Awake and Asleep (D-LITE)

This is composed by the same person who did Rainy Rainy, and the moment I listened to this song, I could imagine myself singing it. The recording part didn’t go as well as I thought it would be, especially with the pronunciation of words like sonnna (with nn) and the voiced-consonant marks. The lyrics is about “being with you is very fortunate, stay by my side, let’s keep on spending time together.” It had temporary lyrics initially and this phrase and the melody of the chorus, “Let’s keep it as it is, let’s keep it as it is” touched my heart so we kept it.

For me, the happiest moment is when I am performing on stage. Thinking that I can sing again and being able to have a happy time with fans using my voice/songs is unbelievably the happiest moment. Because the fans are there with me, I can keep singing and that is my promise to you all. This song is very beautiful and I’m able to sing it while I soak my feelings into it. I hope everyone gets into this song and feels the same as me.

Dress - DLite

When I first listened to this song, the track and the vocal seemed very difficult and I had to think how to sing it in my voice. When I record, I record the song I think most difficult last, so this was the song I recorded at the very last. I thought it will take about 2 days to finish recording, but the process went smoothly, so it only took a day.

I practiced so many times before recording, but rather than trying to use skills, I thought focusing on the feelings would be better, so I tried to keep clear thoughts in my heart and sang. Also, as I sang it, I realized things I never knew about myself as a vocalist, and it opened up a new scope for me. The title “Even When The World Ends” characterizes this song. It simply expresses the feeling to the person you love that as long as she or he is there, it’s all good. When I wrote the words “I can die for for you,” I was worried if it was too much, but I thought expressing it this way would be good for this song (laughs). It has that much magnificence.

Even At The End Of The World - DLite

While I was training at 12 noon at YGE, YG called me and said, “Where are you? Come to the 3rd floor recording room right now.” I was worried there was something wrong, but he suddenly said, “Sing this song.” I recorded it and he said, “Awesome. Let’s add it to the list.” So we decided to add this song last minute. The lyrics are written by G-Dragon so I love it. Because we have different personalities, the mood is very different compared to what I write. I think this broadens the charm of the album, and my voice, melody, and the pitch all matched, so I was able to sing it smoothly. More than anything, I can’t use the phrase “shut up” in real life, but I say it so many times in the song so it feels very good… I am satisfied (laughs) It relieves your stress and it’s simply a fun song, so I want everyone to have fun with it too. If you have some troubles that you can’t say out loud, stare at the wall and listen to this song and yell “shut up!” Don’t say it to a person but say it to the wall.

Shut Up -DLite

This is the song that shows my true feelings now. Being alone is better that being with someone… Haha. Joking aside, this isn’t a sad break-up song, but rather a situation when it’s good to break up. At first, the phrase “alone than two” came up and I tried to come up with the characters and the story. The lady in the song is very bad (laughs). The man falls in love at first sight because of her beauty, but the lady puts other guys in the same situation. When the guy asks the girl, she tries to get away by saying things like, “that was a misunderstanding.” Such a devilish woman. This story isn’t something I can relate to, but it’s fun to act the character in the song in such situation. The lyrics “freedom… freedom…” show my true feelings that I want to be free and I sang it openly. After watching the live video of Queen’s “Kind of Magic”, I decided to arrange it like that so I can have fun on stage. I want people to clap their hands and have fun together.

Tow people??  Alone! - DLite

We weren’t planning to put this song in the album. YG said, “Something is lacking. I don’t know how to express it, but something is lacking,” so it was put on hold. But I really love this song and wanted it on my album, so I tried many things and ended up bringing the key a half level up and recorded it. YG said, “Now there are emotions in that song,” and we added it to the track list. I wrote the lyrics with a YG producer so it went very smooth because we know each other. It is about a character who keeps his feelings towards someone, comparing the loneliness to the cold winter season. When winter passes and spring comes, the piled snow melts as you touch it with your warm hands, but he won’t touch it so his memories don’t melt (fade). Why is my heart still in the cold winter season… So painful. Please listen to this song and deepen your feelings towards the one you love.
