This wasn't the first time I stayed up late to wait for a release of my fave band. May it be a new song or an MV.
Tonight~ (well that was their previous single) at exactly 12:00 AM, February 22, 2012; Big Bang released their first single from their highly anticipated album, the first title track is "Blue" after almost an hour (and after Strong Heart) they released the music video.
To be honest, I was expecting a fast track and I was surprised at how the track turn up. You could feel the sincerity in the lyrics and especially the melody. The melody did have this gloomy, somber, sincere, emotional, wintery feel (which I like!). It seems like confessing your deepest secret to everyone, not afraid of what the world thinks.
The trending topic #BIGBANGBLUE even reached number 1 worldwide!
Seungri started with this gloomy melodic feel. Baby Ri did mature in this song..I love his voice here. GD, started out his rap (amazing as always), and Daesung...of course, I have always loved Dae's voice ever since and this song has all the right emotions. Taeyang's voice is amazing as always. TOP did a sing-rap theme, and it was awesome. Mixed together and you get this wonderful concoction of a song: BLUE.
Jiyong did a wonderful job with this song, as always, mixing in everyone's personalities made it even more perfect.
Here is the english translation of the lyrics:
*The winter had passed
And the spring has come
We have withered
And our hearts are bruised from longing
**(I’m singing my blues)
Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow
(I’m singing my blues)
The love that I have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh
Under the same sky, at different places
Because you and I are dangerous
I am leaving you
One letter difference from ‘nim’^
It’s cowardly but I’m hiding because I’m not good enough
Cruel breakup is like the end of the road of love
No words can comfort me
Perhaps my lifetime’s last melodrama
Now its final curtain is coming down
I was born and I met you
And I have loved you to death
My cold heart that has been dyed blue
Even with my eyes closed, I can’t feel you
*Repeat
**Repeat
I feel like my heart has stopped beating
You and I, frozen there, after a war
Trauma, that has been carved in my head
Once these tears dry up, I will moistly remember my love
I’m neither painful nor lonely
Happiness is all self-talk
I can’t stand something more complicated
It’s no big deal, I don’t care
Inevitable wandering, people come and go
I was born and I met you
And I have loved you to death
My cold heart that has been dyed blue
Even if you have left, I’m still here
*Repeat
Again tonight, underneath that blue moonlight
I will probably fall asleep alone
Even in my dreams, I look for you
And wander around while singing this song
**Repeat (X2)
And the spring has come
We have withered
And our hearts are bruised from longing
**(I’m singing my blues)
Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow
(I’m singing my blues)
The love that I have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh
Under the same sky, at different places
Because you and I are dangerous
I am leaving you
One letter difference from ‘nim’^
It’s cowardly but I’m hiding because I’m not good enough
Cruel breakup is like the end of the road of love
No words can comfort me
Perhaps my lifetime’s last melodrama
Now its final curtain is coming down
I was born and I met you
And I have loved you to death
My cold heart that has been dyed blue
Even with my eyes closed, I can’t feel you
*Repeat
**Repeat
I feel like my heart has stopped beating
You and I, frozen there, after a war
Trauma, that has been carved in my head
Once these tears dry up, I will moistly remember my love
I’m neither painful nor lonely
Happiness is all self-talk
I can’t stand something more complicated
It’s no big deal, I don’t care
Inevitable wandering, people come and go
I was born and I met you
And I have loved you to death
My cold heart that has been dyed blue
Even if you have left, I’m still here
*Repeat
Again tonight, underneath that blue moonlight
I will probably fall asleep alone
Even in my dreams, I look for you
And wander around while singing this song
**Repeat (X2)

The lyrics were so poetic and wonderful that I'm listening to the song over and over again. Even though the language is foreign, music really does not hold any boundaries.
Here is the music video:
* The only thing I saw was, Jiyong was once again running for his life in this MV. Why Jiyong, do you have such strong stamina? LOL~ Some notable runs? Lies~ Haru-Haru...LOL~
