Makes Cry, This is the Reason Lesti Cries When Singing Her Latest Single 'Lentera'

Kapanlagi.com - A mother's feelings towards her child are not easily described in words. However, thanks to the spectacular collaboration of Melly Goeslaw as the songwriter, music producer Andi Rianto, and sung by Lesti, the song titled 'Lentera' is able to express the deep feelings of a mother.

“I have wanted to create a song dedicated to a mother for her child, like the song 'Bunda', which is from a child to their mother. The creation process was not too difficult because I imagined what it's like to be a mother, the immense love a mother has for her child, the feeling of anxiety, the strong desire to protect her child,” said Melly Goeslaw.

The lyrics are so touching, expressed through real words, wrapped in the magnificent music by Andi Rianto and Lesti's soul-piercing voice, conveying a profound message in this song.

“The first time I heard and tried to sing this song, I cried, even during the recording. The lyrics give me goosebumps and make me emotional, imagining being a mother, imagining becoming a mother, it's a mix of emotions. Plus, the music created by Uncle Andi makes the song luxurious and special,” said Lesti.

It didn't take long for Andi Rianto to collaborate and work on his music. "This is the first time I made music for a dangdut singer, but the song itself is pop, only sung with Lesti's signature dangdut style, so the music production process didn't take long," explained Andi Rianto.

The song "Lentera" was released by 3D Entertainment as a record label in collaboration with STREAM Entertainment as Lesti's artist management, on all Digital Streaming Platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, Joox, Langit Musik, Resso, and YouTube Music on January 8, 2022. This coincided with the announcement of the name of Lesti and Rizky Billar's child through the Welcome Baby L event, which was broadcasted on Indosiar.

Another interesting thing about Lesti's single "Lentera" is that the music video is directed and performed by her husband, Rizky Billar. Several messages of the song are portrayed by Lesti and Rizky Billar themselves, who were worried during the days before Baby L's birth. The music video "Lentera" feels like a live performance when Lesti sings this song, featuring Andi Rianto as the pianist.

The music video "Lentera" was released on YouTube 3D Entertainment on the same day as the Digital Streaming Platform and successfully reached the trending position #2 on YouTube Indonesia and #15 on YouTube worldwide on the second day after its release.
