My Heaven Big Bang

Prior to this I did wrote a post entitle 'BIG BANG inTown', and related to that, I just found out that Big Bang were here to make their new music video for a song namedMy Heaven ( one of the my fav) Japanese Version. The name of the original version(in korean) is Heaven(Cheonguk).

Their new Japan album will be release on 26th this month! Thinking of buying it but it is quite costy. A cd merely contains 2 songs cost about ¥1000 or ¥1800 including DVD(music video and the video of the making to the video) one.

I just found it yesterday after coming across it on the U-tube.Anyway i uploaded 2 of the videos, one is the Japanese version and another is the the original one.

The difference are ,one, obviously the language itself but what distinguish both of these (besides the language used) is the harmony between th lyric(of both language) and the melody. I m used to listen to Heaven Korean version and it is kinda weird to hear it in Japanese. And personally i think that the song is acceptable but not an anticipating one.

Big Bang - My Heaven (Japanese version)







Big Bang - Heaven/ Cheonguk (Original version)




The 1st time i hear to the original Heaven, there is an impact, this feel of i-want-to-listen-again kind of feeling, thatt is to say that, the lyric fit perfectly with the melody.
Eventhough i understand not a word of it (except for the english word, Heaven, and love ), the song still sound beautifully.
But when i hear the Japanese version of Heaven, everyting seem to crumble down.. not that enjoyable anymore especially when u understand the language and it sound funny(no offense guys) for someone who just learn the language to sing it in the language u have just learn (a.k.a none native speakers). It don't sound right.Even my Japanese suck...i still can speak smoothly to my japanse friends...luckly enough they dont mind. Unless u master it and u are able to speak and sound like the native speaker(in this case singing), only then the lyric and melody is united as one, and a nice perfect song is created!

(i m not a expert in music, i just write what i know and feel...

nway hope u guys enjoy the song!
