[뉴스엔=김명미 기자] YOON and MINO from WINNER covered BIGBANG’s ‘Still Life’.

YOON and MINO from group WINNER unveiled their cover of ‘Still Life’ on the 17th of July. The two opened up a whole new chapter with their reinterpretation of the song, decorated by YOON’s appealing voice and MINO’s dynamic rapping.

YOON sang TAEYANG and DAESUNG’s parts and once again lived up to his reputation of being a ‘must-listen to’ vocalist. His soulful tone added to his explosive voice added even more loneliness to the song, and his ability to control the strength of his voice and emotions gave a deep lingering feeling to the viewers.

MINO presented his very own style of rap unlike G-DRAGON and TOP. The lyrics he wrote such as ‘The sigh of a mature dreamer overlaps with my very self’ showed MJINO’s own philosophical thoughts. His cover of the song again confirmed his unrivaled artistic senses with the structured rhymes and his distinctive lyrics.

The dynamic yet calm stage directions, which almost seemed like a music video, also stressed the two artists’ strengths. The set and props represented the flow in time, and the pin lights and special effects such as lightening and volcanic ash made viewers fall into the clip even more.

[헤럴드경제=고승희 기자] G-DRAGON from group BIGBANG reinterpreted Elvis Presley’s song with his own emotions.

According to YG Entertainment on the 18th, G-DRAGON unveiled the homage clip of ‘Cant Help Falling in Love’ on his official YouTube account.

G-DRAGON rearranged and sung Elvis Presley’s song, and Baz Luhrmann directed the video.

G-DRAGON’s ‘Can’t Help But Falling in Love’ had different charms compared to the original song. His quietly reciting vocals were added on to the piano sound, creating a light yet lonely atmosphere.

But the twist begins half way through the song. Along with a faster tempo, the sound turns into a rock-band sound, and the electric guitar creates perfect harmony with the intense drum beats. This song showed G-DRAGON’s vast musical spectrum.

In particular, the clip resembled an art piece with visualist Baz Luhrmann, who’s a representative director of Hollywood, directing the clip.

Director Baz Luhrmann, has been receiving positive reviews from the public with his recently released film ‘Elvis’. The movie depicts the music, stage, and life of the unknown singer “Elvis” (Austin Butler), who was a truck driver, and the process of him meeting the star maker “Tom Parker” (Tom Hanks) who recognized him right away to become an one and only legend.
