JAKARTA - Songwriter Richard Kyoto expressed his anger at Hetty Koes Endang. The reason is, some of the lyrics of the song, entitled "Love", were changed by the 66-year-old singer.
The incident occurred when Hetty appeared in a concert titled 'Consert One Voice Volume 2' which was held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2015.
At that time, Hetty Koes Endang performed a song Love written by Richard Kyoto, and changed the phrase'my life and death only for you' to be changed to 'give my love only for you'.
Kyoto considers Hetty to have carried out'mutilation' to her work. She did not like that the song was changed, especially without prior notification and permission.

"I'm not happy. The most polite language from me, I'm not happy that my song has been changed," said Richard Kyoto during a press conference in Mampang Prapatan, South Jakarta, Tuesday, July 16.
For Kyoto, it is clear that the song "Love" has lost its meaning, although only a few parts of the lyrics have been changed.
Meanwhile, Kyoto explained that Hetty's confession that the phrase'my life and death' was only for you' was deemed inappropriate to be performed in Malaysia. There, the phrase only deserves to be shown to the Creator.
"I said this is a song language, he changed it, meaning different," concluded Richard Kyoto.
