Davao’s accomplished singer-songwriter, Joem, follows the success of his previous hit “Pangako” with the release of his latest soul-stirring single, “Nakaraan.” This poignant track is set to captivate audiences as it takes center stage in the much-anticipated comeback comedy film, “I Am Not Big Bird,” featuring Enrique Gil.
Having amassed nearly half a million streams for “Pangako,” Joem returns with an even more heart-rending composition in “Nakaraan,” unveiled on February 9. The timing aligns strategically, as “I Am Not Big Bird” hits theaters nationwide on Valentine’s Day, further amplifying the emotional resonance of Joem’s musical contribution to the film.
In the movie, Enrique Gil plays Luis, a 30-year-old virgin who is going through a breakup by traveling to Thailand, but finds himself unwittingly caught up in a case of mistaken identity. “I Am Not Big Bird” is poised to be a comedic piece, and joem’s “Nakaraan” lends a counterbalance, delivering a cathartic experience for the viewers.
“Nakaraan” captures the journey of Luis and the people who recently find themselves at the end of a relationship, more painfully, being the ones who had been left behind. It delves into the struggle to move forward when one’s heart remains anchored to the memories of a lost love. Its relatable theme makes it a poignant anthem for those still navigating broken relationships.
