<p>When Ice Seguerra first released one of OPM’s most beautifully performed heart-wrenching songs, &quot;Pagdating ng Panahon,&quot; in 2001, he never imagined that it would reach iconic and timeless status. The 42-year-old singer and songwriter shared his thoughts on the song’s 25th anniversary this year in his Instagram post last April 19. </p><div><br/></div><p>Ice wrote, “I remember listening to this song the first time siya lumabas sa radyo, 25 years ago. Gumagawa ako ng homework and when I heard the intro, dali-dali ako bumaba para tawagin sina Mama and Daddy para sabay-sabay namin mapakinggan. I never thought this one song would bring me to where I am now. Na after 25 years, yung pagmamahal ng mga tao sa awiting ito ay dadalhin ako sa iba’t ibang entablado sa iba’t ibang bahagi ng mundo.”</p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-13" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DXUg0jkgZiS/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=607&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A13%2C%22os%22%3A13870963.5%2C%22ls%22%3A1150139.800000012%2C%22le%22%3A1150156.3999999762%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1194" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-13" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2026/2/26/ice-seguerra-on-why-he-created-fire-ice-studios-it-became-a-home-for-artists-we-admire-1102" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>READ: Ice Seguerra on why he created Fire &amp; Ice Studios: ‘It became a home for artists we admire’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>Last month, Ice and his wife Liza Dino-Seguerra’s Fire &amp; Ice Music and Vicor Music collaborated on a new partnership, which created  fresh production of the track for its 25th anniversary.</p><div><br/></div><p>Before ending his post, Ice thanked the people behind the song, who created the beautiful composition specifically for him, after watching one of his performances live in a humble little bar in Cubao. </p><div><br/></div><p>“I want to thank our lyricist, Tita Edith Gallardo, and our composer, Moy Ortiz, for this beautiful song.
