TOM SPINOSA: "The melody of "Dahil Sa Iyo" was originally written by Mike's father in 1936 in the Philippine Islands at the Manila Hotel where we met on one of my voyages to Manila. We were discussing it way back then. I was the orchestra leader on the USS President Lincoln. So I got acquainted with his father very well but it wasn't until 1949 that I actually wrote the English lyrics to it and made the deal with Mike. When I met Mike Jr. at the Jai-Alai night club in Manila in 1946, Mike did not have the song, but when we met again in May of 1949 he told me his father had given the song to him and I wrote the English lyrics to it.
The agreement I had with Mike was that I would take the tune to the U.S. and try to do something with it, whether through my publishing company or someone else's, and if I succeeded placing it we would divide the composers rights between us.
For the last 15 years I've been plugging it by handing out copies to Singers and Orchestra leaders throughout the world. This was possible due to my frequent travels abroad. I have a recording session scheduled on it with Tri-World Records of San Francisco."

@@samcabrera2316 you sound like someone who smells their own farts to get in touch with their inner self.
My mother's favorite song. Shortly before she died she sang this song. I tear up when I hear this song. I miss her so much.
My grandma’s song to my grandpa 😢 she would walk around singing this all the time after he passed away ❤
Im not a Filipino; i'm Dutch, but i do live in the Philippines and even i am proud and touched by the beauty of the melody
Hello sir.. thank you ❤
This beautiful Filipino classic holds a very special place in my heart...for it brings back many fond memories of my childhood in the Philippines were I was born...it's a song that's in my veins, it shall live on forever...I'm proud of my Filipino roots and heritage, and I'm grateful to have heard this beautiful song in its original English/Tagalog version...♥
I got a portrait tattoo of my grandmother. And this beautiful song randomly comes on in the tattoo shop. My grandmother is full Filipino.
Maraming salamat. Thank you so much. Love from Filipino lady in Downey City, California😊💖😇🎶🎶🎶
We have beautitful Filipino LOVE SONGS!! It's a pity that the younger generation does not appreciate real music.
The most beautiful song ever written!!!
I absolutely love this version. There are so many renditions of this love song, Nat King Cole, The Lettermen, Pilita Corrales, and many, many others. There's even a version in acapella. I had this exact copy on a 45 RPM back in the 60's but now lost.
Thank you for posting this-Marame Salamat Po-Mabuhay Kayo!
Know this song "Dahil Sa yo" when I was 16yrs old perform this song in orchestra. Catchy and sweet melody....... Thank you efforts for the song writer.
Dahil sa iyo, nais kong mabuhay
Dahil sa iyo, hanggang mamatay
Dapat mong tantuin, wala nang ibang giliw
Puso ko'y tanungin, ikaw at ikaw rin
Dahil sa iyo, ako'y lumigaya
Pagmamahal, ay alayan ka
Kung tunay man ako ay alipinin mo
Ang lahat ng ito'y, dahil sa iyo
Kung tunay man ako ay alipinin mo
Ang lahat sa buhay ko'y, dahil sa iyo

I really love this song.
My late husband's favourite and became our theme song. Always playing in sweet n loving memory of My Dear Don. ❤
Aaaahhh, how wonderful to hear that and what a beautiful story about you and your late husband. I got a new boyfriend after losing my beloved husband in 2020, and he likes music, so, we joke around about "our song" and we've already got a list going, and I want this song to be one of them. LOL!!
Beautiful Filipino love song. A classic kundiman. I remember watching Rogelio De La Rosa singing this song in the 1938 movie "Bituing Marikit" on channel 7's Sine Siete.
I'm 20 years old and far from even thinking about marriage but if I ever get married I'm going to have this song played at my wedding.
Kamusta naman kinasal kana ba?
Thank you for real classic filipino music😊
this makes me proud the be Filipino :)

(DAHIL SA IYO) That's my favorite song. Ang pagmamahal ko ay hangang kamatayan. I love to sing that at my karaoke. Tunay na pagibig.
Absolutely love this song
Whenever I meet this song, I miss my best friend 'Lode' and her friend 'Matinez'.
At last I occurred to meet this song in CZcams today!
Very very happy!
I have stayed in Makati, Philippines during 1976~1978.
I never forget the warm and beloved Philippinos!
After corona, I wish to sing this song with my friends at Karaoke :)

Miss Nicole Xi, don't you know that this song is an original Filipino music and was written in 1936? From then on various well known artist like Nat King Cole and The Letterman appreciated and sang it, it became popular all over the world that they translated it from Tagalog (Filipino) into different languages including chinese.
Forgive my being insolent but i can't simply accept your comment
+Margie Uy Amorsolo It's an honest mistake. There are people outside the country that knows this song. Some even think it's a hawaiian song. Kaibiganin na lang natin ang ibang tao sa ibang bansa at i-explain natin ng maayos, amicably, cordially and nicely para hindi ma epektohan ng negatibo ang promtion ng ating kanta sa ibang nationality.
DeLaCruzer11 shut up douche
Wonderful!!!
Nanunuot sa kaluluwa

Haunting melodies!! Loveeeettt!!! =)

I was introduced to this song when I went for six months course in Quezon city Philippines in June to Dic 1985
Ang ganda nito sarap pakinggan
Thanks for posting the original song with English background.
First time to know the history of the song. Appreciated it much for the upload.
love it to bits....
Legend song made by legend singers
Was inspired by legend people.
so love the music and the beat.... so loved it , most specially my Z senior clients
Love this song so much.We practice this song for our Latin chorus group .
Love it!
@jimmymiata Oh WOW!that's awesome, you're a lucky man. I grew up in the uk, I didn't really learn that much tagalog, yet I've been listening to filipino music most of my life and practiced my culture of eating filipino food, going to barrio fiesta, etc. So I never understood the actual lyrics of this song, but I knew the "meaning" of the song. There's something about filipino music that transcends the barriers of language, and allows everyone to understand what is in the heart of the writer
ANG GANDA. O_O
@pumuputak pati ako naiyak coz of this song .... proud to be pinoy!!!
I love this song so muchh
Beautiful song.
Brilliant Mike Velarde for this song..really love it.Kaya lang sana ang original version filipino tapos saka lang nagkaroon ng translation sa english...anyways pinoy pa rin ang nag compose so proud pa rin po ako sa inyo.
I love this song... :)))
I wonder how one could even give a vote down for this video... This is but an amazing one... It makes me even prouder to be a Filipino :)))
Soo good music ♥️♥️♥️
Une mélodie dont je ne me lasserais jamais; à l'infini gravée en ma mémoire : BEAU
love it
Love this song.
I didn't know there's an English version of this song!
BRAVO
It’s crazy how my band director composed a version of this song for us in middle school. It was my favorite song to play on trumpet since French horn was the same note progression the whole song. But I would catch myself playing the melody on horn regardless 😂
ate shirley, remember kuya tom's singing dahil sa yo...regards from nanay liza
Yes , because a child can sing a song about love that he absolutely knows nothing about at that age.
Please.
Love this song
Dahil Saiyo... LOVE OVE VE E....
Because of you
There's a joy in living
Because of you
Life is heavenly
I never lived before
Never thought a single thrill before
My heart stood still before
Darling I'm in ecstasy
Because of you
Love is sweet and tender
And this my love
I will offer you
If you will care for me
All things for you I'll be
My heart is ever true
Because of you
Love to hear this song.
Beautiful. Overwhelming. Chicken Skin.
Still my favourite song xx
woo!!!
hayaan nyo nalang kung mali ang akala nila at magugulat na lang sila kapag nalaman nila na mali pa sila.
never heard this song in english before, but I always knew it to be one of the most beautiful love songs on earth. After listening to this version just now, I was struck by how explicit this song is! hehe.. ."my heart stood still before, darling I'm in extasy..."
Maybe this song should come with a xxx rating...then again, maybe not.
Awesome song!
dahil sayow~~~
OMG this is so American era....way back in the philippines
1:16 that was the beautiful First Lady Imelda Marcos, she also had a version of this song “Dahil Sayo” in 1989.
Magnanakaw na demonyang imelda ba
wow! it's like beatle's version he he
❤️❤️
best song ever, enjoy when this is on screen again
This is an amazing share of a true classic. Thank you!
Hi,
I absolutely love this song. Reminds me of my Great Grandmother, she truly loved this song, as it was quite popular during her time. Where can I find a copy of this? I've checked iTunes, and other sites online, but haven't had any luck.
Thanks.
Because of you..... Spotify doesn’t add the song.
@010bobby He only had a few days, if that, and he didn't even know the song by heart when he sang it, so he sang it off the sheet music, and he did the most awesome and impressive rendition of this song ever! No one can beat his performance of this song at the araneta colliseum back in the 60's. You can find the link here on youtube, just type dahil sa iyo, nat king cole in the search bar, and you will find it.
@jimmymiata There are many different versions of this song, sung by some of the greatest musicians in the world, but in my opinion, nat king cole gives the best rendition. He sang it live at the areneta colliseum in manila, and read the lyrics from the music sheet, but somehow, he really captures the essence and gravity of the song. Hope you like it!
I like his version, but I will have to respectfully disagree and say The Lettermen's version is the best. :)
@vlife52 wow! im crying right now.... im suprised !!!
ᜇᜑᜒᜎ᜔ ᜐᜌᜓ
Because of You
