JAKARTA - The song Cinta Dalam Hati from Ungu is viral. The reason is, this song was sung by one of the participants of Indonesian Idol 2021, Jemimah and appeared on TikTok.

Different from the original version presented by Pasha, vocalist of Ungu, Cinta Dalam Hati is interpreted by Jemimah in another way.

According to Oncy, the guitarist Ungu who created Cinta Dalam Hati in 2007, through Jemimah's vocal cords, this song is playing fun with the right vocal composition.

"The words of the lyrics are sung to all. Sometimes he doesn't need the right tone, but he sings it with his life. It arrives, it doesn't have to be the right tone," said Oncy to VOI, Thursday, January 29, by telephone.

In addition, Oncy also discussed the song arrangement. Even though when Jemimah performed it, it was packaged in a more magnificent arrangement, the power of this song was still real because the music did not dominate Jemimah's vocals.

Oncy said, that is the key to the power of the song Cinta Dalam Hati. Like when he made it over 13 years ago.

"When I composed this song, the music was not allowed to be crowded when the vocal was on a low note because it would cover the vocals. For example, the drums are tight, that's not allowed. I'm looking for something safe. When the chorus part, when he's high and releasing the sound then the music is get into a more crowded, "explained the man whose real name is Arlonsy Miraldi.
