After returning home from her studies in the Art Institute of Seattle, the first thing she did was to get started on her solo album. With the help of fellow musicians Iman Fattah, Aghi Narottama, Bemby Gusti and Age Airlangga, she released her debut album Frozen Love Songs in 2005. The album received great acclaim because Tika introduces the Indonesian music industry to a concept of a female singer that goes outside of the pop-diva template. A year later, independent label Aksara Records repackaged the album and released it with a new title, Defrosted Love Songs.
Since the release of Defrosted Love Songs, Tika took time off from doing her own music projects. Instead, she collaborated with musicians from different genres such as Sri Aksan Sjuman, Jamie Aditya, and Agrikulture among others. She was also involved in numerous film scorings and soundtracks, such as Janji Joni, 9 Naga, Love for Share, Dead Time: Kala, Gara-gara Bola, Quickie Express, and Pintu Terlarang.
You Belong To Me
Kartika Jahja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watch the sunrise from a tropic isle
Just remember, darling all the while
You belong to me
See the marketplace in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too
And blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me
I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too
And blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me
Juliette Lewis: "I just want to tell you I love you, and I miss you. Don't
forget about me. You won't forget about me?"
Woody Harrelson: "I won't forget about you. It's cool. No matter where he takes
you, Timbouktou, it don't matter, because it's fate. Know? Nobody can
stop fate. Nobody can."]
Kartika Jahja's song "You Belong to Me" is an emotional love ballad that explores the powerful connection between two people. The lyrics express the singer's desire for their loved one to explore the world and see all the beautiful things it has to offer, but the underlying message is that no matter where they go, they will always belong to each other.
The first verse speaks of the pyramids along the Nile and watching the sunrise from a tropic isle, urging their loved one to go on these adventures and see the beauty in the world. However, the chorus reminds them that no matter where they are, they belong to the singer. The second verse continues with the same message, encouraging their loved one to send photographs and souvenirs from their travels, but ultimately reminding them that they belong to the singer.
The bridge of the song is particularly powerful, as it speaks of the loneliness both the singer and their loved one will feel when they are apart. It creates a sense of vulnerability, as if they are admitting how much they need each other even when they are physically apart. The final chorus repeats the same message as the first, driving home the idea that no matter where their loved one goes, they will always belong to the singer.
Overall, "You Belong to Me" is a poignant love song that speaks to the deep emotional connection between two people. It reminds us that despite all the beauty and adventure in the world, nothing can compare to the feeling of belonging to someone else.
