Yang Hilang (meaning The Lost One) is a greatest hits album by Indonesian singer Anggun. It was released in 1994 by Blackboard Indonesia, compiling her well-known Indonesian hits with two brand new songs, "Yang Hilang" and "Masa Masa Remaja".
After releasing five studio albums—Dunia Aku Punya, Kepada Alam dan Pencintanya,[1] Anak Putih Abu-Abu, Nocturno, and Anggun C. Sasmi...Lah!!!—she became dissatisfied with her success in the domestic market and began to pursue an international music career.[2] She subsequently released Yang Hilang as her final album in Indonesia, which was a compilation necessary to fulfill her remaining contractual obligations.[3]
Yang Hilang was written by her long-time composer Teddy Sudjaja, song's lyrics can be interpreted to her music career which was "lost" for three years before coming back with her debut international album, Snow on the Sahara (1997).
Content
The album features her well-known Indonesian hit singles since 1989 with two brand new songs, "Yang Hilang" and "Masa Masa Remaja". The album excluded all material from her debut and final Indonesian studio albums, Dunia Aku Punya (1986) and Anggun C. Sasmi... Lah!!! (1993). Other notable exclusions from the compilation are "Takut" and "Bayang Bayang Ilusi".
On the first edition cover sleeve, Anggun jokingly wrote the credits as Billy Sheehan from Mr. Big (bass), Rick Wakeman from Yes (keyboard), John Bonham from Led Zeppelin (drum), which were not true.[3]
Single
"Yang Hilang" was released as Anggun's final single in Indonesia. It was accompanied by a music video directed by Christ Sinyal and became another hit on the charts, peaking inside the Top 10 in the Indonesian Airplay Chart.
