you're not the only one brother, i had goosebumps watching the video as well, what a great tribute, never thought i'd see tito, vic andjoey get so emotional, specially bossing, he had to compose himself while singing and after. tama si bossing, maraming salamat sa lahat ng kapuso, at maramingsalamat sa lahat ng kapamilya, para kay franicis magalaona, iisa lang ang tawag sa atin, tayo ay filipino!
