Eltasya Displays Emotional Side Through Remake of Song 'Harus Terpisah'

"The meaning of this song is about the journey of a long-established relationship, where only one party is fighting until they ultimately have to choose to separate," said Eltasya while sharing the meaning behind the song.  

Eltasya admitted that she was interested in covering this song because its message resonates closely with the experiences of many people. She wants to convey that story again from her own perspective, with a softer yet still touching nuance.

The recording and production process of this song became a new experience for the 21-year-old singer. This song was produced by Aldi Nada Permana, the person behind many successful works in the Indonesian music industry.

Although I don't have personal experience like that depicted in the lyrics, Eltasya tries to bring the emotions to life in every stanza.

"I try to place myself as if I were in that position, so I can truly convey the feelings from the lyrics and melody," she said.

Of all the lyrics, the part that touches Eltasya the most is 'I try to reach for dreams, you try to stop the dreams.' According to her, this line depicts the imbalance in a relationship when only one party still wants to fight. Reinterpreting a song that is already popular is not an easy task.

"Because this song has existed before and is incredibly good, the challenge is how I can perform it with my own version and character," she explained.

With a gentle yet emotionally strong interpretation, Eltasya hopes that her listeners can feel the sincerity she pours into every note. "I hope through this song people can get to know me better and also fall in love with my version of Harus Terpisah," she concluded.
