This song is a solo by Jonghyun of SHINee. I would write more, but I just spent 5 hours to build a house for "Habitat for Humanity", so I'm kinda exhausted. This song is beautiful and if you don't like it then you don't appreciate good music. I mean, seriously.

Hit song from 2NE1, the girl group that's taking over the music charts
Sigh. First week of being a senior. I was so tired today it was ridiculous. After I post this I plan to go take a NICE. LONG. NAP.

Addicted
I've known about SHINee for a pretty long time (Since their debut last year). And At first I didn't really like this song that much, but LORD GOOD GOD. Juliette has me hooked. I've listened to it for like, 5 hours straight. NO. JOKE.
My favorite part is 2:04-2:26 Especially Jonghyun's long note
TT-TT I LOVE ASIAN MUSIC.
Of course, Katie and I laugh about Onew because he's the oldest, and we have an inside joke about him. We even call him "wrinkly." We point to him and yell "WRINKLY!!" So yeah.
We are also sick perverts. We paired Wrinkly Onew with Blessed Simon (sea- moan) Maria de Guadalupe. I'm not telling you who he is, and I don't think anyone will even guess it. If you want to know, go seek help. Poor Wrinkly and Blessed Simon.
NONE OF THESE SONGS ARE MINE@ THEY BELONG TO SHINEE AND THEIR PRODUCING COMPANY!
But this song HOOKED me on them. LOVE IT. Especially the chorus. SO BEAUTIFUL.
Onew (Wrinkly) is on the left (leader) and Jonghyun is on the right (main vocals).
[Onew] Last night in my dreams, you drew close to me
Your whispered words, your hair that brushed against my face
[Jonghyun] When I woke up from my dream, it was all too clear
That your presence was nothing but a dream
The tears in my eyes told me
[Jonghyun&Onew] You can’t, you can’t, don’t leave like this
Please just one more time, one more time, hold me in your arms again
[Jonghyun] The next time I close my eyes to meet you
Hold me as I stay still in that spot
[Jonghyun]Even when I open my eyes, only your figure is clear
That your presence was nothing but a dream
The sadness reflected in my tears told me
[Onew&Jonghyun]You can’t, you can’t, don’t leave like this
Please just one more time, one more time, hold me in your arms again
[Onew] The next time I close my eyes to meet you
Hold me as I stay still in that spot
[Jonghyun] I try and even though I try
I insist, I insist
Come back to me
[Jonghyun&Onew]You can’t, you can’t, don’t leave like this
Please just one more time, one more time, hold me in your arms again
[Onew] The next time I close my eyes to meet you
Hold me as I stay still in that spot
Also this song sung by Jonghyun. I love how they all just listen to him. SIGH.
