Eraserheads meets with Sen. Tito Sotto - Aug. 24, 1995

Eraserheads & their manager, Ann Angala, meet with Sen. Tito Sotto to formally submit their 'Letter of Statement' amidst the "Alapaap" controversy. The meeting was held at the Senate of the Philippines (at the Old Legislative Building) in Manila on August 24, 1995 Thursday. Also present were the band's label, BMG's representative and lawyers, members of the media & Senate staff. .......... The following is a transcript of the band's letter: 24 August 1995 Dear Senator Sotto: Greetings! We, the Eraserheads are forwarding this letter in the hope that whatever misinterpretation of our song entitled “Alapaap” will soon be cleared up. We have not forgotten, in fact we have taken to heart, our, responsibility to the public, especially the youth. Therefore, glorifying/promoting drug and substance abuse is not part of our goal, and is far from our imagination. We are 100% against it. In the press release of the Junior Drug Watchers, it states that, “The song ‘Alapaap’ does not mention drugs but it describes the sensation or ‘trip’ felt by someone on drugs.” Words could mean anything and could be interpreted to mean everything, and people certainly definitely differ with one another in interpretation. We are saddened by the fact that this song, “Alapaap”, which the band considers to be our “ode to freedom” as artists in our society, was dubbed as an “ode to drug abuse”, by the Junior Drug Watchers. But as artists we are willing subjects to different opinions of the public and our work subject to different interpretations. We believe in your judgment and we are more that sure that whatever action is to be done by good office will be beneficial to the public in general, and the youth in particular. Rest be assured that we will always be supportive of the campaign against drug abuse. Thank you very much for your time. Sincerely, Eraserheads (signed by all 4 members & their manager) ..........
