Taeyeon - I
Famed for her voice as well as her beauty, Girls'Generation leader Taeyon debuts as a solo artist at long last. Fans have been waiting for this
for a while! Her new mini-album consists of six tracks, including her
self-penned title song "I" featuring rapper Verbal Jint. The Album released on October 7th 2015.
Sweeping and anthemic, "I" is a fantastic tune. It's largely acoustic with Taeyeon's voice featuring as the main attraction. Verbal
Jint has his spot early on, and in another section, he
raps the lyrics simultaneously as she sings, giving the tune even more depth.
Her voice is used extremely well here, soaring all over the track. The song is
about living well despite obstacles.
"U R" is a ballad that showcases Taeyeon's ability nicely as her voice rises to eclipse
the instrumentation. The production they threw at the later parts of the song
serves to enhance the effect. She really lays bare the emotion as her vocals
crescendo. The song itself is an ode to a lover.
"Gemini"
is stylistically different from "U R," her voice more measured. It's still a slower song,
but with gentle claps and a medium tempo. The vocals range from sweet to strong
when appropriate, and it's got a nice, singable hook: "Come
to me baby / Come come to me baby." The
lyrics are tender, and speak of being together.
"Stress" is the high-tempo tune on the EP with a pounding drum
and insistent piano riff. The way she wraps her voice around the verses is
breathless with some nice belts during the chorus. The song itself is awesome,
about a bad guy that she just can't resist, and it freaks her out.
"Farewell" a sweetly-sung ballad, reminding me a lot of a lullaby. The lyrics are about a breakup, but they're a little different from the standard. She asks "Are people who walk alone like me?" and suggests that "maybe I should have shown you my shabby self first."
