JAKARTA - After it was confirmed that he failed to become a member of the DPR RI and was no longer the General Chair of the Indonesian Solidarity Party, Giring Ganesha returned to the music stage. Recently, the former Nidji vocalist appeared at the CXO Live from Sarinah event.

Although happy to be back in front of fans, Giring admitted that he was filled with nervous feelings when he got on stage and had to sing.

"In recent years, if you sing at a party event, this time you'll meet your fans again. Earlier, before going up on the stage, I was nervous, but when I had the second and third songs, I started to enjoy (appearing)," said Giring Ganesha.

Long time as the band's vocalist and then entering practical politics, Giring admitted that he was in a dilemma. He felt he could no longer speak as freely as first, because there were several things that had to be maintained.

"I have to relax even more, do I say? I'm afraid if I get too released to become a regular chapter. If the chapter, it will continue to be recorded, it will go viral again," he said.

"Yes, there is still a sense of caution. If you become a rockstar, you can't be careful, right? How about it?" he added.

Giring admitted that four years as General Chair of political parties has changed his character in public. He realized that he had to re-adjust when appearing as a singer.

"Four years, it's been a long time, so we have to get used to it again, it's even more flexible, it's more relaxed. We have to learn, so hopefully there will be many calls, so I can practice again," said Giring Ganesha.

"I'm now on stage like I'm talking to cadres, with voters, with constituents. Now, we have to start adapting again."
