On the closing night of the National Youth Day celebration last Friday, Nov. 18, many guests performers were present to celebrate with the youth pilgrims all over the Philippines in Cuneta Astrodome.
Daryl Leong, the voice behind the NYD theme song entitled “Make A Stand”. He is currently part of the youth organization Youth for Christ sang the theme song for the celebration of the National Youth Day.
Leong, who hails from Cebu is also a demo singer for most of the compositions of Mr. Jude Gitamondoc, a composer and the composer of “Make A Stand”.
Leong shared his thoughts on the song “Make A Stand” and the National Youth day.
He said that the national youth day is the time when young people from different places gather and have fun.
“The celebration reminds ourselves that the youth has a duty for the country and this time is the best time to ponder about things, about HOW TO MAKE A STAND”, Leong said.
Leong also shared his thoughts about the pilgrims and on his performance.
“It was very emotional and you can see the youth, the delegates who are animating during the mass and they are really firm in their faith”, Leong shared.
An on his performance he said that he feels happy to perform when the audience feels the same way as he did.
Leong shared that his favorite part from the song, “Make a Stand” is the whole second stanza which is ‘stand firm, be a guiding light to the nation. Stand proud let’s unite in one celebration’, “because it’s very..meaningful (laughs)”.
“Believe in yourself and in everything you do, make sure that you have the guidance from up above”, Leongs’ message to the youth. (Ira Yu/Jandel Posion)
