Bernard Park Debut 12102014

Great news! Bernard Park made his debut yesterday and today is the official album release, 'I'm..'.


The first time I listen to this song, I have to say it was a bit dragging.. And plus I don't understand the lyrics. But the MV is so sad.. My attention was shifted towards the MV but the scene on the bus was a bit too long.. Hehehe.. The actor and actress are really good-looking though. The second time I listened to it (during SuperKpop show at Arirang radio), I started to like the song. Sorry Bernard.. Some songs you need to listen to it a few times for you adjust to it.


The MV for 'Before The Rain' has been released today! Woohoo~ I really love the MV and song! No joke. Honestly, when I listen to him singing live yesterday, I wasn't really impressed.. It was OK but it's a bit lacking.. Huhu.. Turns out he was not in a good condition for his debut stage. (I got to know that after listening to him at Arirang radio. Well, hope he gets well soon..) The MV was much better because I think that is his usual voice.. The voice that I love~

Here is the snippets of each songs in his album. All the songs are mellow~ I like some of the songs but, like I said, I don't understand the lyrics. I'm more attracted to the melody and his voice.. ㅋㅋㅋ..

LOST

Life goes on like a bullet train
Yet I am the only one left behind
Not knowing which one is my station
Or even where am I going

I stand on this busy street
Everyone is rushing somewhere
Yet I hold on to my broken compass
Not knowing which way to head for

I look around
Looking for a glimpse of compassion
Seeking for a tinge of kindness
Begging for a trace of empathy

But all I got in return was dejection
The people is so cold
They never have a proper look
To realize the lost soul inside of me

Kpop Star 3: Chameleon by Something

During TOP 8 performance, the duo group Something performed their own song. They were under a lot of pressure as other contestants can performed other singer's song while they have to come up with their own song within such a short time. I truly pity them. The burden to do much better this time, as they had almost been eliminated before, is just soooooo... BURDENSOME. They had been pointed out before by the judges that they need to find their own 'colors'. So, they decided to wrote a song about 'Chameleon'.


Download link: Chameleon - Something

We don't know anything
What should I be when I grow up
All I need is Mom and Dad
That's all I need

Under 'My dream' in my elementary school yearbook
My dream was to be the president
That dark 13-years-old boy was like the color of the sky
But became an adult in the gray world
My dream is to be a civil servant
My dream is to be an office worker
I'm gradually losing my color
I like green color but the world is gray
I hide myself again today
I'm a chameleon

Chorus:
I hide my longtime dream
Kept it a secret
I want to shout it out
I'm going to stop crying
Tonight is black
I sing in the darkness
Chameleon

Rap:
After I wake up from that long dream
I won't see you again in the morning
The starlight clears, the sun shines
Should I go to sleep by singing?

Although I became an adult in this gray world
My dream here
I sing of my dream
I want to find my color green.. gray..
I hide myself again today
I adjust my color to reality
And I hide myself
I live today, even tomorrow
And maybe even the day after
I'm a chameleon

The commentaries were very discouraging. Again, they were pointed out by JYP that the song was boring. It was so frustrating to not show any improvement even when they did tried their best. I think they really played guitar well and the melody of the songs are addictive. It's just they need to learn how to compose a song properly. It's not easy.. They are still young and I think they will do better if they are being well-guided. In terms of fan base, I think they have a lot of people all around the world that are rooting for them. Jung Sae Woon & Kim Ah-Hyun fighting!!! Himnae-seyo!!!

Unfortunately, this was the last performance from them. Thank you all for supporting them and dropping by my blog!

Kpop Star 3: Sam Kim

[Latest update: Sam Kim signed under Antenna Music]

Wow! I am impressed with Sam Kim. Initially I was not interested to know much about him because I think his singing was unstable. The only good point was his guitar skills are amazing, except the fact that his beat was a bit off. He even admitted himself that he plays the guitar faster as he gets nervous. However, ever since he is a part of EQ, I can see that he improved a lot. I even came to like his voice during all the EQ and Bns (= Bernard and Sam) performances.

I don't know much about him except that he is 16 years old and lived in Seattle, Washington. He started playing guitar 2 years ago when one of his friends brought her guitar to school.

He sang 'Sweet Pea' by Amos Lee and 'Stronger Than' by Gabe Bondoc for his audition. 


(You can see his performances with EQ if you click on 'EQ' label below.)

For Battle Audition, he performed 'I'm in Love' Originally by Ra.D. Wah ~ I was amazed by his performance. His beat has improved! It really pays off for him to practice with a metronome 30 minutes a day. This time, he has to compete against The Shorties and Yao Wei Tao. He said he wanted to avenge EQ for their previous lost and he did win! Well done Sam!


I'm in Love - Sam Kim

For TOP10 performance, all the contestants are divided into 2 groups and everyone in the group will be rank first to fifth. Fourth and fifth place will become the candidates for elimination. Unfortunately for Sam Kim, he was the first to perform and he was grouped along with Almeng, Bernard, Shorties and Kwon Jin Ah. It was so nerve-wrecking for him so his performance was a bit lacking, I would say. Then, he was placed on the bottom of the ranking together with Bernard Park for Group A. Despite that, quite a number of judging panels voted for him to win so he got into TOP8.



Kpop Star 3: Excuse Me Sir by Something


Something has to compete against All Chae and Jung Hanna during battle audition. The melody of the song is nice but the lyrics are boring. According to JYP, "you could have tell the story in 20 minutes but you guys are taking the whole hour". In the end, nobody wins or loses. All three of them have to go through re-match.

Excuse Me Sir - Something

Excuse me sir
Where am I right now?
I fell asleep because it was warm
  and it's already the last stop

Excuse me sir
Where should I go?
I know that you're busy but
   can I ask for directions?
People are passing by
Color of an unfamiliar city
I'm placed in the middle
   standing absently

Please repeat it to me again
I'm not good with directions
Could you tell me slowly?
You speak a little too fast
Slowly slow-slowly (2X)

Excuse me boy
Where am I right now?
I'm in love for the first time
I need some directions

Excuse me girl
Where should I go?
I know that you're busy but
   can I ask for directions?
Oh.. wait a minute please
I think I'm lost
Since that day, I've been lingering
   around you

Please repeat it again
i don't know much about love
Could you tell me kindly?
It's hard to understand you
Slowly slow-slowly (2X)

Excuse me sir

Then for rematch, they performed 'Come Back Home' originally by Seo Taiji and the Boys. The song is somewhat gloomy but the melody is very addictive.
