• Celebrity couple KZ Tandingan and TJ Monterde have released two Visayan songs which they wrote for each other, August 3, Tuesday.

  The titles of the songs are ‘Dodong’ and ‘Inday.’ The two terms are terms of endearment in the Visayas. ‘Dodong,’ which means young man, and ‘Inday,’ which means young girl.

  Tandingan admitted that she had composed ‘Dodong’ in 2019, months before she got engaged with Monterde. “Ang ‘Dodong’ ay kanta ng pagpapasalamat. …Nagpasalamat ako sa dulong-dulo parang sinabi ko sa kanya na salamat at nandito ka pa rin at imbes na lumuwag ang hawak mo ay mas humigpit pa ang hawak mo kasi ngayon ay mag-a-I do na tayo,” she said.

  Monterde explained that his song ‘Inday’ is all about reassurance. “Para ma-reassure siya talaga na huwag ka mag-alala nandito lang ako at sa ‘yo lang ako. That’s the story of the song,” Monterde said.

  The music video of ‘Dodong’ and ‘Inday’ will be released on Sunday, August 7.
