Orange & Lemons - Hanggang Kailan (Umuwi Ka Na Baby) (2005) / Filipino Indie-Alternative like The Smiths or Morrissey

Okay am I crazy or is the vocal style reminiscent of songs like This Charming Man or Everyday Is Like Sunday?
The title translates to Until When (Come Home Baby).

I like the sound but my 1-word comprehension of Tagalog/Bahasa doesn’t allow me to appreciate the lyrics!The song is about being unable to forget a lover, how he looks for them at night, and wondering how long he’ll have to wait until they’re together again in the course of his difficult life.
I haven’t heard much of this band but some songs seem to have an alternative 80s vibe, which explains why they’re playing the same show as Flock of Seagulls in Manila.
@alternativenation Strike Whilst the Iron Is Hot, a song on the same album, has more of the jangly guitar sound that I associate with Johnny Marr.
