Amerie and Se7en make beautiful music

Published May 24, 2007 Amerie , Se7en

R&B singer, Amerie and Korea’s finest, Se7en have come together to record a new remix of Amerie’s hit single, “Take Control.” Both singers seem super sweet on camera - Amerie is cute at her attempts at Korean, “에므리 입니다”, and Se7en with his surprisingly good English. And the remix sounds fresh. Se7en sounds sexxxy.

The new single was released on May 14 for the Asian market. So far no signs of a music video.

Amerie is here in Korea to perform on 2 dates: May 24 & 25th, but the concert was suddenly canceled by Korean organizers, K2M Entertainment just a week before.

“I’ve always loved the way you shake your behind”? . . . This is why I hardly ever listen to songs in English anymore.

I second that.

I agree with you guys. I have lost interest in English songs as well.

I don’t really care for Amerie but was hoping it would be a good song at least.

His part sucks and it wasn’t even long. He needs a song that would show his vocals more. Plus, a song with a better beat.

i agree with all of u i’ve lost touch with american music. and the day all singers in korea start to copy that in terms of lyrics and music videos will be the day i leave korean stuff too

I agree, I lost interest in English music

the “behind” part was kind of dumb
10 tae May 25, 2007 at 9:56 am

se7en’s english is okay…but he has sort of an accent that i’m uncomfortable wish. or maybe its just because i’ve lived in america all my life

i agree about the “behind” thing. it’s so weird..

LOL~ same here. altho american rnb music and the indie ones are the only ones I listen to nowadays ^^

Regarding “behind”, kinda worried if Se7en’s US Release will have some of THOSE lyrics. Major turn-off, *crosses finger* hopefully not!
13 Se7en Heaven May 26, 2007 at 6:42 am

“I’ve always loved the way you shake your behind?” Oh, I hate this American stuff like this or “shake your booty” -_-That’s the reason I’m not interested in American music anymore. Unfortunately Se7en’s part in “Take control” is very short and it doesn’t show his vocals so well. Did you know that Chris Martin have had originally sung Wookie’s part when he wasn’t busy with his family? Amerie just chose Se7en because she didn’t get Chris Martin of Coldplay!!! (He wouldn’t fit in this song anyway…) Sorry for all Amerie fans but I really don’t like her. In the end she’s so lucky because Wookie touches her hand in the end of this video but she didn’t know I think. Poor girl… -_-zzz And good news for Se7en fans: He will release his new Japanese single album (the 6th) on July 4th. It’s called “Bare truth” and it includes of course “Bare truth” and “Believe” as well as the instrumental versions of both songs. Here is the warning: The CD version just has 5000 copies and the CD+DVD version just 12000 copies so hurry up when you wanna get one of them!!! Please continue supporting our Director Choi and buy all his CDs!!! HWAITING, OPPA!!! P.S.: Oppa is gonna show his “new, sexy image”… I just can say the CD cover is so damn freaky hot!!! *dribble* (Sorry ^^)

what was se7en thinking, if he wabted to say ass, he should have said ass, not behind =/
16 aly June 19, 2007 at 8:31 pm

i think that the se7en remix should sell in other countries too
because i heard both and honestly the one with se7en sounded better
plus that would help him a little with his american debut

Ugh. Totally not a fan of Amerie. Every song = Whiny voice = Ear hurting. No offense and all.

20 Jini October 22, 2007 at 7:22 am

I’ve grown on to Kpop too much that I’m also losing interest in american music too (like the people at the beginning of the comments) ^o^
21 sweet November 6, 2007 at 8:15 pm

of course seven could speak great english! Amerie wasn’t even aware of that. I miss Se7en! I hope to see him here lolz
22 sweet November 6, 2007 at 8:16 pm

same here I’d rather listen to KPOP.
23 eh0jlx December 22, 2007 at 4:53 am

There’s a girl in my KOR 201 class at ASU (Arizona State University), that’s related to Amerie. They’re cousins . . . I kid you not!!! But nobody really cared, cuz nobody really likes Amerie???

niggers and gooks belong together
26 air February 11, 2008 at 5:47 pm

they look so good together but when I heard him say behind it was over. Amerie, Se7en I know both of you can do better than that. Also, I find it odd all of you all are like american music is all like that. Yeah it’s not (is partial to intelligent music. Lupe <3)

but really if he uses ‘behind’ in songs it doesn’t bode well ;_; at least his song with fabulous is good.
27 CeceliaS March 31, 2008 at 5:55 pm

Ewlll…why does sweet se7en even go with the lyrics? It’s horrible >___< WTH!!! Behind? OMG!! This world is going down the drain…I swear if I was a singer I’m so gonna keep my lyrics clean not full of sexual words or anything…more like just emphasizing not actually doing exotic stuff like American artists…KEEP OUR WORLD CLEAN!!
28 CeceliaS March 31, 2008 at 6:04 pm

wait hold up~ is this suppose to be a sexual song? Hahas OMG!! It sound so funny!! WTH!!
29 The Girl In Question January 6, 2009 at 5:30 pm

Most of you guys need to get over it! o.0 It’s a cute, flirty song! Not every song has to be deep and thoughtful. Some are just meant to be fun, like this one. Geez! And in my opinion American music>>>>>>>>>>Korean music. Even though I love Se7en and think he’s super hot ^0^!! But it should be noted that I rearely listen to mainstream American music. If I only listend to American pop like most of you, I wouldn’t like it much either.
