I’m not usually a fan of live recordings where bands let the crowd take over the vocals. It’s often cheesy, and worse, the audience doesn’t always sing loud enough to carry the moment. But when people packed into Cozy Cove that night, I doubt they expected Mayonnaise to unleash a screamo-inspired version of Bakit Part 2—something straight out of a Korn, Linkin Park, or Foo Fighters playbook.
I’ve been revisiting the song a lot lately, mostly because I stumbled upon Agsunta’s amazing cover. But this live version? Yeah, I’m into it.
