Bulaklak Sa Buwan
"Bulaklak Sa Buwan" () is a song by Filipino musician Ely Buendia from his second solo album ''Method Adaptor''. It was released as a single on August 16, 2024, with an accompanying music video. Composition Written by Buendia, the song is about misinformation and propaganda. "I've been watching documentaries a lot, and I tried to distill everything in one song," Buendia explained. He also stated that the song is open to interpretation. “I made sure it doesn’t sound like ‘this is what I feel should be what the world is.’ It's not fact," he continued. "I wanted to make people kind of also think about the song they’re listening to… hatthere’s participation on their part.” The title came from a book on misinformation that Buendia had read, which contained a passage on “stuff being as rare as a flower from Mars”. He changed Mars to the moon (“buwan”) “because it sounded nicer to the ears,” he explained. Produced by Buendia's longtime collaborator Jerome Ve ...

4 (four) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 3 and preceding 5. It is a square number, the smallest semiprime and composite number, and is considered unlucky in many East Asian cultures. Evolution of the Hindu-Arabic digit Brahmic numerals represented 1, 2, and 3 with as many lines. 4 was simplified by joining its four lines into a cross that looks like the modern plus sign. The Shunga would add a horizontal line on top of the digit, and the Kshatrapa and Pallava evolved the digit to a point where the speed of writing was a secondary concern. The Arabs' 4 still had the early concept of the cross, but for the sake of efficiency, was made in one stroke by connecting the "western" end to the "northern" end; the "eastern" end was finished off with a curve. The Europeans dropped the finishing curve and gradually made the digit less cursive, ending up with a digit very close to the original Brahmin cross. While the shape of the character fo ...

Wish 107
