Jackal Virgin). The album contains 14 politically charged songs, in the manner of Gary Granada, Juan de la Cruz Band, and Yano, and which can be both appreciated by regular folks who frequent neighborhood eateries; hence, the use of the word panciteria (noodle place). The songs cover various genres, from ska, rock, to rap music, but contain subjects rooted in social realities, such as the call center lifestyle, national elections, and the failed promises of government officials (Groupies’ Panciteria 2009).Album cover of song collections with folk influences by Groupies Panciteria, 2005 (Bananakyu Repablik)“Binola, Ni-Rape, Minarder (The Apparition, sa Katolikong Bansa ng Ating Jackal Virgin)” (Fooled, Raped, Murdered [The Apparition, in the Catholic Country of Our Jackal Virgin]) is about the gruesome assault of a bar dancer whose body is later found by the river. “Cebuano Indios Attack at Dawn Magellan’s Estero” is a commentary on the Cebuano tourism industry. “This Is My Blood (Waray Waltz)” describes the drinking session of locals in an impoverished Waray town (Groupies’ Panciteria 2009).In 2013, the Artists and Musicians Marketing Cooperative (Artist Ko) held a songwriting contest promoting Cebuano popular music (Taguchi 2013). The songs that came out of the Visayan Pop Songwriting Campaign eventually became hits in Cebuano radio stations, the video-sharing platform YouTube, and the audio-streaming companies such as Spotify and SoundCloud.One of the most recognized VisPop (Visayan pop) songs is Jewel Villaflores’s grand prize winner “Duyog” (Accompaniment). The song’s lyricism is influenced by contemporary Cebuano poetry. Another VisPop song is the playful “Papictura Ko Nimu, Gwapo” (Let Me Have a Photo with You, Handsome) by Marie Maureen Salvaleon. The male is the object of affection by the female as she asks for a picture with him, which she plans to upload to social network sites. Lourdes May Maglinte’s “Laylay” (Lullaby) has the quality of a nursing song, but it can also be sung as a love song. Another VisPop radio hit is Marianne Dungog and Kyle Wong’s “Balay ni Mayang” (Mayang’s House). “Balay ni Mayang” features the conversation of male and female singers. The woman is inviting the man to visit her at her house. These modern pop songs sound like traditional folk songs: “Balay ni Miyang” recalls the balitaw, and “Papictura Ko Nimo, Gwapo,” the humorous courtship song.In the age of the Internet, many traditional songs are shared on various platforms, particularly on YouTube, making them accessible not only to those who are in the communities from which songs are created, but also to listeners from different parts of the Philippines and in other countries. In turn, the Internet has widened the audience of the folk song and extended its chances of surviving.One example is the Sama Dilaut pakiring pakiring, which is popularly known as the song “Dayang Dayang.” “Dayang Dayang” first became a hit nationwide when it was played on the radio in the late 1990s. Pariking pakiring refers to the dance movements, but “Dayang Dayang” became the title of the song in its commercialized form (Jubilado 2010, 99). Today,
