“Sa Susunod na Habangbuhay” tugged at listeners’ heartstrings after its release in February 2021. It talks about a romance that has lost its luster as one vows to continue choosing their beloved in another lifetime. The song was written spontaneously by the band’s vocalist Miguel Guico while on a bus ride to Manila.
