Jaz remake of the song Seribu Tahun (doc. Special)

JAKARTA - The singer from Brunei Darussalam, Aziz Hayat alias Jaz has remake a popular Singapore song entitled Thousand Years, popularized by Imran Ajmani. This song is planned to be released at the end of November.

This release looks different from Jaz's habit of always releasing original works. The singer said, Thousand Years is a popular song that he has listened to since he was a teenager.

Jaz himself asked his team to release the song Seribu Tahun, as a continuation of the song Bersamamu which was released last June. He saw that this remake song had a deep meaning.

"This song is about a person's loyalty. Usually, a song has a conclusion at the end, but here it doesn't exist and instead questions it back," said Jaz in his statement, Thursday, November 23.

"The point is, this person will do anything for his partner, but will he be able to last for a thousand years. That's roughly the message that was presented," he continued.

The thick ballad nuance with simple lyrics from the song Seribu Tahun is also the reason why Jaz remake this song. He felt inspired and hoped to produce similar works.

"Genre ballad like this is what I like because it brings my style back to single-single at the beginning, like when I sang Kasmaran and Teman Bahagia. In addition, the lyrics presented here are simple, but have deep meaning and I hope that one day I can write lyrics like this," he said.

In remake of the song Seribu Tahun, there was no significant change in arrangement. Jaz said he was just trying to sing the song in his own style

"I've known this song for a long time, so there hasn't been a significant change. Maybe, it's more about how to sing it with my own characteristics, giving a new breath by updating music and arrangements so that it becomes in accordance with Jaz's soul," said Jaz.

For information, through the song Bersamamu, Jaz recorded several achievements both in Indonesia and Asia. The song managed to bring him into Spotify Viral 50 Global, which is 50 global works that went viral on Spotify's digital music platform.

Not only that, but with you it has also gone viral on social media TikTok, and has been widely played as background music by netizens.
