Title: BOOM TARAT TARAT ORIGINAL?
Post by: kedysanchez on February 16, 2007, 07:33:09 PM
What is this rumble I am hearing that there was a complaint lodged aginst the songwriter (s?) of the song BOOM TARAT TARAT , saying that they do not own the melody of the song?  It seems the melody of the chorus part (which happens to be the hook of the song) is  not original.

Some old people nga claim they have danced to this melody during their field demo days in elementary.

Any news?

Totoo ba ito? But then, talagang catchy at familiar ang melody, me copyright kaya ang claimant? :-)

I glanced at an episode of Wowowee while channel surfing & I saw an autistic person with his ward among the audience. He fit in perfectly.

Hey that's an ableist comment.

I think the real retards are those who are perfectly normal who dance to the effin' song.

Nung elementary pa ako. YUng Boom Tarat Tarat kinakanta na namin sa Boy Scout yun.

I can't understand why they are claiming it as an original song.

Eto ngayon ang bago - do do do da da da. Pano na kung marinig ni Sting yun?

Tsaka may mas lalala pa ba sa Pinoy Ako? Na obviously ninakaw sa Chandeliers?

Actually, I am trying to verify if the Boy Scouts of the Philippines really did press charges, claiming rights to the melody of the song.

Oo nga naman, lalo na't malaking binayad dun sa kanta ng isang "senatoriable"...

This is embarrassing.  To think na may follow up na si Bayani Agbayaning Taradying Potpot naman.  Pathetic.

Ah, but they do. Not only does the audience dance along but they also sing along to it & know the lyrics by heart. I want to cry...

yes i heard this somewhere from tom n jerry or some looney toons cartoon my son was watching about a month ago.  i did a double take and thought, "well, it figures".  those cartoons looked vintage, really.  maybe from the 60's or 70's. or earlier even.

If it is not too much to our forumites, baka naman may maipakita tayong proof nito or an affidavit from someone saying so.

The song is now even nominated at this year's AWIT AWARDS!

Nakakahiya naman kung talagang hindi ito original tapos bibiyan ng award ng music industry!

hindi yan original at oo totoong boy scout song yan.. kinakanta namin yan noong UNANG PANAHON PA hehehe.. kakahiya mang aminin na oldies ako pero mas nakakahiya yung sabihin nilang ORIGINAL yan. well actually hindi naman yun boom tarat tarat eh.. actually the song goes " boom tarat tat tat".. mangongopya lang sila mali pa lyrics ..pathetic.. :x.. naiinis na ako.. why dont we spend our energy creating songs na pang worldwide distribution??? pang barangay mentality lang na kaya natin??? i hear songs na gawa sa ibang bansa na me "accent " pa nga pero nakakapasok sa market dito sa US.. just to imagine ok namang mag pronounce ng ingles mga pinoy... lets work together.. imagine kung makapasok tayo sa US market?? that will mean recognition sa pinoy as a REAL MUSICIAN, better equipments at $$$ sa economiya ng bansa.. hmm ot na ba? sorry..

As jakejake mentioned, the first 11 or so notes come from an old english fox-hunting song (or nursery rhyme from Winnie the Pooh) that goes: "A-hunting we will go, a-hunting we will go... high-ho the merry-o a-hunting we will go..." binali lang nila ang second phrase but the similarity is there. I also remember a similar ditty when I was a boy scout.

Really... boom tarat doesn't deserve an award. It's just plain self-serving nonsense.

Post by: starfugger on July 23, 2007, 06:09:15 AM
anong category?  most popular inane song of the land to date?  e kung sa gayon, hindi na pwede kasi madami ng sumunod.  :roll:

ok lang naman kasi ang boom tarat tarat paminsan minsan.  but for the masses to gobble it up like that ,,, kakaawa naman ang pinoy, hindi na na-expose sa mas malalim na musika na tutulong sa kanilang mag-isip... musikang instrumento ng pag-babago. 

parang nakakamiss tuloy yung 70's na punong puno ng OPM na talaga namang hataw ang kalidad.  that was about the time they gave awards accordingly.

All I remember during my "early" grade school days, our teacher would ask the boys to chant BOOM while the girls TARAT, with actions pa 'to. Some kind of an ice breaker/ loosening up exercise.

Thanks for all the replies to the thread.  Unfortunately, ONE HAS YET TO SPECIFY the title of the old song which BOOM TARAT was copied from.  I heard about the complaint of Boy Scouts of the Philippines - but again they have yet to show which song it was lifted from.

Until the old song reappears - BOOM TARAT remains to be a good song with a great hook that sounds awfully similar to an old song but you can't quite point it out.  This is a good musical tool used by many good songwriters.  Which makes the Boom Tarat songwriter a genius of some sort.
