Mapanakit ka.”“Ang sakit pero ang ganda,” one shared. Dela Torre has made a career of translating highly personal experiences into anthems that millions of people can readily relate to. From huge hits like &quot;Malaya,&quot; &quot;Tagpuan,&quot; and &quot;Paubaya&quot; to her most recent collaborations, she has evolved while remaining true to her unique storytelling style.Meanwhile, Danao&#x27;s music has served as the background music for wedding marches, prenuptial videos, and other personal milestones.
