Greetings From Callalily is the fifth and recent album by the Filipino band, Callalily. It was launched on November 23, 2015, and would serve as a tribute album for the 10th anniversary of the band since its debut in the Philippine rock scenes in November 2005.
The album shows a new kind of music style employed by the band, as they wrote songs about love, promises and forevers in a metric style of lyrical writing. Though it was kind of experimental at first, but coupled with the familiar and well-known music and showmanship of the band, the current album is starting to get media hype and positive applause from certified OPM listeners. The band cited the album as the songwriting debut of the band's bassist Aaron Ricafrente.
Originally, the first single was "Now I'm Dancing", which was released before the album was launched. The third song released from this album, "Is This Love", became an instant smash hit, eventually surpassing the short-lived hype of their second single, "Bitter Song", gaining several air plays across various music stations in the country. It is also the only song of the band, that was released not simultaneously with the music video, as the audio of the song was released in April 2016 and its music video, shot in an ancestral house in General Santos City, was only released 5 months after in September of 2016.
