[xavier]

[zxildjian]

[rednef]

[drummer_boy17]

lyric... lalo na yun mga catchy lyrics..

[daemonite]

If you're going to target the masses, Filipino lyrics that are catchy will sure to make you a hit....

Don't get too novelty though....

[Santo Muerte]

It's all about the riffs, baby.

[uno]

lyrics

[marzi]

music muna bago lyrics...

[van13]

it depends, kung intrument yun hilig mo,ano ba una mo mapapansin?

for example,dati bassist ako,bass kagad ang napapansin at bininigyan ko ng pansin..
ngayon gitara na...

nung napasok ako sa alternative band,tsaka ko nalaman na hindi pala madali gumawa ng lyrics...hahaha

[Jim Ayson]

Melody oriented.

[el dorko]

Melody oriented.

+1 melody muna before anything else

[khaffalmhoukz]

Lyrics... Naging successful E-heads, PNE, etc... di dahil sa "Wow... anggaling pa'no nila na-isip yung E-B-C#m-A chord? (habang nakikinig sa Magbalik ng Callalily... actually also the chord of Bakit Part 2, Lunod, Salamat by Yeng, Borrowed Time...)"... kundi dahil "[gooey brown stuff] may tama sa akin yung lyrics... nakakarelate ako..." [Dahil senti ang karamihan sa Noypi, pumapatok ang mga balladeers...]

[bookworm]

both lyric and melody oriented... yun ang effective listening ng music eh 

[coolvoice]

melody oriented... yan muna kasi ang nauunang matandaan at magustuhan ng mga listeners .. bago nila pinag-aaralan ang lyrics..

[rockyteer]

yes, the average pinoy listener is melody-oriented. They tend to go for simple, easy-to-remember, and repetitive melodies, thus, the proliferation of lito camo songs on the radio waves.

[BassCog]

...I think the pinoy listener simply loves a good hook, be it Lito Camo's "disposable" songs, or Razorback's "Payaso" riff.

[jeff_proX40]

Melody then lyrics. tas patok sa pinoy yung mga kantang pang pagibig.

[stilljey]

ang pinoy kung English song eh rythmn & beat talaga, but if tagalog ang song eh lyrics kasi mas appreciate nila ang tagalog.
