Ana Ng is about a man daydreaming about the infinitesimally small possibility of him meeting a woman who lives on the other side of the world.
"She's an Angel" is about a man meeting a woman under such impossible circumstances that he can only describe them in terms of divine intervention.
And most convincingly, Ana's name is actually embedded into the song title "She's an angel"
Thoughts??
I'm into finding what my favourite songs are before they are finalised and I cannot find the demo Realase of Ana Ng by They might be giants, I have found most TMBG demos though, I cannot find any THE THE demo songs either.
Hey folks. The YouTube channel which takes segments from our podcast is up and running. Hope you enjoy the new format and the slideshow pics and stuff!
Part 1: https://youtu.be/vtrcMZNmncQ
i saw in an interview that will's previous band (?) did a cover of ana ng (unrelated to cute thing). does anyone have a link to it? i love the song and id love to see him perform it lol
(its from here btw https://www.loudandquiet.com/interview/car-seat-headrest-cover-story-will-toledos-12-album-overnight-success-story/ "Toledo’s ‘Pyramid Song’ cover received over 38,000 plays on Tumblr. By comparison, his teenage band’s cover of ‘Ana Ng’ has yet to break 500")
Me and Dave's next episode of our podcast is finally up! This one was a "labor of love" as they say...The next few will be labor's of hate!
We had planned a two-parter for Lincoln like we did the first album, but it's going to be a three-parter because we got "stuck" (in a good way!) on Ana Ng for a solid hour! This episode is also the most documentarian-like as I spent weeks organizing clips of the '64 World's Fair to try to weave together an elaborate tapestry of the song and that event. Hope you guys enjoy the fruits of my labor...of love!

Naay casual na paagi sa pag-ingo'g "nahigugma ko nimo"?

Thanks everyone! Hope you like it.
This is a word order question. Which of the above is correct/more natural?
(I know another way of saying something similar is "Nagbigay ako ng singsing kay Ana", but I really do intend to use binigyan here, as I am emphasizing Ana)
I️ was singing this song at the top of my lungs 20 years ago. It evoked hope and joy for new relationships.
It’s 520 I’m 45 now and it’s wistful and a little heart breaking now.
