Bingkai Karya – Govinda returns with a touching new single titled “Karya Seni Favorit”, offering a fresh chapter in their musical journey one filled with emotional maturity, honesty, and heartfelt melodies. The song is part of their exclusive album, “GOVINDA LIVE STUDIO SESSION – LONDON 2023”, recorded live at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.
“Karya Seni Favorit” stands out as a medium-tempo ballad, blending acoustic warmth with full-band arrangements that feel both intimate and grand. It captures the essence of loving someone so deeply, they become your most cherished piece of art.
“Kamulah karya seni
Favoritku
Kubingkai dalam hati
Terekam sepanjang waktu”
These lyrics reflect deep admiration likening love to a timeless painting that never loses its wonder, something to proudly protect and treasure.
Recording the song live at Abbey Road Studios was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for Govinda. Ade Govinda, guitarist, songwriter, and A&R at MyMusic Records, shared:
“We’ve never had a song with this kind of tempo before. It’s a fresh blend, a medium ballad with acoustic elements but still full of energy. Recording it live at Abbey Road, a legendary studio, made it even more meaningful. This song isn’t just about love, it’s about seeing someone as your favorite masterpiece, something you want to hold onto and be proud of.”
Irfan, Govinda’s lead vocalist, added:
“This song represents our growth. We never imagined writing something like this before, the arrangement, the lyrics, the theme it’s all new for us. It encourages people to care for and celebrate their partner, just like they would with a priceless work of art.”
With smooth melodies, emotional depth, and a refined arrangement, “Karya Seni Favorit” signals Govinda’s evolution embracing a more expressive and musically mature identity.
As one of the spotlight tracks in their Abbey Road live album, the song captures the raw and vulnerable spirit of their time in London. The album itself features live renditions of Govinda’s biggest hits along with unreleased songs, all recorded without overdubs or retakes.
Luki Govinda shared:
“This album is our most honest work. Everything was recorded live nothing was staged. ‘Karya Seni Favorit’ became the most emotional part of that session. Every note and word came from the heart.”
More than a romantic anthem, the song is also a tribute to love in all its forms romantic, platonic, familial, and even spiritual. It’s a reminder that anyone we love deserves to be treated as if they were a priceless masterpiece.
“Karya Seni Favorit” was officially released on July 25, 2025, and is now streaming on all major digital music platforms. The official music video is also available on MyMusic Records’ YouTube channel.
