A number of different version of Renaldo Lapuz’s (not Reynaldo) original classic composition of “We’re Brothers Forever” sprung up on YouTube days after the audition aired on American Idol. I came up with these two video clips of the song I stumble upon watching numerous rendition on YouTube. If you still don’t know about Renaldo and you’re living under a rock for the past weeks then you must first watch this video audition clip below from American Idol.

I admit the song is very catchy and listening to the song made some of the lyrics stuck in my mind over and over again. I am proud as a Filipino that our kababayan made it to fame on American television. He didn’t make it to Hollywood but at least his charms and wit made an impression on the judges mainly Simon Cowell. He had the chance to sing to the whole world, delivering his message that “We are all brothers forever!”.

The two clips below are the acoustic version of “We’re Brothers Forever”, one in guitar and the other played on piano.

We’re Brothers Forever version played by Elliot Bronson

He reminded me of Marie Digby, one of those artists who popularized their versions of Rihanna’s Umbrella. Same thing in this video, acoustic guitar.

I Am Your Sister by Alina

Alina changed the title to “I am your sister” because it is weird for her to sing “I am your brother” isn’t it?!
