Magasin (English: "Magazine") is a song by the Pinoy alternative rock band, Eraserheads, from their 1994 album Circus. It was the band's second hit single from the album. No music video was made for the song.

Composition

"Magasin" was based on Ely's cousin who dated Shirley Tesoro, a famous bold star who gained popularity for her roles in movies such as "Eye of the Eagle 2: Inside the Enemy" (1989) and "Maricris Sioson Story: Japayuki" (1993). The song's chorus was also inspired by Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing". The song was originally titled as "Tiktik".[1]
