Taemin will be back soon. Time for an out breath.
An adaptation of Heaven with Identity prelude. A celebration of an exceptional artist, and a demonstration of a new lyrical art form that I call Metamorph.
...
The bilingual bi-vocal mixing is deliberate, as a demonstration of Metamorph, a lyrical technique that deepens emotional resonance across a great language divide.
The creative process is indeed high effort. But it is rewarding for me. I hope it can be equally rewarding for you!
Motivation: personal love and respect for art
Result: connection of hearts 🩵🦋❤️🔥

Original lyrics: Taemin, Yoo Young-jin
Composers: Klara Osk Eliasdottir, Markus Videsäter, Emanuel Abrahamsson, Yoo Young-jin
Arrangement: Yoo Young-jin

WHY I METAMORPH (a quick little intro with 한자 CC)
• Why Metamorph? Because...
...
HOW I metamorph (technical blah blah)
Conventional song/lyrics adaptation methods versus my Metamorph method.
Divergent method
Similar theme, different narrative flow
Conforming method
Same theme, similar narrative flow
Metamorph method
Same theme, same narrative flow, same emotional energy intensity
If the goal is to use the original instrumental track to make a fan cover with no reference to the original theme (seduction/breakup/social protest) then none of these applies.
If the goal is to just make another language version, Divergent method is used.
If the goal is to make a foreign language sibling version of the original, then Conforming method.
If the goal is to make a sibling version to be performed by the original singer, and to match choreography line-by-line, then my Metamorph method.
In short, Metamorph is an advanced hyper-conforming song adaptation method.
I call the process HYPERMATCH.
Conventional method only replicates structural elements.
Metamorph hypermatches all classical elements + a key human factor: original vocal energy.
An intuitive truth: what makes a VOCAL song worth adapting are more than just structural and functional elements (melodic, rhythmic, harmonic, semantic…).
Metamorph method values the original vocal delivery that breathed soul into the original song struture.
The Metamorph principal: the original vocal performance was the original animator, the soul, the dynamic "attractiveness" contributor.
Two key dynamics in the original vocal performance being transferred: emotional delivery style, sonic quality.
To sum things up, Metamorph method goes beyond narrative and syllabic sync, and tries to intuitively capture that original vocal energy
by rematching word phrasing patterns
by hypermatching phonetic rhymes of vowels and consonants, to deepen emotional resonance between the two siblings
Summary
The original goal: to sing along to Korean/Japanese voices in deep emotional sync, in full energetic resonance.
An unexpected side effect: Metamorphs are super sticky due to the hypermatched phonetics and sonic harmony. It feels familiar, like a foreign-born sibling with the same DNA. Easy to learn, easy to memorize.
The possibilities of this new intensive lyrical art are as vast as your imagination. I hope it can be as rewarding for you as it has been for me!
