Being of Filipino-American descent, I have a soft spot in my heart for the Asian culture. Therefore, I am more than obligated to share a song that has Asian roots. So, without further ado...

Here's a song I found not so recently by the Filipino band Hale.
Bahay Kubo (http://youtu.be/J4xwWyppvtA)

Released in July of 2009 on their fourth studio album, Kundiman, it was one of four singles on the album. It is a simple ballad of being with your loved one in a safe place.

Unfortunately, the band broke up in 2010 when the lead singer decided to pursue a solo career. Pretty sad really.
