그 밤 / The Night (Original)

Dear Summer brings you back to your most painful yet beautiful memory in life. It invites you to stop by, cry over it, embrace it, and say farewell. 

Dear Summer 여름아

Dear Listener, 

This song is about growing up. It's about wanting to run away to somewhere, anywhere, nowhere. It's about a girl who fought with her mom on mother's day, and in her frustration, anger, and grief, wrote a song about it in her closet at 3am a year ago. 

It is for the girl I used to be and still am. The girl who hated the way she looked in this video so much that she only ate protein bars for a good year. The girl who will run on the treadmill for hours trying to run off weight, physically and metaphorically. The girl who still wonders if she'll ever be pretty enough because years of hate are hard to undo.  

But most importantly, it is for you, whoever and wherever you are. And I am sending it to you with all my love from a broken but healing heart.

With all my love,
ESAE

A cover of Mamerico's Kirari Futari. Singing creds go to Kana (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAlrhhN6FsAPYvO9tG4rjWg/)

I don't have great recording equipment so the quality is meh and there's some mic feedback. When life gives you lemons i guess.

Special thanks to Austin Chee, Abe Song, and Taylor James Washington for taking the time to help refine this further and add a killer synth solo.

Thank you to Alex Nguyen for the artwork 

Lyrics 

I dance in the streets with my shoelaces untied
On rainy days I erased my smudged make up
The weekdays seem like weekends
And time ran
Without even noticing I became a boring adult

But I still don’t act like an adult
But I like living this way

Chorus: I got that groove I got that groove I got that groove groove dance babe
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop stop stop hey
I got that groove I got that groove I got that groove groove dance babe
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop stop stop hey

I sing this song when summer is almost over
A long time ago I didn’t sleep and dreamt with my eyes open
I let my hair down and left my high heels next to the door
On days like this, it’s not right to be hiding under blankets

Don’t need sleep 
There are so many things to do before the sun sets
Take a step back
Relax your body and ride the rhythm 

Chorus (x2): I got that groove I got that groove I got that groove groove dance babe
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop stop stop hey
I got that groove I got that groove I got that groove groove dance babe
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop stop stop hey

ESAE라는 이름은 제 한국 이름의 앞 두 글자를 따온 언어유희입니다. 이세는 숫자로 바꾸면 2세라는 단어가 되고, 저는 미국에서 자라고 살고있는 한국인, 즉 2세입니다. 재미교포로서, 저는 중간에서 매우 다른 두 개의 나라와 문화를 접하고 있지만, 어느 쪽에도 완전하게 속하지 않는 기분을 종종 느낄때가 있습니다. 그저 제 음악이 모두한테 인생 속에서 쉼터를 제공해 줄 수 있는 부두가 될 수 있길 바랍니다.

The name ESAE is a play on words involving the first two syllables of my Korean name. 이세 (pronounced ee-say) means second generation, and is an integral part of my identity. As a second generation Korean American, I walk a fine line between two very different worlds and cultures, but often feel like I don’t belong fully to either. I hope that my music can be a dock you can rest at for a little while before you continue sailing through life.

ESAE 這個名字取自於我韓文名字的前兩個字。이세（念做伊斯欸）的意思是「第二代」，對我的人生觀來說是不可或缺的一部分。作為一位韓裔美籍的第二代移民，我小心翼翼的行走在兩個非常不同的世界與文化之間，但我時常覺得我不完全屬於任何一邊。我希望我的音樂能夠成為你在名為人生的旅途中的碼，在你重新啟程前，能夠休息一會兒。
