Ely Buendia 'takes back' his promise from Eraserheads' Ligaya
"Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo," sang the Eraserheads in 1993.
The line was a lyric of its hit song "Ligaya," the first single from the band's seminal debut album "ultraelectromagneticpop."
But Ely Buendia, the band's lead vocalist and songwriter, caused a stir with a cheeky comment about the line recently.
"Eh sariling thesis ko nga di ko magawa-gawa sa’yo pa," he posted in his Twitter account on Friday.
Eh sariling thesis ko nga di ko magawa-gawa sa’yo pa.

However, many fans were also hurt and let down by the tweet, prompting Ely to apologize.
Anyway, to the fans I hurt, I’m sorry. Good night everyone.

But the singer maintained that it was just a joke, and that it was his song anyway.
Number 1 requirement for an Eheads fan: a sense of humor.
