Be ready to get your groove on and vibe to “M.K.S.” — the cool new disco single of Cebu-based singer-songwriter Will Mikhael. “M.K.S.” — abbreviated from Mahal Kita Sinta — is a funky disco track that can make anyone want to dance. It has all the right ingredients: the bouncy electric drum kit, the percussive instruments, the exhilarating electronic rhythm-guitar, the fun and energetic string riffs. While the instrumental itself can make one dance uncontrollably, the songwriting interestingly showcases a more tender side of the track. “M.K.S.” is a love confession dressed up as a dance song, with verses that reinforce the feeling of not being able to tell someone that you like them. And that M.K.S. part? Very, very catchy, in a Village People and Hagibis kind of way.
The song is both modern and nostalgic, introducing the disco-funk vibe to younger audiences and providing nostalgia to those that grew up with the genre. With such a fun track, we can only be excited for what else this promising Cebuano talent can come up with.
M.K.S. by Will Mikhael
Love has always been just bad omen
How do I take my chances?
Cause I’ve been let down girl I’ve been hurting
How do I come to my senses?
I’m playing with this fire (Tryna be a lover)
I’m trying my best to love ya baby but I can’t stop contemplating bout’ this fire
(Tryna be a lover)
How can I go on?
To tell you that (M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta
And that (A.K.S)
Aalagaan kita sinta
Tell you that (M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta pero puso ko’y nahihirapan
Ba’t pa ba umiibig ng ganto
How do I love ya?
I’m crumbling I’m losing my mind
Paano ko ibigay (Ang nararapat sa iyo)
Baby gusto ko lang maging sapat pangakong magiging tapat ako sayo
I’m playing with this fire (tryna be a lover)
Gusto ko lang maging handa para sa’yo
How do I hold this fire? (Tryna be a lover)
Paano ba to?
To tell you that (M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta
And that (A.K.S)
Aalagaan kita sinta
Tell you that (M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta pero puso ko’y nahihirapan
Ba’t pa ba umiibig ng ganto
(Oh mahal kita)
I just wanna love you good now
(Oh mahal kita)
Oh I just wanna treat you good now
(Oh mahal kita)
I just wanna love you good now
(Oh mahal kita)
Oh baby how do I tell you that
(M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta
And that (A.K.S)
Aalagaan kita sinta
Tell you that (M.K.S)
Mahal kita sinta pero puso ko’y nahihirapan
Ba’t pa ba umiibig ng ganto
