Taeyeon Japanese Debut

Stay. MV released 29th June.




She released this song soon after her Korean's comeback (Something New, MV released 18th June, which I'm not really feeling) so I was thinking, "argh, maybe it will suck too"

but boy, was I wrong!

I LOVE THE SONG!

and her voice?! (✿ ♥‿♥)

This song gives me the same reaction as I did when I first listened to her I song.

I love this song and it's Japanese, you already know what's coming next:

Time to 'study' this song.

here comes the lyric!

Chikagoro yume sae mo minai anata ga inai koto ga
Nichijou ni natteku nante shinjirarenai
Dare ni mo ienai koto zenbu uchiakete shimaeta no wa
Anata dake datta no ni tonari ni wa inai no

Ima mo mimi ni nokoru Your Voice
Mou ichi do yonde hoshii My name
Naita mama de ichi ni tsuite kao wo agete miru

Go Way hitori da tte igai to takaku toberu watakushi wa ima
Saisei kanō desho? Renewable Energy Maybe yes Maybe no
Way kowaku tatte yuuki wo kakiatsumete fumikiru no yo
Saihai wo furu no wa watakushi yo Maybe yes Maybe no

Haretara kokoro mo harete ame nara ochikomu
Wakari yasui moro sani iki ga kurushiku naru

Ima mo anata nashi ja So Sad tsuyoku dakishimete yo All Again
Nakijakutte nemuri ni tsuku me wo samasanakucha

So Stay hitori datte tamani wa umaku toberu hi mo arukara
Daijōbu datte tsuyogaru no Stay with me Stay with me
Stay naiteta tte jikan wa yōshanaku kitto nagarete yuku
Saikai wo matsu no wa tsurai no (itai no) Stay with me Stay with me

(Ah Ah) Nani ga tarinai?
(Woo Woo) Hitsuyō na mono wa
Sashidashite kara te ni hairu no kanashii koto ja nai

Go Way hitori datte igai to takaku toberu watakushi wa ima
Saisei kanō desho? Renewable Energy Maybe yes Maybe no
Way kowaku tatte yuuki wo kakiatsumete fumikiru no yo
Saihai wo furu no wa watakushi yo (dakedo)
Stay with me Stay with me Stay or go Stay or go


they might not be spelled correctly but yeah...it's still something I can work with ヘ(^_^ヘ)

SM released. and My opinion on it.

I didn't mean to start of my post (after a week of absence) with this; but its about the only thing I can get going on...hahaha please just beruang (bear) with me on this one.

First off,
Jonghyun 2nd Mini Album.
a song called 02:34 is one of the song that have been played most among the 9 songs on the album.



The first song of this album, called The End of the Day, was actually very Jonghyun-i~ and I like it.



and this song, Like You, deserves a mention. not because I like it but because I literally laugh out loud at one point coz I thought I heard him say 'fcuk u' (not the one during the chorus. the one around 1:09-1:12 is the start. you can hear it again thru out the song) hahahaha
have a listen



and the rest of the songs in this album are just ..I'm not crazy about them.  
Maybe it's the music. as Kris (ex-member of EXO) once said, "Naega style aniya".
I know I should be more constructive with my 'criticism' but since I'm no expert (and I'm dead lazy kan berhujah or ber-debate) that's about the only polite way to say it.
that low key, breathy way of singing is also Naega Style Aniya 
I admit that I'm always so proud when I see on some article that says Jonghyun wrote the lyric of this songs and Jonghyun write and compose a song for other artists but that doesn't mean I have to like it, right? I am still entitle to my own opinion and feelings.
I listen to music to get my mind off things, and most of Jonghyun musics make me feel uncomfortable. Not because of the lyrics (coz God knows I don't understand Korean) but just the way it was 'presented'. I don't know eh cemana kan explain lagi. Go figure it out yourselves. but if you happened to like Jonghyun songs, good for you. Jonghyun made this album for you. you don't need to bash me. I still bought his original as a way of supporting his career. even though I'm just one person and may seems like I don't contribute much, the Emperor from Mulan said, 'A single grain of rice can tip the scale. One man maybe the difference between victory and defeat'. LOL nah ko! sampai Mulan ku bawa kemari ani...jua lagi aku inda making my point...hahaha

and btw, his album 'skin' is literally no skin at all. there are no Jonghyun face anywhere.
these are some of the photos from the booklet;

 I thought, "He got it wrong. this is Onew's. His should be a puppy"

this is pretty. almost like Alice in Wonderland theme. Mad-Hatter-ly.

Second off,
Taeyeon 1st Mini Album
fav song? I 



I listened and watched the mv at the same time. My initial reaction was touched. or sebak di dada. or something like that. I hate Taeyeon's acting. but the rest of the mv with the song reminds me of Ireland. I don't know why. maybe it's the green-field scene with kambing. I don't know. it just reminds me of Ireland.
and I've never been to Ireland, mind you. I mostly ever seen glimpse of it from Westlife's DVD footage. So, maybe it just reminds me of Westlife and ultimately of Ireland too.
I like the entire album. the songs choice fits Taeyeon's voice (in my opinion). music wise is well received by my ears and brain. 
But her live performance sucks. and I'm not even sorry for that. She could've done so much better. I don't know what she's trying to hide or why she's holding back. she can do better and I hope that she will. 

annddd
there ya go.
my me-making-an-effort-to-post today.

this post just shows just how you can never judge people from the outside. We will never know what's going on inside their head.
Like me; I LOVE SHINee but I can't seem to kid myself to go gaga over Jonghyun's music releases. and Taeyeon, I have been feeling annoyed with her (all the other SNSD members, really) ever since the Jessica's Cast Out drama. So, I was surprised when I fell in love with her album.

you can never know.

S M Ballad the second

A/N: lupa ku kn post pasal ani. I was supposed to post this like 2/3 weeks ago. LOL. ah well~

Yes, SM Ballad is back. 

wasn't a big fan fan of SM Ballad the first (WALAUPUN ada cJonghyun masa atu).

but now, I do. (bought the Korean version of the mini album back in February)

Pasal bnyk yg ku suka in SM Ballad the second; Jonghyun (of course), Taeyeon (SNSD), Chen (EXO), Zhang Liyin (solo-ist, mainly in China, beautiful voice), Yesung (SuJu), Changmin (DBSK), ZhouMi (SuJu-M), and Krystal (fx). oh wait, semua yg ku suka. LOL. or at least from the group that I like. :P

the song Breath is ... I'm not so sure how I feel about it. 



it is sung by Jonghyun and Taeyeon.
Jonghyun tweeted that Taeyeon unnie's voice is 'honey'. I agree. I'm not even sure if they are still promoting the song at the moment (what's with SNSD comeback and SHINee World Concert kicking off this month). *shrugged*

BUT I know how I feel about this song:



it's called 'A Day Without You' sung by Jonghyun and Chen.
MY FAVORITE OF ALL!!
Amazing vocal collaboration. *thumbs up* 
nice lyrics too. (klu bukan pasal I found the lyrics accidentally today, I wouldn't be posting anything about SM Ballad the second at all hahahaha).

Breath is sung in 3 different languages; Korean, Japanese and Chinese. 
Japanese version is sung by Changmin and Krystal.
Chinese version is sung by Chen and Zhang Liyin.

I haven't heard anything about Zhang Liyin for a very long time, so I'm glad she's involve with SM Ballad now. her voice is amazing. Lupa ku how I came across about her dulu atu. but for sure pasal Super Junior and BoA lah... Anyhoo, I hope she'd be more active now. :)

enjoy the song peeps. Klu lapas2 putus cinta, bisai ni lagu ah..to help you move on..
(didn't help me though. ketawa ku, ada plang..LOL)
