"Tak Berputus Asa" - Hope is not gone - Composition by Ireng Maulana, one of the members of the Eka Sapta Band. Later on he became a Jazz musician.
"Kain Bugih" - A piece of cloth from the Bugis ? - Its in Minang language
"Pelipur Lara" She likes to sing, for comforting the painful heart. This kind of songs I like to hear, Ernie Djohan and the band are at their best in this kind of songs.
"Bukan Yang Dulu" - Not like before - Rather sad, but not depressing.
"Si Gendut" - The fat one - That is one of the "I know someone who...." songs. It is done with Jakarta words and accent.
"Terunaku" - My grown up ( ? ) She could go right to Nashville with this song, it sounds like it is created there.
Compliments to "Oom Jasir" ( Uncle Jasir )
"Hanya Untukmu Sayang" - Only for you, dear -
"Lebaran Anak Muda" - The Islamic New year, end of the fast period - The music is made oriental in this song so it suits with the content.
"Terimalah Kasihku" - Accept my gratefulness -
"Saat Kau Pergi" - The moment you went away - Riyanto did mostly the slower songs. I think he was at his best when he composed for Tetty Kadi.
"Deritaku" - My suffering -.
" Seperti Hujan Saja " - Like rain - The rain is falling and falling it lasts a long time. A long time also she's waiting for him. The melody is like children shouting names insults at each other.
