Hi Hivers, how are you all? I'm sure we're all fine. By the way, my name is 
For this week's theme I have prepared a good song, a song yang related to the theme, namely the song called "Berhenti Berharap", this song was popularized by "Sheila on 7."
Sheila on 7 (SO7) is a popular Indonesian music group with members Duta (Akhdiyat Duta Modjo, vocals), Eross (Eross Candra, guitar), Adam (Adam Muhammad Subarkah, bass), and Brian (Brian Kresna Putro, drums). .
The group, which was founded in Yogyakarta, May 6, 1996, was originally called Sheila Gank, which was taken from the Celtic word Sheila, which means musical. This name was later changed to On Seven, which means seven scales in music.
SO7 in their musical journey has undergone several formation changes. In October 2004, Brian came in to replace Anton, who was expelled for being undisciplined. Then in March 2006, Sakti withdrew to study religion in Pakistan.
Lastly, Brian also left for reasons of Sheila on 7 management's decision
Brian chose to resign from the band that had raised his name. When confirmed to the management they gave information that the decision to leave Brian was the result of an agreement and discussion by all related parties.

Many believe that Sheila On 7 is the best Indonesian pop band to date. Eross Candra and friends are considered as a band that offers honesty in music. Their song is easy listening with classy lyrical weight.
Eross Candra is the main motor behind the writing of Sheila On 7's works. Apart from having the ability to package music well, Eross, who is assisted by his colleagues, also consistently offers honest, beautiful lyrics that are far from overdone, he is also the one who creates songs. "Stop Hoping" this.
The lyrics of the song Stop Hope is about someone who doesn't believe in love and anything about it. His emotions were turbulent because the love he was fighting for could not be achieved, until finally he withdrew from the struggle for his love.
At first, he believed in the sun of hope that could illuminate his pitch-dark world, but as time went on the light began to dim and darken his heart. Until it made him no longer believe that the light of hope could re-illuminate the dark corner of his heart.
Finally, in desperation, he took the initiative that the arrival of "darkness" was one way out of his problem.
Until one day there was no more love for him, and he began to ask God, "Why is there pain when happiness is created", "Why is there black when white is fun"
I no longer believe in using the sun
The one who used to be able to light up this dark corner of the heart
I topped hoping and waiting for dark to come
Until one day there will be no love for me
Finally he gave up from the struggle he had been trying, and accepted his defeat without holding the slightest grudge.
And in that emotion he lauds his lover's victory which has made him feel the pain of suffering until he is finally cornered waiting for death.
there are many meanings contained in this song, about love, life, loneliness, and hope, although sometimes love is heartbreaking and hope makes us stop, but God gives us what we think.
I chose this song, because it fits the theme chosen by our recent Spotlight Artist:
Here are the full lyrics
Sheila on 7 - Berhenti berharap
Aku tak percaya lagi dengan apa yang kau beri
Aku terdampar disini tersudut menunggu mati
*Aku tak percaya lagi akan guna matahari
Yang dulu mampu terangi sudut gelap hati ini
Aku berhenti berharap dan menunggu datang gelap
Sampai nanti suatu saat tak ada cinta kudapat
Kenapa ada derita bila bahagia tercipta?
Kenapa ada sang hitam bila putih menyenangkan?
*Aku pulang tanpa dendam
Kuterima kekalahanku
Aku pulang tanpa dendam
Kusalutkan kemenanganmu
Kau ajarkan aku bahagia
Kau ajarkan aku derita
Kau tunjukkan aku bahagia
Kau tunjukkan aku derita
Kau berikan aku bahagia
Kau berikan aku derita
Aku pulang (ha-ha) tanpa dendam
Kuterima (ha-ha) kekalahanku
Aku berhenti berharap dan menunggu datang gelap
Sampai nanti suatu saat tak ada cinta kudapat*
