MANILA, Philippines - The music video of the Choose Philippines campaign, “Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas,” has gone viral, enjoying huge viewership on YouTube. The music video depicts the more than 7,000 islands in the country as well as the colorful fiesta celebrations and world-class travel destinations here.
Angeline Quinto and Vince Bueno sang the theme song of Choose Philippines, which was given an outstanding reinterpretation by “Pilipinas Got Talent” finalist El Gamma Penumbra.
Different versions
According to "TV Patrol," March 28, the music video has inspired several versions done by schools, dance and theater groups, one of which is Batangas State University’s adaptation that showcases Filipino culture to visiting Korean exchange students.
Another one features a choir from Mandaluyong City that even did a new musical arrangement for “Piliin Mo ang Pilipinas.”
In one video, a Filipino delegation in the 38th Ship for Southeast Asian Youth Programme 2011 performed the song. They even encouraged youth leaders from different Asian countries like Japan, Thailand and Cambodia to dance and sing with them to the tune of “Piliin Mo ang Pilipinas.”
The song started as a simple way of showcasing the beauty of the Philippines. But the theme song of "Choose Philippines" paved the way for Filipino youth to express their appreciation of our country, the report noted.
