Pupil frontman Ely Buendia is upset that he got “shamed” over a joke he made about an Eraserheads song. And he’s not shy to share his feelings to his more than one million Twitter followers.
On Sat, Apr 2, Ely posted a tweet that’s obviously about the Eraserheads song “Ligaya.”
Eraserheads is the popular 90s pop rock band which consisted Ely, Marcus Adoro, Buddy Zabala, and Raimund Marasigan.
Eh sariling thesis ko nga di ko magawa-gawa sa’yo pa.

To recall, part of song goes: “Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo/Wag mo lang ipagkait ang hinahanap ko.”
Naturally, the internet exploded.

It seems Ely is aware of the “backlash” over his tweet.
Number 1 requirement for an Eheads fan: a sense of humor.

But Ely took to social media again on Fri, Apr 8, to tell fans who bashed Ely over the joke to “get a life.”
He even said that the Eraserheads is a “can of worms” he would rather not open anymore.
That whole Ligaya episode has proven one thing: Eheads is a can of worms I’d rather not open anymore. And I don’t intend to take up fishing.

Haters I can take. Eheads fans who hate on me? There’s something wrong there.

Can’t even tell a joke without getting shamed. Ah, but that’s the internet for you.

He also called “Ligaya” a silly love song.”
There’s a lot more stuff out there worth being passionate about than a pop song.

There are new things to try, new places to go. If u wanna come with us, hop on. If u wanna stay behind that’s okay. Just don’t hold us back.
