MiNdBOx - Sempurna

It must be a Malay-songs-week as I've been waking up with one playing in my head every morning. Not to mention that I dl-ed a couple more the day before..

Anyway, today's song is called Sempurna (Perfect). It's by Andra & The Backbone, a rock group from Indonesia (Read more about them here and here.) This version is also the one playing on radios and has a more upbeat feel to it.

While I was looking for the said song, I stumbled on another version, a cover by Gita Gutawa, also an Indonesian, as the theme song for an Indonesian film, Love (more info on the film here). This is the soulful version which has a touch of sadness to it. But what amazes me the most is the singer herself. She's only fifteen (yes, one five) but listen to that soprano's voice! (Read more about her here.)

Both versions are nice in their own ways and depending on your mood, you might prefer one over the other. Nonetheless, enjoy... :)

Kau begitu sempurna

Dimataku kau begitu indah

Kau membuat diriku akan slalu memujamu

Disetiap langkahku

Kukan slalu memikirkan dirimu

Tak bisa kubayangkan hidupku tanpa cintamu

Janganlah kau tinggalkan diriku

Takkan mampu menghadapi semua

Hanya bersamamu ku akan bisa

Kau adalah darahku

Kau adalah jantungku

Kau adalah hidupku

Lengkapi diriku

Oh sayangku, kau begitu

Sempurna... Sempurna...

Kau genggam tanganku

Saat diriku lemah dan terjatuh

Kau bisikkan kata dan hapus semua sesalku
