This... isn't a song you probably know, but the bonus track reminded me of my brother (arguably) witnessing a song being born.
Sandwich is one of the biggest bands in the Philippines—respected veterans, reliable for really crunchy power pop. They once performed at an evening thing at my siblings' high school many years ago (I was in uni by then) and the students used their mobile phones as lightsticks. As I recall, the band's vocalist, Raimund Marasigan, was so inspired by the sight... and it ended up being a song off a later album.

It's naturally called "Let Your Cellphone Shine".
