Hellooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a space to document and record my English interpretations of K-pop songs
(which, before the 7th of December 2024, were uploaded here). This introduction post is for niceties and notes.
Below this introduction post is the date index then the artist index (which are also linked on this post for convenience).
After that, English covers will be uploaded below :)


Symbols I use in writing/formatting
'(...)' : Used for any words that may be opted-in whilst singing.
These either add an extra note/syllable to the line so they may be unnecessary to the singer, or they fill a certain note that may sound weird in English. Tldr: Sing these out to get the rhythm.
'(.../...)' : Used when I couldn't choose between two words so the singer has a choice to use whatever one they want :3
'-' : Two words/syllables come joined into one note, using half of the note each.
'-,' : Used to break up a word when the first syllable/note is held for a while (I'll link an example when I find one).
'[...]' : Used for adlibs and background vocals.
Anything else ('!' '?' ';' etc.) is used to look pretty on paper


Notes
I'm planning to go through earlier work and format it better, but for now the formatting is unstandardised.
With this, they're also worse in terms of interpretations, be cautious (I started becoming good with TXT so use that as a rule of thumb).
I usually don't do rap verses.
These are interpretations, which means my version of lyrics may deviate from the original message. This is always intentional if done.
I love talking about my English Covers, it's been a passion for a long time, so I'd love to hear any feedback or thoughts on them :)


Plans
Planning to do more girlgroups + Rewrite older interpretations
The Spotify Playlist is currently inactive since I've switch to Tidal (and sadly I can't embed Tidal playlists on here), trying to find a work around :)



Artist Index
Solo artists are sorted by their first names, not last.
'A-C'
'D-F'
'G-I'
'J-L'
'M-O'
'P-R'
'S-U'
'V-X'
'Y-Z'

My Faves
Love Phobia - Onew
Inception - Infinite
Zero - Infinite
Love or Die - Cravity
Maze In The Mirror - TXT
Ghosting - TXT
Brought the Heat Back - Enhypen

The Date index is on the post below
I hope you enjoy these interpretations <3

I can see, all the stars beaming onto Earth,
I can hear, even if I don’t hear a word,
Because I, know you’re with me, holding my hand

I can touch, even if I don’t feel comfort,
I reach, though I know the sky is too far,
Written in the night are all our,
Mem-ories that I just can’t,
Let flicker out, and die alone,

I want to become your slumber,
The one who you always dream of,
In the dusk, when the world harkens back to sleep,
I will think of you forever,
Even if you don't remember,
And the stars, that shine on us and the Earth

[hu~ hu~] [hu~ hu~]

The memoirs of our past, dance around into the night,
They shimmer and glow, as they flutter like fireflies,
And I wonder if, you can see them too,
Maybe you’re clo-,ser than I thought

It scares me to think that maybe,
I will never hear your whispers,
And all I, hear’s the silence of the cosmos,
I (wail/cry) into the cold dark,
That I may be left forgotten,
In these woods, and leave the world as a star,

I see you in my dreams,
I may not be in yours,
And you say something like,
That I shall never be alone,
And though you still may not think of me,
I still think of you, [i believe in you],
Even if I am gone

I want to become your slumber,
The one who you always dream of,
In the dusk, when the world harkens back to sleep,
As the fireflies around me,
Flicker out and darken the night,
I still hold, all our mem-ories in, my heart

Note: I referred to the Chinese lyrics more than the Korean ones.

Been tossing and turning through the night,
On my phone, past the morning,
Seen everything about love,
[(They’re)] all useless, all clueless
They think I can (just) say it,
When I don’t have (the) confidence,
I can’t even believe that you’ll want me to [no no no no]

Sometimes you’re so mean,
Sometimes you’re caring,
Sometimes you make me so confused, [your heart can’t be read]
You go from daring, to self-effacing,
You tug on my heartstrings like its love, [then I’m left all alone]

I’m getting so fed up,
Being on this stage,
Why don’t you end this act?

Oh this secret, ah,
I only grieve from,
I grow warm in my heart, then you cut all my viens off,
It’s not like I am (that) cautious,
About my affections,
But I’m scared you’ll run if they’re ever revealed,

Oh I bleed, ah,
In my dreams, ah,
I don’t know if you, know if you, want to even find out,
Can’t you stop, now,
Playing with, my fragile heart,
I am on my knees, on my knees, (I’m) begging you,
Tell me if all this is just a show,
Or love me so,

*rap*

Try-ing to act carefree,
When you are whelming,
And your actions don’t go my way, [they make me afraid]
Should I say something? Or remain silent?
I don’t want to mess up our timing, [and make me all alone]

Can’t you get up from your,
Seat in the Audience,
And finish up our play?

Oh this secret, ah,
I only grieve from,
I grow warm in my heart, then you cut all my viens off,
It’s not like I am (that) cautious,
About my affections,
But I’m scared you’ll run if they’re ever revealed,

There’s no reason for me to adore you,
Yet here I’m wanting, to understand [if you do feel the same]
If you like me say so, Before the curtain falls,
And you lose my feelings,

Oh this secret, ah,
I only grieve from,
I grow warm in my heart, then you cut all my viens off,
It’s not like I am (that) cautious,
About my affections,
But I’m scared you’ll run if they’re ever revealed,

Can’t you stop, now,
Playing with, my fragile heart,
I’ve now gone insane, gone insane, from your troubles,
My heart only wants to know the truth,
Before I’m through

Eyes on you, eyes on me, eyes on us when I take your hand,
Eyes on you, eyes on me, I want to know if-I can be your man

There’s something about the way you gaze at me,
So sweet, let’s start there,
You look magnificent under the moonlight,
No matter what you do, I promise you,

That my quick heartbeat, always doubles its rate,
Whenever you go, appear in front of my sight,
Throughout the day and night, you are my highlight

Eyes on you, eyes on me, eyes on us when I hold your hand,
Eyes on you, eyes on me, you are all I want to look at,

Tell me more about yourself,
Oh tell me what I have to do, to be(-come) yours,
Tell me more about yourself,
Tell me if I can be your man

I wonder if you came from Venus to meet,
Why here? Let’s go there,
Your words are what I need to feel so alive,
No matter what you do, I promise you, yeah

*rap*

Oh my quick heartbeat, always doubles its rate,
Whenever you go, appear in front of my sight,
Throughout the day and night, you are my highlight

Eyes on you, eyes on me, eyes on us when I hold your hand,
Eyes on you, eyes on me, you are all I want to look at

Tell me more about yourself,
Oh tell me what I have to do, to be(-come) yours,
Tell me more about yourself,
Tell me if I can be your man

*awesome ass beat*

You’re who I need from now on

Dancing, yeah,
As the curtain falls i can only step in, ay
Back to the stage where I watch and imagine,
Calling out your name, calling out my name,
It feels (so) different, tonight,

I have no reason to get this anxious,
Though I knew that this was coming for so long,
No way way way, no way way way,
I can’t be left here, without a shoulder to lean on,

Maybe I [with my heart],
Have been in the sun too much when you are [at the end],
Starting our last festival,

Oh don’t say no, oh oh oh
When I stand here alone,
I just need one moment,
(Be-)fore I lose your hand,
Although after tonight,
Our fates may not be aligned,
So say we’ll dance again,
Even if this may be our,

[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
Can’t I have this dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
Let me have this dance,
[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
I just want to dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
As the good times end,

There’s a mem-ory in, each star in the sky,
That glow and brighten up my, [darkest nights]
Do they, ever shine for you,
While, you think of us two?
I hope, you look at the sky when (you’re) alone

Maybe I, [with my heart]
Should accept the fact that you’re already, [at the end]
Starting our last festival,

Oh don’t say no, oh oh oh
When I stand here alone,
I just need one moment,
(Be-)fore I lose your hand,
Although after tonight,
Our fates may not be aligned,
So say we’ll dance again,
Even if this may be our,

[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
Can’t I have this dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
Let me have this dance,
[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
I just want to dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
As the good times end,

I(‘ve/have) no regrets,
Of our past moments,
I used to believe we were one,
Yeah, let the dawn break, welcome the sun,
As we jump off the dark stage into our,
Own different fates,
Light up our last festival, yeah

Whenever you bid goodbye,
Bid it with a smile,
I can’t imagine us,
Parting on bad terms,
If in the future we,
See each other once again,
Do greet me as we are,
Stars forever in the end

[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
I just want to dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
I just want to dance,
[Last, la, la la la la la, last]
I just want to dance,
[dance, da, da da da da da, dance]
As the good times end

Note: This one can be easily read as a parody though I'm not going to label it as such. I do not like what the original lyrics imply of the persona (the character TXT are singing as) so I simply have satirised it.

Open the coffin and let me throw in the emotion called love,
Let me eradicate it from my brain and send it above,
Scratch off my skin and rip my viens that pumped all of this blood,
Out of my heart, and into my lungs,

How could you break up when I said,
‘Our fantasy will never end?’
You got me killed with all that stress,
As if I care about you now,

Oh but maybe, you have saved me, from the dreamy clouds,
Don’t-look away you, made me hell bound,
Watch watch gotta watch watch me yeah
[watch me as I gun myself]

Oh you have made this good boy, gone bad,
I’m such a good boy, gone bad,
A heartless little good boy, gone bad,
[watch me as I harm myself],
Oh won’t you watch me tear off, my chest,
And see this good heart, go dead,
Who knew I’d be a good boy, gone bad, now
[watch me as I bruise myself]

Good boy gone bad,
[good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad],
Good boy gone bad,
[good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad],

Can’t you believe you’ve wasted all this time,
Reviving me when you should’ve realised,
I’m like a zombie in the dead of night,
And I have never felt so more alive,

Misery seems to fit my fate,
And I won’t let myself escape,
That-‘ll just fill me with all this pain,
That makes me care about you now,

I am doing, everything to, show that I have changed,
You just gotta, attend to me,
Watch watch gotta watch watch me yeah
[watch me as I gun myself]

Oh you have made this good boy, gone bad,
I’m such a good boy, gone bad,
A heartless little good boy, gone bad,
[watch me as I harm myself],
Oh won’t you watch me tear off, my chest,
And see this good heart, go dead,
Who knew I’d be a good boy, gone bad, now
[watch me as I bruise myself]
[good boy gone bad]

(The-) more that I bleed, the more I think,
That my heart pumps only mem-ories of you,
Love is a lie, so why do I, seem to die so numb inside?

Giving up, all of my gut and trust,
Just because I have lost my reason to live that was us,
Look at me, look at me, this is what you see and what you get,
And I’ll forever hate you, you’re not looking anymore
[Aren't I such a sight?]

Oh you have made this good boy, gone bad,
I’m such a good boy, gone bad,
A heartless little good boy, gone bad,
[watch me crack and break again],
Oh won’t you watch me tear off, my chest,
And see this good heart, go dead,
Who knew I’d be a good boy, gone bad, now
[watch me be left in ruin]

Good boy gone bad,
[good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad],
Good boy gone bad,
[good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad, good boy gone bad],
Good boy gone bad!

[Oh, how deep is your]
[Love, how deep is your]
[Love, oh]
How deep, how deep, how deep, how deep
Ready for it

Look here,
If you want to know my heart,
Diving into it is a start,
There’s so much waiting,
To be found hidden in there,
For you (my) baby,

From your head, to your feet,
Your hairs rise, to the beat,
My love grows, in size and speed,
You can’t keep up with me,
Do you really think I desire a slow rhythm?
You say I’m wrong, but here’s the deal,

You are, naive about me,
Curi-,ously,
You walk in the, country,
Little light left,
Don’t leave, it’s getting crazy,
Instead of just talking,
You can show me,
How deep, how deep, how deep, how deep

Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Show me, how deep, how deep, how deep, how deep,
Ready for it

I am, circling throughout the night,
Working out what’s in your eyes,
It takes one sight,
Of you to lose all my breath,
It’s-suffocating,

And the moon, stays in place,
As we dance, to the beat,
Now I know you don’t want much,
I’m the one that you need,
There’s something in your heart that tells me there’s more to see,
And like before, I dive in deep,

You are, naive about me,
Curi-,ously,
You walk in the, country,
Little light left,
Don’t leave, it’s getting crazy,
Instead of just talking,
You can show me,
How deep, how deep, how deep, how deep

Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Show me, how deep, how deep, how deep, how deep,
Ready for it

Come on show me your love,
[how deep is your love]
How deep is your love?
[how deep is your love] No,
[how deep is your love]
How deep is your love? [ready for it]
Oh,
[how deep is your love]
How deep is your love?
[how deep is your love]
How deep is your love?
[how deep is your love]
Ooh, Ready for it,

You are, naive about me,
Curi-,ously,
You walk in the, country,
Little light left,
Don’t leave, it’s getting crazy,
Instead of just talking,
You can show me,
How deep, how deep, how deep, how deep

Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Is your love, for me?
Show me, how deep, how deep, how deep, how deep,
Ready for it
[Oh, how deep is your]
[Love, how deep is your]
[Love, oh]
How deep, how deep, how deep, how deep
Ready for it

They say love never reveals itself with words,
It never starts with hello[hello, hello,]
I’ve heard that we’re meant to feel what is hidden,
Our eyes don’t see the same,

And I’m left here,
Waiting for that moment,
Will I ever love?
Will it ever come?

Then the breeze, bursts and launches such passion, that makes the trees dance and sing,
And the forest rumbles in-delight,
My heart that was cursed to be, dreaming for eternity,
Wakes up and rushes all of my thoughts,
Do the leaves, fly around me because someone’s in my sight?
Or maybe, the windmill turns so much from one voice in time?
Now I realise it’s you who makes, me feel all of these things,

I can’t help the branches that snap, and fall on my head,
Or the fact it’s always you, who renders me red,
I have so much to say that my words turn into air, and they blow, and they blow,

Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,

I don’t care if the wind gets me shivering,
I don’t care if my hair flies,
It may become cold and start to rain but I’ll,
Always stay warm and dry,

And I await,
To feel your rising gust,
Bloom within my heart,
And yearn for our love,

Then the breeze, bursts and launches such passion, that makes the trees dance and sing,
And the forest rumbles in-delight,
My heart that was cursed to be, dreaming for eternity,
Wakes up and rushes all of my thoughts,
Do the leaves, fly around me because someone’s in my sight?
Or maybe, the windmill turns so much from one voice in time?
Now I realise it’s you who makes, me feel all of these things,

I can’t help the branches that snap, and fall on my head,
Or the fact it’s always you, who renders me red,
I have so much to say that my words turn into air, and they blow, and they blow,

Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,

Oh I can feel the affection in your one breath,
And I seem to melt from those three words you just confessed,
My heart explodes and I feel like, I’m standing on top, of the world, of the world,

Cause your breeze, bursts and launches such passion, that makes the trees dance and sing,
And the forest rumbles in-delight,
My heart that was cursed to be, dreaming for eternity,
Wakes up and rushes all of my thoughts,
Do the leaves, fly around me because someone’s in my sight?
Or maybe, the windmill turns so much from one voice in time?
Now I realise it’s you who makes, me feel all of these things,

I can’t help the branches that snap, and fall on my head,
Or the fact it’s always you, who renders me red,
I have so much to say that my words turn into air, and they blow, and they blow,

Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,
Windy day,

Note: I took my interpretation more from the original poem written by Jang Jung-il. I may be willing to write a version more accurate to txt's lyrics, if I do it'll appear here.

It took fifteen seconds for me,
To understand love,
My gaze was glued to the screen,
And you smiled to me, as you washed your hair,

It took fifteen seconds to meet,
The one I dream of,
You’re as cute as you can be,
When you pop those bubbles, you-keep in my square

As the clock strikes one,
My tv turns on,
And I see your face,
Warm my rotten heart,

My precious fairy,
Clad in white and blue,
Do you have to fade,
When our moment’s through?

Oh when I wake up in the morning there’s no fairytale,
I go through the day thinking of your lips and my heart swells,
And I doze off at my desk, thinking of our treasured moments,
God those women that I gotta work with,
Never keep their skin as clear, (and) their bodies as thin,
I see you on an ad afar,
That is who you are,
Yet you are the only one who gets me

It took fifteen seconds for me,
To dream of you fast,
I must see you on my screen,
Cause I don’t know how I’ll, live-if you’re not there

As the clock strikes one,
My tv turns on,
And I see your face,
Warm my rotten heart,

My precious fairy,
Clad in white and blue,
Do you have to fade,
When our moment’s through?

Oh can’t you appear right here, bring me love?
There’s no reason to leave me, in the dark

As the clock strikes one,
My tv turns on,
And I see your face,
Warm my rotten heart,

Oh those sweet whispers,
Are not like before,
Show me all of you,
That’s what (you-were/you’re) paid for
