Suryakanta Studio Version

Suryakanta
Song: Sharon Paul
Lyrics: Ahmad Fedtri Yahya

Kerana mata ku bercinta
Kerana mata ku derita
Lapis mataku dikabur dusta memperdaya

Kernanya fitnah berbega
Kernanya tercipta angkara
Ke manakah menghilangnya.. Oh suryakanta

Dan kadangkala.. Mata khilaf mentafsirkan..
Baik disangka hina
Buruk dipuja mulia

Ku mencari dan menanti cinta hakiki
Ku susuri dan layari rona duniawi
Pandanganku.. Bak suryakanta

Aduhai puspita terpesona.. matamu gundah..
Cerahkan kias pandangmu.. Jernihkan hati..
Setulus cinta didamba.. Pasti bersinggah..
Seindah bintang.. Seranum budi..

Well guys! The final studio version of Suryakanta is finally out!! & here I am trying to promote the song to all my friends hehe.. Loads have had a listen.. Some liked it very much.. What about you?? Voice out your opinion.. It would be very much appreciated

Kak Ani Takkan Melatah~

2007-07-09T16:00:00.000+01:00

Noraniza Idris clarifies her situation in an interview by Melodi crews regarding the latest 'fitnah' upon her which has been wildly circulating in the cyber world

This interview was arranged to slam back upon the gossip that her relationship with Mr X has recently ended

Harian Metro 17 June 07

TERSENTUH hati CAK mendengar perkhabaran terbaru Noraniza Idris. Pejuang irama Melayu ini enggan lagi menyandar harapan terhadap mana-mana lelaki.

Fokusnya kini hanya kerjaya dan anak. Soal mendirikan rumah tangga tidak penting lagi. Apa sudah jadi?

Seingat CAK, penyanyi yang mesra dengan panggilan Kak Ani ini pernah mengaku rapat dengan seseorang. Malah kisah ini menjadi buah mulut orang ramai tidak lama dulu, lebih-lebih lagi apabila ia disensasikan media.

Melalui seorang teman, CAK dapat tahu hubungan mesra Kak Ani dan jejaka pilihannya sudah berakhir. Kak Ani yang tarik diri kononnya gara-gara tidak tahan dikongkong.

Belum ada apa-apa lagi, sudah meletakkan syarat jangan buat itu, jangan buat ini. Sekali dua tidak mengapa, tapi jika keterlaluan siapa yang tahan?

Sabarlah Kak Ani! CAK percaya, Kak Ani tahu apa yang terbaik buat diri Kak Ani dan anak. Sudah pasti keputusan itu diambil selepas memikirkannya berkali-kali.

Sebagai pemerhati, CAK sentiasa mendoakan Kak Ani hidup dengan tenang dan bahagia. Anggaplah apa yang Kak Ani lalui sebagai satu lagi dugaan.

Info Terkini Lagi Sensasi~

2007-07-07T11:11:00.000+01:00

Petikan Berita Harian: 7/7/7

SELAMA 21 tahun bergelar artis, tidak pernah dia melatah atau menjerit marah apabila berita tidak benar mengenai dirinya dimainkan media. Biarpun dijentik, diasak pelbagai persoalan yang mengguris perasaan semua kelukaan itu hanya terpendam dan terdasar jauh di sudut hatinya.

Biarpun sesetengah laporan cuba menguji kesabarannya, dia masih mampu memaafkan pihak yang tidak bertanggungjawab itu. Baginya, itu adalah asam garam yang mahu atau tidak terpaksa juga ditempuhinya.

Malah, bibirnya tidak lekang berterima kasih kepada pihak media juga peminat yang sentiasa mendoakan kesejahteraan dan kebahagiaan hidupnya. Apatah lagi selepas menjalani kehidupan sebagai ibu tunggal, Noraniza Idris akur gerak gerinya sentiasa menjadi perhatian.

Akuinya, sebelum ini dia begitu terbuka untuk bercerita mengenai isu peribadi dengan pihak media. Dia sedar masyarakat di luar ingin sekali mengetahui siapa lelaki bertuah yang berjaya memenangi hatinya selepas rumah tangga yang dibina bersama Fareez runtuh pada 4 Mei tahun lalu.

Noraniza tidak pernah berahsia. Secara terbuka, dia mengakui hatinya dimiliki seorang pegawai kanan tentera berusia 51 tahun. Malah, hubungan rapat mereka juga direstui keluarga masing-masing.

Namun, dalam keterbukaan masih ada yang dirahsiakan penyanyi dari Johor itu. Noraniza tidak pernah mendedahkan nama lelaki yang bertakhta di hatinya membuatkan pihak media tidak jemu untuk mencungkil identiti insan bertuah itu.

Langsung tidak terbit kenyataan daripada bibirnya. Tetapi, tidak pula dia menyangka dalam diam ada tulisan yang seolah-olah mahu mencabar dirinya. Menulis sewenang-wenangnya tanpa terlebih dulu bertanya kebenarannya, membuatkan hati Noraniza begitu terhiris.

“Pernah dulu ada tulisan yang menjejaskan maruah namun Ani masih bertahan. Masih mampu memaafkan orang yang berbuat salah itu. Tetapi apabila ada tulisan yang cuba menjejaskan nama baik keluarga, juga maruah orang yang dikaitkan dengan Ani, Ani tidak boleh bersabar lagi.

“Apa yang membuat Ani kecewa orang luar lebih tahu apa yang berlaku daripada Ani sendiri. Sebelum ini Ani berdiam diri bukan kerana takut bertindak. Ani cuma tidak mahu memburukkan lagi keadaan. Tetapi apabila ada tulisan yang cuba menjatuhkan reputasi serta nama baik, malah tumpuan Ani terhadap kerjaya juga terganggu, Ani terpaksa ke depan.

“Ani tidak teragak-agak untuk mengambil tindakan jika ada lagi tulisan keterlaluan,” kata Noraniza yang akrab membahasakan dirinya sebagai Ani sedikit kesal dengan laporan akhbar yang cuba menjatuhkan nama baiknya.

Pinta Ani, pena tajam yang ada di tangan media jangan disalahgunakan. Selidiki dulu kebenaran sesuatu cerita yang disampaikan. Jangan menulis membuta tuli dan akhirnya tempias dan bahang gosip itu terpaksa ditanggungnya sendirian.

“Dulu apa saja kritikan atau cerita negatif mengenai Ani ditulis, Ani ada suami untuk berkongsi kesedihan. Tetapi sekarang Ani sendirian, menjalani hidup sebagai ibu tunggal yang mencari rezeki untuk menyara diri dan dua anak.

“Menulis gosip juga kena ingat. Kerana tulisan yang tidak benar hubungan suami isteri berpecah belah. Pasangan yang ingin merujuk, langsung terputus hubungan. Malah, menimbulkan salah faham dengan mereka yang menjadi teman

“Kenapa pula orang luar yang ingin tentukan masa depan dan kehidupan peribadi Ani? Tahukah mereka tiada hak untuk menentukan hidup Ani. Ani sudah senior dalam bidang seni, sudah tidak perlu lagi kontroversi murahan seperti ini untuk popular,” katanya merujuk tulisan menyatakan hubungannya dengan lelaki itu sudah berakhir, baru-baru ini.

Ada ketikanya Noraniza sendiri kurang mengerti mengapa cerita peribadinya kerap dijadikan sendaan. Apakah kerana statusnya sebagai ibu tunggal membenarkan masyarakat di luar membuat andaian melulu?

Kata penyanyi yang masyhur dengan lagu irama tradisional itu, meskipun dia bebas untuk mencorakkan hidupnya sejak kembali sendiri masih ada batasan yang dipatuhinya. Dia akur tidak hanya membawa namanya apabila sepasang kakinya melangkah, sebaliknya dia masih punya keluarga dan dua anak yang perlu dipelihara.

“Selepas ini, apa saja yang berlaku biar Ani simpan sendiri. Biar Ani saja yang merasainya. Ani tidak mahu maruah Ani diperkotak-katikkan lagi. Ani masih ada perikemanusiaan dan kerana itu, Ani berharap pihak media jangan lagi mendengar cerita daripada pihak lain.

“Mereka harus ingat diam tidak semestinya Ani suka atau menyetujui apa yang ditulis,” katanya.

Dalam keadaan diasak hingga memberinya tekanan, malah tumpuan terhadap perniagaan juga sedikit terganggu, penyanyi yang popular dengan lagu Awallah Dondang dan Dikir Puteri bersyukur kerana keluarga masih teguh berdiri di belakangnya.

Dua anak lelakinya mengerti beban perasaan yang terpaksa ditanggungnya. Malah, dalam keadaan bersedih serta terkilan, anaknya masih setia di sisi untuk memujuk dan mententeramkan perasaannya.

“Syukur kerana dalam keadaan terduduk, mereka memujuk dan mententeramkan perasaan. Ani berkongsi apa saja dengan mereka, malah kedua-dua anak Ani itu seperti kawan. Merekalah nyawa Ani ketika ini,” katanya mengenai dua anak lelakinya, Mohd Alif Haikal, 17, serta Mohd Alfeq Haikal, 13.

Barangkali semua persoalan itu akan terlerai apabila mereka berdua disatukan? Sengaja persoalan itu diajukan. Segera Noraniza memintas, agenda perkahwinan masih belum ada dalam diari hidupnya lantaran dirinya yang sibuk dengan pelbagai urusan.

“Jadual Ani penuh hingga hujung tahun kerana saya mensasarkan untuk mengasaskan sebuah bengkel yang menggabungkan entiti kesihatan, budaya dan ilmiah, seterusnya dilanjutkan dalam bentuk penerbitan cakera padat dan video cakera padat (VCD).

“Semua itu memerlukan kajian yang teliti dan selepas itu, Ani juga sibuk dengan pembikinan album baru berkonsepkan revival. Awal tahun depan pula album irama global terbaru Ani akan menemui pasaran.

“Jadi soal jodoh itu masih belum Ani fikirkan lagi. Andai nanti Tuhan membukakan pintu hati, Insya-Allah Ani akan kembali bergelar isteri. Bila dan masanya, hanya Allah yang mempunyai jawapan itu,” katanya.

INFO:
DIA mendirikan rumah tangga kira-kira 18 tahun lalu dengan Mohd Fauzi Tajuddin (Fareez), 42, dan dikurniakan dua cahaya mata lelaki. Pasangan ini bagaimanapun, bercerai apabila Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Kuala Lumpur mengesahkannya pada 4 Mei 2006.

AWAL tahun ini penyanyi itu membuat pengakuan hatinya sudah dimiliki. Lelaki istimewa itu adalah seorang pegawai kanan tentera berusia 51 tahun. Ketika itu lelaki berkenaan berada di luar negara kerana mengikuti kursus.

NORANIZA berkata, dia menyenangi perwatakan lelaki yang mula dikenalinya sejak Julai 2006. Namun, demi menjaga nama, mereka jarang keluar bersama. Biasanya telefon menjadi pengerat hubungan.

NORANIZA juga membuat pengakuan sudah menemui keluarga lelaki itu pada musim Aidiladha yang lalu. Bagaimanapun, hingga ini, mereka belum mengambil kata putus bila akan mengakhiri hubungan itu dengan perkahwinan.

Special thanx to Bro Nasa

This entry is specially made as a dedication to my UK-based Nasyeed Group :: Soutus Salam :: for paving yet another everlasting memory into the history of my life :: Indeed I am truly honoured and with all my heart, I would like to express my upmost gratitude towards every single effort made by the group, especially by its respectful group manager, Mr Mohd Faizal Mohd Fathil, for he has made an amazing job to bring about the name of our Nasyeed team to the heart of the United Kingdom ::

Thank you ever so much for having me as one of the team representative during the night :: The experience I had was truly DEAR & INVALUABLE :: The chance I had to represent the millions of Malaysian students in the UK :: The opportunity I had to share my voice with the world :: The platform I had to finally perform the song Ghurabaa to be heard by many - A dream came true!!

Words alone wouldn't suffice to show how much I value this unforgettable experience :: For what is worth, I will now have something extra-vaganza to talk about when I get back to Malaysia ensyallah as a doctor one day :: That I was once a Medical student who sang Ghurabaa in the UK National TV!! & all thanx to God & of course YOU!!

For the extra millions of time, I THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH for EVERYTHING!!

Is Our World DOOMED??!

2007-05-13T23:51:00.000+01:00

1st there was Palestine
Then there was Chechnya
Next came Afghanistan
Seconds later came Iraq
Suddenly striked India
Eventually striked Sri Lanka
Dont forget Darfur & Euthopia
And the neighbouring Thai & Indonesia
Who's next?? Iran??
Owh wait.. Something is currently happening in Pakistan

Our World is DEFINITELY DOOMED!!

We should always remember how NAGASAKI & HIROSHIMA were DOOMED by the HANDS OF MEN

I can understand the hatreds against 'The Axis of Evils' :: Fighting to death against terror-breeder Zionists and BUSH-Led USA!! :: But hatreds against fellow bretheren??!! I don't quite get it.. In fact I DON'T GET IT AT ALL!!

Are we to create DOOMSDAY on the basis of BROTHERHOOD?? What madness is this??!! That a group of people would think that they are TOO SUPERIOR to be questioned and criticized?? That their thoughts are ALWAYS RIGHT and what others think are ALWAYS WRONG??!! That they would PUT ASIDE any INDIFFERENCES & TERMINATE each other over mere DIFFERENCES??!! ARE WE HUMANS NOT BROTHERS ANYMORE??!

We were once NOBODY :: ALL OF US :: LORD turned us into SOMEBODY :: HE is the ONLY ONE ELLIGIBLE to see through our DIFFERENCES :: We on the other hand are ONLY qualified to look for our INDIFFERENCES :: LIVE THE SIMILARITIES AS BROTHERS :: Is that so much so IMPOSSIBLE??!!

Do POLITICS know not the meaning of BROTHERHOOD??
When FATAH fights against HAMAS..
And the SUNNIs and SYI'Is killing each other..
And the Pro-MUSHARRAFs silence the ANTIs on the price of BLOODS..

DO WE NO LONGER ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN FRIENDS & FOES??
DOES BROTHERHOOD NO LONGER EXIST AGAINST POLITICAL IDEOLOGIES??
DO FIGTHS HAVE TO CONTINUE AMONGST BROTHERS??
IS WORLD PEACE THEREFORE A MYTH??!!

IS IT WORTH ASKING HUMANS TO STOP THE WAR??!!
... ... ...
... ...
...

ONLY GOD KNOWS

Bertandang hai datang... Bertandang
Tandang tandang selayang pandang... Memandang
Tujuh gunung tujuh lautan
Tujuh sungai tujuh banjaran
Tujuh lapis langit dan awan gemawan
Tandang bermadah kami dendangkan

Mimpi kame hai mimpi nangganya si Bauk
(oi nangganya si Bauk)
Oi nangganya si Bauk..
Budi tanah juak yang elok.. di hilir ceruk

Lagi Dipesan hai pesan madahnya si Tugau
(dengar madahnya si Tugau)
Titis peluh tangannya dirik juak yang baik
Nak kame dirikan selaung mungkin sang Tibau

Di sini di sana di situ tetap gembira
Berkenan sungguh di hati
Kami dek menengok nengoknya
Ragam tari Puteri si Tugau
Lenggang lenggok nan gemalai
Sana sini merawan sukma

Di sitok di sia di sinun tetak gembira
Berkenan gilak oi hati
Kame toO nangga sidaknya
Ragam tandak Puteri si Bauk
Lenggang lenggok liuk lintuknya
Sia sitok merawan sukma

Nyata sik beza indahnya sik asing jiwanya
Budaya dikelek kesenian dikendong
Seganding madahnya seiring pesannya
Julangkan pusaka oi Selaung bak sang Tibau

Hai bertandang kame bertandang sambil berpesan
Madah pusaka semangat Bumi Kenyalang
Hai tumpang berteduh di bah payung nan gemilang
Warisan rumpun seni berseri seri Saguntang

Laksana sebesarnya bumi seteguhnya hati
Seluasnya langit seluruh jiwanya bangkit
Semegahnya Rentap segagahnya harap
Nei Kenyalang mandang oi.. di sia cita tersandang

La la la la la la
Adai adai na indung dayang si andeng
Andeng si dayang indung

Tandang Bermadah unveils the appreciation of multi-racial congregations - prosperity by the various traditional elements, ethnical histories and sectarians identities :: It simply portrays the beauty of life when brotherhoods take no barriers amongst humanity ::

This fusion ethnic song was first recorded by Noraniza Idris in 2002 for her debut album Aura :: The solo version of the song uses the Borneo traditional rhythms as its ethnical concepts, featuring the Sarawakians and Malay language combined together into one lengthy lyrics :: In Lenggok Noraniza Idris, this song was re-recorded as a duet with Bob AF2 (a Sarawakian himself), upgraded into a more modernized music with energetic beat, yet preserving its very ethnical essence :: Bob, despite being a newbie to the local musical industry, performed so very well in the song :: The Ulu, Bidayuh, Iban & Melanau ethnical rhythms are no alien to him hence enabling him to bring about his own identity into this great masterpiece :: His full commitment towards the 3-consecutive-days (5 hours spent on the last day!) recording process results in this everlasting memorable duet of Tandang Bermadah with the nation Traditional Pop Diva - Noraniza Idris

I personally fond of Tandang Bermadah since its solo version :: Noraniza's vocal performance through the song outstood all others, especially the introductory bit :: Lenggok nyer MAUT YG AMAT!! Aku sampai skang dok try belajo nak tiru Lenggok Kak Ani.. Tak bley2 gak buat sejiban sama cam Kak Ani.. Tensy bley??!! LOL :: Now that the song has been re-recorded into a better duet version, I have no reason at all not to put Tandang Bermadah duet Bob AF2 as one of my favourite songs!! Nak nak lagi aku dok menaruh harapan.. Mana tau one day I'd get the chance to sing this song duet with Kak Ani gak!! Wahahaha.. BERANGANNNN; JANGAN TAK BERANGANNNN!! :P

Semi Final AJL 2003

Final AJL 2003

Zoom In Noraniza Idris (2007)
(Special THANX to 5band from YouTube for this very rare clip!!)

I would also like to take this opportunity to WARMLY CONGRATULATE Waheeda for the success in the production of her latest album :: MELODI AHLAN :: Indeed, all the waits, all the money, all the efforts, ALL ARE TOTALLY WORTH IT!! :: This is by far the BEST ALBUM produced by a local artist which has won my heart hands-down!! I felt soooo attached to every single song that were compiled in it (all of which are able to consume my musical soul in just ONE DAY!!) :: By far, MELODI AHLAN is ranked No. 1 in my list of favourite album, overtaking the previously-occupied territory of My Ummah (by Sami Yusuf)

I guess Noraniza Idris has one heck of a job to be done to re-win my heart and let her album be ranked No. 1 in my list hehe :: Sawo Matang (by Noraniza Idris) was the crown-album before My Ummah took over the title last year!! By all means, win back the title, KAK ANI!! ;)

Once again, ALF MABROOK YA WAHEEDA!! JANNANTI-NI!!

Nevertheless, I have to confess that life has been quite demanding lately, and therefore I would need to appologize in advance if my 'come back' is not yet in its full form :: Will try to catch up with things, but tak janji la weyy.. bley tahan bz giler gak la menjelang akhir term ni ;)

Hubbati Li Waheeda

2007-03-09T20:16:00.000Z

Bisikan Hubahku berbaur Gundah..

Everybody knows :: My HUBAH for Noraniza Idris is unquestionable :: But what some doesnt know is that, besides her, there are many other LOVE OF MY HEARTS - amongst whom Waheeda is sitting around the top of my list - just slightly below Noraniza in hierarchy!! And honestly after reading this article from Utusan.com my heart is SHRED into pieces!! I was blown off - Surprised & SHOCKED by the press-statement ::

I adore Waheeda not only for her style of musics and vocal skills, but also for her personality, credibility and celeb-quality :: HONESTLY, WHO ELSE IS THERE IN MALAYSIA who came out and about as a singer, totally preserving the Hijab appearance, let alone being famous, fully educated and fluent in LANGUAGES!!

She IS definitely ONE OF A KIND :: Sugar, Spice & Everything is NICE about her :: Sweet; Cute; Lovely; Smart; Adorable; You NAME IT!! The list is endless!!

I therefore see this as a GREAT LOSS to our local music industry :: If Waheeda happens to decide not to persue her musical career any longer :: We need a healthy local musical environment :: And for that, we need people like Waheeda around!!

Shame.. Personal path in life is of no bussiness of mine..
Whatever she decides, LET IT BE..
But WAHEEDA will always be EL-WAHEEDAH FI QALBI... THOOL 3OMRI.. BI-KULLI DAWAAM!!

Waheeda sedia berundur diri dari dunia seni
Oleh Nor Fadzilah Baharudin

“Saya bersedia meninggalkan bidang seni pada bila-bila masa.” Begitu kata Waheeda ketika ditemui selepas menjaya showcase Suria fm di ibu kota, baru-baru ini.

“Sebab sekarang saya bekerja sebagai pengarah pemasaran di sebuah syarikat penerbitan. Jadi besar kemungkinan saya akan ke Dubai untuk kerja-kerja pemasaran pada akhir tahun ini. Dan saya tak tahu berapa lama saya akan berada di sana,” jelas Waheeda tentang kesediaannya berundur diri daripada bidang seni.

Biarpun sudah enam tahun terlibat dalam bidang seni, kata Waheeda, dia tidak berasa rugi sekiranya keputusan untuk berundur dilakukannya.

“Kalau saya berhenti menyanyi mungkin saya masih lagi terlibat dalam kerja-kerja belakang tabir. Saya akan menghasilkan lagu-lagu untuk penyanyi lain dan dalam pada itu saya boleh beri tumpuan pada kerja-kerja saya sebagai pengarah pemasaran,” katanya.

Cinta terhalang

Apakah mungkin keputusan itu dibuat kerana ada kaitan dengan hubungan cintanya yang ditentang oleh keluarga kekasihnya?

Tersenyum penyanyi bertudung lingkup ini tatkala ditanyakan soalan itu. Namun Waheeda enggan mengiya atau menafikannya.

Pun begitu, Waheeda mengakui memang hubungan cintanya baru-baru ini melalui dugaan hebat sehingga mencabar perancangannya untuk menyimpul ikatan perkahwinan dengan seorang jejaka kacukan Arab pada penghujung tahun ini.

“Saya sendiri tak sangka akan jadi begini selepas setahun kami berkawan. Hubungan kami baik dan tiada masalah. Malah saya sendiri pernah berjumpa dengan ibunya. Ibunya okay, dapat menerima saya tapi saudara mara dia tak dapat menerima saya hanya kerana saya bukan wanita berdarah kacukan Arab,” kata Waheeda terus terang.

Reda dengan keadaan itu, kata Waheeda, hubungannya dengan bekas kekasihnya itu masih juga terjalin hingga hari ini.

“Kami masih meneruskan hubungan. Tapi cuma sebagai kawan sebab antara kami tak ada masalah,” katanya.

Akuinya lagi, peringkat awal kekecewaan itu ditempuhinya, dia berasa sangat tertekan. Tetapi alhamdulillah, semua itu ditanganinya dengan baik.

Melodi Ahlan album terakhir

Mungkin juga Melodi Ahlan akan menjadi buah tangan terakhir daripada Waheeda. Album yang mengambil waktu pembikinan selama setengah tahun itu dijangka akan menemui peminat seni tempatan sekitar Mac ini.

“Saya bertindak selaku penerbit dan menghasilkan lima buah lagu. Lima lagu lagi dicipta oleh komposer lain termasuk Cat Farish, Yassin, Hafiz Unic dan kawan-kawan sendiri.

“Album ini juga menampilkan banyak kelainan. Antaranya lirik iaitu ada lima bahasa (Arab, Inggeris, Sepanyol, Hindi dan Afrika) dan adik saya turut serta dengan bermain gitar untuk beberapa lagu. Tapi album ini masih mengekal konsep terdahulu iaitu World Music. Keseluruhannya saya berpuas hati dengan album ini kerana sepenuhnya idea saya,” katanya mengenai album tersebut yang diterbitkan bersama-sama MIG Records.

Tambah Waheeda lagi, album tersebut juga mungkin album terakhir dirinya bersama MIG Records.

“Kontrak saya bersama MIG akan berakhir tahun ini. Saya sendiri tak tahu sama ada mahu melanjutkan kontrak atau tidak,” katanya.

Lenggok Selalu ~ IV ~ ASYIK BISIKAN HUBAH

2007-03-03T21:36:00.000Z

ASYIK BISIKAN HUBAH

Composer: Mohar
Lyrics: Loloq
Artist: Noraniza Idris feat. Mohar

Ku diserang geligis
Sewaktu tabir kasih kau terkuis
Nur bari berselirat

Rindu ragam
Rindu dendam
Rindu rawan

Terpegan ragaku
Terpatri jiwaku
Perasaan tak terlukis bahasa

Terpegun zahirku
Terkunci batinku

Aduh kau terpuja
Di kala malam hiba
Menjelma pun sudah
Di depan mata

Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Kau ufuk cahaya
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Lontaran makna semesta
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Cinta pesona
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Dalam dada manusia

Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Kau sumber segala
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Ruang mimpi alam fana
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Bisikan hubah
Asyik Bisikan Hubah
Ke segenap rupa nyawa

This song (originally called Pawaka Pawana) was first heard by Noraniza Idris in December 2005, when a group called Mohram performed this song in its instrumental version in Penang (invited as guest artists in conjunction with the Extra Vaganza Malaysia/Singapore programme by RTM) :: Felt strongly attached and attracted towards the melodious flute-based rhythm, Noraniza immediately asked for Mohar's consent to compile the song as her second debut in Lenggok 20 Tahun (after Racau Sang Khalifah) :: Mohar, being extremely cooperative, generously allowed Noraniza the privilege of ownership upon the song :: The song was then re-arrranged by Noraniza to suit her style with help from Firdaus, her music arranger - a difficult job indeed at first, but succesfully done to produce a delightful newly-arranged melody, entitled Asyik Bisikan Hubah ::

Asyik Bisikan Hubah potrays a Javanese ethnic element with a modernized music composition, preserving the flute as its essence, whilst the traditional element being strongly characterized by and beautified with a carefully-tuned vocal performance by Noraniza herself :: The lyrics tale about LOVE - humanity's spiritual motivation and source of strength in facing challenges in life!!

I personally find that this song is very stimulating indeed!! From all the songs compiled in Lenggok 20 Tahun, ASYIK BISIKAN HUBAH IS BY FAR THE BEST!! This would be the 3rd time that Noraniza has ever featured a Javanese-based song in her albums (after Putera Lantai Emas in AURA & Hatinya Tak Tahan in SAWO MATANG) :: Nevertheless, ASYIK BISIKAN HUBAH still stands as one of a kind!! It does not at all resembles Noraniza's previous Javanese musics :: The fresh music arrangement together with Noraniza's powerful Javanese vocal presentation really makes me think that this song can actually become one of her HIT songs - equating or perhaps even exceeding her achievement with HATINYA TAK TAHAN ::

However, this is just my perception of the possible consequences given that ASYIK BISIKAN HUBAH is promoted all over Malaysia :: The fact is, this might not just happen - at least not YET! WHY?? Simply because the song hasn't been able to get through the local market due to our local radio stations not keen about playing the song over their channels :: It is quite a shame that this song is not as popular :: Perhaps it needs more time?? Who knows..

For what is worth, I salute Noraniza for the production of Asyik Bisikan Hubah :: What about you?? What do you think about the song?? If you will, do give your comments or opinions about this song in the comment box!!

Song Project

2007-03-01T12:25:00.000Z

The nearly-a-week-long recording process has finally come to an end! After much configuration, editing, enhancing and compiling, I have successfully finalize the tune for the song given to me by Bro Fedtri Yahya :: Thanx to your contribution :: Sarah, Nadhrah, WanZue, MinCi & Mirul :: this song has been compiled in a special way that 2 versions are recorded simultaneously :: Pop-Balad & Traditional Ethnic styles :: Beza Sama Berbeda & Di Atas Layar Cinta

To those of you who are new to A-N-I and haven't got the chance to get to know bro Ahmad Fedtri Yahya :: He is indeed an icon for Noraniza Idris :: He is by far the main reason why I can get so attached to Noraniza Idris today :: He is AHMAD FEDTRI YAHYA - the one and only hehe

He works for TV3, amongst the programs of which he hosts are Malaysia Hari Ini, Siti Nurhaliza's Wedding, etc (there's one new program he got in charge quite recently but i just cant remember) :: He also writes lyrics for Malaysia local artists including Noraniza Idris & most recently Nora & Liza Hanim ::

It is an honour for me to get to know him in person, & here's the song which was produced by Sharon Paul, lyrics written by him & me being given the honour to sing the DEMO version!! Many thanx bro Fedtri for this experience!! I hope you'll like this song as much as you like all the previous ones!!

ETHNIC TRADITIONAL style

Lyrics by
AHMAD FEDTRI YAHYA

Perlimbahan demi perlimbahan
Pergunungan demi pergunungan
Tak terjumpa ulas cinta tinggalanmu dulu

Ku cari jua dalam gelita
Walau bintang kesuraman
Persis senja kelam di mega
Kaku dilanda…. Rawan

C/O
Semua demi mimpi
Yang memanggil kembaraku
Ku pasti kan terus mengorak warna
Taman kencana

Dalam jiwa ini
Ku hamparkan sang kejora
Biar nanti
Cahayanya pancarkan sakti

Bridge
Rintiskanlah jejak-jejak laluan
Biarkanku mencari
Kasih arjuna
Untuk ku julang
Di atas layar cinta..

POP-BALAD style

Lyrics by
MOHAMMAD IHAB ISMAIL
feat. SARAH, NADHRAH, WANZUE, MINCI & MIRUL

Verse1
Bagai dalam jurang di lautan
Bagai jauh mega di awangan
Hakikatnya kelahiran kau & aku berbeza

Umpama kilau intan permata
Terbandingkan silauan kaca
Biarpun sekilas tampak serupa
Namun zahirnya tetap berbeda

C/O
Hentilah kau membenci
Rintihan naluri ini
Terima daku seadanya
Aku hadir begini

Usah Diperdaya
Bayang beza perbedaan
Semarakkan lakaran persamaan
Antara kita

Verse2
Walau dalam jurang di lautan
Walau jauh mega di awangan
Hakikatnya kelahiran kita luhurnya sama

Umpama kilau intan permata
Terbandingkan silauan kaca
Biarpun jauhari mampu membeda
Seri di mata tampak serupa

Bridge
Usai hasad lara
Sembilu berbisa
Yang menusuk di jiwa
Meracun sukma
Menuba cinta
Luka selamanya

p/s: Sarah, Nadh, WanZue, Minci & Mirul - korg nak tak lagu ni?? Kalo nak bagi mail kat aku ;) Nanti aku forward - korg bley ngomel2 hehe

Di Atas Layar CINTA

2007-02-22T21:11:00.000Z

BEZA SAMA BERBEDA

Verse1
Bagai dalam jurang di lautan
Bagai jauh mega di awangan
Hakikatnya kelahiran kau & aku berbeza

Umpama kilau intan permata
Terbandingkan silauan kaca
Biarpun sekilas tampak serupa
Namun zahirnya tetap berbeda

Chorus
Hentilah kau membenci
Rintihan naluri ini
Terima daku seadanya
Aku hadir begini

Jangan kau dibuta
Bayang beza perbedaan
Semarakkan lakaran persamaan
Antara kita

Verse2
Walau dalam jurang di lautan
Walau jauh mega di awangan
Hakikatnya kelahiran kita luhurnya sama

Umpama kilau intan permata
Terbandingkan silauan kaca
Biarpun jauhari mampu membeda
Namun di mata seri nan sama

Bridge
Usah terperdaya
Amarah di dada
Yang mengaburi minda
Meracun kasih
Menuba cinta
Jiwa manusia

This entry is made coz I wanna join my beloved GUBUans Miss MinCi & Mr Irzan mumbling about LOVE :: I donno what happened to these 2 GUBUans which made them write some JIWANG JIWING type of entry on LittleHealer & LifeInside :: But for the excitement - although aku haram tak pernah melibatkan jiwa nurani aku ni dalam aroma perCHENTAan - I wanna JOIN them MUMBLING ABOUT LOVE & LIFE too - My STYLE of course!! hehe

Now, before I start - I have to tell you guys a story :: Some have already been told bout this, others not :: Regardless, this stroy is crucial for you to understand what is needed from this entry :: But this story is LOOOONGGG!! So, IF YOU GUYS cant be bothered to read them all - SKIPPY SKIP to the FINAL bit where I put the banner as your guide, ok??

Here goes... ... ...

You see, my life totally changed since I made acquaintance with La Diva Noraniza for the 1st time back in 2004 in TMMAK Melaka :: I got to know mANIra :: I got to be closer to Noraniza in person :: I got to be featured in her album!! :: I got to be on TV!! :: I got this :: I got that :: Dont wanna bother listing it all here :: Point is - much of my dreams CAME TRUE :: & if there's only one person I should be thankful to - THE PERSON HAS TO BE my most beloved Mr Fedtri Yahya!!

Fedtri Yahya is a very strong icon for Noraniza Idris :: To date he has been writing up lyrics for not only Noraniza but also other leading artists in Malaysia including Nora and Liza Hanim :: He is ONE HACK OF A GUY when it comes to Malay Prosa Klasik bla bla :: Being a genius in this regard, he has gained much trusts from many of our local composers who want him to write lyrics for their songs :: One of whom is SHARON PAUL ::

And so it happened that once upon a time, Mr Fedtri Yahya :: having believed strongly in my 'talent' - TQ abang!! hehe :: forwarded to me one of the songs which SHARON gave to him so that I can help him in melodizing the song - to see if the lyrics FIT with the music :: Well well well - ME BEING ME is just SOOO SIMPLY ME!! Silap besar la org kasi aku lagu - aku buat jadi cam HAK MILIK AKU gitu haha :: And so I sang for him the song with a lil' bit of changes made here and there :: And I forwarded the 'end-product' to Mr Fedtri Yahya...

And so SILAP BESAR GAK LA aku mengada2 berLENGGOK sakan :: Mr Fedtri Yahya, having fallen in love with my LENGGOK style, forwarded the song to SHARON PAUL :: Wawaweee !! & SHARON too happened to like my version of the SONG!! Maka dengan itu, bermulalah satu sejarah baru dalam idop aku :: To date, I have been asked for quite a few times to collaborate with SHARON & FEDTRI in making MUSICS & LYRICS - Hohoyeaaa!!!

All thanx to Mr FEDTRI YAHYA!! I think this thing can be a cool credit for me to write in my CV rite?? What u think guys?? Hohohoo...

Cut it short la ek.. The hack does this story got to do with my entry, rite? :: SIMPLE - Abg FEDT tersayang has forwarded one latest song to me :: And the song is entitled DI ATAS LAYAR CINTA...

YERPPP GUYS!! CINTAAAAAAAAA!!! haha - kira ok la tu.. One word to justified my intention of wanting to join Miss MinCi & Mr Irzan mumbling about LOOOVVVEEEEE hahaha..

OK OK... Surely u dont expect this entry to end here rite?? Coz I havent told u about the lyrics I put above.. What has it got to do with our WHOLE STORY..

Again.. To cut it short - this song BUNYI GILER POP-BALAD HABIS!! But TO MY AMAZEMET bro FEDTRI asked me to sing it with LENGGOK NORANIZA IDRIS's style :: I tell you, IT IS ONE HACK OF A JOB!!! Warghhhh!! Kepala aku naik kematu pk cara nak bawak lagu ni tau!! PENINGGGG!! Sekali dua dengar lagu ni ada cam WINTER SONATA kot (approved by my beloved roomie - WanZul hehe).. Tak alih2 nak kena bawak gaya AWALLAH DONDANG - camne tu??!!!

NOWWWW!! Here comes YOUR PART, GUYS!! YESSSSSS!!! I NEED YOUR HELP WITH THIS ONE!!

My plan is to sing this song in 2 style, OK.. Mr FEDTRI gave me a lyric which I should use.. But due to the fact that I need to KILL the Pop-Balad rhythm from this song, I wanna MAKE ONE COMPLETE POP-BALAD style FIRST so that I can identify what sort of Pop-Balad rhtyhms that I need to INJECT WITH LETHAL DOSE OF Anaesthetic and TRANSPLANT a new ETHNICAL & TRADITIONAL style in the song!! I have already got the IDEA mapped in my PALA OTAK... hehe

What I want you guys to help me with is amend my LYRICS for the Pop-Balad style which I've made above :: Kaifiyat dia?? Easy bz... Read the LYRICS :: Ammend any inappropriate or non-poetic words :: And LET ME KNOW OF YOUR IDEAS in the COMMENT BOX

Points to note :: I want the theme to be based on one of LifeInside's entry entitled PERSAMAAN DAN PERBEZAAN :: The lyrics should endeavour the meaning of DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITY in HUMAN NATURE :: Lantak korg la nak merapu apa.. Yg penting tema tak lari :: Plus, ANY AMMENDMENTS made must use the SAME AMOUNT of SUKU KATA as per contained in my original lyrics ::

What can you get from collaborating with me in this PROJECT?? Wahuhuu... Sorry I CANT OFFER YOU MONEY :: Money CANNOT BUY LOVE & HAPPINESS - rite Mirul??? hehehe.. But the LEAST that I can offer is TO LET YOU LISTEN TO THE SONG after I've compiled it - HOW DOES THAT SOUND?!! OK ke??...

Plz do HELP ME here, guys!! I wanna make this PROJECT an EXTRAVAGANZA MEGA ONE!! Coz I need to win Bro FEDT's & SHARON's hearts, both at the same time :: & I believe you guys can help me DO THAT!!

I thank you in advance.. The lyrics will be finalized BEFORE SUNDAY the 25th of FEB - SO PLZ HURRY UP PEEPS!!
I'm awaiting your brilliant IDEASSSS :D
