Cloud USA isn’t being professional right now. We are screaming…

[ *ETA: Brilliantly done.  In fact, if not for the strong rock and classical components that come into the later portion of Love Song (and remind you of Guns N’ Roses’ November Rain), I would say this entire mini-album is straight R&B without a trace of Kpop.  Listen to the percussion and the incidentals.  It’s like Rain is calling the Hip Hop world out with a “Heyyyyy!  Check it!” 🙂  ]

…with utter joy, having just listened to the Love Song English version (everything is finally released!).  And now it’s time to experience Hip Song as well.  We have been dying to hear it, not to mention waiting with baited breath to see Rain’s Hip Song choreography.  When our B2TB album arrives in the mail, we’re having a party.

Track list:
1. Love Song
2. Hip Song
3. One
4. 똑같아 / Same
5. Love Song (English Version)

(source: allkpop, courtesy of kaboomzaYO.  Bear in mind that though this is an English version, it is an English version designed for Asia, which to me is why the translation is straight Korean-to-English, rather than Americanized.  Exp: “I no longer have your breath here with me” vs. “Your essence [or presence] has faded from around me.”  Frankly, I’m surprised he did that… and I’m not quite sure what to think.)

    • I have to agree with you about Love Song, busy bee. I’m really, really hooked on Love Song in Hangeul already so much that I can’t stop singing it…! Oh, Rain’s voice!

      And honestly, I’d like the English version a lot better if it were Americanized. The direct Korean-to-English sounds odd to me because we don’t talk like that. I was expecting something more along the lines of Love STORY’s English version (that Double Dragon produced in the past). Now THAT was American-smooth.

      • Same, I love the eng ver but i got hooked on love song in Hangeul, he just seems to have much more emotion and pure passion in his voice and i can’t stop singing it.

        i like the direct korean to english but do still favour the Americanized eng. Some people seem to be struggling to understand exactly what he is saying which i can understand.
        Rain speaking/singing english is pure heaven either way for me hehe.
