This time it's a pop song from 1982, older than the last one. The title is literally that. Africa. Even though the band that sang it is unfamiliar, it's a masterpiece that's definitely played on pop radio stations sometimes and even hit #1 on the Billboard charts. You might have heard this one somewhere too? (Especially, please listen to the chorus part of the refrain...) It's a bit of a funny story, but the songwriter of this song said it was made with the thought of wanting to escape into nature. So, even though the song's lyrics seem to be about actually visiting Africa and reminiscing about it, the songwriter himself has apparently never been to Africa...;

This song makes you reflect on how the small choices we make, especially when health and safety guidelines feel so important, can have a huge impact and responsibility on someone else! The song tells the story of a female protagonist who was under COVID-19 quarantine. Unable to bear the confinement, she went out and ended up spreading the virus to the male protagonist, ultimately leading to his death😢 Faced with the tragic outcome, she is consumed by guilt and despair, eventually making a drastic choice... It's a cruel and bitter narrativeㅠㅠ If you follow this link and check the comments, someone wrote a novel based on this song, and it's absolutely amazing🫨 Definitely give it a read after listening to the song!! "It would be fine if I just didn't meet anyone" "Just for today, I'll go beyond the hamster wheel, deeply pierced into the unseen" "Now I'm falling, searching for my conscience"

I'm posting this because I thought of my father after the Chuseok holiday. As the title suggests, it's a song hoping to dance with my father one more time. The absence of a father brings a different kind of weight compared to that of a mother. The sadness is profound. That's why movies about paternal love are so heartbreaking ㅜ Luther Vandross is a singer's singer. I think he might have been the best singer on Earth, male or female. He's famously known as Park Hyo-shin's role model. Sadly, he has passed away. Even just listening to the melody is sad, but I recommend pondering the lyrics.

This song is 'Cheat Code' from NCT WISH! I really love the synthesizer and the retro game beat. The lyrics compare love to an adventure of a game character, and in the latter half, it shifts to an NPC's perspective within the game, adding an interesting new development! The part where Jaehee sings 'tell me~' in the latter half is truly amazing👍

It used to be my go-to song. I miss those days. The song is great and the lyrics are poetic. I recommend it.

As the weather gets cooler, I wanted to listen to 'Autumn Greeting', so I brought it here. I wanted to share it with you all. Monday Kiz songs, well... You can trust them, right? Autumn is already somewhat lonely, but if you add a breakup, how much more so.. 😭 Hah.. I feel like I can remember the temperature of that day.. the wind.. the smell of the air... Suddenly, my emotions... ㅠㅠ

Seo Ji-won's 'Gather My Tears' is a ballad released in 1996, capturing the feeling of not being able to forget someone after a breakup and waiting for their return. The gentle piano melody and Seo Ji-won's sorrowful voice blend together, evoking a unique sense of loneliness and heaviness when you listen to it. Although it's an old song, it's still loved by many. In 2015, Ulala Session remade it as an OST for the drama 'Persevere, Goo Hae-ra,' and in 2020, Wheein reinterpreted it as an OST for 'Hospital Playlist,' giving it a new feel. Furthermore, in the 2023 Netflix drama 'A Time Called You,' Seo Ji-won's original song was used as a crucial theme song connecting time travel, bringing it to the attention of many once again. Despite being an old song, the emotions are still conveyed perfectly when listening to it today, making it a song that pairs especially well with listening alone on a quiet night.

As the title suggests, this song, 'Wind of Change,' was inspired by a visit to Moscow in '89. Years later, in '92, it was performed live during the reunification of their home country, Germany, and is reportedly considered Germany's unofficial national anthem.

This is Liar, a ballad released in 2000 by S#arp, a group active from the late 1990s to the early 2000s, known for their many dance hits. While S#arp is typically recognized for their dance tracks like 'Tell me Tell me,' 'Sweety,' and '잘됐어' (Jal Dwaesseo), they also released quite a few ballads, some of which are quite famous, like 'My Lips... Like Warm Coffee.' Though the group disbanded on a somewhat unfortunate note, their songs remain memorable. This particular song, 'Liar,' truly lives up to the 'hidden gem' title, with Lee Ji-hye's vocals conveying a deep sense of emotion. I really wanted to say this... Even after all this time, I won't be able to forget you.... You probably won't believe it.... Since I was the one who let you go.... Without even shedding a tear.... I wanted to hide my own sorrow.... Afraid of being a burden on your final journey.... But perhaps, just a little, I hoped.... You'd notice my trembling shoulders....
