The composer for ZE:A‘s “Phoenix“, Albi Albertsson, released his demo version for the song.

The vocal guide for the demo version is in English instead of ZE:A’s Korean, and the title ‘V2 Original Demo’ seems to hint that this was the song while in its beginning stages. One of the most noticeable parts of the song is that near the beginning, around the 0:13 mark, the vocal guide seems to say, ‘SHINee. We’re back‘, hinting that the song might have been originally meant for SHINee. In ZE:A’s song, at the same point they instead say, “ZE:A. We’re back“.

looking through the comments, people thought this song suited ZE:A more. What do YOU think omona? ZE:A or Shinee? sound off in the comments below VVVVVVVVVVVV

I think it suits ZE:A better. And sad SHINee passed on it as they could've put out at least one good song this year oh well.

it's too boring and the instrumental is so cheesy. it's not a bad song but they've done better.

doesn't sound like a shinee song imho. it's very filler-like.

Shinee is to good for this song.

Meh, this song is super boring. But I feel like SHINee's vocals are more powerful than ZE:A's, so perhaps if they had sung this song instead, it would've caught my attention.

I can totally see Jjong pulling some "Juliette" era vocals in the first verse though...

Well I already kind of liked that song, I just find ZE:A... really awkward. So I probably would have also liked it if SHINee had done it, except probably more because I like them more. xD

But mostly I will never get over listening to the demo songs in English. They just throw me for a loop.

The reason this song is not for Shinee is because Shinee can actually sing & doesn't need all this extra shit going on in the vocals. It's a fun daft punkish song though.

Thank you! I don't get why Omona thinks they can't sing. SE is just shitty at promoting them like they are with their other groups.

srsly. I feel bad for Nine Muses (and Jewelry b/c imo their mini was one of the best of the year but it didn't really go anywhere and their follow-up being pushed back was nagl) but hopefully their upcoming comeback will be handled better than usual. And yeah ZE:A sing as well as any other boy band.

It was pushed back for ZE:A to put out "Beautiful Lady" or w/e. SE deciding for Jewelry to have a follow-up already pushed back Nine Muses' comeback anyway.

Jewelry's mini is my favorite of the year. I've listened to a few minis but I might re arrange the songs after a listen through (like poison) or only listen to certain songs on others but theirs was one I listen to, untouched, at least twice a week.

This song suits ZEA better and they did a good job with it. I can't see Shinee doing this song. (Really got to get use to this phone)

I think "Never End" is good too. It's the only ze:a song I listen to other than "Phoenix"

Their entire Spectacular album is really good. Aftermath, S.A.D, Dirty Cat, Never End, Coy Girl...it's a pretty solid album.

I'd still recommend Never End and S.A.D. S.A.D. is possibly the best non-single of last year. You might like them more. :)

I can understand why you wouldn't like Aftermath, it took a good few listens for me to get used to it. But those two songs are very different from Aftermath, and you might like them more.

i love this song, and i think ze:a did just fine with their version
i can sort of see shinee singing this, but imo it's not typical shinee fare in that it's not some interesting mixmash like most of their title songs are. the only part that i can really see shinee doing is the rap

ZE:A needed this song after the shit was before that, bless them getting it
but single wise it's much more a ze:a song
i could see it being a song on SHINee's album tho ngl
lol@the people who think ze:a can't sing

After listening to the demo... shit damn I love ZE:A's version even more.
Tbh, Shinee could have pulled it off but I never would have paid attention to it.

I liked the Phoenix song. It's one of the few ZE:A songs I actually like. I could see Shinee singing it.

Dongjun's voice is grating enough why would I want to hear Jonghyun singing this.

Ze:a has good singers, shame their vocals aren't showcased more. Especially Kevin.

The more I listen to this, the more I can maybe imagine SHINee singing the chorus, but ZE:A didn't do a bad job so it all turned all right in the end.

I think the demo version is the best ;). He should totally debut.

He worked with EXO too, so no surprise if this was originally meant for Shinee. I think most boy groups could pull this off.

I like it better in Korean? I think it fit ZE:A really well and it's a really catchy song. I don't know if I would quite like Jonghyun's voice in this song, so in the end, I'm glad it went to ZE:A.

I'm glad ZE:A has this song because they literally have 3 good songs... and this song, at least for me, pulled them out of the ashes (ho ho ho) from which they were previously lying. This sound is also more ZE:A-esque. HOWEVER, I would not mind seeing/hearing SHINee attempt this... the choreo would be awesomely executed, no doubt.

Love the song. And I think it works so much more for ZE:A than it could for SHINee. It's more their style, I think? (And ZE:A's voices have come so far since debut. Star Empire is just a t r o c i o u s at promoting their groups. ZE:A promos for k-fans are almost nonexistent jfc).

Also OP, LOVING your icon. Baby Dincht!
