Last December 24, 2010 GD&TOP released an album for their duo unit.
The songs in the album are written and produced by GD&TOP themselves with also the help of Teddy, Kush (a.k.a E. Knock). So knowing GD wrote some songs himself means it also shows his personal feelings (he once said in an interview that the lyrics of his songs are actually from his own experiences)
So, shall we analyze the English translations of the songs GD wrote himself? :)
First off is the song where Bom was SUPPOSED to be featured at first.
Chorus:
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
Sweetheart
TOP:
A-Yo Turn It Up I hate this awkward atmosphere
Was the clock's needle always this loud?
I only hear the sound of saliva going down my throat. What should I say?
Look baby, I only want to greet the morning with you
Before this night passes, our own secret party
But you like Cinderella want to go home when the clock hits 12
Lonely nights are long, callin' up your parents
I act strong but it bothers me, S.O.S there's no progress
Oh wait a second why am I like this? Am I drunk, I'm getting dizzy, I'm falling asleep
Chorus:
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
Sweetheart
GD:
In the smooth sounds of music, an armful of red roses Ooh~
TOP:
You're going home tomorrow anyway, It's late it might be dangerous dear
No there's no other meaning, I'm just worried about you, Yeah what if someone kidnaps you
This long long night night, a party of enchanting stars
Nothing can stop this, This feeling of becoming one, Stop right there
GD:
Hey I can't let you go, I can't be separated from you, don't fight it
Chorus:
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
Sweetheart
TOP:
Baby take my hand, Don't be afraid me, Just stay together
GD&TOP:
It's the first time since I've met you, your family is strict so I'm scared but excited
Phone on vibrate, a bad sign, Bell goes ding dong, a signal to escape bingo
I need to give her assurance, so I can convince her with a believable excuse
The prettiest fiance in the world, with you on that green field
I'm usually wild, but I'm soft. I can't say anything I can't take responsibility for
Girl you know what I mean, it's hard to explain this, but these are needless words
Dim the lights, our eyes meet
And slightly open those tightly shut buttons, mouth dries, and lock the door
Chorus:
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
Sweetheart
Bridge:
Ah~ ah~ in this night where everyone has fallen asleep, I hate being alone
Ah~ ooh~ ah~ hiding in that moonlight, I whisper sweet nothings

Something like that, and we all know that GD is really Bom's number#1 fanboy.
The awkwardness? Prolly he's being shy with how to say how he feels after all his teasing and being so playful around Park Bom. :)
I believe the "secret party" was referring to their secret meet ups and ofcourse just like Cinderella, Bom wouldn't be able to stay too long iwth him or else they'll be caught! He's been longing for an alone time with Bom, but then he can't do anything so he just acts as if he can handle it. (I hope I'm making sense here T_T)
Red roses = Romance
Expressing his love for her and assuring her of not letting her go (aww so sweet)
The green fields..
Ofcourse they're allowed already since Bom is already in the right age and GD is matured enough to!
Am I making sense here? Lol
I don't think I have to explain this anymore.
If you have an Addicted heart, you'd get it already.
Let's now move on to the song where Bom is now featured in.
Track#03 Oh Yeah
[TOP] Oh Yeah Oh Oh Yeah T.O.P
[GD] Oh Yeah Oh Oh Yeah G.D
[TOP] Oh Yeah Oh Oh Yeah
[GD] Oh Yeah Oh Oh Yeah
[GD]
Love is falling, if I say one word, you're drawn into me
Like I've seen a ghost, when I see you I'm drawn into you
I hate to hint at it but already, you rock my world
You've hit the bulls-eye of my heart, the answer is always oh yes girl
[TOP]
That word that I've been holding back till now, our skin's almost touching
I'll never disappoint you girl I promise
You and I are alike, we have a different soul than others
Let's carry this boring world on our backs and let's rock and roll
[BOM]
Mm On the nights when those stars are shining like tonight
Lady luck is calling us
Shout for me in a beautiful voice like this

Oh oh oh na na na oh yeah ([GD/TOP] Oh yea) oh yeah ([GD/TOP] Yeah yeah yeah)
[TOP]
From your style to your smile, every part of you is good
We're slowly falling for each other
My emptied out cup, with your scent, fill it up
[GD]
Your and my flaming kitchen, feels just like I'm being set on fire
Like bubble gum, my heart's swelling up I'm just celebrating
I-I-I-I-I-I like it babe
You you you you come be my lady

The lyrics of this song was written by GD, TOP, and Teddy.
Ofcourse, they're both alike! That's why GD understands Bom's 8D personality because they're like living on their own world together.
The word "lady" is used. This is how GD addresses Bom even since 2006 - ma lady Park Bom yang (yang=miss)
And this part reminds me of something again..
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
Sweetheart
TOP:
Baby take my hand, Don't be afraid me, Just stay together
GD&TOP:
It's the first time since I've met you, your family is strict so I'm scared but excited
Phone on vibrate, a bad sign, Bell goes ding dong, a signal to escape bingo

This lyrics of this song was written by GD alone. :)
So let's start off with the first stanza which was sangrapped by TOP.
A-Yo Turn It Up I hate this awkward atmosphere
Was the clock's needle always this loud?
I only hear the sound of saliva going down my throat. What should I say?
Look baby, I only want to greet the morning with youIn GD's songs before he always mentions "Greeting me good morning with your beautiful voice"
Something like that, and we all know that GD is really Bom's number#1 fanboy.
The awkwardness? Prolly he's being shy with how to say how he feels after all his teasing and being so playful around Park Bom. :)
Before this night passes, our own secret party
But you like Cinderella want to go home when the clock hits 12
Lonely nights are long, callin' up your parents
I act strong but it bothers me, S.O.S there's no progress
Oh wait a second why am I like this? Am I drunk, I'm getting dizzy, I'm falling asleepHe used the word "secret" cos you know, Bom ain't allowed yet to have a boyfriend since she's under the 3-year No Boyfriend Contract with YG that's why she and GD should have things kept as a secret first.
I believe the "secret party" was referring to their secret meet ups and ofcourse just like Cinderella, Bom wouldn't be able to stay too long iwth him or else they'll be caught! He's been longing for an alone time with Bom, but then he can't do anything so he just acts as if he can handle it. (I hope I'm making sense here T_T)
In the smooth sounds of music, an armful of red roses Ooh~Music is what makes them one since they're both singers and they're very passionate about it.
Red roses = Romance
You're going home tomorrow anyway, It's late it might be dangerous dear
No there's no other meaning, I'm just worried about you, Yeah what if someone kidnaps you
This long long night night, a party of enchanting stars
Nothing can stop this, This feeling of becoming one, Stop right there
In this part, GD expresses his intimate feelings. He doesn't want to send her home yet cos it's already too late in the evening but actually he just wanna spend longer time with her and.. become one :>
Hey I can't let you go, I can't be separated from you, don't fight itThis line reminds me of Bom's narration in You and I "Whatever happens, even when the sky is falling down. I promise you, THAT I'LL NEVER LET YOU GO." So do I still have to explain it? :D
Baby take my hand, Don't be afraid me, Just stay togetherAnd again, this reminds me of the Butterfly and You and I MV where the holding hands part were both emphasized. And ofcourse, also during their Oh Yeah performances where GD and Bom always hold hands tightly like they don't wanna let go anymore <3
It's the first time since I've met you, your family is strict so I'm scared but excited
Phone on vibrate, a bad sign, Bell goes ding dong, a signal to escape bingo
I need to give her assurance, so I can convince her with a believable excuseMeeting the parents? Since GD and Bom have known each for such a long time already ofcourse, they've met each others parents already!! So maybe this was how he felt then?? :D
The prettiest fiance in the world, with you on that green field
I'm usually wild, but I'm soft. I can't say anything I can't take responsibility for
Girl you know what I mean, it's hard to explain this, but these are needless wordsHim being careful with Bom since she is fragile and very cute.
Expressing his love for her and assuring her of not letting her go (aww so sweet)
The green fields..
Dim the lights, our eyes meet
And slightly open those tightly shut buttons, mouth dries, and lock the doorIntimate love <3
Ofcourse they're allowed already since Bom is already in the right age and GD is matured enough to!
Am I making sense here? Lol
Don't go home baby~ I have a present here for you
Don't go home today baby ye~ To be honest I'm not used to it either
SweetheartAnd the part which Bom was supposed to sing.. <3
I don't think I have to explain this anymore.
If you have an Addicted heart, you'd get it already.
Let's now move on to the song where Bom is now featured in.

The lyrics of this song was written by GD, TOP, and Teddy.
Love is falling, if I say one word, you're drawn into me
Like I've seen a ghost, when I see you I'm drawn into you
I hate to hint at it but already, you rock my world
You've hit the bulls-eye of my heart, the answer is always oh yes girl
Well, this is actually tells us how GD is addicted to Bom.
That he is definitely in love and he can't hide it how she rocks his world.
That word that I've been holding back till now, our skin's almost touching
I'll never disappoint you girl I promise
You and I are alike, we have a different soul than others
Let's carry this boring world on our backs and let's rock and rollThe word he's been holding back? His feelings?
Ofcourse, they're both alike! That's why GD understands Bom's 8D personality because they're like living on their own world together.
Mm On the nights when those stars are shining like tonight
Lady luck is calling us
Shout for me in a beautiful voice like this
(like) this (like) thisAnd again, GD been amazed by Bom's Goddess-like voice.
The word "lady" is used. This is how GD addresses Bom even since 2006 - ma lady Park Bom yang (yang=miss)
And this part reminds me of something again..
My eyes are filled with shining stars
Even the light burning in my heart
Won't be forever, there's nothing to lose
Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh yeahBom's part in Fire!! The connection is obvious so don't be oblivious~ :P
i think you should analyzed GD's song "akmong(obsession)" too
ReplyDelete:)
^Agreed! I myself have found several distinctive meanings in "Obsession" or rather "Addiction" ;) It's my favorite song in the album!
ReplyDelete"It's the first time since I've met you, your family is strict so I'm scared but excited"
ReplyDelete-In this part, GD mentions how the person's family is very strict. From what I read, Park Bom's family was against the idea of her becoming an idol. They wanted a more serious career choice for her. Seems to me like a very typical Asian family :D
Yes! I'm working on it, that's why it says "Part 1" :D
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for adding that! Never thought of that! Yea, I remember that Bom had to run away just to achieve her dreams :D
