francis magalona was an icon of my generation. i was in highschool when "mga kababayan" was first aired.he amplified what many in my generation felt about ourselves, our society. he was idolized, i think, not because of the angst, rather, he was able to tell everyone not to dwell on the negative but what are we to do to make things a little better. that's all we ever wanted, right?for our lives to be a little better than now. to give hope to the hopeless and direction to the lost.
