Abstract

Many people are still curious about Keisya Levronka’s failure to hit the high notes of her flagship song “Tak Ingin Usai” (Never Want to Stop). This study will analyze the pros and cons of what happened and place it in the context of the music industry. The data were taken from videos on the YouTube channel, which were then analyzed qualitatively with the help of the intertext method through interviews with music and vocal experts. The results of the study show that the musicality of “Tak Ingin Usai” is really melodious. In the chorus, there is a high note line, which is the climax of the song and the most anticipated part. In an industrial context, failures like this are common. What sets it apart from other cases is that, in the case of the pop song, there is a deep extremity between the audience’s expectations and what a singer can actually show on a live stage.
