Background and recording

"The song is catchy, fresh and not too hard to understand. The lyrics for this song is a story about a wife's sacrifices. Taken from my own experience. I want the song to be able to be an inspiration to women anywhere. That we should give our best, no limits. If I can, so should other women."

During the creation of Fragmen, Siti received a song offer from Universal Music Malaysia which she later accepted. [2] According to Siti, "I received Ade's song from Universal Music Malaysia. I instantly wanted that song, because it is easy to listen to and to touch [my] feelings. 'Terbaik Bagimu' tells a story of how a wife who is giving the best [of her] to the husband but still feeling it is lacking". [2] [lower-alpha 2]

She also revealed that the original title, "Masih Kurang" (Insufficient), and certain parts of the lyrics were altered to deliver more positive connotations. [3] She asked Ade's permission to alter a few elements of the lyrics and rename the song prior to recording it. [3]
