Cover TWICE - Behind the Mask (English Lyrics written by me) (1 Viewer)

[RainbowMoon]

I can't describe it well but anytime a song is first in another language and then an English ver is made, it feels like they try to force the English into the song to make it fit like....adding more words or less words to fit the beat/melody.

Yeah, I know what you mean but that's what I love about the English versions. They can reach a larger audience and sort of satisfy international fans who don't read the lyrics, such as you. Usually, they don't beat the originals, but they are sometimes really good.

Like Cry for Me English version is perfection while One Spark is a little messy (though I've listened to that one more than I have the original XD)

One Spark has an eng ver?

Ok...this reminds me of another reason why I don't like Eng....

Sometimes you still need Eng subtitles...

Yeah...that's how I feel about this one. A lot of the other ones are very clear though so I don't think it's even the members' fault. I feel like they just tried to fit too many words into this one.

Haha yep

huh?

I thought the same as fdonce, often I do not understand much in the english versions..

But unlike him, I always loved the english version of I can't stop me! I think that one turned out really great

Yep! The I Can't Stop Me and Cry for Me English versions were perfect imo!
I just hate the "risky risky why you test me" line LMAO

I think you made a thread a while ago titled something like "Twice released the English version and remixes of One Spark"

Fdonce exposed

I only checked out the remixes

Fdonce double exposed!!! He even exposed himself!!!

 

[Selfmate]

Nope but it still was a lot of work. Especially trying to get the rhythms to fit. If I didn't have rhythm, I could pretty much write whatever I want and call it good 🙃

of course didn't mean to demean your work by saying it wasn't long

Like LSFM's lyrics

you make it look easy!!!

 

[Selfmate]

Fdonce exposed

it's the ICE it's gotten to him!!!

Oh no, don't worry I know 😊
But that's good tbh. I'd rather encourage more people to try this than discourage them by making it look/sound hard!

it actually takes more work and thought to make something 'simple' you know
