Korean  : 오늘이 지나면 난 사라질 먼지 사랑이 뭔지 나 슬퍼보인다면 내 눈물은 연기 춤추는 연기처럼 내일이면 또 아무렇지 않게 하루가 시작돼 널 잊고 살겠죠 그저 니가 행복해지길 나는 이곳에서 남아서 웃으며 빌어줄게

Translation : After today is gone, I’m dust that will disappear. What is love? If I look so sad, my tears are acting like dancing smoke. Tomorrow, will start a day, pretending as if nothing happened. I live like, I already forgot you. I just want you to be happy. I stay and pray for you with a smile.

[NEWS] K-Pop royalty Big Bang releases ‘Blue’

K-Pop royalty Big Bang solidifies their "K-Pop blue blood" status with their latest release titled "Blue."

Known for their hard-hitting hip-hop electronica hits like "Tonight" and "Love Song," G-Dragon, Taeyang, T.O.P., Daesung, and Seungri returns with their newest mini album titled "Alive" with "Blue" as the first track off the mini-album. "Alive," Big Bang's fifth EP consists of seven new songs and is set for release on February 29, 2012.

Given their K-Pop royalty status, "Blue" immediately topped various music portal sites including Melon, Bugs, Naver, M.net, Soribada, and many others upon its release. Boasting of a new "icy-cool" look, Big Bang is again taking the K-Pop world by storm.

"Blue" is a slow-tempo track with subtle electronica influences characteristic of Big Bang. As the title suggests, "Blue" is an emotional song about longing and heartbreak. The music video was shot with simple background, reminiscent of early Big Bang music videos such as "Lies" and "Haru Haru." Compared to their previous MV, a Caucasian model can be seen in the new video. Fans may also be a bit surprised for the choice of a soft-tempo release which is not typical of Big Bang but this is a a sign of the artistic and personal growth of the group. "Blue" was written by G-Dragon with Teddy, the resident producer of YG Entertainment.
