Between the Music and Me

I was at 3rd grade when I first learned to play the guitar. My father was my first teacher; he taught me how to wield it like a sword. It took me almost a month to completely memorize all the Major Chords, let alone the different stroke/strum patterns. My interest towards the six-stringed instrument started when I heard my father playing Ang Bayan Kong Sinilangan by Asin, a band famous for their significant influence during the political conflicts of their time. The rhythm of the song was just so alluring that I had to ask him to play it over and over again. Consequently, I begged him to teach me how to play it only to realize that at the end, Feliz Navidad was the first official song I learned.
