Hi Yazik. Thank you for reacting our performance video. Appreciate it! Btw, we do love a Polish band called BATUSHKA. Korang boleh check out band Batushka. Band yang bagus dari segi visual dan pembawakan identiti.
For Yazik and my fellow non malay speaker this is the lyric translation Full moon light up my sorrows Let my fiercely anxious soul fly Shining sky keep the star in your heart Let it light up and burn your heart Whistling wind Breathlessly whistling Blow the wound away Cold piercing through the heart [Corus] Embrace me oh universe Said that love give you freedom Stay near to me ether space Warmth my body through the imaginary world Sunshine light up my darkest soul Let it melt my tormented body and soul [Scream] You all cant even, Cant even break this wall Hold my hand We united fight the world [Corus] Embrace me oh universe Said that love give you freedom Stay near to me ether space Warmth my body through the imaginary world [Scream] Two soul and two world Together expecting for happiness Did you know that love is a sin? Embrace me oh universe Said that love give you freedom Said that love, Said that love, Stay close to me ether space Warmth my body through the imaginary world. P/S :- This lyrics are not straight up translated to English, but the meaning I can sure are 100% accurate. I cant explain about the song so I would love you to read the translated lyrics and interpret the song by yourself because that’s how we enjoy music 😉
@@imranyakup6627 true. My opinion the arrngement for final for that duet song is not as awesome as the original sound. Too fairytale meanwhile in original that drum sound is the one that make the song unique despite that is the ballade song.
This song has very strong lyrics. It's a mixture of various genre (traditional touch/rock/metal etc) and well-blended. I'm very confused at first listen but upon checking on the lyrics, it got me struck in awe. It is indeed unique as you can hardly find the similar lyrics/words in many other typical Malaysian songs. I particularly like the chorus where the lyrics says "pangkulah aku, wahai semesta" or roughly means "uphold me, dear universe". Truly well-deserved. Congratulations to Shila and SOG! 9:20 fyi, Shila really loves rock genre, but people love to hear she sings ballad. She said it herself😂
For your information, S.O.G and Shila Amzah are best friends. S.O.G vocalist used to play football with shila Amzah's father and also with shila.. He said. S.O.G band and Shila Amzah are just like family 💃💪
Well, I could say most of AJL fans didn't dispute the winning of SOG x Shila although we have & were rooting for our favourite singers & songs such as Aina Abdul (Sepi), Hael, Haqiem & Naim (Lara), Marsha (Cinta) & others. I personally agree that SOG X Shila deserved it. Frankly, the first time I hear this song was during the semi final. It's not a common song that we hear everyday on medias.. Just FYI, SOG in full is Sekumpulan Orang Gila. In English it means A Bunch of Crazy People. Pelukan Angkasa means Hugs From the Space whereas the lyrics are so poetic, it's quite hard to render it into describable words.
Pelukan (Hug) Angkasa (Outer Space) is OST for a film 'KL Vampire' ( story about Malaysian Vampire who came from malay ancient time through the modern KL city life). The song is about forbidden love between two worlds (human & evils). The 'Malay World Music' concept mix with heavy metal make its very unique & rich variety of our Malaysian music industry. The flutes that used at the beginning is one of malay/asia traditional flute. The hand movements is one of the traditional ancient malay/asia dance, pray or worship to the god/king. Heavy Metal are not the usual genre in Malaysia but there is a lot of listeners who supports that kind of music. AJL got their own prestige also their own politics. You can look at the fishy 'award granted' to the unpredictable singer/song because of some fishy reasons that we as netizen can easily see who neither supposedly win the awards nor whom unexpected awarded. Yes, fan can only love the singer but in AJL, Song & Composer focused the most.
Indeed.. This is history for Malaysian music when a metal band won the competition.. Most of Malaysian was not listening to underground music.. This is combination between traditional and metal music genre.. The lyric too deep to understand because its related with to many things..
Dato mokhzani dah kata, lagu yg bagus kalau live performance tk bagus diorg ade hak untuk reject. Mksdnye singer Tu tk boleh carry lagu Tu. Esoji menang sbb lagu bagus dan performance Pon bagus. Dato ade post dkt ig dgn #bilagradmuzikbuatlagu . Dato Pon kagum
SOG made a really great job by collaborating with Shila Amzah. Their voices sounds really good together...at the same time Shila also bring this indie band out from underground. Happy to see everyone celebrating the colors of musics.
S.O.G hv done 100% music arrangement💯 the male vocalist is the composer of this song🌟 ..dah tertulis rezeki S.O.G & SHILA. dorang ambik masa bertahun berkarya & tunggu shila join dorang✌🏻 shila plk katanya dh lama kenal s.o.g, minat rock tp parent x kasi zaman muda2 dulu. skrg, peluang zappp tiba, terus merasa 🌟🏆🌟 AJL36❤️💯
The lyrics of this song have a deep meaning.most of us agreed this song deserved to win first place. aina abdul also said that she likes the performance of sog and Shila. she said that next year she want something different for her song. maybe she won't deliver a ballad song for next year and will probably perform with her band. she said she miss her band. which is she have band group before she famous. And she also said if she isn't with her band she still will come out with something different.
@@kakitiub9361 yup tu salah satu lagu eksperimen, Aina ni Indie singer kat Malaysia.. aku pun baru faham maksud Indie tu apa .. patutlah Aina suka buat sesuatu yang lain..
@@hill4124 actually aku pon tak tahu sangat tentang aina punya band. Hope aina akan bawak band tahun depan. Sbb dia cakap dia seronok tengok persembahan shila dengan sog. Dia pon rasa macam nak bawak band dia. Dia kata dia sendiri tahu macam mana rasa bila buat persembahan, ada orang dibelakang yang sokong dia🤧💃❣️❣️❣️
This song (lyrics) is super poetic that each line either contains personification, simile, metaphor or hyperbole. ‘Pelukan’ literally means hug while ‘angkasa’ is galaxy. If blindly interpret the lyrics, this song sounds like a human begging to nature & galaxy elements to embrace & comfort his soul & love.
The hand were closed together due to our culture. its like symbol of holy, pray, respect. you can find this culture around south east asia. But only in certain area we would hold our hand up on our forehead when pay respects to the Kings. (Bali, Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia etc) in this performance its like a symbol of pray / trust / surrender to the world, univers
The full moon illuminates my melancholy longing Fly the fury of the restlessness of the shackled soul The rising sky pinned the stars on your chest Let it burn as a bonfire that burns the heart The wind is whistling Whistle the exhale Blow the wound Cold piercing Piercing the cavity Embrace me, universe Say love is liberating Hug me, space Warm my body in the imaginary realm The scorching sun fuels the logic of my dark soul Release the raging radiation of my tormented mind You can't afford it Able to break this block Hug my hand We are united against the world Embrace me, universe Say love is liberating Hug me, space Warm my body in the imaginary realm Two souls, two worlds Want to taste happy peace Did you know that love is a sin? Embrace me, universe Say love is liberating Embrace me, universe Say that love Say that love Hug me, space Warm my body in the imaginary realm
Wow well done. I'm impressed, you have a very good command of English. Even in translation, dah jadi macam poem. I also like that you also used the term embrace, in addition to hug. Embrace lebih puitis kalau di-banding dengan hug. Saya rasa awak ni ada darah seni. You must have spent quite sometime choosing the right words rather than just giving a literal translation which would not convey/do justice to the poetic lyrics.
@@azizahabdullah1143 betul... not all people can translate bahasa Melayu yg puitis ke English dengan perkataan yang betul sebab agak tunggang langgang kalau direct translate jadi macam bangla try cakap melayu...
SOG is an underground band. So it’s a huge thing that they won AJL. And even though I’m like you, this is not my kind of genre, I still think it deserves to win. The lyrics is very poetic and strong, tells a story about forbidden love. Also I noticed some has already suggested that you react to Marsha, but pls bear in mind that during AJL, she had just recovered from covid and still experiencing terrible side effects.
Fun fact: The person who planned the arrangements and full orchestra scores was the flute player. Then it makes sense because he was always with the band. As far as I know, all of them were music graduates. The lyrics was made by a novelist, Fazleena Hishamuddin. Song made like a poem, about forbidden love, but using universe and the creations as metaphore. Deserved for a song award.
Hi Yazik! A fan of your channel, here. Since you're wanting to know what the song is about, Shila Amzah (in her IG) did put up a post saying the song is about two star-crossed lovers of different kinds and from different worlds who are not supposed to be fallen in love with one another (this song was first released as a soundtrack for a fantasy movie about vampires living in human world). I would like to offer my translation here just in case if you or anyone in here would like to have a read. The lyrics is quite poetic (literary even, to some point), which is quite rare in the Malaysian music scene these days because it is fueled by mainstream songs written with simpler word choices to go with more modern sonic soundscape that seems to be more appealing to the current audience. It is poetic because it is written by a person who is actually a well known writer/poet or should I say, who writes literary work (at least in the underground literary scene, to my understanding. Do correct me if I'm wrong. I've been a fan of her and found her on IG and love all her captions because they're poetic and nuanced). And I tried my very best to translate this song in English in the most literary way possible as well in hopes that I could capture the poetic essence of the words. The words and phrases that I choose here are for reasons and they may not appear entirely parallel linguistically to the Malay counterparts. I chose to not translate them verbatim and went for the best words or phrases to go with them to reflect the essence of their meanings. I'm so sorry for that as well. Hopefully these words would give a little bit more sense to what the words in Malay are about. Again, I tried my very best and this may not be perfectly sound. Read this for your enjoyment and to get a gist of what the song talks about. Thank you very much, guys!. (Male Verse) Full moon Illuminate this rancorous longing of mine Soaring the raging disquiet Of a shackled soul Sky, pitch dark Weave a star into your canvas May it burn Like bonfire setting the heart ablaze Whistling wind Like an exhale Blustering against the wound Piercing cold Lances through the void (Chorus) Hold me, universe Say that love is liberating Embrace me, cosmos Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment (Female Verse) Scorching sun Enkindle the sagacity of my darkened soul Absolving radiation Bearing this harrowed mind of mine towards ruin (Screamo) You’ll never be able To shatter this fortress (Male & Female) Grasp my hand United will we be Against the world (Chorus) Hold me, universe Say that love is liberating Embrace me, cosmos Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment (Male, Female & Screamo) Two souls, two worlds Yearning to taste tranquil bliss Are you heedful Of what a sin love is? (Male Verse) Hold me, universe Say that love is liberating (Last Chorus) Hold me, universe Say that love is …. Say that love is …. Embrace me, cosmos Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment
At 2.00, the musical instrument is a flute known as 'seruling' in Malay usually made of bamboo but I am not sure whether this particular one is made of bamboo. I am not much of a rock music fan but this particular song 'Pelukan Angkasa' is rock music with a difference especially in the context of Malaysian music with the blending of old & new especially in the use of musical instruments. This appears to be the trend in Malaysian music lately, the blending of old & new I suppose as a way of acknowledging one's heritage and appreciating the beat of the new all at the same time.
By the way, the band "SOG" actually stands for "Sekumpulan Orang Gila" which literally means "A band of crazy people". They are one of the best Indie Rock/Emo/Screemo bands in Malaysia. So happy to see such an interesting collab between a diva like Shila Amzah and them and have it turn out so good. Congrats to them, and to AJL for being inclusive enough to have such varieties of music always present and respected (at least lately).
10:14 yes me too but now i realize ajl isn't just about vocal. So many aspect the judges have to focus on to give marks. And idk why I think Ajl 36 better than Ajl35. I feel like Ajl36 is perfect.
Yes, for Vocal they see all Various Vocal... Belting, Head Voice, Pitching, Blend, Range etc... This is just for Vocal... Perfomance and Winner have another mark... So AJL is not a simple like we see
@@hahanimation1729 the judges also focus on the composition of the song, such as chord used inside the song. You may see the explanation inside instagram profile of Datuk Mokhzani (the head judges of AJL36).
Everyone else had commented what I initially wanted to comment; except there is only a few mention of the FLUTE! I loved when u can hear the flute between the loud noises of the song giving me the goosebumps
Datuk Mokhzani (AJL Chief Jury) in his instagram on Pelukan Angkasa: "A little study on this song, the 3rd bar melody lands on E note which is #11 in Bb maj 7 or C/Bb & some reharm on melody of A the changes start with Bm7b5 before Bb maj 7...d chorus, melody lands on E with Dm9." Mr.Yazik, can you please explain this for us? I am sure a millions of Malaysians do not understand this.😂 Thanks for your time.😊
this song, music, lyrics … all .. yes all.. deserved to win.. very rare and very hard to sing.. congratulation to SOG n Shila.. uolls the best!! i love it! tq Yazik for the react
No this type of Music not to Popular in Malaysia 🤣 BUT... from first AJL until today, there is a lot of Different Genre WIN this Competition... Balada, Pop, Traditional, Indie, Slow Rock etc can win... But how they represent it will give them a new path...
Hi Yazik...Good reaction. Love it and many thanks. FYI AJL is the platform to recognized the best lyric and of course the song itself. On top of that there are others recognitions such as performances and vocal.
It's so Great..wow!..bravo.. shila amzah Voice is it amazing..SOG.. it's all band make the music is perfectly perform.. well-done guys..TQ for uolls..👍👍😘😘😘😘👌
The meaning for SOG band S - Sekumpulan (a group) O - Orang (people) G - Gila (crazy) The performance very crazy for me 😂😂😂 and for underground band and Indie band, they deserved that.
Nice reaction as always. Waiting for your reaction to Aina Abdul, the best vocal... and you have got to do reaction to Marsha Milan. She and Aina are equally good.
AJL is all about Song Composition based Competition (Melody assessment, whole Composition including music production & lyrics Composition). Thats the concept of this competition since 1986. Not just highlight to singers only but the songs.
another fact in ajl history, this Pelukan Angkasa is the 3rd Winner after Estranged 1st, and 2nd Meet Uncle Hussin in indie band history of ajl 👌🏻.. and this time totally epic…
Please react to the whole AJL36 performances.. including the special appearances of our legendary rockers WINGS at the end of AJL36 before the result out
For me at that night, I didn't expect this song would win because I predict that AEWO would win that night (as AJL 1st place winner usually quite controversial 🌝). I also predict Sepi would win as I heard that the judge(leader) already been replaced by someone else this year and Sepi was super popular plus have great lyrics. So, this song winning was quite a suprised. However, I was not disappointed by the results as the performance deserved it, plus all my favorite singers won something that night. Check out Marsha performance as she won 2nd place and best performance of that night. Like I am so happy😭 and she been waiting for 16 years for the award and has just been recovered from covid-19 several day before the performance. Despite that, she give her all and got standing ovation 🤧
"is this genre very popular in Malaysia 🇲🇾?" LMAO! NOT AT ALL! NOT EVEN OUR LOCAL RADIO AIR PLAY THEM ANYWHERE! But I'm glad SOG finally catching their big fish - WELL DESERVES 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
REACT TO AJL PERFORMANCE 1 : PELUKAN ANGKASA by shila amzah and SOG 2 & BEST PERFORMANCE : CINTA by marsha milan 3 : MIMPI by haqiem rusli BEST VOCAL : SEPI by aina abdul 4 & POPULAR CHOICE SINGER : NAFAS CINTA by aina abdul and khai bahar
Please react to the second place winner, Marsha, Cinta. She also won best performance. She just recovered from COVID & tried holding her cough during the performance.
You should watch Pelukan Angkasa sfmm (semi finals). Vocals were much clearer. I first heard this song during semi final and I spontaniously said that this song is gonna win the AJL36. Everything is there... and the music is fresh.
Your passion to music and the amount of research you’ve been doing for all kind of music around the globe are just so impressive. Europeans are just so good in doing their thorough research on stuff they’re passionate about. I just hope we have someone expert from this side of the world to study Polish and other european songs too. Hollywood is just so overrated 😁. Kudos to you 👏
go for marsha too.. she is not feeling well coz just had her second covid19 infection.. she hold her cough on stage. But, she did her best and managed to win best performance and No-2 for song. not perfect but she delivered a performance that will not be forgotten!
Oh and talking about whether this song is popular or not pre-AJL, it is not. Many of us listened to it the first time during the final. In fact, the song only has around 500k++ views only on UA-cam.
Hi Yazik. Thank you for reacting our performance video. Appreciate it!
Btw, we do love a Polish band called BATUSHKA. Korang boleh check out band Batushka. Band yang bagus dari segi visual dan pembawakan identiti.
Wow SoG in da house 👏🤩
Mantap sangat persembahan korang!! You make us proud as Malaysian!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tapi Batushka punya performance serius creepy af
For Yazik and my fellow non malay speaker this is the lyric translation
Full moon light up my sorrows
Let my fiercely anxious soul fly
Shining sky keep the star in your heart
Let it light up and burn your heart
Whistling wind
Breathlessly whistling
Blow the wound away
Cold piercing through the heart
[Corus]
Embrace me oh universe
Said that love give you freedom
Stay near to me ether space
Warmth my body through the imaginary world
Sunshine light up my darkest soul
Let it melt my tormented body and soul
[Scream]
You all cant even,
Cant even break this wall
Hold my hand
We united fight the world
[Corus]
Embrace me oh universe
Said that love give you freedom
Stay near to me ether space
Warmth my body through the imaginary world
[Scream]
Two soul and two world
Together expecting for happiness
Did you know that love is a sin?
Embrace me oh universe
Said that love give you freedom
Said that love,
Said that love,
Stay close to me ether space
Warmth my body through the imaginary world.

In the history of AJL in 36 years, Shila Amzah is the only singer able to go for Final AJL in Solo, Duet, Trio and Band.
And all the category she got a placed except duet category
aah lah 😍

Well, I could say most of AJL fans didn't dispute the winning of SOG x Shila although we have & were rooting for our favourite singers & songs such as Aina Abdul (Sepi), Hael, Haqiem & Naim (Lara), Marsha (Cinta) & others.

The full moon illuminates my melancholy longing
Fly the fury of the restlessness of the shackled soul
The rising sky pinned the stars on your chest
Let it burn as a bonfire that burns the heart
The wind is whistling
Whistle the exhale
Blow the wound
Cold piercing
Piercing the cavity
Embrace me, universe
Say love is liberating
Hug me, space
Warm my body in the imaginary realm
The scorching sun fuels the logic of my dark soul
Release the raging radiation of my tormented mind
You can't afford it
Able to break this block
Hug my hand
We are united against the world
Embrace me, universe
Say love is liberating
Hug me, space
Warm my body in the imaginary realm
Two souls, two worlds
Want to taste happy peace
Did you know that love is a sin?
Embrace me, universe
Say love is liberating
Embrace me, universe
Say that love
Say that love
Hug me, space
Warm my body in the imaginary realm

The lyric so poetic is one of factor of their winning.
This song well deserved to win. No doubt at all! It is not easy for underground Indie Band got this kind of recognition. Love SOG & Shila Amzah.

(Male Verse)
Full moon
Illuminate this rancorous longing of mine
Soaring the raging disquiet
Of a shackled soul
Sky, pitch dark
Weave a star into your canvas
May it burn
Like bonfire setting the heart ablaze
Whistling wind
Like an exhale
Blustering against the wound
Piercing cold
Lances through the void
(Chorus)
Hold me, universe
Say that love is liberating
Embrace me, cosmos
Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment
(Female Verse)
Scorching sun
Enkindle the sagacity of my darkened soul
Absolving radiation
Bearing this harrowed mind of mine towards ruin
(Screamo)
You’ll never be able
To shatter this fortress
(Male & Female)
Grasp my hand
United will we be
Against the world
(Chorus)
Hold me, universe
Say that love is liberating
Embrace me, cosmos
Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment
(Male, Female & Screamo)
Two souls, two worlds
Yearning to taste tranquil bliss
Are you heedful
Of what a sin love is?
(Male Verse)
Hold me, universe
Say that love is liberating
(Last Chorus)
Hold me, universe
Say that love is ….
Say that love is ….
Embrace me, cosmos
Warm my frame in the kingdom of figment
Marsha got best performance and won second place..cant wait for your reaction to Cinta by Marsha 😁
React to marsha milan performance highly recommended!!
At 2.00, the musical instrument is a flute known as 'seruling' in Malay usually made of bamboo but I am not sure whether this particular one is made of bamboo. I am not much of a rock music fan but this particular song 'Pelukan Angkasa' is rock music with a difference especially in the context of Malaysian music with the blending of old & new especially in the use of musical instruments. This appears to be the trend in Malaysian music lately, the blending of old & new I suppose as a way of acknowledging one's heritage and appreciating the beat of the new all at the same time.
The song really DESERVED to Win because it's rare just like GILA during AJL35
Last year only 3 crazy people, now this year there's bunch of crazy people 😆 next year all of us will become crazy 🤣
By the way, the band "SOG" actually stands for "Sekumpulan Orang Gila" which literally means "A band of crazy people". They are one of the best Indie Rock/Emo/Screemo bands in Malaysia. So happy to see such an interesting collab between a diva like Shila Amzah and them and have it turn out so good. Congrats to them, and to AJL for being inclusive enough to have such varieties of music always present and respected (at least lately).
They explained that they are a bunch if crazy people towards music
10:14 yes me too but now i realize ajl isn't just about vocal. So many aspect the judges have to focus on to give marks. And idk why I think Ajl 36 better than Ajl35. I feel like Ajl36 is perfect.
Yes, for Vocal they see all Various Vocal... Belting, Head Voice, Pitching, Blend, Range etc... This is just for Vocal...
Perfomance and Winner have another mark... So AJL is not a simple like we see
@@hahanimation1729 the judges also focus on the composition of the song, such as chord used inside the song. You may see the explanation inside instagram profile of Datuk Mokhzani (the head judges of AJL36).
@@hazrel I understand why some (fake 🤣) viral song afraid to join the competition
@@hahanimation1729 hahahhaha. Tak boleh bayang lagu jerung merah masuk ajl. Ayoyo~~~ 😂😂
@@Uryanxiy tu kalau masuk memang aq x tengok terus ajl lantak ah ada aina abdul ke marsha ke shila ke lantak
Everyone else had commented what I initially wanted to comment; except there is only a few mention of the FLUTE!
I loved when u can hear the flute between the loud noises of the song
giving me the goosebumps
A well deserved win 👏
Yeahh. The only reaction im waiting for.. please make more ajl36 reaction.. ❤️ tq yazik
Datuk Mokhzani (AJL Chief Jury) in his instagram on Pelukan Angkasa: "A little study on this song, the 3rd bar melody lands on E note which is #11 in Bb maj 7 or C/Bb & some reharm on melody of A the changes start with Bm7b5 before Bb maj 7...d chorus, melody lands on E with Dm9." Mr.Yazik, can you please explain this for us? I am sure a millions of Malaysians do not understand this.😂 Thanks for your time.😊
@yaziqreacts please explain to us about this hahahaha

No this type of Music not to Popular in Malaysia 🤣 BUT... from first AJL until today, there is a lot of Different Genre WIN this Competition... Balada, Pop, Traditional, Indie, Slow Rock etc can win... But how they represent it will give them a new path...
Hi Yazik...Good reaction. Love it and many thanks. FYI AJL is the platform to recognized the best lyric and of course the song itself. On top of that there are others recognitions such as performances and vocal.
It's so Great..wow!..bravo.. shila amzah Voice is it amazing..SOG.. it's all band make the music is perfectly perform.. well-done guys..TQ for uolls..👍👍😘😘😘😘👌
Yazid, dont forget to reaction Amir Masdi Duet Jaclyn Victor on Bigstage 2022 too!! They both medley Siti Nurhaliza songs😍

True!!!
The meaning for SOG band
S - Sekumpulan (a group)
O - Orang (people)
G - Gila (crazy)
The performance very crazy for me 😂😂😂 and for underground band and Indie band, they deserved that.
Love the orchestration…
Nice reaction as always. Waiting for your reaction to Aina Abdul, the best vocal... and you have got to do reaction to Marsha Milan. She and Aina are equally good.
Luv your reaction sir 👍🇲🇾😃
Tq yazik ❤️
AJL is all about Song Composition based Competition (Melody assessment, whole Composition including music production & lyrics Composition). Thats the concept of this competition since 1986. Not just highlight to singers only but the songs.
Please react MARSHA MILAN's performance - CINTA ❣️
she was so amazing and present her performances incrediblely.
another fact in ajl history, this Pelukan Angkasa is the 3rd Winner after Estranged 1st, and 2nd Meet Uncle Hussin in indie band history of ajl 👌🏻.. and this time totally epic…
9:27 trivia= the whole orchestration was written by Wan (the flute player)
Please react to the whole AJL36 performances.. including the special appearances of our legendary rockers WINGS at the end of AJL36 before the result out
Finally I've been waiting for your reaction to AJL 36
For me at that night, I didn't expect this song would win because I predict that AEWO would win that night (as AJL 1st place winner usually quite controversial 🌝). I also predict Sepi would win as I heard that the judge(leader) already been replaced by someone else this year and Sepi was super popular plus have great lyrics. So, this song winning was quite a suprised. However, I was not disappointed by the results as the performance deserved it, plus all my favorite singers won something that night.
Check out Marsha performance as she won 2nd place and best performance of that night. Like I am so happy😭 and she been waiting for 16 years for the award and has just been recovered from covid-19 several day before the performance. Despite that, she give her all and got standing ovation 🤧
Wow! Nice!!! 😍
yazek react to marsha milan plsssss
Thanks yazik. Love your honest reaction🎈
Love your reaction for this performance.❤️
Im also enjoyed the acoustic version, beautiful ❤
7:46 yazik this year syamel performing boneka for ajl36!!! OMG it's different compare to ernie but i still love it!!❣️

"is this genre very popular in Malaysia 🇲🇾?"
LMAO! NOT AT ALL! NOT EVEN OUR LOCAL RADIO AIR PLAY THEM ANYWHERE! But I'm glad SOG finally catching their big fish - WELL DESERVES 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Yeahhhh...💕💕🇲🇾✔️✔️
Hi Yazik, you should react to the closing performance for AJL 36 by the band Wings. They did a medley of 4 songs.
REACT TO AJL PERFORMANCE
1 : PELUKAN ANGKASA by shila amzah and SOG
2 & BEST PERFORMANCE : CINTA by marsha milan
3 : MIMPI by haqiem rusli
BEST VOCAL : SEPI by aina abdul
4 & POPULAR CHOICE SINGER : NAFAS CINTA by aina abdul and khai bahar
The whole orchestration was written by Wan (The Flute player) .
The lyrics is written by a local talented poet. So it is so beautiful.
Please react to the second place winner, Marsha, Cinta. She also won best performance. She just recovered from COVID & tried holding her cough during the performance.
Shila said the song is about love between two person who came from different world or status etc.
Please react Nafas Cinta Ajl36 too , their harmonisation was very beautiful 🔥
So amazing,,, booming, fantastic ever
yes it is..in malay tradition..flute is so significant...especially in our music
You should watch Pelukan Angkasa sfmm (semi finals). Vocals were much clearer.
I first heard this song during semi final and I spontaniously said that this song is gonna win the AJL36. Everything is there... and the music is fresh.
Your passion to music and the amount of research you’ve been doing for all kind of music around the globe are just so impressive. Europeans are just so good in doing their thorough research on stuff they’re passionate about. I just hope we have someone expert from this side of the world to study Polish and other european songs too. Hollywood is just so overrated 😁. Kudos to you 👏
im Haqiem Rusli fans n well deserved congrats SOG n SHILA AMZAH
go for marsha too.. she is not feeling well coz just had her second covid19 infection.. she hold her cough on stage. But, she did her best and managed to win best performance and No-2 for song. not perfect but she delivered a performance that will not be forgotten!
Yazik reaction that i'm waiting for 😂😂finally..next react for marsha milan please. Actually SOG 100% arrange the music n TOKRAM juct follow n conduct
The best!
Yazik.. I suggest you to watch their performance in previous semi final. That one is much more clear than this
Marsha Milan - Cinta 🔥🔥🔥
Marsha pls..
Cannot wait yazik react aina😫😫😫😫😫
❤️
Oh and talking about whether this song is popular or not pre-AJL, it is not. Many of us listened to it the first time during the final. In fact, the song only has around 500k++ views only on UA-cam.
the drummer and the lead vocalist are twins, 2 handsome boys
no wonder their face looks similar.. hahaha
This song is very AJL material.
finally!! aina abdul pls🔥
React marsha please🙏🙏🙏
