I always noticed this with the song "Fine" because the original English demo ("Hear My Cry") had catchier lyrics but Taeyeon's version has more emotional lyrics.
I think those people on the bus are different voices in her, and also in our head, sometimes self-doubting, sometimes self-defeating, but as long as there is one voice supporting us, although it is just a small voice and seems weak, it can turn out powerful and motivate us to keep on going. And whenever there is a difficulty, all voices have a common goal and work together. In the end they were all back to their house - TY, feeling safe and happy. So just face these voices genuinely, cause no matter how they look like, they make you you.
It's a song about realizing you've been too harsh on yourself and it's time you stop and be the person who will honestly embrace you for who you are, who will hold you closely and love you deeply. Meeting the version of you that you didn't know who exist and telling yourself that you'll never lose 'you' again. Perhaps, it's for everyone who've been struggling to accept themselves wholeheartedly because of their past decisions that hurt them and maybe 'Letter to Myself' could be a reminder for all of us that it's okay, that even if we're lost at some point in life, we're bound to find ourselves again and grow on our own pace.
I agree. How you can have such an incredible talent and not promote her? Taeyeon will bloom in so many differente projects and musical directions if she were well promoted. Her talent has no barriers. Not no speak of the international dimension, until now completely neglected.
I've been thinking about this issue on and off since the album release. I think I would like to amend my comment here, behind artists there is an army of managers, content creators, editors, song writers, etc. All of these people in the background help bring artists voice to life, and I do not want to undermine their efforts to bring us fans amazing releases by our favorite artists like Taeyeon. It comes down to SM's leadership and decisions on what/who will get prioritized, and that's where the blame should be placed for how the lack of promotions goes.
The way the song slowly unveals the main character's progression - from a self-doubting, uncertain person hurting from suppressing her emotions and thoughts, she learns to embrace this hurt and grows to love and express her inner self more freely... and you can suddenly hear that change - when she 'met the part of me that was hidden' - the exact moment her 'I wrote a letter to myself' line brightened up in the second chorus. It's so much more energetic and loud, confident and self-assertive... She finds strength and clarity within herself, and she promises to never lose it again. And to deliver so much of that message so effectively just through her vocal performance... her artistry is just something else. Taeyeon is one of Kpop's best vocalists for a reason.
Taeyeon really does it once again. Letter To Myself is probably a song that Taeyeon made to comfort her younger self but in a way, somehow, the adult Taeyeon is comforting the younger me in the past too. Knowing what Taeyeon went through during her younger days, hearing this song and seeing the lyrics as well makes this even much more emotional and touching. Thank you Taeyeon for choosing and fighting for this song to be the title track, I love it so much already and I somehow teared up watching this masterpiece. It shall hold a special place in my heart and continue comforting me for many days and years to come 🥹💜
Taeyeon is really the best soloist of K-pop. Her voice is everything! All her songs give a different vibe and it’s very interesting to see the lyrics chosen for her songs
I still remember how i felt when "I" was first released back in 2015, and throughout these 9 years, Taeyeon's music still makes me feel the same way every time. I feel so lucky to have grown up with her 💖💝💗💓
i don’t understand korean, so I can’t speak it or truly understand this song. i’m very thankful for the translated ENG lyrics, because it helps me understand a bit more. many of taeyeon’s songs touch my heart, and this one does the same. it makes me want to cry, and reading the lyrics, while hearing taeyeon’s voice just hits me in the feels. thank you taeyeon..
*I think this is the perfect song for all the people who are trying to heal from their past.* *Write letters to themselves while listening to this song. This is how this song fits in perfectly.* *What about the voices in the head? Write them down in those letters too.*
그니까 저 영국 친구들이 다 태연인 거야.... 내가 누군지도 모를 만큼 내 안에 내가 많던 나 자신, 스스로 자신을 괴롭히고, 자신에게 공을 던지고 자신을 놀리던 사람이 다 자기 자신이었던 거야.. 자기 혐오가 가득하던 나였지만 이젠 버스(자신의 마음)를 고치려 하는 거지. 물론 그 과정이 힘들었지만 계속 노래하며 자기를 사랑하게 된 태연이는 더 이상 외롭지 않은 거야.. 스스로 자길 위로할 줄 알게 되었으니까.. 마지막에 웃으며 사진 찍는 모습에서 이젠 자기를 사랑하게 된 것 같아. 덕분에 나도 위로 받았어..
Dear Taeyeon and staffs, thanks for working hard to make the best album. The title "Letter to Myself" helped me see myself. At that time, my mind was verry messy with many voices. Yes, I wrote a letter to myself. Yes, we should do that. Love you, Taeyeon.
The rain, the bus, the randomness. It really captured merry old England. In university, they used to call a random bus tour to the country a Magical Mystery Tour. Drink was often involved.
Thank you Taeyeon, you're still so passionate even in your 17th year. From that 14yo holding her father's hand at the academy to winning 1st place in SM's competition when you were 15yo. And then 20 years of constantly training yourself and overcoming all the harshness of idol life. Some people brag about records, MV views and all those meaningless metrics but you show us character and long-running passion that builds a legacy that makes us so proud of you. We will be listening to you as long as you want to sing. Love you so much Taeyeon, you're really the best vocalist and my one and only singer.
I cried when I heard this song, Taeyeon's voice and the message of this song touched my heart. Another masterpiece was born. Thank you Tae for always being sincere with every song, always respecting your audience with quality products.
Still, it’s not doing the label any favour, especially when this was hardly promoted. I appreciate the artistry by existing acts I’ve been following since their debut. But the label as a whole has been lacking lately.
One of the most exciting things about Taeyeon is seeing her fans’ reactions. From different countries and languages, everyone is moved; her songs resonate with everyone, helping them to live and breathe a little easier. All those messages create a touching and very sincere, delicate mosaic
at this point Taeyeon chooses everything about her carrer, I don't understand why you're blaming SM. If Taeyeon isn't promoting this song is because she doesn't want to.
This is definitely the song of the year. Seriously, I've been following Taeyeon for ten years, she's been present in every moment of my life, whether happy or sad. She was part of my adolescence and I think it's incredible, how I can connect with all of her songs. 'Letter To Myself' couldn't be any different, it's something deep, hard to explain. I admire her so much!
What I like about Taeyeon's songs is that you'll never get fed up. The story speaks to me, her voice speaks to me, her music speaks to me, Taeyeon is a real artist
Well done Taeyeon! You released the song that not all people can sing it, except Taeyeon yourself. Those highnotes OMG. Not all idols dare to cover this song.
@@imjustherefortheksLet’s not be unrealistoc with the part that LS could sing it. Ain’t no way even Yunjin could hit these notes without sounding like she’s screaming.
@@justbecausedanae well maybe they can't, but let's not be unrealistic that this is a hard song to sing. Not even "high notes". It is mediocre to be generous... I sincerely don't know why SM is doing that. They were always known for having refined songs, somehow challenging to sing, and now they are abandoning it. The same thing is happening to aespa...
Everyone at some point in their life needs to hear all those words so that they'll stop self-doubting & being harsh on themselves for the past. Thank you so much Taeyeon for giving us such a beautiful song with a beautiful life lesson❤️
저 많은 사람들이 결국엔 과거와 미래의 자신의 모습이었고 그렇게 과거의 나와 미래의 내가 앞에서 끌고 뒤에서 밀어도 가면서 험한 인생이라는 길을 버스를 타고 같이 달려왔고 힘든 일도 우울한 날도 있었지만 그렇게 집 (목적지)에 다다라서 오늘도 슬픔 대신 추억을 빼곡히 채워보는 letter to myself
Dear Taeyeon, Your voice is my strength, i do my work and almost of my daily activity with your demure voice. Your voice really melting me softly. Im your fans (sone) since 2011, since you look like a baby until now❤❤ Sending Unlimited Love, please come to Indonesia. I'll come to you, i promise
Taeyeon never fails to amaze me, this song is just to soulful 😭 The lyrics, the rythm, the music, the voice, the music video, the way all sorts of art combining in one piece of song? and the way Taeyeon is still making her name competing in 4 different gen? Mother Taeyeon indeed 🥺
My first thought after listening to this song is I’ve found my inner peace to embrace the younger self. Sometimes our life was at the lowest point and unexpected things happened without planning. Last year was my lowest point. I need to go back and forth, go to a different city just to be the caretaker of my mom and my sister. At the same time, I also have my own struggle that I need to complete my thesis of a master's degree. It was tiring, stressed, and my shoulder had so much pressure on it. I can relate the scene on the bus, I often self-doubting myself. And now, the moment has been passed. On the other hand, I need to write a letter for myself, thanking myself that I didn’t give up. Thank you Taeyeon, your song is a genuine masterpiece! ❤
My biggest support to SM by denouncing the dangerous brainless people who are dedicated to defaming and insulting Taeyeon on social media. Taeyeon is not only one of the best singers in the world but she is also a wonderful person full of kindness and beauty. ❤❤❤❤
Many today’s generation denied that girls generation as a whole is the real blueprint of today’s girl group!! Whoever hear their girl group name will instantly remembered who are the members are 😅 Every member of SNSD is successful in their paths that they chosen!! E.g Taeyeon is and still the current vocal king 😅😅
You leave the same comment to every group, maybe thinking that's a compliment, but it is demeaning. If you like the groups, don't wish them bad things.
She doesn't even need to bw famous as Beyonce or Taylor. Ppl we'll see her performance and will fall in love with her voice. Also her music like this album, INVU and Purpose are for western taste more I believe. They'll love it
I love this whole concept, from the music, the message, the way it was shot and directed. There's a reason why Taeyeon is still going strong after 18 years. What a delight.
I의 연장선 같음ㅠㅠ 가사도 뮤비 내용도 감동적임.. 저 버스가 무얼 의미할까 생각을 해봤는데 인생을 버스에 빗댄걸까 싶고. 함께 버스에 탄 사람들은 인생이란 노선을 돌면서 만난 인연, 추억, 깨달음 같은 각각의 경험치라고 생각함.. 솔로 데뷔 10주년을 앞두고 하나의 노선을 다 돌아 종점이자 집인 곳에서 이 노래를 수기처럼 들랴주는 거 같음.. 노래 오래오래 불러주세요 태연웅니..💗
GOOSEBUMPSSS! LITERALLY HAD GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME THE HOOK "MY HEAD MY HEAD" IS PLAYED! Also the MV with all those characters representing the "many voices in our heads".. whew genius. AND ROCKER TAEYEON ALWAYS SLAYSSS!
this song feels soo sad yet hopeful i think this song conveys that filling up and replacing you traumatic past with hope and beautiful memories is what loving yourself is ...........wow! amazing lyrics
I’ve been your fan since 2013, and 11 years later, I’m still here, supporting you and admiring your work. You’ve never disappointed me. Over the years, I’ve seen how talented and dedicated you are, and you’ve always been the best singer in my heart. If I could tell you one thing, it’s that you’ve done such a great job in everything you do. I’m just a fan, but I’ll always support you for the rest of my life. I’ve never regretted knowing you. It started by chance when I saw your name on RUclips, but now I’m truly determined to be your fan forever.
I’ve been your fan for so long that, lately, looking at you feels like home. It might not seem like something grand, but to me, it means so much. Listening to your music has been a part of an entire stage of my life, and that makes you truly special. Even if I live to be old and forgetful, I believe the memories I have of you will be hard to fade. I love you! King Taeyeon💜👑
@@iwillsleepwithyourman94 that is your personal preference, you are free to think whichever you want. But this is definitely not lazy, if you were really following her solo music journey. I dont mean knowing her songs, but also know the story of her choices in her previous work.
This was an open door into healing into letting go of all the past and hurt. I've written numerous letters to myself and to others for closure and healing and it's so liberating and it really helps me free myself from baggage I should no longer carry on and this song really spoke volumes to myself. Thank you Queen Taeyeon for your art ♡
I think an English version of this is a perfect song to expose taeyeon to other people. This sound is so beyond kpop for some reason I can’t yet explain but i can think of a lot of people that would like this but are not just aware of it because they’re not in the kpop sphere.
@@ran2123 I think English version is unnecessary. If the global folks should get a taste of Kpop music, let them taste it in its authentic way; with majority Korean lyrics. Kpop songs typically already have some English words and phrases in them anyway, which is enough. I've seen cases where Kpop idols/companies are so desperate to make English versions of their hit songs or even produce the original version entirely in English, and it only made it sound weird and off, it doesn't have the typical Kpop allure to it anymore. Plus, it's feeding into the old, racist narrative that "English songs are superior" and "A song has to be in English to reach global listeners", which is so false, backwards and discriminative. I think the mindset should be "Let's make Kpop music mainstream to the global public" instead of "Let's slowly erase the K from Kpop so that it becomes mainstream to the global public".
@@bulanayu9529 Outside of social media, i only know a few handful of people who actively listens to kpop. How many people do you know who actively listens to kpop?
@@ran2123 I know a whole lot of people in real life who listen to Kpop, either a full stan of a few groups & soloist or just a general listener. Even when I'm just passing by in public places, I keep seeing countless strangers humming Kpop songs or having Kpop idols' merches attached on their bags, purses, phone cases and other stuffs.
Taeyeon, the artist who never stops growing and delivering masterpieces with every release! Whenever she drops a new song, it feels like the music world is blessed with the beauty of her voice and the deep emotions she pours into her craft. No matter the genre, she has this magical ability to make listeners feel every word and every note. This new song is bound to be another hit! Wishing for skyrocketing views, top charts on every platform, and a melody that everyone can't help but sing along to. Taeyeon, fighting! We’ll always be here to support you!
You never changed... That's what makes you you, your younger self's eyes looking up at you, while you cry your heart out. So hug yourself once so that you know how you love that little girl
I always feel taeyeon 's songs different from K-pop. They are still catchy but not repeat like tiktok song. They are art
I always noticed this with the song "Fine" because the original English demo ("Hear My Cry") had catchier lyrics but Taeyeon's version has more emotional lyrics.
Because her songs always have a deep meaning.
i agree with you. Her style is different from majority K-Pop songs.. She was unique.. top quality
Depending what season she releases an album. Spring/Summer more upbeat or bubblegum pop. Fall/Winter pop rock, R&B, more emotional, ballads.
Taeyeon is kpop!
I think those people on the bus are different voices in her, and also in our head, sometimes self-doubting, sometimes self-defeating, but as long as there is one voice supporting us, although it is just a small voice and seems weak, it can turn out powerful and motivate us to keep on going. And whenever there is a difficulty, all voices have a common goal and work together.
In the end they were all back to their house - TY, feeling safe and happy. So just face these voices genuinely, cause no matter how they look like, they make you you.
NOT YOU MAKING ME CRY T_T
Awweeeeeee 😢
Like the movie inside out
got teary eyed a bit once the lyrics sunk in
BRO U GAVE ME CHILLS WELL DONE
Darling, I'm a masterpiece, a work of art
LOUDER

Hi my name is fabulous your, favorite star
YASS PERIOD!
@@solorankwarrior 'Don't you know I'm rare like caviar, tasty on your plate'

So true
Thanks for this. I was trying to formulate the meaning of the song.
Beautiful.
That sum ups all the MV. Thank you
Yes 😢🖤
SM’s consistent failure to promote Taeyeon is saddening. She put so much time/effort into it. Great album that should get more love
I agree. How you can have such an incredible talent and not promote her? Taeyeon will bloom in so many differente projects and musical directions if she were well promoted. Her talent has no barriers. Not no speak of the international dimension, until now completely neglected.
seriously!! she’s literally their best soloist (argue w the wall)
The fact taeyeon is sm asset but they can't even do bare minimum is so disappointing
I've been thinking about this issue on and off since the album release. I think I would like to amend my comment here, behind artists there is an army of managers, content creators, editors, song writers, etc. All of these people in the background help bring artists voice to life, and I do not want to undermine their efforts to bring us fans amazing releases by our favorite artists like Taeyeon. It comes down to SM's leadership and decisions on what/who will get prioritized, and that's where the blame should be placed for how the lack of promotions goes.
I MISS HER SONGS LIKE THIS. IT'S GIVING MY VOICE ERA 😭😭😭
omg I feel the same way!! It's my favourite kind of music from Taeyeon
YESSS I DID FEEL THE SAME TOO, the instrumentals, melody progression and emotional lyrics
this is now my favorite TY song😭😭
me too literally tearing up
I cried because too many people ignore this precious girl and this masterpiece!!!
Keep Streaming!!
SM should promote Taeyeon in US,London,Italy,Sweden,Denmark,Australia,Greece,Swiss,Luxemburg.

wait, she had to fight for this song too??? the way she fought for INVU??? gosh, SM never learned.
Taeyeon is really the best soloist of K-pop. Her voice is everything! All her songs give a different vibe and it’s very interesting to see the lyrics chosen for her songs
Smtown please make Taeyeon have a Worldwide Tour. I never saw her Live and i am a sone of 10Years. I love Taeyeon let her come to zürich!

Can anyone recommend a song like this please?

People are sleeping on this song - it definitely deserves more attention. Taeyeon never fails to deliver. I absolutely love it!
She doesn't have any bad song
This is literally a masterpiece
and her vocal amaze me every time
i don’t understand korean, so I can’t speak it or truly understand this song. i’m very thankful for the translated ENG lyrics, because it helps me understand a bit more.
many of taeyeon’s songs touch my heart, and this one does the same. it makes me want to cry, and reading the lyrics, while hearing taeyeon’s voice just hits me in the feels.
thank you taeyeon..
*I think this is the perfect song for all the people who are trying to heal from their past.*
*Write letters to themselves while listening to this song. This is how this song fits in perfectly.*
*What about the voices in the head? Write them down in those letters too.*
The timing is insane..I'm at the lowest point of my life because of my lover. I am so glad she released this song, thank you Taeyeon
I hope you'll soon escape that lowest point of you lifee. Fighting!
You got this!
Stay strong, you can do it! 💪🏼
Hope you'll find peace in that difficulty 💪🏻💜

IT SHOULD BE NO.1 ON MELON
*I’m a simple girl, I see Taeyeon and I click*
This woman doesn't have a single bad song. I love the album. I get addicted to it every time I listen to it ❤️
This song fills up your heart with so many emotions and Taeyeon’s voice feels like it’s telling us “it’s ok, it will be ok!!”
Just got off from the recording behind and I can't believe people are sleeping on this masterpiece. Taeyeon poured her all in this 😭

뮤비 진짜 좋다,, 진짜 뭔가 한국인감성임 인생을 짧게 되돌아보는느낌 태연뮤비는컨셉이아니라 그런느낌이 좀있음,, 언제나 상처받고 고민하는데 그순간도 꾸미지않고 삶으로받아들여 승화되는느낌? 탑가수인데도 태연은 겸손해서 이사람이 말하면 뭐가 이유가있겠지,,하는느낌이 있음
저랑 똑같으시네요 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 꾸미지않고 승화되는 느낌!!!
This song was literally playing on my dream last night
The lyrics had me bawling, thank you for singing queen😭
Taeyeon, she's the only one that could make such a sad song sound soothing and comforting...it hurts in the most beautiful way ever❤️
Like To X 🤌
Amen
agreee
😭😭wah, true
This is not a sad song. Its very uplifting
Taeyeon never fails to amaze me, this song is just to soulful 😭 The lyrics, the rythm, the music, the voice, the music video, the way all sorts of art combining in one piece of song? and the way Taeyeon is still making her name competing in 4 different gen? Mother Taeyeon indeed 🥺
It’s such a hard song but Taeyeon ate so smooth
태연이 이걸 타이틀로 밀어줘서 너무 좋음ㅜㅠ 이게 진짜 확신의 타이틀이지ㅠㅠ
진심..ㅜㅜ감사할따름입니다..
My first thought after listening to this song is I’ve found my inner peace to embrace the younger self. Sometimes our life was at the lowest point and unexpected things happened without planning.
Last year was my lowest point. I need to go back and forth, go to a different city just to be the caretaker of my mom and my sister. At the same time, I also have my own struggle that I need to complete my thesis of a master's degree. It was tiring, stressed, and my shoulder had so much pressure on it. I can relate the scene on the bus, I often self-doubting myself. And now, the moment has been passed.
On the other hand, I need to write a letter for myself, thanking myself that I didn’t give up. Thank you Taeyeon, your song is a genuine masterpiece! ❤
You deserve a pat and a hug. Virtual hugs and your mom and sister are proud of you!
Taeyeon is literally a queen of kpop indeed including the entire snsd❤❤❤
My biggest support to SM by denouncing the dangerous brainless people who are dedicated to defaming and insulting Taeyeon on social media. Taeyeon is not only one of the best singers in the world but she is also a wonderful person full of kindness and beauty. ❤❤❤❤
TAEYEON & GIRLS GENERATION really deserve to be in Coachella 2025
Many today’s generation denied that girls generation as a whole is the real blueprint of today’s girl group!! Whoever hear their girl group name will instantly remembered who are the members are 😅
Every member of SNSD is successful in their paths that they chosen!! E.g Taeyeon is and still the current vocal king 😅😅
You leave the same comment to every group, maybe thinking that's a compliment, but it is demeaning. If you like the groups, don't wish them bad things.
She doesn't even need to bw famous as Beyonce or Taylor. Ppl we'll see her performance and will fall in love with her voice. Also her music like this album, INVU and Purpose are for western taste more I believe. They'll love it
Tayeon is one of the best singers in the world
I thought it was lalisa?
@@kaikai0785lalisa can sing as well as a dead person 😂
Not me crying again and again. I hope my future self is happy 😢
Thank you taeyeon for this comforting song
watched the recording behind, she's really the best vocalist of our generation!
쇼츠랑 챌린지 양산형 노래가 주로 나오는 요즘 이렇게 진심을 전하는 곡이라니 ㅠㅠ 넘 좋다
This feels like the song “I” went through adulting 😅 I think this album will be my second favorite next to “My voice”
"my head my head my head my head" part is so addictiveee
I love the part so much ❤
노래 진짜 좋은데... 특히 뒤에 깔리는 음악? 그 비트가 너무 좋음
이렇게 좋은 노래를 두고 왜 홍보를 안 해 주는 거지
Please chart well😫This song deserves a PAK
She should win an award for that song she also served vocals omg
Why do people sleep on thus masterpiece? This MV deserved more views!
Music is simply for enjoyment, not just for achievement 🎧
I love this whole concept, from the music, the message, the way it was shot and directed. There's a reason why Taeyeon is still going strong after 18 years. What a delight.
I의 연장선 같음ㅠㅠ 가사도 뮤비 내용도 감동적임.. 저 버스가 무얼 의미할까 생각을 해봤는데 인생을 버스에 빗댄걸까 싶고. 함께 버스에 탄 사람들은 인생이란 노선을 돌면서 만난 인연, 추억, 깨달음 같은 각각의 경험치라고 생각함.. 솔로 데뷔 10주년을 앞두고 하나의 노선을 다 돌아 종점이자 집인 곳에서 이 노래를 수기처럼 들랴주는 거 같음.. 노래 오래오래 불러주세요 태연웅니..💗
Taeyeon always heals me with her voice this song deserves a soty
GOOSEBUMPSSS! LITERALLY HAD GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME THE HOOK "MY HEAD MY HEAD" IS PLAYED!
Also the MV with all those characters representing the "many voices in our heads".. whew genius.
AND ROCKER TAEYEON ALWAYS SLAYSSS!
this song feels soo sad yet hopeful i think this song conveys that filling up and replacing you traumatic past with hope and beautiful memories is what loving yourself is ...........wow! amazing lyrics
태연이 지금 스스로를 잃지 말자고 목이 터져라 노래하고 있잖아.. 눈물 줄줄 흘리게 됨
The real Kpop queen.
I’ve been your fan since 2013, and 11 years later, I’m still here, supporting you and admiring your work. You’ve never disappointed me. Over the years, I’ve seen how talented and dedicated you are, and you’ve always been the best singer in my heart.
If I could tell you one thing, it’s that you’ve done such a great job in everything you do. I’m just a fan, but I’ll always support you for the rest of my life. I’ve never regretted knowing you. It started by chance when I saw your name on RUclips, but now I’m truly determined to be your fan forever.
I’ve been your fan for so long that, lately, looking at you feels like home. It might not seem like something grand, but to me, it means so much. Listening to your music has been a part of an entire stage of my life, and that makes you truly special.
Even if I live to be old and forgetful, I believe the memories I have of you will be hard to fade. I love you! King Taeyeon💜👑
You wrote a letter to yourself, so here’s my letter to you.
Dear Korean fans, please spread the songs to your friends and family, I think it deserves more love especially from the locals.
the song aint that good, sorry. All the songs since INVU have been boring and lazy.
@@iwillsleepwithyourman94 that is your personal preference, you are free to think whichever you want. But this is definitely not lazy, if you were really following her solo music journey. I dont mean knowing her songs, but also know the story of her choices in her previous work.
@@WenHaoLee-b1z zip it
This was an open door into healing into letting go of all the past and hurt. I've written numerous letters to myself and to others for closure and healing and it's so liberating and it really helps me free myself from baggage I should no longer carry on and this song really spoke volumes to myself. Thank you Queen Taeyeon for your art ♡
Taeyeon deserves more love, support and recognition, she is trully an amazing artist and she has this special way of making each song memorable
I hope she feels better soon and no we wont hate you nor leave you we love you Taeyeon .
everything about this release is a masterpiece i’m not even joking - i’m talking about the mv, the sound clips, every song on the ep
taeyeon voice neverrr dissapointedd
+1
so sad, i wanna cry listening to this. Taeyeon really a great artist
태연언니 정말 노래해줘서 고마워요... 수록된 곡들 모두 들으니 행복을 넘은 수많은 감정들이 물밀듯이 밀려와요 저의 하루하루는 언니 노래들로 가득찰 거예요 감사합니다
뭔가가 봉인해제된 느낌. 이젠 스엠은 태연에게 완전하게 자율권을 넘긴 것 같다고 ㅋ 거침없이 고고하는~
this woman changed my life
I think an English version of this is a perfect song to expose taeyeon to other people. This sound is so beyond kpop for some reason I can’t yet explain but i can think of a lot of people that would like this but are not just aware of it because they’re not in the kpop sphere.
Agreed!
@@ran2123 I think English version is unnecessary. If the global folks should get a taste of Kpop music, let them taste it in its authentic way; with majority Korean lyrics. Kpop songs typically already have some English words and phrases in them anyway, which is enough. I've seen cases where Kpop idols/companies are so desperate to make English versions of their hit songs or even produce the original version entirely in English, and it only made it sound weird and off, it doesn't have the typical Kpop allure to it anymore. Plus, it's feeding into the old, racist narrative that "English songs are superior" and "A song has to be in English to reach global listeners", which is so false, backwards and discriminative. I think the mindset should be "Let's make Kpop music mainstream to the global public" instead of "Let's slowly erase the K from Kpop so that it becomes mainstream to the global public".
@@bulanayu9529 Outside of social media, i only know a few handful of people who actively listens to kpop. How many people do you know who actively listens to kpop?
@@ran2123 I know a whole lot of people in real life who listen to Kpop, either a full stan of a few groups & soloist or just a general listener. Even when I'm just passing by in public places, I keep seeing countless strangers humming Kpop songs or having Kpop idols' merches attached on their bags, purses, phone cases and other stuffs.
킹태연 오셨다… 진심 전곡이 명곡… 태연 앨범은 언제나 믿고 전곡 재생하는데 이번 앨범은 또 새로운 느낌이어서 듣자마자 감동함… 장르가 태연… 수록곡까지 다들 들어보셔요… 후회 안 합니다…
Taeyeon, the artist who never stops growing and delivering masterpieces with every release! Whenever she drops a new song, it feels like the music world is blessed with the beauty of her voice and the deep emotions she pours into her craft.
No matter the genre, she has this magical ability to make listeners feel every word and every note.
This new song is bound to be another hit! Wishing for skyrocketing views, top charts on every platform, and a melody that everyone can't help but sing along to. Taeyeon, fighting! We’ll always be here to support you!
SERVING BOTH VISUALS AND VOCALS. ONLY KING TAEYEON
SM please promote this song
kim taeyeon’s vocals are everything
You never changed... That's what makes you you, your younger self's eyes looking up at you, while you cry your heart out. So hug yourself once so that you know how you love that little girl
태연 픽이라는데 요즘 계절에 너무 잘 어울리고 뭔가 벅차오르는 느낀이 드네요..ㅠ 태연사랑해...ㅠ
헤븐도 태연 픽으로 아는데?
@@frozen_arisu그런말 한적 없어용~
@@frozen_arisu heaven 이 아니라 invu
헤븐ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I dunno if it's just me but everytime Taeyeon make music like this it worth to max the volume while on headphone.
Taeyeon's voice is truly a national treasure.
