Swan Song - LE SSERAFIM

Information:

Swan Song is track of the EASY album. The song is R&B and members Huh Yunjin, Kim Chaewon, Sakura and Kazuha all have writing credits on this song.

The song is about how although they look graceful and effortless, they struggle. They work hard and they want you to see that.

Lyrics:

“The only thing that I got were wounds

Whip it, whip, I never rested

I was dancing to survive”

“So many days, so many nights, so many tears

Sometimes I'm nervous

Even if I get so much love, I'd still want more

I'm scared, greed is killing me”

“If I stop writing the stories, they'll shame me

I'll pretend to be elegant

Dive like a swan even though I'm out of breath”

My commentary:

Love, older you - ILLIT!

Information:

Love, older you is a track off of ILLIT’s album MAMIHLAPINATAPAI. It’s alternative pop and all five members have writing credits on said song.

The song is a letter of love to your younger self. It presents words of comfort that one would want to give to their younger self that was going through a hard time. Overcoming hardship and letting yourself know that you made it.

Lyrics:

“Dear younger me

Will I become a tiny speck of dust and disappear?”

“The child in the mirror

You hate them more than anyone else

The tears you've swallowed

Have formed an ocean in your heart”

“In a dark, long night, alone in your room

You would curl up and fall asleep

By your bedside, on the damp pillow

A letter I leave for you”

“Don't hold it in, it's okay to cry, you're doing well

Love, older you”

“All those tears will give the future you

Even stronger wings

I'll hold you and say it's okay, I believe in you

Love, older you”

My commentary:

Look - Red Velvet

Remain by my side, stay”

My commentary:

Cherish - IVE

Information:

Cherish is a song of the album “I’ve IVE” the song is dance-pop with a blend elements of from synth-pop and r&b.

My interpretation of the song is that it’s about a confident girl taking a step into a relationship. Her attention usually only on herself is now taken by another person. She’s stunned at first but notices the other person seems to have interest as well and boldly without any hesitation tells that she’ll cherish them and teach them what perfect chemistry is.

Lyrics:

“I used to be interested in just myself

But when I look at you, my heart pumps out loud”

“Get over here, you're already looking at me

I'm gonna cherish you, you, you, you”

My commentary:

Take My Half - Tomorrow X Together!

Information:

Take My Half is a solo from Choi Beomgyu off of the Star Chapter: Together album. He has composing, writing and producing credits on the song.

The song is a rock ballad and is about sharing a part of yourself with another. Selflessly giving a piece away as an act of not only love but gratitude. It’s to give happiness to a person you deeply care about so they don’t go without. Sharing a burden with another and letting the other know that they aren’t alone out of desire to be happy with them.

“I’m the kind of person who always thinks I’d give up my own happiness to stop someone I care about from being unhappy. Or if it means they can be happy, I’d share anything I have - and that’s what this song is about.” - Choi Beomgyu

This one is a bit of a tie in with his previous solo song called Panic which I will do a song recommendation on later.

Lyrics:

These are some lyrics I enjoyed and/or resonated with:

“The more you have, the emptier you feel”

“Now even the smallest things (even)

I'll leave half empty for you (I'll leave it)”
