Ely Buendia Reminds Fans That "Music Is All That Matters"

Ely Buendia had one question for Eraserheads fans who reacted negatively to his confession that he and his band mates were not really friends: "Why hate on people who want to tell the truth?"

Buendia was referring to an earlier revelation he made in a recent guesting on Wake Up With Jim and Saab, where he shared how the fan-favorite song "Minsan" makes him cringe, two decades since leaving the band. 

"I was kinda sick of fans saying when the E-heads broke up... I was kinda sick of fans saying na 'you're friends. You shouldn't have broken up.' They feel bad about it, they made us feel bad and I was sick of that," Buendia had said, explaining how fans took that one particular song against the group's disbandment. 

"That's what they reference all the time but what fans didn't know, what the public didn't know is that," Buendia said with a momentary cliffhanger, "I don't wanna break hearts again but we were never close. We were never friends. That's why we broke up," he said.

Although he said they "were never close", Buendia said in the podcast that the band had a good working relationship. "It was nice while it lasted," he then said. 

On May 27, Buendia addressed Eraserheads fans on Twitter who were criticizing him for telling "the truth" of how he was never really friends with his bandmates.

"Big deal, still? Why hate on people who want to tell the truth? I didn't ask to be interviewed, nanahimik na nga ko dito eh living a happy life kayo yung makulit about the eheads," he said.

Now, "The music is all that matters. Have you forgotten about that, and who wrote most of it? Just sayin," he said.

He followed it up with another tweet: "Lol it's also weird that I have more Ehead fans who hate me than DDS. Priorities, I guess."
