Leona Releases Song About Losing A Pet Dog

 

Leona Releases Song About Losing A Pet Dog

After a heartfelt hiatus, Leona returns with their most personal release to date, “Isang Sandali Pa,” under Universal Records Philippines.

The band reveals that the song was written as a tribute to their bassist’s beloved dog who passed away a few months ago. What began as a deeply personal expression of grief became a universal anthem for anyone who has ever wished for just one more moment — one more embrace, one more quiet second to hold on.

“We wrote this song as a tribute to our bassist’s beloved fur baby who passed away a few months ago. We hope it reaches anyone who’s still holding on to beautiful memories.”

Through tender lyricism and soaring melodies, “Isang Sandali Pa” captures the ache of watching time slip away. From hospital-room prayers and tearful nights to the quiet acceptance of a final goodbye, the song reflects the painful beauty of loving something so deeply that even a single moment feels priceless. Its emotional climax — “Isang sandali pa ang aking hiling” — becomes both a plea and a surrender.

The track marks a significant new chapter for Leona. Composed of Ken Tiongson, Faith Garcia, Jake Nicolas, Jazer Reyes, Clyde Amoranto, and John Ace Gatuz, the band channels their collective grief and growth into a sound that is more mature, cinematic, and vulnerable than ever before. During their time away, the members leaned into reflection and personal experiences — and this comeback is a testament to that evolution.

More than just a return single, “Isang Sandali Pa” is a love letter — not only to a cherished companion lost too soon, but to anyone navigating loss while holding tightly to gratitude.

“Isang Sandali Pa” is now available on all major streaming platforms.
