The Virgin, which "cinta terlarang"


if we listen to a music on the radio it will be bias about what the singer try to show us trough the lyrics they sang. then we have to see what does they mean trough the video clip they made on TV. the Virgin a new duo that recently come up to our music industry are actually being compare with the Russian duo TATU. both of this duo has two girls as their personal, one with a tomboy outlook(Dara) and the other one with a feminine look(mitha).

most of the people already know that TATU as a duo come up with an issue that they are actually Lesbians, and here in my opinion The Virgin wants to show the same issue to us. cinta terlarang their latest single is merely about a forbiden love that no one can have it, whether it is because of our culture in the society that forbid the love because its inappropriate, religion, or even they are in love with the same gender.

as I mention before if we only listen to the radio without the visualization they make for us its very bias when The Virgin about "cinta terlarang" because first if we only see their appearance we will guess what they mean by cinta terlarang is their own relationship to each other.

then I watch the clip they made, at first i thought that it is true that its is about the relationship between the two of them but then come Marcelino Lefrant separate both of them, in this video clip Marcelino is actually has already get married but still he is in love with one of the girl. then i Question my self when i saw that scene, is the forbidden love belong to the relationship between the girls or the relationship between the girl and Marcelino?

in the end i think that not all of the video clip makes the message clear enough, still we will have many interpretation on a things like a song. well which "cinta terlarang" then it is in your opinion?
