Hive Open Mic Week 46 is in the house, Man! For me, this community is very special. Doing my hobby and got some "coins" as a paid is something special that always become the way of life I want to. Last second months, some coins I got from the upvoters, thanks for all great curators for their support, those all are very helpful. At least, I could pay my internet bills and bought some stuff I need. I also feel impressed while the numbers of coins I got on Hive Open Mic is increased time to time. I bloody happy due to at the same time the number of participants stored their creative works in this community is going up as well.
For this ocassion, I cover An Indonesian Song from one of the best group in Indonesia, SLANK. This band is very famous in my country. As the matter of fact, this band has the most militan fans in the whole country. Perhaps, SLANK is the only group music in this country where the band's flag and banners often seen in another band live concert. SLANKERS the fanbase name of SLANK is exist in many areas of our country. Then, little bit about the song I cover for this HOM Week 46, MAAFKANLAH, was the song that blew this band to sky for the first time on 1990.
Here is short information about this band that I copy paste from Wikipedia..
Slank was founded in 1983 by teenagers in an alley street in Jakarta called Gang Potlot, is the biggest Indonesian rock band today and along with God Bless and Dewa 19 dubbed as one of the greatest legends or icons in the history of Indonesian popular music for became a motivator for many rock groups who later emerged after the success of God Bless at that time. The band are known for playing blues and rock music accompanied with political sociology lyrics. It continues to be active and has received many awards from the Indonesian music industry.
Here is the link of my video that I stored on YouTube and share it's link here...
As usual the lyrics and its translation is available...
Kau datang padaku saat ku luka
Luka dengan sejuta kecewa
Yang hempaskan tubuhku, remukkan dada
Namun lembut belaimu balutkan luka
You came to me when I got hurt
Hurt with a million disappointed
The one that threw my body, crushed my chest
But you gently caress my wound
Kau kecup bibirku saat ku muak
Muak dengan sesaknya asmara
Yang membuatku muntah, lepaskan dendam
Namun hangat bibirmu redakan duka
You kiss my lips when I'm fed up
Fed up with the tightness of romance
Which makes me vomit, let go of grudges
But the warmth of your lips eases sorrow
Maafkanlah aku acuhkan dirimu
Waktu pertama kali tersenyum padaku
Maafkanlah aku jejali dirimu dengan segala kisah sumpah serapahku
I'm sorry I ignore you
The first time you smiled at me
Forgive me stuffing you with all my swearing stories
Note: The picture on my background video is belong to my brother @marxause.. Sorry bro I Miss mentioning you before 😀🙏🙏
Hi @rezasofyan
What a nice place you are recording the video, it already brings happiness. As a relief, that forgiveness can bring the the soul. You are so free, I would like to be so comfortable in front of the camera as you are! And you sing very well, we didn't notice the missing parts hehehe, don't worry.
I am listening for the second time now to you performance... I really like the song and the style! Very good!
Big thanks for your appreciation @mipiano. It's always nice to have such a great attention over our creative work. It's my pleasure also to know that you repeated watching of my video. Little bit about the place of this taken, it was on the basecamp of my community in Aceh.
I Will keep doing my best and be more creative on my work in this platform. Once again thank you so much for your support. I bloody appreciate it! 😀
You are very welcome, and once again, you are already creative and as I said so free when speak. I have to admit that my speaking in English in front of the camera is not very free.. I could play the piano for hours, but speaking into the camera makes me feel strange, I can not just talk like when I am writing... and I write way too much 🤣
Keep up with the good work!
I'm trying my best of using English as the guide of my video. Glad to know you could get the message well. Have a chance to keep practicing my English, both speaking and writing, is one of the reason I jump into this platform.
Thank you so much for your support..🙏😀😀
