“By now, alam niyo na na music lover talaga ako (you all know that I’m really a music lover); I have been for a long time. I studied music for many years. And to have somebody like Coldplay, unmissable dapat ‘yun, cannot miss,” said Marcos in an ambush interview.
The President called the show “fantastic.”
“Ask anybody who attended the concert. Ibang klase. Hindi na iyong concert na pinupuntahan namin dati. Ibang iba na,” said Marcos.
(Ask anybody who attended the concert. It was in a different class. Not like the other concerts we went to before. It is really different.)
