Yes that’s the title of Tompi’s new album "Playful". Why playful, it just because he wants to take us to play with the song, the melody, a r&b n balad one. First to know his new single "Salahkah", it’s already a very good song, very melodic and touchy. But still seemed not interested to buy the album. But when hear it’s demo played in Disctarra, it became interesting, the first track titled "Balonku", don’t think that it’s a new song, it’s very familiar in our ears, a kid’s song "Balonku ada lima, rupa-rupa warnanya, …" played in Tompi style, then we get knowed that it match the album’s title, really playful. The rest of the album, looks like he made an experimental, if not said playful. If you hear the debut single "Salahkah", it’s rather serious, but still you can feel the nuance of play in the melody and vocal. One thing that make the album unique, is that in every song you can read the story behind the song, in the album booklet. Like the song "Salahku", he said,"Banyak banget mungkin yang mengalami kisah ini, saat suatu hubungan udah basi, emang berat buat dijalani, tapi selingkuh tetap aja SALAH!" Maybe it become trends or somewhat in Indonesian Musician nowadays, Tompi made some songs written in English also.

"Salahkah"

Salahkah bila ku mendua
salahkah bila rasaku menghilang
dan aku tak lagi merasa engkau ada
dan cintaku seolah jenuh akan hatimu

* kasih tinggalkankah diriku tuk selamanya
  biarkan ku sendiri
  cukup bagi diriku melukai hatimu
  kasih tinggalkanlah diriku tuk selamanya
  biarkan aku

  mungkin kau akan bahagia dengan dia yang lain

tak perlu kau memohon untuk kembali
tak perlu kau memohon cintaku
tiada lagi ruang di hatiku
yang tersisa untukmu

*)

   mungkin kau bahagia bila dengan yang lain

sungguh ku pun tak bisa untuk tetap mencintaimu
sungguh ku takkan bisa untuk selalu menyayangimu
sungguh ku tak bisa untuk tetap mencintaimu selamanya
0.. pergilah kasih tinggalkan aku
