Infinite - BTD (Before The Dawn) (English version/rendition)

Yayyy ^^

First English version of 2011! I was quite excited when I heard this song.. not only because I loved the song and the dance, but because I knew "ahh.. this song could definitely work with English lyrics!". And so here we are =]

The raps for this song were the hardest parts to write because the flow and rhythm of the Korean lyrics weren't really the same as typical English raps so it was hard finding words that would fit.. anyway, this is what I ended up with haha.. hope you enjoy it!

Cube Entertainment Global Audition 2011 (updated)

Happy 2011 my lovelies!

Cube Entertainment is holding a YouTube audition via Koreaboo. The details are extensive so I'll link you from here..

Thank you to my friend Sandra for letting me know about the audition!

So about my audition clip. I pondered about which song to do.. Initially I was going to sing G.O.D's .길 (Road), and then switched to 나윤권의 기대 (Na Yoon Kwon - Expectation) and then I decided they didn't really showcase what I wanted them to.

I ended up going with an English song from the early 80's - Open Arms originally done by Journey. Why did I choose this song? Not really sure why.. but I love singing it lol. I love singing the G.O.D song too but I dunno.. just felt like doing this one.

The audition details seem to place emphasis on singing live without any post-production. So no adding reverb. I dunno if adding reverb counts, but I thought I'd leave it out just to be safe. And to prove that I wasn't lipsyncing, I chose not to use my condenser mic, and just use the plain old digital camera mic.. not that it would have really made a difference (maybe I was just being lazy haha).

Anyway, again, this preliminary audition is all based on views and votes and shares, although they say they will watch all the entries just in case. So please, watch my audition clip, like it on YouTube (if you liked it) and share it with your friends and family ^^

Thank you for your continued support!!
