Between 1998 and 2018, at least a dozen people were killed in disputes linked to the song, in incidents dubbed the \"My Way Killings.\" Victims were shot for singing off-key, stabbed over microphone disputes, and killed for daring to claim the song as theirs. The killings prompted bar owners to ban the song outright, drew international media attention, and sparked debate about karaoke culture, Filipino identity, and the role of pride and alcohol in public violence.
