"Magkaisa" (Tagalog for "unite") is a 1986 Filipino pop song performed by Virna Lisa (Virna Lisa Loberiza) and composed by Tito Sotto,[1][2] which is notable for being one of three iconic songs associated with the People Power Revolution of 1986 - the other two being "Handog ng Pilipino sa Mundo"[3] and the traditional kundiman anthem "Bayan Ko".
[4] Sotto wrote the song over the course of three days, with the assistance of arranger Homer Flores and record producer Ernie Dela Peña.
The back-up singers singing alongside Virna Lisa were Babsie Molina, Bambi Bonus and Vic Sotto.
The song was greatly popular with the masses[vague] in the days after the ouster of President Ferdinand Marcos and his eventual departure to Hawaii on 25 February 1986.
Regine Velasquez sang her version of the song during the Tatak EDSA 25 concert that commemorated the 25th anniversary of the People Power Revolution.
