The Hidden Meaning of JBK of X Factor UK New Song "Anestisya" Revealed



Even before joining X Factor UK 2 years ago. JBK, made up of Josh Bulot, Bryan del Rosario, and Kim Ordonio, had already been selected to sing this new composition by Yman titled Anestisya. The singer-songwriter Yman is a friend of their former manager and that's how they met. This was a song from the youthful days of the composer and he chose to release it now. He asked the group to perform a demo and the rest was history.


"The song is about life. 'Pag may mga problema tayong malaki, sobra-sobra na yung problema, kailangan natin ng anestisya o pampamanhid," explained Josh, echoing the vision of the composer. The comments section of the official video reveals that some of the 260K+ people who viewed it actually compare some of the lyrics to Manok na Pula because the former talks about a "sabungero" and this one talks about a "laklakero" (at least that's what most think), because the chorus goes like this:

Nasaan na ang baso't yelo
Ibuhos yan dito
Gusto kong makalimot
Ano ba'ng pakialam mo

The trio expressed interest in collaborating with Kyline Alcantara, Julie Anne San Jose, and Golden CaƱedo in the future.

Yman, on the other hand, made a comeback in 2017 with Rain Song. He was last active in the 90s with Di Ako Marunong Kumanta, a 1996 Metro Pop Song Festival finalist, as well as Sa 'Yong Mundo.

Rider.ph Studios which produced the new song is mainly managed by Lester Ramos and started originally as an entertainment-focused Youtube account with almost 200,000 subscribers after just a 16 months. The full arrangement of the song can be found here or you can always search "JBK Official Lyric Video" on Youtube to find it easily. The song is available via streaming on Spotify and iTunes.
