2
Alam ko na akong bakit.
05:59.8
Kasi hindi siya like.
06:01.3
I'll, uh, someone I love.
06:05.4
Sa asawa ko, syempre.
06:06.6
Dahil nga sa kanya,
06:07.5
saot ko yung sing-sing na to.
06:08.5
Tapos dahil sa kanya,
06:09.5
lumalakas yung kuryente.
06:11.5
Well, sinulat ako siya ng maganda.
06:13.4
Tapos yun yung araw-araw.
06:16.8
Guys, nothing to hide!
06:18.6
Saan mo pa gagamitin yun?
06:21.5
It's the people pleaser in all of us.
06:23.9
Actually, doon lang naman sa crush level eh.
06:26.0
Hindi naman yung parang,
06:27.0
alam mo yung like,
06:27.6
ah, I'm gonna pursue this, pursue that.
06:29.4
So, dati kasi nung high school.
06:31.0
I mean, hindi naman ako marunong
06:32.5
kay pag-usap sa mga tao.
06:34.0
So, like, tatambay lang ako
06:36.3
Tapos gigitara ako doon.
06:37.3
Then, that's how I would make friends.
06:39.0
It's more of like,
06:39.7
oh, cute lang yun.
06:40.7
Uy, may bago akong riff.
06:41.7
Gagawin ko ito, kaya...
06:43.3
Do you know magbalik intro?
06:46.0
Have you ever been jealous of anyone
06:49.4
in the music industry?
06:54.0
I wish I was like this or like that.
06:56.4
Yes with explanation.
07:01.7
It's a different adjective.
07:05.2
Wait, I have to explain.
07:07.3
Bakit ako nung job?
07:11.8
But the answer is yes!
07:15.8
Grabe yung honesty!
07:17.3
Jealous is the wrong word.
07:22.1
Nami kasing magagaling talagang drummer eh.
07:25.6
And I'm not the technical drummer eh.
07:27.8
So, madaling maintimidate.
07:29.6
Actually, feeling ko naman jealous.
07:31.4
Pero, more of competitive.
07:32.9
Kasi like, I grew up having a twin.
07:35.4
That really brings out something in you eh na, you know,
07:38.0
you have a tendency to compare yourself to someone else.
07:41.7
I mean, sobrang solid kami ni Migs kasi talaga.
07:44.3
Pero, I still carried that in other aspects of my life.
07:48.8
Kapag kasama ko kasi kayo, parang
07:50.7
meron akong mga napupulot ng mga ugali nyo na gusto ko
07:53.6
na sana ganun ako.
07:54.6
Like, I wish I was as wise as Tony
07:56.7
or I wish I was as positive as Agnes.
08:00.3
Like, being very vulnerable about it.
08:02.9
Minsan, ang hirap eh kasi yung competitiveness ko na yun, parang
08:08.1
it's not something that I encounter a lot with other people.
08:12.6
So, sometimes it gets very lonely.
08:14.8
But, it's super important to have a strong support system
08:18.8
that will be able to catch you in your weaknesses.
08:22.8
I think that's the most honest I've ever been about this topic.
08:25.8
Okay, so ito, ito, ito.
08:27.7
Maganda to, maganda to, maganda to.
08:29.9
Who would you least likely and trust your life with in the band?
08:33.4
And why is his name Andrew?
08:36.8
O, madaming choices.
08:43.0
Sige, yun nalang.
08:44.9
Alam akong bakit.
08:45.9
Nasa'yo kaya, sige ikaw bakit.
08:54.8
Oh my gosh, why did I?
08:59.6
Kung gumawa kami ng anak ni Poch.
09:02.4
Pero that won't happen.
09:05.8
Okay kasi, si Agnes,
09:08.0
siya yung tipong minsan talaga,
09:09.7
may times na sobrang sabawin niya talaga.
09:11.2
I just flow with everyone.
09:12.8
So like yung tipong kunyari.
09:14.5
Biglang zombie apocalypse.
09:16.2
Tapos andyan na yung mga zombie.
09:17.8
Feeling kasi si Agnes kasi parang
09:19.6
mabilis siya ma-distract.
09:21.8
Uy, astig yung ano, magandas!
09:24.6
Magkakaiwalay kami kagad,
09:26.1
makakain ako ng zombie, yung mga ganun.
09:28.0
Let's say, knock on wood,
09:29.1
nagkaroon na ako ng malubhang sakit.
09:30.7
Tapos meron akong specific na gamot
09:32.7
na kailangan inumin.
09:34.0
Agnes, birin mo naman to.
09:37.9
Ito 500, so kailangan mo i-divide by 10.
09:41.2
I think kaya yan.
09:46.7
How do you guys deal with being so close na together?
09:50.4
But at the same time, you have to work.
09:52.0
Hindi na kami nakatila sa isang bahay.
09:54.2
That's how we do it.
09:55.8
Noong kasagsagan ng pandemic,
09:57.7
sobrang naging close kami kasi.
09:59.5
Iba yun eh, pag magkakasama kayo sa bahay.
10:01.7
Definitely, there were days na naging challenging siya
10:04.6
and meron kang tension sa work.
10:06.8
Mahalaga din kasi yung time na hindi kayo magkakasama.
10:09.4
Para pag nagkita na kayo ulit,
10:11.6
may time ka to think.
10:12.8
E pag kanyaring nag-away kayo,
10:14.4
tapos biglang may pila sa CR,
10:15.9
tapos kaya pa rin yung magkakasama.
10:17.8
Tsaka kasi, I think ngayon,
10:19.4
dahil nga mas kilala namin yung isip isa,
10:21.6
mas sensitive na rin kami.
10:23.1
Something that we always do is give
10:25.2
high importance to conversation and communication.
10:29.4
Alam niyo yun si Migs.
10:30.4
Mahilig yun makipag-uusap.
10:31.8
Kahit ayaw mo na,
10:33.1
kakausapin ka niya.
10:34.2
Of course, the bottom line is like
10:36.2
the positive impact that you make
10:38.0
individually and as a group.
10:39.4
And that's why we keep going.
10:41.4
Freestyle? Uy, alam ko ito, freestyle.
10:44.3
Ask them anything that can be answered with a yes or no.
10:49.9
Okay, okay, okay.
10:50.9
Oh my God, may time ba
10:52.8
na gusto mong manulak or manuntok ng bandmate?
10:58.0
Hindi, wala talaga.
10:58.8
Kasi hindi ganun yung coping ko with anger.
11:03.5
Kakawin tao kasi.
11:04.6
Dramatic enough ba yun?
11:07.8
Hindi nga, wala talagang time.
11:09.2
Kasi usually, pagka,
11:13.4
Nakaka-earnest ka na,
11:14.6
anong time ka free mamaya?
11:18.0
Okay, feeling mo ba
11:19.8
aabot pa tayo ng 20 years as a band?
11:28.8
Dami tayo nyo eh!
11:31.2
like habang nagde-daydream lang ako,
11:32.9
bigla kong na-imagine,
11:35.5
yung lahat kami nasa isang dining area
11:38.6
na may mga batang tumatakbo.
11:40.2
Tapos nagde-dinner lang kami so-
11:43.3
Oo, boy ka pa naman nun!
11:46.8
Bless kay Lola Tugli!
11:50.4
Magiging basher ka ba ng recreate?
11:56.0
We will find out.
11:57.8
Oh my God, let's work with this!
12:00.4
I think in terms of,
12:01.9
in the realm of bashing,
12:03.2
there is criticisms, that's good.
12:05.4
But at the end of the day,
12:06.2
your goal is to lead everyone into the truth
12:08.9
and constructive upliftment of everyone.
12:12.9
This is rigged, guys.
12:18.8
Have you ever wanted to quit the band?
12:30.9
Nagsasabi na nga ng totoo yung tao eh.
12:33.4
Alam niyo yung Ikigai,
12:36.1
nung nabasa ko siya,
12:38.2
ah, ang laki ko na-
12:46.0
I love Ben & Ben!
12:48.6
I wanna thank my family!
12:51.2
Legit ba na, yes?
12:54.1
There's always a point
12:56.3
na you think you wanna leave.
12:58.2
Pero yung mga thoughts kasi na gano'n.
12:59.9
They happen when things are not going well.
13:02.5
No, yung answer ko,
13:04.0
mas question siya,
13:05.4
hindi dahil dun sa band,
13:06.9
pero dahil sa akin,
13:07.7
ay yung direction ko sa buhay.
13:10.2
iba yung generation ko sa kanila.
13:11.8
Parang napapaisip lang ako,
13:13.4
ito ba talaga yung dapat kong gawin sa buhay?
13:15.6
Anong ginagawa ko dito?
13:17.7
why do I feel this way?
13:19.1
Why do I feel like quitting?
13:21.0
If the root is not directly connected to the problem,
13:23.5
then your problem is probably somewhere else.
13:26.7
parang okay lang naman ako
13:28.0
playing lang na kahit sa background,
13:31.0
arranger, producer,
13:32.0
yung mga gano'n noon.
13:32.9
But then when we became like a band,
13:35.5
made me realize na
13:36.9
I really wanna stick and do this
13:39.5
with my best friends.
13:41.2
Salamat at nandito ka pa rin.
13:42.6
Oo, nandito ka pa rin eh.
13:45.0
it's almost thera-pay.
13:51.2
I mean, honestly,
13:52.4
a lot of the things na
13:54.3
na-share namin dito,
13:55.6
one way or another,
13:56.9
we kinda know it off each other.
13:59.2
Because, you know,
13:60.0
that's what six years of being a band does to you.
14:02.1
It's nice to refresh these things,
14:05.4
kasi getting to talk about it
14:07.6
every once in a while,
14:08.8
strengthens and nurtures that relationship.
14:11.6
Gusto ko malaman mo na kami rin,
14:13.1
kahit di namin sinasabi,
14:14.6
nai-inspire kami sa tapang mo
14:17.1
to voice out who you are.
14:21.1
Can't wait for a lot more years of
14:24.4
music and friendship.
14:25.9
You know, I love these guys, and uh...
14:28.3
Excited na ko mag-Wembley tayo guys.
14:30.0
Please, let's make it happen.
14:32.2
Mag-Wembley ba kami?
14:34.1
Well, we have a single out now,
14:36.0
it's called Could Be Something.
14:37.6
It's about taking risks,
14:39.1
and we're very happy with how it turned out.
14:41.8
So please stream it on streaming platforms,
14:46.0
I just wanna thank lahat ng mga naikinig
14:48.7
nagsa-support sa band since day one,
14:51.2
and yung mga nag-support lang din kahapon,
14:53.8
kasi you guys are equally loved,
14:55.6
and we wanna welcome you to this big community.
14:58.6
We are on tour dito sa Pilipinas,
15:02.1
and also we're headed to Toronto,
15:05.0
Dubai, and Australia.
15:06.5
Ngayon, tinatry talaga namin
15:08.1
to reach as many places as possible.
15:11.1
Salamat, Diwanag, for always sharing a piece of you with us
15:15.4
as we share a piece of us with you
15:17.6
in a non-cannibalistic way.
15:22.4
Thank you so much!
