Hello Hive Open Mic brothers and sisters who remain in good spirits. Greetings and blessings to all. My name is Zein Grind from @indonesiabersatu band, back at the weekly #OpenMic event which has entered its 195th week, with the theme "Amistad" chosen by our friend @nazatpt. This is an interesting theme.

I really like discussing the topic of friendship, because friendship is so important in our lives. Friends are people we can rely on. Friends are always there for us when we need support, both joy and sorrow. In addition, a friend will help us grow and develop as individuals. A friend can give us a new perspective and help us learn from their experiences. A friendship will give us a sense of happiness and fulfillment. Because friendship will strengthen each other.

But, there are times when friendships become tenuous due to differences of opinion. Differences of opinion are natural in every relationship, including friendships. I experienced this in 2019. At that time I had two close friends, but due to differences in political views, the three of us were no longer close. It was during the election period. There were two presidential candidates running. My first friend supported a presidential candidate who leaned towards religious people, my second friend supported a presidential candidate who leaned towards nationalism, and I didn't support either of them because I didn't like identity politics. Initially, my two friends started to fall out because of their different political choices. I tried to bring them back together and told them not to be too fanatical about politics and ideology. But in the end, I was also shunned for not supporting one of them.

From my experience, I covered the song Kepompong by Sindentosca for my two friends who are no longer close to me. This song was released in 2017. Written by Jalu Hikmat Fitriadi. This song also became the soundtrack of the movie with the same title. Overall, this song tells the story of a friendship that used to be so warm, close, and inseparable but now it has become the opposite. Although it has long been released, this song is still widely sung. Below are the lyrics of the song Kepompong by Sindentosca.

Indonesian Lyrics

Dulu kita sahabat, teman begitu hangat
Mengalahkan sinar mentari
Dulu kita sahabat, berteman bagai ulat
Berharap jadi kupu-kupu

Kini kita berjalan berjauh-jauhan
Kau jauhi diriku karna sesuatu
Mungkin ku terlalu bertindak kejauhan
Namun itu karna ku sayang

Persahabatan bagai kepompong
Mengubah ulat menjadi kupu-kupu
Persahabatan bagai kepompong
Hal yang tak mudah berubah jadi indah

Persahabatan bagai kepompong
Maklumi teman hadapi perbedaan
Persahabatan bagai kepompong
Kepompong

English Lyrics

We used to be best friends, friends so warm
Beating the sunshine
We used to be best friends, friends like caterpillars
Hoping to become a butterfly

Now we walk far apart
You stay away from me because of something
Maybe I'm acting too far away
But that's because I love you

Friendship is like a cocoon
Turning a caterpillar into a butterfly
Friendship is like a cocoon
Things that are not easy turn out to be beautiful

Friendship is like a cocoon
Understand your friends' differences
Friendship is like a cocoon
Cocoon

In making this music video, I used the RealDrum application from my android phone to create drums, then used my electric bass. However, I gave the bass sound a distortion effect to have a punk and noise rock impression. For software, I used Adobe Audition CC for audio editing, and Capcut for video editing. Thank you very much for listening to the cover song that I played, I hope you like it. Greetings and blessings.

Is fantastic you publications. Congratulations my friend @indonesiabersatu

Thank you very much sir

Great presentation brother... A big hug God bless you!

Thank you very much my friend

Wonderful performance bro, Weldon.

Thank you very much. But for me, my performance this time was a bit bad because I had a cold, so I wasn't able to sing optimally.

I agree, friends are very important in ours lives, specially when they are able to help us grow and develop.

Great rendition to start the new year. Keep it up.

Hello mam, thank you very much 🤗

My Rockkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Brother a happy new year 2024 🔥🔥🔥... what a pleasure to hear you rocking out starting the year and I really understand perfectly what you experienced with your friends; politics polarizes the masses and blinds them, my country has been in it for more than 20 years and that is why the worst have been elected for public administration positions... politics sucks 👎!!!!!

Friends should be inseparable and respect each other's religious, political and even life stance; when I had my band, for example, each one had a different political and spiritual stance and we always respected that and treated each other as brothers, since the idea was not to make the relationship between us toxic with those issues.

Brother you did another great job, I congratulate you and thank you for continuing to represent rock in the community 🤘... You Fuc&%$ Rockkk!!!! 👊😎🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯🎅☃️🎄

Hi my brother rock. Happy New Year to you too. It's been a week since I had the flu and I couldn't sing optimally so the results were less than satisfactory. It's true, my brother, politics is so bad that it can separate and form new camps to clash with. This year is also a political year in Indonesia, but it doesn't seem to be as hot as 2019. Thank you very much for visiting me my brother, a warm hug for you 🤗🤗🔥🔥❤️‍🔥🤘🤘
