Have you ever gazed into your past, contemplating the paths untaken and unfulfilled love? jvcxii‘s track “Pantunan” explores the depths of missed opportunities and unspoken emotions.
Let’s take a moment to meet the creative mind behind this heartfelt track. John Vincent De Andres Cervantes, affectionately known as jvcxii, is a talented independent singer-songwriter hailing from the Philippines. Since 2017, he has been crafting melodies and writing lyrics that deeply resonate with the human experience. With Pantunan, jvcxii continues his journey of connecting with listeners on a profound level.
The narrative of Pantunan revolves around two close friends who harbor unexpressed love for each other during their high school days. Despite the palpable chemistry between them, neither musters the courage to confess their feelings. Fast forward to college, they’ve moved on with separate lives and relationships, yet the lingering question remains: What if they had taken that leap of faith earlier? What if they had explored their emotions instead of burying them in the sands of time?
Originally titled “Hanap,” which means ‘search’ in Filipino, the song’s essence remains unchanged even with its shift to “Pantunan,” referencing the setting of Pampanga, where the story unfolds. It’s a tale of what-ifs and what-could-have-beens, resonating with anyone who has ever wondered about the paths untaken in their own lives.
Pantunan is a gentle reminder of the bittersweet nature of nostalgia. It brings back memories of being young and innocent, mixed with the complicated feelings we never talked about. jvcxii’s soulful vocals and emotive lyrics paint a vivid picture of love lost in the labyrinth of time, leaving listeners pondering their own ‘what ifs.’
