Taeyeon is known as the leader of SNSD/Girl’s Generation and their lead vocalist of the group. She is known for her wide range of vocals and catchy songs which most of us can definitely relate to.

Here are some of Taeyeon’s songs that we’re looking forward to hear on her first solo concert here in MNL.

1. Fine

This song was released last February 2017 and was included on her first studio album “My Voice”. This song is solely about how someone feels during break up. The songs focuses on Taeyeon’s vocal and that goosebumps feel when she launches herself for the chorus. You will definitely get the I-know-how-that-feels vibes.

하루 한 달 일 년 그 쯤이면
웃으며 추억 할 거라 했지만
나는 아니야
쉽지 않을 것 같아

( When one day, one month, one year passes
You said you’d probably smile and reminisce but not me, it won’t be easy for me.)

2. I

This is her debut song as a solo artist. “I” was released last October 2015. Reading through the translated lyrics, the song is about someone who faces struggles in life, but instead of focusing on the unfavorable circumstances, she decided to see the beauty of life .

빛을 쏟는 Sky
그 아래 선 I
꿈꾸듯이 Fly
My Life is a Beauty

(Sky that pours light
(I) stand under it
Fly as if I’m dreaming
My life is a beauty)

3. Rain

This was digitally release by SM Ent. for SMTown Station. This song really compliments Taeyeon’s voice. The song is pertaining to “Tears” that is being shed because of a painful breakup. This is about the agony and the tearful recollection.

비가 오면 내리는 기억에 번지는 아픔에
흠뻑 쏟아지는 너를 보다
선명했던 그 시간에 멈춘 채
추억에 젖은 채
아름다웠던 너를 그려 in the rain

(Memories come down when it rains, spreading pain
Watching you as you get soaked
Clear in that moment,
wet with memories
I think of you when you were beautiful in the rain)

4. 11:11

This song was released digitally on November 2016. The lyrics is about a girl’s reminiscences about making wishes with her former lover when the clock struck 11:11. 11:11 is a multidimensional bridge between 2 reality systems, the old reality of duality and the new reality of oneness.

모든 게 자릴 찾아서 떠나가고
넌 내 모든 걸 갖고서 떠나도
내 맘은 시계 속의 두 바늘처럼
같은 곳을 두고 맴돌기만 해

(Everything finds its place and leaves
You took all of me and left
But like the two hands of the clock in my heart
I keep lingering in the same place)

5. Why

This song was digitally released on June 2016. The lyrics of the song seems to saying goodbye to a long time love, her comfort zone and to finally move on. The Why music video was thought of to be an Epilogue of her song, Starlight (featuring Dean).

쫓아가기도 벅차 숨이 찬
세상이 전부는 아냐
하루 종일 걸어도 똑같은
풍경은 절대 보이지 않아
하얀 종이에 적어 본 Why
잉크처럼 번지는 맘
I’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling to you

(The world isn’t all about
trying to catch up
Even if I walk all day the same
landscape will never been seen
I wrote on white paper, why,
my heart smears like ink
I’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling to you)

Taeyeon’s songs are mostly about break up, heartbreaks and moving on. Don’t miss the chance to see her perform these songs live on 12/14 at New Frontier Theatre and be ready to be mesmerize by her voice.
