Versión única de Y si fuera ella (vídeo) https://t.co/naXszat16N
— Alejandro Sanz (@AlejandroSanz) October 11, 2015
Jonghyun has been years singing 'Hyeya' on shows. Now Alejandro,original author of 'Y si fuera ella' (song that inspired Hyeya lyrics and music) is tweeting about this "unique version" .... video is getting positive reactions from Sanz's fans
Here you can listen original song in spanish by Alejandro Sanz:
Also a while ago in Lee sung soo ,part of production team that recorded Hyeya with Jonghyun back in 2008 , talked about lyrics and recording process:
Kim eana: Finally, i’d like to hear about your proudest a&r work.
Lee sung soo: when i was in charge of shinee, a song i really liked at that time was alejandro sanz’s “y si fuera ella”, and i thought it would be really amazing if shinee’s jonghyun could sing that song. that song was reborn as “혜야 (hyeya)”. the process was really difficult but, personally, i’m really proud of and satisified with the work.
Kim eana: that’s the very song that first got me int shinee! so, you were behind the birth of that song?
Lee sung soo: No. that song was created entirely by the songwriter kenzie - who arranged it, wrote the lyrics and directed it -, and jonghyun, who sang it. i’m not saying that to be modest; it’s the truth. we spent a five whole days just on recording it, and i can’t describe how hard it was to try to bring out the nuance of the original song’s language (spanish) as much as possible. jonghyun was on the verge of total exhaustion and kenzie suffered a lot through it too. but chairman lee soo man was very pleased with the outcome and decided, “this needs to get broadcast.” he judged that the image of jonghyun singing the song would be helpful in securing shinee’s position at the time.
Kim eana: Those are the moments when a&r truely shines. when you create chemistry between artists!
(Taken from kim eana’s book, “kim eana’s songwriting method”. kim eana is a lyricist who is most famous for her work with brown eyed girls and iu. she also wrote the lyrics to shinee’s “hello.”)

And he compared the right of kids with AIDS in Africa to get medication to the rights of authors. I don't know what was his point.
His relationships doesn't help. I'm pretty sure he cheated to her previous wife and even had a son with the other woman. That he has son with the other woman is a fact, what is kind of confusing if he started the relationship with the other woman while he was married (both women say that it was).

Date: 2015-10-11 11:35 pm (UTC)its confusing somehow, because meanwhile the official title is 혜야 (hyeya) which i think is a korean female name
헤야 (heya) would be more accurate to sound like original song in spanish .... the last part on title "y si fuera ella" and that word alejandro repeats the most during whole song is "ella" (she) ..... kenzie is really a genius lol

Date: 2015-10-11 11:41 pm (UTC)Jonghyun's version made me actually appreciate "Y si fuera ella". And I actually prefer Hyeya because Jonghyun >>>>> Alejandro as a singer.

Date: 2015-10-12 12:25 am (UTC)Totally agree. Alex's fans obviously say the opposite but objectively speaking Jonghyun's vocal technique/power is MILES ahead of Alejandro's.

Date: 2015-10-12 05:35 am (UTC)It's funny to see how the Spanish omonians don't like Alejandro at all xD In Portugal he's so popular and we love him to bits (well, we pretty much love 99% of the most known Spanish singers out there)But i guess that goes for me when it comes to Portuguese singers, I can't even listen to them. I still know all his songs by heart!!
