"This song was indeed created when I was in courtship with Al, El, Dul's mother. So, this song is specifically for Al, El, Dul's mother (Maia). It's not the song Kangen, so I'm not avoiding the fact that there was no song created for Maia Estianty. The song Kangen was actually created for someone else when I had a girlfriend at that time. Then we broke up, and I started courting Al, El, Dul's mother," explained Ahmad Dhani.
