Description (Translated):
KARD 1st Single 'Way With Words'KARD makes a surprise comeback with their first single 'Way With Words'.
The single 'Way With Words' to be released this time contains the title song "GUNSHOT" along with three songs with conflicting charms: "AH EE YAH" and "HOLD ON".
The album name 'Way With Words' is an ambiguous expression that literally translates to 'they speak very well'. The message about the power of 'words', which can be positively or negatively received by listeners depending on how the same words are spoken, is expressed in KARD's own style over various genres and sounds.
In particular, member BM, following “Dumb Litty” released in September of last year and “RED MOON” in February, was named not only in the title song “GUNSHOT” of this album, but also in writing lyrics, composing, and arranging all tracklists, proving to be a singer-songwriter. We are strengthening our position. In addition, member J.seph also participated in writing lyrics for all songs to enhance the album's perfection.
As KARD has boasted a wide spectrum of music and diverse charms in each album, music fans around the world are expected to pay attention to the new image they will show through this comeback.
Album Review
01. Aㅣㅑ (AH EE YAH)
Lyrics by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music), J.seph
Composed by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music)
Arranged by Wiidope (617 Music), BM
“Aㅣㅑ (AH EE YAH)” is a bright and lively atmosphere based on reggae, and expresses the fresh feeling of feeling love for each other who were friends, courageously confessing their feelings, and reacting to those sweet words. This song stands out.
02. GUNSHOT
Lyrics by BM, J.seph
Composed by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music)
Arranged by Wiidope (617 Music), BM
'Words' have tremendous power, and depending on how they are spoken, they can shed light on someone's life or, conversely, make someone's life progressively worse. “GUNSHOT” is a song that expresses a profound message about how great the power of words is in KARD’s unique style.
03. HOLD ON
Korean Lyrics by BM, J.seph
Composed by Hayley Aitken, Olof Lindskog, 72
Arranged by OLLIPOP
“HOLD ON” is a song that conveys KARD’s sincere heart that the time has come when they have to leave their side for a while, but no matter how much time passes, their love for each other will remain the same.
Description (Original):
KARD 1st Single ‘Way With Words’KARD가 첫 번째 싱글 ‘Way With Words’를 발표하고 전격 컴백한다.
이번에 공개되는 싱글 ‘Way With Words’는 타이틀 곡 “GUNSHOT”과 더불어, “ㅏㅣㅑ (AH EE YAH)”, “HOLD ON”이라는 상반된 매력을 가진 3곡이 수록되어 있다.
앨범명 ‘Way With Words’는 직역하면 ‘말을 참 잘하네요’라는 의미의 중의적 표현. 똑같은 말도 어떻게 하느냐에 따라 듣는 사람이 긍정적으로, 혹은 부정적으로 받아들일 수 있는 ‘말’이 가진 힘에 대한 메시지를 KARD만의 스타일로 다양한 장르와 사운드 위에 표현했다.
특히 멤버 BM은 지난해 9월 발표한 “Dumb Litty”와 지난 2월 “RED MOON”에 이어, 이번 앨범의 타이틀곡 “GUNSHOT” 뿐만 아니라 모든 트랙리스트 작사, 작곡, 편곡에 이름을 올리며 싱어송라이터의 입지를 더욱 단단히 다져가고 있다. 뿐만 아니라 멤버 J.seph 또한 전곡 작사에 참여하여 앨범의 완성도를 높였다.
매 앨범 폭넓은 음악 스펙트럼과 다채로운 매력을 자랑해온 KARD인 만큼, 이번 컴백을 통해 보여줄 새로운 모습에 전 세계 음악 팬들의 이목이 집중될 전망이다.
Album Review
01. ㅏㅣㅑ (AH EE YAH)
Lyrics by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music), J.seph
Composed by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music)
Arranged by Wiidope (617 Music), BM
“ㅏㅣㅑ (AH EE YAH)”는 레게에 기반을 둔 밝고 발랄한 분위기로, 친구 사이였던 서로에게 사랑이라는 감정을 느끼게 되며 용기 내어 그 마음을 고백하고, 그 달콤한 말에 반응하게 되었다는 풋풋한 감정 표현이 돋보이는 곡이다.
02. GUNSHOT
Lyrics by BM, J.seph
Composed by BM, Kyuwon 'Q' Kim (617 Music)
Arranged by Wiidope (617 Music), BM
'말'에는 엄청난 힘이 있어 어떻게 말을 하느냐에 따라 누군가의 삶에 빛을 밝혀줄 수도 있고, 또 반대로 누군가의 삶을 점점 병들어가게 할 수도 있다. “GUNSHOT”은 말이 가지고 있는 힘이 얼마나 큰지에 대한 심도 있는 메시지를 KARD만의 스타일로 표현한 곡이다.
03. HOLD ON
Korean Lyrics by BM, J.seph
Composed by Hayley Aitken, Olof Lindskog, 72
Arranged by OLLIPOP
“HOLD ON”은 어쩔 수 없이 잠시 곁을 떠나 있어야만 하는 시기가 다가왔지만 아무리 시간이 지나도 서로를 사랑하는 마음은 변함없이 그대로를 지킬 거란 KARD의 진심 어린 마음을 전하는 곡이다.
