Just Another Bland Blogger
Just want to share something:
The Coca-Cola jingle that we see on television came from a UK version. It is called "I Wish". (Thanks, Steph Wong! :D) According to the blog journals, it was shown last March of 2004 (so, sobrang tagal na pala nito!). It was a good song... It came from the song "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free", popularized by Nina Simone in 1967, composed by Richard Lamb and William Taylor.

Here is the lyrics of the song:
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break all the chains holding me
I wish I could say all the things that I should say
say 'em loud, say 'em clear
for the whole round world to hear.
I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart
remove all the bars that keep us apart
I wish that I could say all the things that I should say
say 'em loud, say 'em clear
for the whole round world to hear.
I wish I could give all I'm longing to give
I wish I could live like I'm longing to live
I wish that I could do all the things that I can do
though I'm way overdue I'd be starting anew.
I wish you could know what it means to be me
Then you'd see and agree
that every man should be free.
Well I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
how sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Oh I'd soar to the sun and look down at the sea
and I'd sing cos I'd know thatI'd know how it feels to be free
Sobrang ganda!
