Zack Tabudlo tackles confusion and distance in his latest song
Manila Bulletin
|August 09 2025
OPM artist Zack Tabudlo has released his latest single entitled "Naguguluhan" (confused), which talks about confusion and distance between two inseparable people.

But before anyone else gets suspicious, Zack clarified that the song is not about him and his girlfriend.
"It's about the different experiences I went through throughout the years — stories from my friends. So it's like a summary on unrequited love," Zack said during a Zoom call recently. "It sums up all the emotions."
When asked how difficult it was to compose a heartbreaking song, Zack said: In a way (it was difficult) because my relationship with my girlfriend is healthy. But my girlfriend (Abby) is very supportive and vice versa. And it made my job easier. She's very open about this because she grew up in the US. When she heard it, she said, "Ang ganda ng song' and 'Ang ganda ng art."
Zack, 23, recalled that her girlfriend was in the same room studying when he composed "Naguguluhan."
