Ligaya? *don't hit me*
I know we've probably all heard this by now, so I was wondering what us Aussie TAs thought of Gouryella's new track? Although I'm a big fan, I don't get the European/US "I die!" thing -- wtf?
Anyway, I digress: love it, hate it, don't care either way? Just let us know!

I love it, someone needs to clone Ferry Corsten, my favourite tracks happen to be either remixed by him or are his own productions.

Its good, but, i dont think its deserving of the OMFG I DIE TREATMENT its getting everywhere else. I think people imagine it to be great because its a gouryella production. If it was an unknown who had made this track, then we wouldnt be hearing about it no where near as much.

bingo. but not taking any credit away, it is a good tune but incredibly overated due to that very fact.

I first listened to this song before reading the hype that's surrounded it and I'd have to say that it still hit me as being a pretty awesome tune. Apparently Ligaya = happiness in Philipino and I'd have to agree that that was how I felt after listening to it. Yes, I think the hype is true. Ferry Corsten forever. I can't wait to get my copy signed when he comes to Adelaide. Anyway, I shall certainly be preordering this one - September 10th I think. Anyone know?

It's good but nothing unbelievable or "I DIE!"
I was expecting like the best song of all time with all the hype. But I actualy like Tenshi, Gouryella and Wahalla alot better. I think Gouryella needs Tiesto back just to add the touch that sets their productions apart. Ferry's cool but Tiesto COME BACK!
Anyway I'm looking forward to trying to get into Ferry! Will it be at Darling Harbour in Sydney at the MOS place? Better for me if its there so if I dont get in I can stay at a friends place. CANT WAIT!
I Heard September 16th somewhere Dj Dowlz, possibly in the Ligaya thread in the music discussion forum.

I don't think Ligaya is worthy of the "I die" stuff...but it is still a great track! It has a suitable name (ligaya meaning happiness in Tagalog).
annnyhooo, it gets my approval.

i agree with the general concensus here that it's good but not i die material. Maybe i'll change my mind when i get to hear it on a good system

My problem with Ligaya is that it's a track we've all heard a thousand times before.
Yes it is a good tune, and I'm looking forward to hearing both Armin and Ferry play it. But I think I would've preferred something that was innovative, something that is going to give trance another kickstart...

Ligaya is GOD tune!!!
OMFG!!!
I DIE!!!
seriously, a great tune. Yeah Sept 16 i think it is released. But the FULL RIP of this song is now available on direct connect. Fuck knows how someone got their hands on one of the 10 promo copies pressed. Oh well, god bless the internet!
Can't wait to see Ferry spin it this year, no doubt he will. Tenshi was fantastic last year... lets hope this has the same feeling to it played live.
