Hive Open Mic Week 173 - Tinggal Kenangan (Cover) by IndonesiaBersatu

Hello, my brothers and my sisters. How are you today? May you continue to be blessed by God. This week, the Hive Open Mic weekly event which has entered its 173rd week has an interesting theme, namely "Memories" chosen by our friend @rukkie. But unfortunately, I wasn't with my bandmates, because they haven't heard from them since 3 days ago. Finally, I played this song alone.

So, the song I played today is called "Tinggal Kenangan" in English "Remaining Memories". This song was popularized by Caramel Band in 2008. At that time, this song was very viral because of the mystical story behind the song's creation. Well, today I'm going to share the horror story behind this song, even though I think it's just a myth. But from the horror story, this song went viral in 2008.

Told by many people, that this song was written by a woman named Gaby. She just lost her boyfriend who died in an accident. Ever since her boyfriend died, Gabby has been in a constant state of grief. Gaby also wrote this song and sang it on an acoustic guitar. While singing the song, Gaby recorded her singing on her cell phone. After that, Gaby reportedly died as a result of suicide.

Some people claim that after hearing this song, they saw Gaby's spirit crying. Some say, when someone plays this song, Gaby's spirit is on the listener's side of the song. Even though I don't believe in all the myths that are circulating, I am interested in the stories behind this song. Do you believe in this horror story? Below I include the lyrics of the song.

Indonesian Lyrics

Pernah ada rasa cinta
Antara kita kini tinggal kenangan
Ingin kulupakan
Semua tentang dirimu
Namun tak lagi
Kan seperti dirimu
oh bintangku

Jauh kau pergi meninggalkan diriku
Disini aku merindukan dirimu
Kini ku coba mencari penggantimu
Namun tak lagi
Kan seperti dirimu
oh kekasih

English Translated Lyrics

There was never a feeling of love
Between us now only memories
I want to forget
All about you
But not anymore
Will be like you
oh my star

You are far away from me
Here I miss you
Now I'm trying to find a replacement for you
But not anymore
will be like you
oh dear

Because the original version of the song is so soft and melodious, I changed the genre of this song to Pop Punk. I arranged this song with my bass because I don't have a guitar. I changed the bass sound to a distortion effect. For drum sounds, I made drum sound arrangements with FL Studio software, and I combined them using Adobe Audition software. I'm sorry because the video was recorded using a laptop camera, so the results are not HD. I edited this video using Adobe Premiere software. I hope you also like my version, even though the results are less than optimal because I don't have a guitar. Thank you for listening. Greetings and blessings.
