Jose Mari Chan memes were all over Twitter ahead of September

On the eve of September, Jose Mari Chan trended on Twitter as Filipino netizens anticipate the coming of the Christmas season.

Thousands of excited Filipino netizens tweeted Jose Mari Chan memes making the iconic singer-songwriter among the trending topics on Twitter Monday afternoon. 

In a previous interview, Jose Mari Chan said memes make him feel young.

“I’m flattered, I’m complimented, and I feel rewarded that after 30 years, the song that I wrote ‘Christmas In Our Hearts’ is still loved and sung by people year after year,” he told "24 Oras."

Chan's hit Christmas song "Christmas in Our Hearts" is often played in malls, restaurants, parties, shops, and other public areas during the holiday season — and often beginning September 1.

But on Facebook, planner maker Tita Witty put in consideration our COVID-19 situation and came up with arguably the best meme yet.

Last year, the singer revealed his favorite meme of all time: "one of NASA, where they were trying to listen to the sound of the sun. That's the most clever and funniest," he said back then.  

In the Philippines, Filipinos begin preparing for Christmas as soon as the -Ber months start rolling in.

According to Professor Jimuel Naval, a cultural analyst and historian, “siguro sa buong mundo tayo yung pinakamahabang selebrasyon ng Pasko.” — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
