Golden Cañedo relates new single to relationship with non-showbiz boyfriend

A song about chance encounters and dealing with the realities of love,

Golden Cañedo's new song “Walang Hanggang Sandali” definitely resonates with the young Kapuso singer.

Golden is set to release her fresh single under GMA Music on August 25. According to the Season 1 grand champion of The Clash, her new song “Walang Hanggang Sandali” speaks volumes to her as she opens up about her long-distance relationship with her non-showbiz boyfriend Martin Raval.

Like her song that highlights serendipitous love, Golden shared that their love story also began as a chance encounter. The young Kapuso singer revealed this during her media conference with members of the press today, August 20.

Golden met Martin in New York, USA when she took the trip as part of Studio 7's international concert.

Golden admitted, “'Yun din po 'yung nangyari sa amin. It's like chance encounter din po ang nangyari. Nagkita po kami doon and doon na po nag-start na nag-DM (direct message) po siya sa Instagram.”

She recalled that Martin has sent her messages from way back in 2017 but she only took notice of his DMs after meeting him in New York.

She said, “Hindi ko din alam na bakit na-replyan ko siya sa dinami-rami ng nagcha-chat po sa akin. 'Yun po. Siguro it's God talaga na may plan po talaga si God at may reason po talaga si God kung bakit napunta po siya sa life ko.”

Fast forward to August 14, Golden and Martin have already reached their first anniversary. The young couple maintains a long-distance relationship but they don't sweat out this less than ideal situation.

This is also the reminder of “Walang Hanggang Sandali” that speaks not only about chance encounters but also the realities of love.

Golden explained the message her single, saying, “Ang relasyon may kaba, takot, kilig, may ganun po na lyrics… parang hindi lang po all the time masaya 'yung relationship. So doon din po makakakuha, makakapulot kayo ng aral na nasa lyrics din po na teka, wait lang. Parang, 'ano ba 'to, nangyayari ba talaga 'to?' 'I will take a risk ba talaga sa love… or magte-take time muna ako to think?'”

Golden's “Walang Hanggang Sandali” will be available for download and streaming worldwide starting August 25. In the meantime, you can enjoy its exclusive airtime on Barangay LS 97.1.
