JAKARTA: There are many ways to show one’s support for an issue, and a handful of musicians including rock band Netral vocalist and bassist Bagus Dhanar Dhana have chosen the language they know best: music.
Adding a slight twist to movie soundtrack “Garuda Di Dadaku” (Garuda in My Heart), which his band sang for a recently released family entertainment film, Bagus – along with composer Fariz R.M. and singer Once – states his support for the currently troubled Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).
So together, they sing “KPK di Dadaku”.
“This is our way of supporting the KPK. The lyrics criticize certain people,” Bagus said, as quoted by detikhot.com without giving further details.
“Slank had done it before and their song caused quite a havoc at the DPR [the House of Representatives],” he added.
“We’re not afraid of that. The skeleton will eventually come out of the closet.” — JP
