“Falling Slowly” on Kim Jeong-eun’s “Chocolate”

lyn_parkhyoshin_20091107

With Lyn, Park Hyo-shin, Seo In-gook, and SS501.

On November 7th, Lyn and Park Hyo-shin performed a duet together of “Falling Slowly” from the 2007 Irish movie “Once“. Simple yet profound with mellow, acoustic rock instrumentation, “Falling Slowly” is probably one of the most beautiful songs composed in the past decade, sung by two indie musicians (Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova).

As two of Korea’s most talented singers, Lyn and Park Hyo-shin contribute a really great cover of “Falling Slowly” with their deep resonating vocals and a bit more soul than the original. They harmonize together incredibly well and there’s nothing like the raw power of good voices, so the accent is excusable. Check it out~

Park Hyo-shin did a little dance performance of “Deja Vu“. Although he leaves much to be desired in the flow department, his shy smile makes you go “Aww~it’s okay. You’re trying. A for effort.”

In addition to these two heavyweights, newcomer Seo In-gook from Superstar K and SS501 were also featured on “Chocolate”.

Seo In-gook certainly has an amazing pair of vocal chords, and his humble, yet smooth persona really makes the girls swoon. Just wanted to share his cover of Frankie J’s ”Don’t Wanna Try“~

SS501’s latest mini-album, “Rebirth“, is quite strong, and coupled with their bold new image, these boys are making no stops to the top. “Green Peas” is a quaint and simple song that highlight each of the boys’ vocals quite nicely. I’m totally digging Kyu-jong ’s skirt jacket.

    You know, ‘Falling Slowly’ is one of my favorite songs of right now but I can’t say I liked their cover very much. I did enjoy the background score though! The band did a fabulous job!

    Oh, I did like the chorus of the two sychronizing. It was sweet. :)

    The first half with the guy who did Frankie J’s ‘Don’t Wanna Try’ was impressive though and then it got a little cheesy! :) Still, I liked it! It wasn’t so bad.

    I agree. I think Park Hyo-shin did good, but Lyn changed it a bit. This movie is my favorite <3
    They did wonderful though and made a classic still sound beautiful.

    I have never heard Lyn singing before. Her voice is amazing!!! Similar to Seline Dione’s

    Park Hyo-shin’s voice makes me want to jump off a bridge, but that hair style makes me want to run to a walgreens to buy a razor and buzz it al off … maybe an umbrella too, while I’m over there.

    I love you Lyn.
