Simpleng Tao by Gloc-9: A Reader-

Response Criticism

Gloc-9, a well-known Filipino rapper and songwriter, composed a song, “Simpleng Tao,”
that gives a message of genuine love and dedication in the face of life's challenges and financial
issues. Going through the lyrics of the song, the main character expresses his passionate feelings
with the person he loves, emphasizing the effect of genuine love that overcomes wealth and
power. The song is heartwarming, representing love in such a simple way. Gloc-9's song
effectively showcased the complexities of love through its catchy melody and reflective lyrics,
encouraging listeners to reflect on and contemplate various aspects of love and relationships.

As we listen to the song, "Simpleng tao '', it perfectly conveys the essence of love,
emphasizing its value beyond material things. It teaches us that true love and relationships do not
require extravagant gifts or wealth to work, rather, it is about being there for one another through
thick and thin. The song highlights the value of unwavering love, but it's also essential to
acknowledge the relevance of certain aspects in relationships, such as prioritizing emotional
connection and support. The song highlights what truly matter in a relationship and that is having
unconditional love, which is the foundation of a strong relationship. It means loving your partner
without expecting anything in return, accepting them for who they are and what their flaws are.
Focusing on these aspects rather than materialism and money can lead to a deeper and more
meaningful connection, it’s all about listening, understanding, and making each other feel loved
and respected every day. The song is a subtle reminder to cherish both the practical and
emotional aspects of love in order to maintain a happy and healthy relationship.

The song teaches us valuable lessons about the power of love and the reality of life’s ups
and downs. It taught us that love doesn’t have to be complicated or extravagant; instead, it's the
simple acts of sincerity and commitment that truly matter. As we listen to its lyrics, we’ll feel at
ease with the idea that love can overcome any struggle, providing endless encouragement and
strength. The song has become a beacon, guiding us through both the good and the bad times
with its powerful message of hope and genuine love. In the end, this song reminds us of the
incredible power we have inside and how love can truly change our lives. However, the song has
made us think of financial stability’s importance in a relationship, as it can lead to a more stable
and comfortable lifestyle for us and our partner. This can include having the means to afford
necessities, provide for future goals, and handle unexpected expenses. It is notable how the song
emphasizes genuine love; however, love isn't enough to support one in life.
The song’s vibe captures the listeners attention due to its classic and nostalgic beats,
which allow listeners to sing along, making it catchy. The beat of the song emits positive and
happy vibes, yet if we dig deeper into the lyrics, there is a sense of longing and desire for love,
making the song relatable, especially for those who are single. The lyrics of the song effectively
influenced the concept of love because the writer’s witty choice of words to show the willingness
of someone to love even though they do not possess amazing traits and wealth, only offering
what they only have, is how love is portrayed in the song. However, the only downside of the
song's message is that it overlooks the importance of financial stability in a relationship,
especially in today's time.

To sum it all up, the song "Simpleng Tao" by Gloc-9 shares a beautiful message about
the power of love. It tells the story of an ordinary person expressing their love in simple yet
heartfelt ways, showing that genuine affection is more meaningful than material things. While
the song emphasizes the significance of love, it also acknowledges the realities of life, such as
the need for financial stability in relationships. Despite this, the main idea behind the song
remains focused on the power that comes from genuine love. It acts as a reminder to value
sincere relationships and give priority to the things that are really important in life. The song’s
message was effectively conveyed, exploring the intricacies of love and combining catchy
melodies with reflective lyrics to encourage listeners to reflect on various aspects of love and
relationships.
