The song "Anak Kampung" by Jimmy Palikat tells the story of a poor village boy who falls in love with a beautiful girl who is above his social class. Despite being attracted to her, he realizes that if he were to marry her she would experience much hardship due to his lack of wealth and ability to provide for her, so he decides to let her go in the hopes that she find someone else better than him. The song highlights the reality of the difficulties of inter-class love, and expresses a bittersweet sadness for what could have been.
