Ligaya

"Ligaya" (English: "Joy") is a song by Filipino alternative rock band Eraserheads. It was released as their first promotional single from their debut album Ultraelectromagneticpop! (1993).

Music and lyrics

The song is described as "a quintessential anthem of youthful romance"^[1] while "perfectly capturing all the ins and outs of campus courtship".^[2] It features the lyric "Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo (I'll do anything, even your thesis)", which writer Ely Buendia later jokingly referenced in a tweet in 2016: "Eh sariling thesis ko nga di ko magawa-gawa sa’yo pa (I can't even do my own thesis, why should I do yours?)."^[3]
