We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together Feat. Marc Pingris
He was out, then he was in. He had no control, but it was pride and honor that prevailed. It must have been a tough and confusing month for Marc Pingris, one of the most important pieces of Gilas, but it looks like we are getting back together with the Pinoy Sakuragi. For now, at least.
KEY LYRIC:
We hadn’t seen each other in a month/ When you said you needed space
Then you come around again and say/ “Baby, I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change, trust me.”
Remember how that lasted for a day? /I say, “I hate you,” we break up, you call me, “I love you.”

Blank Space Feat. Jordan Clarkson
A guard playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, a former center of the Brooklyn Nets, the best PG in Asia, a Pinoy Rasheed Wallace, and Terrence Romeo. If things go our way, this could be a lineup we will be fielding for the FIBA Asia Championship. We got a blank space, Jordan, can we write your name?
KEY LYRIC:
Love’s a game, wanna play/ New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine/ Ain’t it funny rumors fly
And I know you heard about me /So hey, let’s be friends
I’m dying to see how this one ends/ Grab your passport and my hand
Bad Blood Feat. Politics Injuries
No Junemar Fajardo. No Japeth Aguilar. No Marcio Lassiter. No LA Tenorio. No Paul Lee. No Jeff Chan. There’s no better way of putting it: injuries–and other things filed under #DiNatinControl–suck.
KEY LYRIC:
Now we got problems/ And I don’t think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut/ And, baby, now we got bad blood
Did you have to do this?/ I was thinking that you could be trusted
Did you have to ruin what was shiny?/ Now it’s all rusted
I Knew You Were Trouble Feat. Chot Reyes
We mean this in the best way possible. That image of Chot Reyes sitting on the bench, in tears, basking in the glow of ending the South Korea curse is forever etched in Philippine basketball history. The feeling from that moment in 2013 was so surreal that it placed insurmountable pressure to future Gilas iterations. Think about it, how will we ever recover from that historic silver medal finish? The lyrics say it all.
KEY LYRIC:
It’s like a kaleidoscope of memories/ It just all comes back but he never does
I think part of me knew the second I saw him that this would happen
It’s not really anything he said or anything he did/ It was the feeling that came along with it
And the crazy thing is I don’t know if I’m ever gonna feel that way again

Shake It Off Feat. Everyone
How will Gilaserye end? Hopefully, not with a Taylor Swift song, but with cheers for whoever is wearing the Pilipinas jersey. Laban Pilipinas!
KEY LYRIC:
‘Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
