It All Started In May Releases Second Single: “Pasado”

Following their explosive debut with "O' Kay Tamis," OPM sensation "It All Started In May” (IASIM) has gifted fans their second single, "Pasado," now available on all streaming platforms. This release comes just one month after their debut — a direct response to overwhelming demand from their rapidly growing fanbase, affectionately dubbed "Mayopets" — a clever fusion of the Filipino word for May, "Mayo," and "malupet," which means impressive or cool.

"Pasado" is about admiring someone from afar, wondering if they're out of your league, filled with the uncertainty of being able to meet their standards. The song lyrically asks questions such as, "Mali nga ba ang humanga sa isang katulad mo?" ("Is it wrong to admire someone like you?") while its catchy chorus reinforces this sentiment: "Coz’ it feels like you’re out of my league, out of my league, oh baby! Parang hindi pasado, pasado sa iyo!" (It feels like I can't pass your standards).

Dakota Johnson is on a mission for the perfect match as matchmaker Lucy in “Materialists”

Opens Aug 6 in PH cinemas

For Academy Award-nominated director Celine Song, her sophomore film Materialists lifts from a chapter in her life as a matchmaker in New York City. Song based her character Lucy around that career, and Materialists around modern dating culture. “She’s (Lucy) somebody who’s very clear about the fact that love really does baffle her, but she’s very good at the math of dating,” Song describes.

Song felt like there was an immediate connection when she met Dakota Johnson for the role. “We were having a meeting and the way that she is so vulnerable and so funny and sharp, I remember walking away from her thinking, she’s Lucy,” Song recalls.
