Endah recorded numerous songs of hers in an album entitled āThe New Beginningā, a four-track mini album which was independently distributed, with a limited number of copy. In one of the songs in the album, Rhesa added some bass thumps and made it a fascinating mix of the three instruments (vocal, guitar and bass). The song is titled āWhen You Love Someoneā. From that time being, Endah and Rhesa started to play together in campus events, and the feedbacks toward their music were tremendously positive. Finally, they decided to create a stage name for their duo/musical project which comes from their own names: Endah N Rhesa.
Endah N Rhesa was inspired to start playing in minimalist acoustic format, surprisingly, because of some local bands, namely: Cozy Street Corner, Bonita and Anda. In terms of singing, Endah is influenced by Alanis Morissete and Norah Jones. Besides, there are also the four āJohnsā that influence her in playing guitar: John Mayer, John Butler, John Scofield and John Frusciante. Endah also credits Pat Metheny and multi-talented instrumentalist Warman Nasution of TOR for inspiring her. Rhesa, on the other hand, is a unique personality who is mainly influenced by acoustic guitarists like Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, James Taylor and other folk and ballad musicians. The persons that Rhesa put into credit for making him play bass are Les Claypool, Victor Wooten, Flea and ex-child singer Bondan Prakoso. They both, however, share the same influence in music, to wit: Bela Fleck & The Flecktones, which affects them mostly on creating rich groovy and harmonic nuances in the music of Endah N Rhesa.
Endah N Rhesa has released āNowhere To Goā (old version) in 2005 and āReal Liveā, a live recording piece, in 2006. Endah N Rhesa marketed and distributed both the former and the latter all by themselves through their stage acts. After releasing āNowhere To Goā (repackaged version), which is now on sale in music stores, in 2009, Endah N Rhesa is coming into a whole broader world. āOur music is sincere and itās coming from inside our hearts,ā they say

Remember Me
Endah N Rhesa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't know which way to go
I left my heart in this island
But I should take it slow
Now I go straight to the ocean
Swimming and dancing in the sea
Hey don't worry I'll find my way home
I'm trying to be strong, I'm here standing alone
But it's time for me to face the future
I promise to come back and I hope that you'll remember me as yours
I stare at a moon and thousands of stars in the sky
I wish I could see you now
Hey don't forget the thing we used to talk about
Love. loveā¦ love
The lyrics of Endah N Rhesa's "Remember Me" tell the story of someone who is lost and trying to find their way back home.

The lyrics are filled with a sense of longing and nostalgia, as the singer yearns for the comfort of home and the love of their family. The beach setting adds to the sense of wanderlust and searching, as the ocean symbolizes the vast unknown that the person must navigate through. The poignant imagery of the moon and stars further adds to the emotions of the song, with the singer wishing to be reunited with their loved ones as they gaze up at the night sky.
Overall, "Remember Me" is a powerful and emotional song that speaks to the universal themes of love, family, and the longing for home. It is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the importance of cherishing the people we love and holding onto the memories that bind us together.

I walk alone in beach sand
I am walking by myself on the sandy beach
And I don't know which way to go
I am lost and uncertain of which direction to take
I left my heart in this island
My heart belongs to this island
But I should take it slow
I need to be patient and not rush things
Now I go straight to the ocean
I head towards the sea and embrace it
Swimming and dancing in the sea
I am having fun in the water and enjoying myself
Hey don't worry I'll find my way home
I will eventually figure out my path back to where I belong
Back to you and our family
I will return to the people close to my heart
I'm trying to be strong, I'm here standing alone
I am attempting to be brave, though I am standing by myself
But it's time for me to face the future
It is time for me to confront what lies ahead
I promise to come back and I hope that you'll remember me as yours
I give my word to return, and I wish to remain yours in your memory
I stare at a moon and thousands of stars in the sky
I gaze at the sky, filled with innumerable stars and one moon
I wish I could see you now
I desire to be with you presently
Hey don't forget the thing we used to talk about
Please recall the subject of our past conversations
Love. loveā¦ love
Love. love...love
