Bakit - Imelda Papin - Guitar instrumental by Dave Monk
Of all the countries in the world, the country that watches my videos the most is the Philippines.
In fact I have more views from them than from the USA and the UK combined.
I find this amazing, and I am very grateful. Thank you very much.
So, as a big THANK YOU to all my Filipino listeners, I have recorded this lovely song called Bakit (Why) that was recorded by Imelda Papin in 1978, and became a big hit.
I hope you like it. Dave
