Comment's late but thank you lots for this reaction!!! I'm a fan of the group so really appreciate this... Love the silent replay to the part where there's the silhouette of the Aswang with long tongue... HAHAHA. You were like WHAT DID I JUST SEE? Subbed! ^^
Thanks for reacting to this MV. And I like how you interpret the song. I never thought of that coz in my interpretation is that, these boys will give everything to a girl they love whoever or whatever she is.
That's a smart reading on the metaphor of getting "devoured" by a toxic relationship. Thanks for the ALAMAT reaction. Pronunciation wise: The emphasis is on the last syllable alaMAT (legend). saLAmat (thank you) has the emphasis/stress in the second syllable.
The MV gave you an introduction to the Ph folklore monster, Aswang. A creature known to eat babies & people through their tongues (as shown in the video). The song has a double meaning. 1st speaks of the the literal description/ lore of an Aswang, the 2nd is whatever that comes to mind. If you are able to listen to "Gayuma" from their EP Pasulong, even w/o subtitles, the english lyrics there will confirm everything 😅
You mean manananggal, the one with half body, eats babies using their long tongue. Aswang is a general term for monsters not just an baby-eating creature. Not all are long-tongued but definitely has the human figures that can blend with the crowd to hide. Not all aswangs are bad, some are just unfortunate like naturally born as one, cursed, or infected from the attacks.
Perfect for Halloween.🎃 Great vocals. Someone who gets the wrong partner can or even will turn into a monster when they hurt them, even to the point of hating an entire gender because of what one person did to them.

don't know if u know this, but alamat sings in different languages! most of the members (except mo) speak a different philippine language as their first language. the philippines has 100+ native languages. but this song was in tagalog. there are multilingual songs in the album tho. aswang is a vampire-like mythological creature originating from the visayas region of the philippines (where r-ji hails, and where alas' ancestry traces to, even though he's from mindanao). but it's a popular bit of folklore throughout all of the philippines now.
I learned about the folklore of Aswang after I reacted to the video this morning. I have reacted to past videos that showed the different languages the fellas were singing in. Very awesome that there are so many Filipino languages and dialects.
Thank you! Alamat (ah-lah-MAT) pushed boundaries here with the subject of the song. Aswang is really a monster, almost like a vampire except they use their tongues to suck blood instead of fangs. Perfect song for Halloween IMO. Cheering for your changes in pronunciation. Loving it and super appreciate the effort. 💙
So, basically, this is an erotic song. It's about love and sex, mostly sex. But since there wasn't any erotic scenes in the MV and explicit languages in the lyrics, people might prefer to call it sensual rather than erotic. I just take it for what it is. Having said that, this is the best track Alamat has released to date (not in terms of artistry but in terms of mainstream music). It's catchy, poppy, relevant, and vibe-y. Definitely a great disco and house music.
Thanks for reacting.. Looks like you have sore eyes. I live in the province and here everyone almost have an encounter with one (aswang) They are human by day and monster at night. They are strongest at midnight. My grandmother's ancestor is known to be one.. Thankfully it didn't get passed on to us because an aswang wouldn't die unless they pass the curse to their descendant. I remember I read a story online about American tourists who had creepy experiences that even until now they said they were traumatized (coincidentally it's in my province)
Aswang is a Philippine mythical creature known to every Filipinos. They have a variety of different sub-species, among them are Manananggal, Tiktik, and Wakwak which are very famous. They are described to be shapeshifting vampiric-ghouls who eats human flesh and organs especially the heart. There are sub-species which are also known to have a long tongue to enter the holes on someone's roof to feed on babies while they are inside the mother's womb. Some sub-specie of the Aswang have bat-like wings, some can shapeshift into an abnormal-sized black dog, boar, or bat, there is a sub-specie which is described to have the torso of a man but a head of a horse, and there is a sub-specie that pretends to be a harmless baby but transforms into a monster and eats you while you let your guard down. Welcome to the Philippines' mythical creatures!
More like vampires. Your underlying comment is spot on!! Yup that is exactly what they are warning though it is also about the Aswang mythical creature. Philippino concept on the vampire monsters.
Love how you were vibin the song, sir! I was lmao on your shocked face after seeing the long tongue of the aswang 😂 thank you for reacting to ALAMAT’s new MV! Fun fact: the fits they’re wearing in the end is called “barong”, PH’s national attire. Always so proud of how these boys promote PH culture in all their crafts 🤎
“What in the possessed was that?” 😂😂😂😂 if I’m not mistaken, Aswang is a mythical creature that’s known to suck fetuses out of a pregnant woman’s womb, and prey on the weak or vulnerable.
aswang is not witch is a filipino vampire. there has different kind of aswang in the philippines it called manananggal. which is human in day time and turn monster at night. and the body seperating . from waist to feet is hidden and other half is flying... looking for a pregnant , baby or sick person. and the tongue can get longer to get the tummy of pregnant. and can bite human because very thirsty of blood. the other kind of aswang is called " tikbalang" which mean half human half animal. from head to waist is human.. and the rest is horse.
Fun fact: Aswang was actually referenced on SB19's Mana. The lyric goes "Aswang ba kaya kinatatakutan?" Which can be translated "Are we monsters that you fear?". Aswang in both song means the same, a monstrous person in something, in love and in performance respectively.
Who would have thought there'd be a music video about Aswang. Thank you King Fam for supporting PPop and hope to run into y'all in NYC next week.
I think it's a Metaphor.. a nice good Metaphor...
“You calm your crazy ass down there, woman” 🤣🤣😂😂
Comment's late but thank you lots for this reaction!!! I'm a fan of the group so really appreciate this... Love the silent replay to the part where there's the silhouette of the Aswang with long tongue... HAHAHA. You were like WHAT DID I JUST SEE? Subbed! ^^
Reminds me a lot of THRILLER by MJackson too!

Like your way of reacting, really going into the artistic side and interpretation of the whole production.👐
Thank you so much
"Aswang" literal meaning I think is closer to ghouls than witches
i like his reaction "tongue of the woman" and thats really aswang . filipino vampire

I like your insight on the song.. and I agree it means that if you let yourself to be devoured with anger, negativity you will become Aswang...

I like the " aswang, I swing! 😂
"Aswang dont come at me I'll swing you"😂
I agree with your explanation to the song. The choreography is amazing and so are the vocals! Love you for reacting thanks so much🤎

Aswang is one of Filipino folklore creature. It's similar to Manananggal (Mana by SB19), a human-eating monster/creature.

You used the right cup. They are ALAMAT which also means legend. Thanks for the reaction. 🤎
I lol at his reaction on the girl's tongue.
You see that thing????? 👀
The Girl in the MV is Fatima of Ppop Girl Group LITZ. LITZ is a sister group of ALAMAT if you don't know about them and you haven't react to them.
Thank you for the info. I will definitely start reacting to them :)
Thanks for reacting to ALAMAT's Aswang MV! Much appreciated! I love how you interpreted the meaning of the song! It's so on point!
Thanks for reacting.. Looks like you have sore eyes.
I live in the province and here everyone almost have an encounter with one (aswang)
They are human by day and monster at night. They are strongest at midnight.
My grandmother's ancestor is known to be one.. Thankfully it didn't get passed on to us because an aswang wouldn't die unless they pass the curse to their descendant.
I remember I read a story online about American tourists who had creepy experiences that even until now they said they were traumatized (coincidentally it's in my province)

Love how you were vibin the song, sir! I was lmao on your shocked face after seeing the long tongue of the aswang 😂 thank you for reacting to ALAMAT’s new MV! Fun fact: the fits they’re wearing in the end is called “barong”, PH’s national attire. Always so proud of how these boys promote PH culture in all their crafts 🤎
Aswang is actually closer to vampire mixed with ghoul.
Yes the song has double meaning 🤭
Thank you for reacting to ALAMAT's new song sir.💕💕
I would like to suggest reacting to their "ILY ILY" it is a lullaby remake
Thankyouu for the reaction
“What in the possessed was that?” 😂😂😂😂 if I’m not mistaken, Aswang is a mythical creature that’s known to suck fetuses out of a pregnant woman’s womb, and prey on the weak or vulnerable.
Beware of ASWANG. They'll eat 'ya 🤣😰
He was vibin so hard but then he saw this 5:23 I was dying here 🤣
Aswangs are monsters. More like skinwalkers and werewolves than witches
aswang is not witch is a filipino vampire. there has different kind of aswang in the philippines it called manananggal. which is human in day time and turn monster at night. and the body seperating . from waist to feet is hidden and other half is flying... looking for a pregnant , baby or sick person. and the tongue can get longer to get the tummy of pregnant. and can bite human because very thirsty of blood. the other kind of aswang is called " tikbalang" which mean half human half animal. from head to waist is human.. and the rest is horse.
FIRST MENNNNNN
Aswang can be comparable to vampire .
Maraming uri ng aswang sa pilipinas pero yung mas nakakatakot yung nang aaswang ng asawa 🤣
Fun fact: Aswang was actually referenced on SB19's Mana. The lyric goes "Aswang ba kaya kinatatakutan?" Which can be translated "Are we monsters that you fear?". Aswang in both song means the same, a monstrous person in something, in love and in performance respectively.
Please react to maharani. It’s a really good one.
Yeah you pronounced "alamat" correctly
