The Importance Of A Singer Choosing Songs According To His Feelings

JAKARTA - If music is closely related to taste, it is important for a singer to choose what kind of song will be performed.

In this case, Waode, who has just released a single entitled Bisa Without You, has his own story when choosing a song.

Initially, the singer with the full name Waode Heni was offered several choice songs by the music label. After listening to the songs carefully, he decided to sing Bisa Without You written by Tintin and▁pengetahuan Chandra.

"When I was in the workshop with A&R (Artist and Repertoire) Trinity in August 2023, I was given several choices of songs, and one of them Can be without you. Once I heard this song, I immediately liked it, because the lyrics are good, relate, and the notes are also easy to remember," said Waode when contacted by VOI, Monday, January 29.

Bagi Waode, penting untuk memilih lagu dengan cerita yang pernah dialami diri. Dengan begitu, pesan dari lagu akan lebih jelas disampaikan.

"If we sing according to what we feel, usually the contents of the message will be more delivered. So every time we sing, it feels like 'Wow, this is my story, you have to listen to it, I told it naturally, tell it what it is'," said Waode.

"So in my opinion, when the singer sings a song with the contents of the song he once felt, it will be more interesting," he added.

Adapun, Bisa Tanpamu berkisah tentang seseorang yang tak diinginkan dan dibutuhkan lagi oleh kekasihnya. Meski telah berusaha sekuat tenaga untuk mempertahankan hubungan, namun keputusan sang kekasih sudah bulat dan tetap memilih pergi. Pada akhirnya, ia harus menerima kenyataan bahwa harus bisa melewati hari-harinya tanpa sang pujaan hati.

The story in the song Bisa Without You, said Waode, is also felt to be a story from many people. A broken love relationship will end with the belief that we can get through life without him.

With the right choice of song, Waode admitted that the recording process was also easier. Moreover, he was assisted by Mohammed Kamga, who is known as an experienced vocal director.

"Alhamdulillah, the recording process is not long, only one to two hours. And that was assisted by Kamga's sister," said Waode.
