I capture the precious essence of the original vocal soul, imbuing it into a newborn butterfly to strengthen its wings, so it can soar high above the unknown sea, reaching its destiny beyond the horizon.
Hence, the newborn butterfly is called Metamorph*
Hence my logo.
*The METAMORPH coincidence Metamorph is a very specific neologism.
I use metamorph to describe the newborn hyper-conforming English adaptation as a butterfly in a new state of being, with its unique original essence intact and is thus flight-ready on global seas.
In mid 2023, Taemin's concert was named Metamorph. In early 2022, I named my advanced adaptation technique Metamorph, made social media posts with the term. Resonance begets resonance. And resonance, is exactly why I metamorph. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hG9WkhC6mOY.html

Please keep supporting SHINee and SHINee only. You have great taste in artists I probably don't need to say that but I'm nervous lol. I feel your genius. I'm possessive. Love SHINEE ONLY
I echo other comments: please make more Taemin English adaptations. Please continue your creative promotion of Taemin's songs internationally. I can't thank you enough!
Thank you for spending precious time to elevate Taemin's work in the most generous manner. You're like the 1:40 starlight showers in a time of darkness, I feel 'saturated in hope' ... as you beautifully worded. This is a very meaningful gift in this cynical place, really, thank you so so much🫶💖
Your work is pure class, undeniable talent shining through, you grasp his art in its aesthetics, substance, and can channel his multiplicity! I wish Taemin knows he has options like this, I wish...
Wowowow fantastic fabulous take! You got serious ace dramatic flair! More more more! Next...I would LOVE to sing along to to to to SEX IS I MEAN SEXY IN THE AIR🥳
You know I've accepted I'll only get two types of KPOP English lyrics: vacuous, corny. Taemin is none of those, but that's all he got. I didn't expect to hear something this....Taemin?! Your modern high romantic intense vibe is a perfect match with our drama king! Incredible! Another thing, I love Horizon to bits but there are too many WTF SMH word choices, which you magically disappeared! How did you do it and still keep everything flowing beautifully??? I dgaf about KPOP English versions but I can totallly hear Taemin doing this English version! I can totally sell this to everyone around me who is not a KPOP fan! Bloody grateful for this eye nah brain nananah heart opener!! Thank you!
Shawols! Taemin's official channel is back!! 🥲😄😄😄😄 Thank you Superwols for shining the torch when @TAEMIN_BPM was in the dark! Thank you METAMO❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
It's strange for me to hear SHINee in English lyrics that fit them like a glove, strange in the nicest way. Your writing technique is so interesting, delicate but also powerful.... Would you adapt Key's Killer or Bad Love?
Another AWESOME production from you! Your deliberate verbal and visual framing of Taemin in Matrix-like backdrop, the way he stares down spy cams, ON POINT!!!!! Sorry lol but I'm gonna try again, please do Criminal! Deja VU too!
I don't know how to explain why this "singable translation that rhymes with Korean" feels so right but it just works! Like your cyberpunk Gotham city MV story edit, esply the frentic first chorus energy.. Rebellion/failed escape is like a recurring Taemin theme no doubt. Just wanna thank you for your super high effort support of Taemin!
So elegantly done! Thanks for doing Taemin's music justice. I love the chorus parts 'sudden vertigo panic' and 'going volcanic', so natural and graphic and super nice to sing to! I like your lyrical tone I feel like your style matches Taemin's vibe, not sure if you take requests but if you do please convert/adapt Deja Vu !!?
👏👏👏These lyrics feel like vintage pop at its finest, much like Lee Taemin himself❤🔥 I had to step out of lurk mode after listening to your equally stunning renditions of Heaven and Under My Skin. Your works are classic good songwriting but that’s not all, you’ve also mastered the advanced phonetic sync technique that bilingual songwriters sometimes mark around with after a few drinks😁 But oh you pulled it off beautifully.....and consistently! Respect from a recording pro, this is yet another art Berklee couldn’t teach me, impressive... I truly hope your powerful potential gets recognized by K-pop vocal aces instead of being left in the shadows like Lee Taemin. Wishing you all the best❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
This is just crazy. Despite my usual optimism I'm about to give up on Taemin ever breaking out of that anti-lyrics pit....... I'm sick of the industry's money politics and the attempt to suppress THE ACE which we know IS the main theme of Horizon I'm about to quit Kpop and here we got a lyrical maverick getting my hopes up again! Man your adaptation is simply NEXT LEVEL. Good classic smooth flowy pop lyrics and on top of that? Thematic coherence! Genre appropriate words. Do people know how rare that is? And on top of that? It feels like Taemin's singing! It feels emotionally true! Crazy! And on top of that? I don't have to frown at papago google chatgpt lyrics subtitles anymore! And on top of that? I can sing along to Taemin's Korean in natural English! On top of that? Artful English that is ARTFUL LIKE TAEMIN! How many ON TOP OF THAT so far? How many? This. Is. CRAZY. I was about to quit Kpop I tell you cuz the truth is I can't stand watching THE ACE's dream being casually CRUSHED by 20cts English lyrics anymore! Every REAL Taemin fan who speaks elementary English knows exactly what is happening! That anti-lyrics pit is swallowing his American dream and NOBODY CARED ENOUGH TO WARN HIM! I can't pretend, I can't watch it anymore! And here we have something BETTER than good lyrics! This is pure magic no this is PURE GOLD, GUYS. How many ON TOP OF THAT do I need to repeat? Are we seeing hearing feeling what I'm feeling???????? This innovative next level lyrics IS ON BRAND. ON TAEMIN BRAND. He should ride on this lyrics innovation to USA! Make it his thing! All his top songs deserve this crazy good innovative treatment! Whoever in charge better CLAIM THIS ASAP. Claim this INNOVATIVE ART CREATOR before you-know-who grab it or step on it! This is the escape route for him! Me and my Asian diaspora family and pals and dogs want Taemin in America! Like NOW! Anyway I don't know what else I can do other than typing essays in youtube comments but thanks for well, EVERYTHING. Especially, thanks for keeping Taemin's Billboard hope alive for me!
I get your angst, I think I've maxed out my tolerance for fake English lyrics but I'm not gonna quit on my SHINee boys no no. I just feel a breakthrough is near and magic in the air. Don't give up!
@@PopIsPop I did sound angsty lol. I'm not quitting Taemin, just tapping out of the Kpop Hunger Games. Not gonna mince words. No more time! GUILTY E-N-G-L-I-ZZZ was still bearable but ETERNAL Engrish is Kpop 2014 bottom tier! Taemin is not PSY, Taemin IS TAEMIN. Give him TAEMIN level lyrics! THE ACE trying to FLY TO USA. With what? 20 cents bullshit English in EVERY WEST-FRIENDLY SONG???? Brainrot Kpop edition???? Taemin's American dream is done. His wings are not clipped. They are FRIED! SHINee crowd ain't deaf. Everybody rolls eyes inside, and does NOTHING. Everybody screams ART! KING! ACE! but nobody respected him enough to save his ACE ART! Nobody got the guts to tell him his SONGS AIN'T GONNA FLY. Not to Billboard not to USA!! We know the cause. We see the solutions. We know vomit lyricists from genius lyricists! But he doesn't. His team doesn't. So what will happen? What does the trajectory look like? G-UI-L-T-Y >>> RIZZNESS >>> O-M-G-G-O-A-T >>> SITA >>> (???) Yes. No "I LOVE TAEMIN" is gonna save Taemin from the anti-lyrics pit IN KOREA. He's staying there, sinking deeper, while we cheer. Meanwhile the solution is staring at us here. The actual loophole. For him to escape the pit. That Kpop Hunger Games. His escape route. BLINKING. Like a fking BEAUTIFUL neon sign. And nobody noticed. Except us. LOL. "This is Crazy" Understatement of the year. What are we gonna do now? HM?
MY GOODNESS this is an amazingly professional job in every aspect, the lyrics, the delivery the editing the story telling and the closing message for Taemin! This is what I call positive power reinforcement! With creativity PLUS PLUS! Thank you for everything! I got LOTS MORE to say but my my my my my goodness right now i am just speechless!!
Insane, insane, insanely beautiful songwriting. Please keep shining your light on SHINee. Your insanely beautiful songwriting artistry make my cynical jaded heart want to sing again. Thank you for loving SHINee in the most beautiful and meaningful way 💖💖💖
Why am I discovering this crazy songwriter only now, I'm the snobbiest music snob this is insanely good songwriting! This isn't just a successful 'translation' it is just good pop songwriting and the fact the song meaning flows in sync and channeling Taemin's spirit in every way, is just.... insane insane insane times one hundred!! Taemin just lures out the best creative people! Insane...
Here we got a Taemin level lyricist cooking up alchemical lyrics that match SHINee energy on every single aspect, but Taemin is still singing cjk gibberish to cjk audience in 2024 and stuck in cjk, sigh I tell you... what is wrong with the world!
You are amazing, amazing on so many levels too, you are a match of our boys energy, please do Taemin's latest songs, The Ace needs excellent lyricists like you like never before!
Is there a version of only the English translation? It’s difficult to hear when there’s 2 voices singing at the same time and I just want to hear the English version
I've said it last year and I'll say it again... the artistry, the respect, the passion, the technical genius, the amount of care in the way you adapted Taemin's songs into a distant language, is simply amazing, simply unmatched. I'm sorry we live in a world when actual artists who care about other great artists are drown out by big money hype and noise. Please don't stop doing what you do, you are super, super appreciated!
I can't believe how tender the English adaptation is. I didn't know it's possible to translate like that, to choose carefully words like that. I can't really explain it, but the lyrics _feel_ Taemin. Of course, I can't claim I know how he really is. But my image of him corresponds with the tone of these gentle lyrics and it just feels right. I don't know... In my eyes, this translation is unbelievably good, it's something everyone should strive to and hope to achieve. Thank you.
Inspired by their latest concerts, with deep admiration, I've crafted this ode to celebrate the indomitable fiery diamond spirit of SHINee. It's an acknowledgment of their dedication to greatness and Shawols' unwavering faith and courage through ups and downs. This little gesture is my way of reflecting your shining light back to you. From Singapore with love. See y'all there. FIRE by SHINee, English adaptation (chorus) Through your Voice that must be heaven-sent, your love has remade me Through the Base we were reborn, we shine on, to Face a brave new day Can't help myself but Chase your light from great beyond Embrace the Ace shining in graceful fire Fire to transform my heart anew and never look back 💎💎💎💎💎
I could mouth the English lyrics to this song - you make the Japanese lyrics sound like English for that make sense. This brought tears to my eyes as I’m struggling through hard times and coping with the expectations of people around me. Thank you Taemin and thank you shinee world for healing me ❤
