Chaeyoung's Lil Fantasy

Authenticity is the word I would use to describe this album. It feels like being a child, going to visit your best friend's house, back when smartphones and sns weren't a thing so they only way to entertain yourself was to imagine and daydream.

Avocaco is the song that takes you by the hand to bring you to her little world. The MV is great, extremely weird, like it's warning you "this is who I am, are you sure you want to come?".

Band Aid: so cozy and her voice is so quiet, like she's telling you a secret.

Shoot (Firecracker): the retro feel is so nice. I've watched the performance and I was not expecting her to dance, but the choreo is cute and it suits her a lot. The song gets better the more you listen to it. I think the lyrics want to represent what she's doing with this album: "shooting" her music from her heart for the listener to catch it, like she's saying that she's pouring her honest feelings into that and that her music was created in her own heart.

Girl: very chill track. I wonder if she's talking to herself or to another person. It seems she wants to "be the one", but she also wants to hide in a little corner.

Ribbons: a less acoustic vibe on this one. The feat brings a different energy, I lowkey wanted to sit with them while they were recording it.

Downpour: she sounds great when harmonazing with a male voice. I was not familiar with Gliico, but they did a great job. They fit each other a lot.

BF: so short but by what the lyrics say, it makes sense. Sometimes she doesn't want to meet her best friend and it's enough for her to talk to them through texts. The whole lyrics sound like a text to a friend. A short form of connection, but meaningful for the person writing it (and it hits too close to home for me).

Shadow Puppets: two people holding hands and hiding. It makes me wonder about the meaning of the song. Is her inner child hiding because she's an adult now? Is she hiding because she doesn't want to be an adult? Is she holding our hand, as if the person listening to her music is like her? Or is she holding her own hand?

My Guitar: it's the song she performed during the tour. I've never really checked the lyrics before, but to me it seems like it talks about her effort to learn playing the guitar and how it became an expression of her own emotions.

Lonely Doll Waltz: is an instrumental-only track. She included it because it was one of her first creations and it fits the cute and quirky vibe of the album. I think it was a nice addition because it tells the story of her journey as a musician (similarly to what she says in My Guitar), just like the whole album tells the story of her inner journey.

There's so much more I'd like to write about these lyrics but I don't want this post to be too long, so I'll only add the official video that includes her full album, which I consider another GREAT idea she had.
