This song was created during the Japanese occupation, the creator Muhammad Arief from Banyuwangi, made this song for the people because they only can eat genjer.
Genjer or Limnocharis flava is a plant that grows in a field, Traditionally this plant is an important vegetable in parts of Asia, in some areas it is considered "poor people's food" or emergency food, eaten whenever there is not much else left. This characteristic was put into song by Muhammad Arief, in the 1940s hit Genjer-genjer in the Banyuwangi language in Java.
After the Japanese occupation, PKI or Partai Komunis Indonesia ( Indonesia Communist Party ) used this song for propaganda. After the G30S PKI or the 30th September Movement, PKI or communism was banned in Indonesia because the 7 army generals were killed and thrown to Lubang Buaya or the crocodile hole.
This song was very illegal to play in public during Soeharto's regime and until now, the Genjer-genjer song was still illegal to use but many people still listened to this song, even after the Soeharto regime was over. The song still remains on social media just like...YouTube
