Aurora Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Had a few ideas when I went to sleep last night. Still the same concept, just... expanded upon. And yeah, scrapping that title. Intrigued to see if I can pull this off. On 5/19/2021 at 8:00 AM, JonginBey said: A moment most pleasing to my career.

Aurora Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 I finished my song yesterday but procrastinated for the rest of it and just need to write my commentary section.

JonginBey Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) @JonginBey sat down with Billboard to discuss his upcoming, comeback single, one of the odd things he finds himself dealing with when writing, and much more. "This might sound a little unusual, or maybe it's not, but because I mainly listen to K-Pop, when trying to write a song, the first thing that comes to my mind is Korean words [laughs]. English is definitely my primary language, and my Korean skills are still at a very basic level, but English sometimes sounds foreign to me when it comes to music. I usually have to force myself out of that mindset when writing a song." "My upcoming song is a continuation of a song I wrote during Song of the Season 2. It's called Iridescence, and it was the second song I wrote for that season. It was basically about this fictitious world I created called Iridescence. It was meant to be the "greener side of the grass,' per se. A place where these two lovers could run to after one of them dealt with so much agony back in their hometown. In my upcoming single, Ruins, part of the story is told differently. You discover things aren't as simple as A and B, and maybe only one of us will make it to Iridescence."

It was a lot of fun to write after all ? Reveal hidden contents MISERY NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE Winter nights, velvet skirts and neon souls, Laughing in a taxi to the city, Starry eyes, getting lost within this dream, Fingers interlocked, so discreetly Though the masks they fell when the facades showed, I’m still here for curtain close, Proof that misery never goes out of style There’s three sides to this heartache, But I’m the one who’s scarred Cause you never did stop playing With my naive heart Does he wrap his arms around you, And does it ever fill that void? Cause I’d bet that you’re still missing, My cold, dead, naive heart. Stolen stares, as his lips caress your neck, Envy circles all around me, Pull away, darkened eyes fall down to yours Glitter stains your skin from teardrops Though the masks they fell when the facades showed, Still can’t believe he’s the one you chose, Proof that misery never goes out of style There’s three sides to this heartache, But I’m the one who’s scarred Cause you never did stop playing With my naive heart Does he wrap his arms around you, And does it ever fill that void? Cause I’d bet you you’re still missing, My cold, dead, naive heart. Maybe I have a death wish Or maybe it’s for you Maybe I want you dead and gone, Maybe that’s the truth Oh who am I kidding? I’d still storm right up to the gates of hell, Just to bring you flowers There’s three sides to this heartache, But I’m the one who’s scarred Cause you never did stop playing With my naive heart Does he wrap his arms around you, And does it ever fill that void? Cause I’d bet you you’re still missing, My cold, dead, naive heart There’s three sides to this heartache, But I’m the one who’s scarred Cause you never did stop playing With my naive heart Does he wrap his arms around you, And does it ever fill that void? Cause I’d bet you you’re still missing, My cold, bloody naive heart I might as well share the Soundcloud for it too. I can't sing for s☆☆☆ but I just had fun with it ? No production or anything just a warning ? https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/DBB2d I love this. If you find yourself ever recording this officially, please let me know

Aurora Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Just had a very productive writing session. For those who have seen or maybe even read my "blog posts", I wrote a collection of songs now titled 'Scrapbook: Recycled' between 2019-2020 during Song of the Season 1-3. I decided to compile all of these songs together since 'scrapbook' was the working title for my project before I dropped out in SOTS1, and I had just enough material between the three seasons for a full "project" of sorts. Some aspects were incomplete though, so I knew I'd have to complete those before "publishing" them as I did with my previous album of songs from PH11, 'Mine'. But obviously we're mid-season, and I didn't want to prioritise that over my actual submissions. Yesterday after submitting my latest entry, "2", I completed artworks for two songs that were missing them from my final two rounds of SOTS1, 'tbh i don't think about u (much) anymore' and 'Shapeless', thanks to the retrieval of some old Photoshop content I thought I had lost. I also sat down yesterday and tried to complete one of my two "lost" songs, 'Scrapbook', which was essentially just missing a verse and a bridge after some arrangement adjustments. I re-read the material and my concept notes from back in 2019, but was struggling to make much headway and only completed the verse. Today not only did I fix up that verse into something I liked much better, I completed that song's bridge, and just now I completed the other "lost" track from those sessions, '920 Days'. This is especially exciting for me since I pretty much only had 3/4 of a chorus written down and didn't leave myself any concept notes before moving onto my next song. I ended up pinching a couplet from another song I wrote a few days later that season (which this song is actually the precursor of) as a post-chorus for this song, finished the chorus, and wrote two new verses and a bridge which I honestly feel have just been dormant inside of me for two years and it feels so... important to finally have them down. I'll probably go over the whole thing again tomorrow and maybe tighten some things up, but it's so satisfying finally completing a "project" that has essentially been almost two years and four seasons in the making.

I love PH/SOTS/whatever name might come next.
