I always knew this song sounds a lot better in acoustic sans CL's falsettos LOL. Must include this on their next full album. :D

I think the acoustic version sounds even better. But then I'm a sucker for acoustic versions. Also, the pianist looks like Jung Joon Il from Mate.

I don't know this guy, but I guess it's him since it says 2ne1 feat. YongLim, Jeong Joon Il, Yong Shion and Kim Junho =)

How has s3 of 2ne1tv been?

the last episode i watched was all about their pets. 45 minutes all about their pets. not an animal hater but they've been showing stuff I don't really care about -- and i'm sort of a fan D: too much dara too.

This is really beautiful

[dalpaengi.livejournal.com]

the paino part was really awkward, wasn't it? but I like it better than the original.

i like the idea behind this version but they honestly don't sound so good without the mastering with the exception of Bom and the arrangement became such a mess 3 minutes in.

I really love Dara's voice though. It's weak but it has this very sweet and cute tone which is very unique and distinctive.

[es2pido.livejournal.com]

Seriously, she sounded good here. Although I'm not sure if there was some backup on the bridge part but it didn't sound off.

[asteri5k.livejournal.com]

I really didn't like CL's chorus.

[walkingparadoxx.livejournal.com]

I think with the arrangement it has the potential to sound really good in the recording studio. But this performance made me feel like I was watching an amateur band practicing in their garage.

[miharuru.livejournal.com]

They are too off pitch in the beginning and throughout the song which made me cringe too many times, they are supposed to be professional. The chorus simply works really bad when CL changes to her head voice. I think they should practice their singing more before doing acoustic versions because these tell right away if you're a capable singer or not and quite frankly they bit more than they can chew in this.

don't flame me. I'm just being honest here without being mean.

[funkaliciousss.livejournal.com]

you are right though. Bom is the only one who pulled it off. Minzy is almost there, she is so talented!

[mad-nux.livejournal.com]

it scares me everytime i watch Bom sing..idk
i like minzy's voice here and surprisingly dara's too. kinda cringing on cl and bom's

dnw the part where they started shouting

[funkaliciousss.livejournal.com]

ikr i got so irritated at the shouting parts. they probably did it cause CL couldn't reach those notes anymore and they decided to just make it sound 'fun' lol.

[tabi.livejournal.com]

The chorus could have been better... though I have the mindset that acoustic songs should be slow and soothing. Anyway, if they had time to practice more, they probably could have nailed it.

[highondrugsss.livejournal.com]

I love them, but listening to it once is enough. Can never pass the chorus again.

[tees2mai.livejournal.com]

I don't like it

[vanhangels.livejournal.com]

I like it but I really didn't like what CL did to her chorus so I always skip her part. ....sorry CL-roo~~~

[crisketch.livejournal.com]

Minji sounds great! The rest of them... not so :( they should have mellowed down their singing styles a little imo. Also, hay that acoustic guitarist is from Dear Cloud!!

[devilsatin.livejournal.com]

lmao

nothing will make this song good

[xalexandriam.livejournal.com]

lol mte

[uncyn.livejournal.com]

ouch, that was one hot mess. i need to go back and listen to some pastelmusic albums to restore in my mind the definition of acoustic music.

[bubble-monkey9.livejournal.com]

dara sounds tone deaf in the beginning
minzy & bom sound good
wut @ CL's falsetto.. why

[volume1995.livejournal.com]

this > original

just need a studio version
or one from tv like the reggae mix from i dont care

THAT WAS GOOD

[kawaiiairbender.livejournal.com]

not really feeling this, some parts were good but more were bad/unimpressive. :( i need consistency.
I like Minji's voice, she sounded the best.

[ari-meh.livejournal.com]

minji sounded great, girl sounds better with every day that passes! bom was a little shaky but her voice is something special (: and dara was sweet, she improved a lot! cl was pretty bad here, though, the chorus made me cringe.

[jeit91.livejournal.com]

Lol this is terrible. 2ne1 has been disappointing since "I'm the best"

[vizallati.livejournal.com]

Minzy sounds really awesome.

[merylsteep.livejournal.com]

CL did terrible.

[noxiouspanda.livejournal.com]

Your icon lol. He's HILARIOUS.

[cordyceps.livejournal.com]

shit like this makes me realize GIVE MINZY MORE SINGING PARTS
jesus fucking christ she can out-sing and out-dance CL 95% of the time
let her have some lime light. dara's been getting more parts than her lately ffs

[vanhangels.livejournal.com]

not really. Dara only seems like she has more parts but if you listen to the whole mini album, Minzy definitely have more parts.

[5h0rtyy.livejournal.com]

Minzy should have more singing parts, she is flawless! <33 & Bom is perfection like usual.
