While I was out earlier to @Office2010SG‘s Launch Party earlier on at *SCAPE Youth Park, I read tweets about @RozeKasmani‘s Media Launch last month being featured on @MediaCorp_Suria‘s JUS! held at Badoque Cafe.
With the kind invitation from Gumbira, I was at the media launch to promote her new single, “Harum” which has been on the airwaves now since the first debut on a Warna 94.2FM interview back in early April.
It’s been 5 weeks already since “Harum” debuted on the Ria 89.7FM charts. The highest the single, went on was No. 2, 3 weeks back. So fans, keep on requesting “Harum” to go up the charts.
“Harum” is actually a Malay version of an original composition by @ImranAjmain & @iamalyph called, “Perfume“. You can watch the original version also sang by @RozeKasmani back in 2006, in the video below:
Catering to the Malay music industry, “Perfume” has been re-written in Malay by @shahshamshiri, who is also known as the composer of Faizal Tahir‘s “Mahakarya Cinta“.
During the media preview, Roze sang “Perfume“, “Tamak” & lastly the single “Harum“. Below is Abdillah Zamzuri‘s quick & quirky interview with Roze, and Iskandar Sa’ad‘s nicely done video of Roze’s “Harum” performance:
Here are the lyrics to sing along to:
Title: Harum
Artiste: Roze Kasmani

Kau membangkitkan naluri
Penuhi rongga
Kehadiranmu pasti
Menembusi jiwa
Bagaikan irama
Atau buahan segar
Kau terangkan gelita
Cahaya sebenar
Namun ku terlewat
Singgahanmu sebentar
Aku ingin mendapat
Nikmat yang terbesar
Ku idamkan lagi
Kau yang ku kasihi
Kau haruman mimpi
Yang lama ku cari
Chorus
Wajahmu bak manisan
Bibir menawan
Belum pun ku cuba
Tapi dicerita
Matamu cahaya
Suara mu irama
Cintamu wangian
Terus berkekalan
(Terus berkekalan, terus berkekalan)
Kau membangkitkan naluri
Penuhi rongga
Kehadiranmu pasti
Menembusi jiwa
Namun ku terlewat
Singgahanmu sebentar
Aku ingin mendapat
Nikmat yang terbesar
Ku idamkan lagi
Kau yang ku kasihi
Kau haruman mimpi
Yang lama ku cari
Cintamu harum………
The guitarist, Shun Ng, who played along side Roze, had fingers of a brilliant guitarist! Kudos! Lastly, what can I say about @Badoque_Cafe‘s food reception thereafter, naan to die for~ haha!
