It was one of those days hatching my colleagues ride to Kota Kinabalu when he played this album Id Pagadadan by Fabian William. it was surprisingly good, unlike the sometimes crass and horrible lyrics in some Sabah songs idea heard.
after the drop off, i realized that the songs are now in my head, and off i went looking for the CD at Donggongon. sadly, they’re either out of stock, or they don’t have it. Desperate, i went to Youtube looking for the songs. and i found a few.
After watching them, i though i might just share it on the Blog. who knows Fabian can win more fans outside of Sabah?
I personally enjoy the second track a lot more, although i still have almost no idea what the song is about, except it sure is talking about some Sumandak. Any readers out there who speaks Dusun?
Hope you peeps enjoy them!

It’s good to see you taking an interest in the local culture.
I’ve tried listening to Iban songs but it’s just not my cup of tea. The only thing I can bear is Poco-Poco. haha~~
