Thank you so much Julius sa pagfeature sa akin dito sa channel mo. Ginagabayan ka ng Taga-Likha. Patuloy nyo sanang supportahan si Julius. Maraming salamat. Hello din sa mga ka-Jeproks

Dapat bigyan si Sir Mike Hanopol ng National Artist before it’s too late….he deserves it.

...please...please.... Let us make this happen.... Make mike hanopol a national artist indeed... I know mike hanopol as a Philippine icon but I am not a big fan because I am not incline to loud music but after hearing this interview of mike (gush..!!! ) I became an instant BIG fan of mike...totoong Tao po pala si mike and a very WISE man... I should have known mike long ago...sana noon KO pa sya nakilala...let us all help mike a national artist the soonest habang buhay pa po sya...!!!

Mike Hanopol deserves a Recognition/Award, even a National Artist. Sana ibigay sa kanya habang buhay pa siya, para maramdaman n'ya na malaki ang ambag n'ya sa Filipino Music! Mabuhay ka, Mike Hanopol! GOD bless you more!💙💪🇵🇭🙏

I am so lucky to become related to Mike by affinity. His brother Teddy (Germany based) is my in-law. His experiences in the US are amazing. I guess he has a lucky star. Pride of the Pilipino people! Mabuhay ka Mike Hanopol!!

Mike deserves to be in the Hall of Fame Philippines if there is one. His contribution and passion to the OPM and Philippines Music industry is priceless. He's so humble that he just enjoy his passion not looking for fame and money! What a noble character he has❤❤❤ I grew up when "Laki sa layaw Jeproks" was a hit and became an icon and "Hagibis" was budding. Mike, you're a legend! Thank you for your music, it made a difference in our life on our younger days. I can't find newer songs that made an impact like the songs that you've produced. May God bless you more🙏

Born as a musician,, True person in real life.. walang maskara! Di tulad ng ibang sikat'! ✌️ Long live Sir Mike ❤🎸🎶

Napakabait niyang si Sir Mike. Nkasama ko sya noon sa Manila Metropolitan Theater nung ginawa namin ang "Edsa, The Musical". Sya lahat ang gumawa ng kanta namin. I hope maalala niya pa ako, alternate singer ni Ms. Louie Reyes. Dinalaw pa niya ako noon sa hospital nung naaksidente ako. He's so humble

The Only pinoy Rock Legend Icon na hinangaan ko since nung bata pa ako .. high school days mga 1978

mike also played at an "imitation" barrio fiesta in fort lauderdale every thursday, he drove a bantam ford wagon (focus?) and would unload/load his guitar and equipment with visible difficulty. one time we arrived at the same time and i helped him unload, then he said, "masakit na likod ko pare, kaso kailangan kumayod, nagpapa-aral pa ako at gusto sa ateneo pa", this was in 1993 and yes, that hurricane came. best regards to you mr mike!

Such an eye opener. I hope me mag organize ng all star tribute album ke Sir Mike Hanopol/Juan Dela Cruz/Hagibis. Paging Eheads, Bambook, Franco, Urban Dub, Kamikaze, PNE, Basti Artardi, Razorback, please give the Father of Philippine rock and roll a well deserve credit.

Hindi nakakasawang pakinggan mga kwento ng Legend mike hanopol grabe sa wisdom daming napupulot na aral. kudos sir julius sa pag interview ang husay..

OMGGGGG .. Grabe ung Revelation .. Pinakingan q tuloy ung music ng HAGIBIS . Gulat aq si Sir Mike pala un.. all d while akala ko ung HAGIBIS tlaga ang kumanta.. Galing mo Sir Mike..🥰 akala q sa US lng may ganun like ung MILLI VANILLI regarding sa Lip Sing. Tnx Sir Juluis ang ganda ng interview nyo kay Sir Mike Hanopol🥰

MIKE is a genuine LIVING LEGEND..walang ERE at PAGKUKUNWARI......AUTHENTIC EXISTENCE!

"Kung ang langit mo'y iba, sa akin iba ok lang yun, Para sakin kahit saan may langit" Respeto at paghanga sa mga nauna

Mike para sa akin isa kang tunay na artist. Magaling kumanta, composer at magaling na tao. Salamat sa pag interview kay Mike.

Sir Mike :) gawa ka naman po ng libro or autobiography mo na naglalaman ng mga ganitong istorya mo na marami sa amin tyak na hindi ito alam. Maraming kapupulutan ng aral at panahon na rin na malaman ng mga Pilipino ang sining na ginawa po ninyo at mga samut saring story sa gitna ng mga yon. Isa ka ng legend Sir Mike at mahirap ko mang banggitin at di naman sa pungunguna ay sana naman iwan mo sa amin ang legacy nyo para sa present at future generation. Isa ka sa haligi ng musika na naghubog sa Pilipinas sana naman iwan mo naman ang sining at story mo sa amin. Malaking bagay at pasasalamat kung mangyayari iyon, wala na si Sir Pepe at Sir Wally at hindi na mainintidihan ng future generation kung paano ba ang naging story nila. Sana naman hindi tuluyang mawala.

Hindi matatawaran ang galing sa paglikha ng mga obra si Living Legend Sir Mike Hanopol. Grabe yung contributions niya sa OPM. Sana ma-nominate for national artist si Sir Mike. 😍

What a gem! What a great interview sir Julius! What an honor to watch such a good man! Maraming salamat sir Mike.

Iyak-tawa ako sa episode na to. Nakakatuwa ang usapan pero nung nakita ko si Sir Mike na nakatungkod ewan naluha ako. Realidad ng buhay, ang astig nito eh pero ngayon mahina na. Dami nating natutunan sa kwentuhang ito. Sana may mag sponsor na lang para maisalba yung paborito nyang gitara. Keep on rockin' idol, salamat sa musikang naging bahagi ng aming kabataan! 🤟

Sana ma-awardan sya as National Artist for Music, judging from his body of work, dedication to promoting OPM and Filpino culture, and sheer talent and love of music! We should give that honor to him now while he can still enjoy the privileges & benefits! Sana may grupo ng OPM Artists na mag-nominate sa kanya. 🙏🙏🙏

What a small world, sir Mike! I met you once in New York. Lo and behold, I was a platoon leader with the 82nd Airborne Division when we got deployed to Florida after Andrew. We crossed paths again a couple of years after in one of the hotels and yes, my buddies know you. Sayang Walang smart phone noon na pwede kang I google kaagad. I’m glad it turned out well for you.

i just hope the industry will give Mr. Hanopol a recognition of his contribution to the music industry in the 70's i remember the music of Mr. Hanopol with Pepe Smith in Juan Dela Cruz band.....it was such a memory where OPM was so popular. God Bless You Mr. Hanopol....Tks Papu!

Lalong lumaki ang aking paghanga sa isang music icon! God bless you more sir Mike Hanopol

I can’t help but comment for every story of Mr. Hanopol. They’re all interesting. Firstly , I’m just so amazed how he wrote the Hagibis songs. Considering that he had a totally different genre. What a talented artist! Pero tawang-tawa ako about the creation of Hagibis. It’s so hilarious na inulit-ulit ko tuloy panoorin how they scouted sa mga kalye lang. Yung approach nila is parang nang”hahala” ng mga cute and macho dudes lol. Wish a documentary could be made about his life story but include all these anecdotes.

Walang katulad na Pinoy rock mike hanopol national artist😊

Napakaganda ng conversation. Magaling din ang memory ni Sir Mike. Congratulations Mr. Julius and Mr. Mike Hanopol for this episode.

Nabitin pako doon sa kwento ni kabayan sir MikeHanopol longlive...... Salute u... Hope to see u again in Leyte.....

Yes kilala si mike hanopol dahil ako ay kumakanta rin sa kanto. Pero ang celebrity nong araw ay pag artista. Sila yong may special treatment.

Ang ganda ng kwento ng buhay ni mike hanopol ngyon ko lng nalaman un ibang bahagi ng kwento nya.Sna humaba p buhay ny kc isa xang alamat sa musika ng rock at pop songs sa pilipinas.

The Legendary Mike Hanopol, napakahumble, galing magkuwento. He Love his craft and passionate about his songs...ganda ng kuwentuhan Sir Julius hahaha

napaka bait po nila kasi kami po nag rinovate ng bahay nila libre po kami ng pagkain,salamat sir mike napakabuti nyo pong tao good bleese po sayo at sa boong family nyo.

I finished watching the whole interview. What a shocking revelation from a Filipino singing icon. He is a very humble, hardworking and God fearing person. Salute for Julius for this interview.

Ang mga singers na gaya ni Mike ay hindi naman talaga pansin. Sila yung mga super talented pero underrated. Madaming gaya ni Mike na nauwi lang sa mga gigs, tapos hindi pa makabuhay ng pamilya ang kinikita. Kaya hindi natin masisi ang mga gaya niya. Ako ang favorite kong band ay Asin at si Coritha, na wala rin yatang nangyari sa career.

thank you julius nalaman ko na hindi basta singer c sir mike hanopol kundi isang tunay na mapagmahal sa Diyos at mabuting tao

One of my favorite local group, very macho un music & rhythm & no bakla sa group. Pareho kami ni Mike na nag migrated kasi, mga whites will recognized & complimented our job, than our countrymen. Totoo, ang Sabi ni Mike, you will learn more in US by experienced rather than going to school for master’s degree. We work by heart, sa abroad , but sa atin bayan they work para magyabang….

Excellent interview. Salamat sa pagbahagii ng story ni Mike . He is an icon. Humility is the hallmark of a true artist. Hindi pumasok sa mind nya ang FAME. Ang gagaling ng mga artists sa generation nmin.

Grabe Galing pa rin nya ❤saludo ako kay Sir Mike H.

Da best mike hanopol isa sa halige musikang pilipino..💪🇵🇭💪

Hat’s off to mike hanopol! Great interview Julius.❤

Ever since, alam kong boses ni Mike Hanopol yung Hagibis. Masyadong distinct eh. Parang yung VST, boses talaga ni Vic Sotto ang maririnig mo. Uso na pala nuon ang style ng Milli Vanilli.

Kaya pala may kanta kayong Buhay Amerika yung title Sir, pertaining pala sa personal experience nyo sa America! Salute 🫡 Sir...mike Hanopol! Thank you Sir Julius mas nakilala ko si Sir Mike Hanopol. Isa akong taga hanga. May.mga casette tapes ako noon at vinyl records na mga kanta nya now in spotify! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Sir Julius, thank you so much for this interview of such an iconic individual as sir Mike is. I do believe it's about time he be given the recognition he deserves as to his contribution to the OPM industry. Sayang nga lang at wala na si Pepe at Wally. Anyway sir Julius, kung wala pa, next time, have an interview with Lolita Carbon. Again, thank you and all the best to you and your family.

Napaka HUMBLE pla nI SIR MIKE kausap Isa kang LIVING LEGEND sana bigyan ka ng maraming PARANGAL at mahabang buhay at pamarisan ka ng mga sikat na maging HUMBLE

This is a huge revelations of Sir Mike Hanapol, he have been silent for many decades, so humble and full of respect to other co- singers. You will be our icon in the musical history of the Philippines ❤. Mabuhay po kayo, Sir!

Grabe comedy kwento ni sir mike Pag buo ng hagibis - long live mike ! Good job julius

Dapat kilalanin ng bayan ang malaking kontribusyon nya sa larangan ng musikang pinoy,,mabuhay ka MIKE HANOPOL!!!

Napakahumble simpleng tao, pero talentado, parang hindi rakista, he deserves to receive a special recognition in the music industry

Nung bata pa ako nabalitaan ko na yan na si Mike Hamopol nga daw ang kumakanta sa likod ng mga kanta ng hagibis..specially sa song na "Katawan".

Sobrang nakaka touch ang mga kwento

Ganda ng storya ni sir mike hanofol an taong humble at talaga pinag papala ng diyos god bless po

Very humble icon mike hanopol who never acclaimed his popularity and his contributions to music industry but just a part only of his job as musicians ,,,,,God bless u mike hanapol ,,,,,,future rock n roll artist HOF of Philippines music industry,,,,a national artist in the making,,,

What a great interview. I was always wondering why Hagibis sounded like Mike Hanopol. Great to see him in relatively good health and great spirits. Some of the greatest songs were created in the shortest amount of time. Laki sa Layaw proves it once again. Amazing. I was today years old when I learned where 'jeproks' came from. I always thought it meant hippie. And Joey de Leon even contributed to Hagibis. Touching the lives of Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton, Johnny Depp, Julio Iglesias, Enrique Iglesias; playing with Billy Joel, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson -- WOW! What a life this legend has lived. I really wish they make a proper documentary on Mike and the JDLC band.

Lumaki po ako sa panahon na kasikatan ng inyong mga kanta, ng Juan de la Cruz. Early 80's alam na po namin na si sir Mike Hanopol ang boses ng Hagibis band. At hanggang ngayon po madalas ay kinakanta ko sa karaoke ang ilan sa mga kanta nyo na gustong gusto ko. Thank you for the music sir Mike Hanopol!

dapat ito po ang mga nagiging hurado sa mga show ng talents, likes PGT...and the likes, legend tlaga. 😊

70s 80s most requested songs Laki sa layaw jeprox ❤❤❤❤

ganda ng interview.. ang daming nalaman.. so HAGIBIS is MIKE HANOPOL............... mabuhay k sir.. "kahit saan may langit"

What an incredible life experience stories of Mike Hanopol. Love it!❤😊

Sana magkaron ng free school of music sa pinas na may pondo sa gobyerno..at kuhanin ang gaya ni nila mike..para magturo..para maisalin sa salinlahi ang mga talento nila...

Kinanta nya ang himig natin pkiramdam ko ina alala nya ung mga kasama nya sa juan dela cruz band na gusto nya sana mka jamming ulit yang himig natin ang pnaka favorite ko sa lahat may malalim na mensahe sa bawat pilipino

Nothing but respect to The Living Legend of rock and roll in the Philippines.Napanood ko concert nila noon late 70's sa Carigara,Leyte.He is also a waraynon.

What a very beautiful man. Ang ganda ng attitude at outlook sa buhay. Fame is not everything. What a beautiful life experience.. parang fantasy turned reality.

Ang tindi pala Ng experienced nya ? Mga bigating singers/ actors/ actresses e nakita at nakahalobilo nya wowww pati naging trabaho nya ay matindi! Good job Mr. Mike Hanapol best choice talaga na umalis ka ng bansa sarap gunitain 🙏🥰❤️ Thank you for sharing this amazing interview God Bless 🙏

Wow! What a funny revelation from none other than Rock icon and living legend Sir Mike Hanopol 🤭👏👏👏👏

Nang unang kung marinig ang mga kanta ng Hagibis nahalata ko kaagad na boses un ni Mike Hanopol, litaw na litaw kasi ung boses nya!

this is by far my favorite episode , Mike Hanopol the legend. yung mga ganito klaseng tao ang may sense magkwento. I love hearing people their stories.

Thank you for all your contributions to the Music and Art Industry. Hoping for your Great Legacy will be passed on generation to generation. Rock on Mr. Mike Hanopol. 🤘🤘❤❤

Very excellent episode naito,totoo yan iba mag pahalaga ang people sa ibang bansa lalo kapag maganda performance mo, grabe sila magpa halaga respeto, very humble ito si sir Mike.

YHWH bless you, Elder Mike. Thanks for witnessing for Yeshua the Messiah. HalleluYAH.

After more than 40 years, the real truth must be revealed. I have so much respect and admiration for you Sir Mike Hanopol😀🥰

So full of ups and downs content ang life story ni Mr. Mike Hanopol, i like the way he delivers and revealed his colorful life and career❤🥰🥰🤩God bless a great rock musician like you, I wish you also see one of tge Beatles in California like Paul McCartney and George Harrison, former Beatle band, during your stardom John Lennon was dead already the best songwriter you had missed to see, nice experienced seeing hollywood musicians and stay with good balladeer Julio Iglesias🥰🤩♥️

MINSAN DIN NAMAN AKO NAGING JEPROKS pero nagbago ang lahat ng magkaroon ng pamilya at anak. SALUTE TO JULIUS BABAO FOR INTERVIEW THE ICON,LEGENDARY MIKE HANOPOL 🙏🙏🙏🐐🐐🐐🐐

Mula umpisa gang dulo tinapos ko ng walang cut.. napaka gandang storya

Nice and inspiring story telling of ICON Mike Hanopol👍😊

Thank you sir Julius for featuring sir Mike! He’s a legend! I enjoyed watching and listening to his untold stories! Nakakatuwa! He’s so humble and has achieved so much in life! More power sir Hanopol!❤

Salamat SIR MIKE, sa AWITING PILIPINO na binahagi mo sa aming kabataan mabuhay Ang PINOY ROCK!!!

Napaka down to earth po pala ni Mr Mike Hanopol galing dapat tayo magpakumbaba palagi katulad nya Maraming Salamat po sa Dios dahil po sa kanya nagpapakumbaba at nagpapakabuti po tayo

Wow.. ang dami kong nalaman at natutuhan. Nuong bata ako hanggang ngayon, Nalaman ko rin ang ibig sabihin ng Jeproks. ng mapanuod ko itong you tube show ni Julius..Nuong bata ako, lagi kong pinapakinggan yung mga kanta ng hagibis, skepticc na ako nung mga 1980's kasi kapag pinapainggan ko yung mga unang kanta ng hagigibis, ang sabi sa sarili ko, kaboses ni Mike Hanopol yung mga kanta. Tama pala ako.

Thank you po Mr Babao for featuring Mr Mike Hanopol. TBH, I didn’t care much about him then , only because I was much more into R&B and jazz and pop. But now I do appreciate, respect artists like him. And I’m very interested in their life stories. M Hanopol is a true artist in its deepest sense, aware of the social issues at that time. But wasn’t given due credit and respect. Having him in shows like yours , is the simplest but important form of giving the honor and recognition that he so deserves.

Mike Hanopol was so spontaneous and so candid and was never shy on what jobs he had in America considering that he was so well known back here in the Phils. It was really a delight hearing his story about his life in America.

Gusto ko c Julius mag interview.He let his guests talk.Kaya mas lalong nkaka entertain kc mas naikwekwento ng mga guest mga life experiences nila.Hindi tulad s iba interrupt ng interrupt 😂

Humility at its FINEST!!! Hats off to you Sir Mike! So down to earth...SUPER TALENTED! You will smile alone listening to his bittersweet anecdotal memories!!!

Genuine rocker talaga kahit mild mainstream at mainstream na kwentuhan lumalabas ang rock nature ni Ka Mike

Mike Hanopol PINOY ROCK icon 🤘.. isa sa mga HALIGI ng MUSIKA

During that era music lang talaga ang libangan ng mga tao hanggang nauso ang Walkman that you can bring anywhere with you. How time flies so fast

Thnx Sir Julius Babao nakita ko po to sa Tiktok nakkainspired si Sir Mike Hanopol very down to earth one of pioneers of OPM rock in the Philippines..

Maraming salamat, sir Julius Babao. Lagi kong na enjoy ang istoryang pinoy rock bands lalo na't mula kay sir Mike. Maraming salamat din sir Mike Hanopol sa pag share ng konting istorya ng inyong buhay it is so interesting at na enjoy ko po bawat kuwento na inyong ibinahagi sa amin. And i am proud to say na AWITING PILIPINO ang number one sa aking pinaka paboritong awitin simula nang una ko pa itong marinig noong 70s maraming salamat ka Mike
