I've just downloaded some songs of my favorite singer of my childhood, Sherina. She's just a few years older - so, when she was famous, she was also still a kid.


Eventhough those are songs for kids, I noticed that the songs are much more meaningful than adult songs these days. I hate Indonesian songs. It's just because they're monotone, uncreative, and MEANINGLESS. All they sing about is: love. You can count it by yourself, from all Indonesian songs made within a year, how many of them are love songs. I'm pretty sure the result will be, at least, over 80%.

One of the songs sang by Sherina says: "... look everything closer, then you can see more wisely." Or, another song says: "...every human on earth have ever been hurted, but just those with noble heart forgive."

I was amazed when I listen carefully to the songs. I never realized how meaningful it is before. Even kids' songs used to be meaningful. Unfortunately, now, even a 5-year-old kid can sing adult songs well.


How ironic.
