I need Love Belt
From my shoulders to my waist, wrap around me
On the love highway, a dangerous speed
I know, if we go like this, I’ll need an air bag
I need, if it’s like this, it’s a little dangerous
I don’t think I’ll crash, but
I’m nervous so hold me tight
Because of my selfishness, I always hurt you, but
Forgive me, I’m sorry
You’re my love belt, hold me tight
Hold me in this nervous world (please hold me)
You’re my love belt, you know I’m shaking with anxiety
Hold my hand
Please girl, you hold me now
I need you, I love you
Please girl, you’re my Love Belt
Hold me, hold me, hold me
When you’re feeling frustrated and want to get away
When you’re feeling nervous for no reason
We know, since we were born,
I feel you, propose a toast (cheers)
You don’t say it, but I feel it, just like twins
I pretend to not care, but I’m scared,
Hold me tight when I tremble
Because of my selfishness, I always hurt you, but
Forgive me, I’m sorry
You’re my love belt, hold me tight
Hold me in this nervous world (please hold me)
You’re my love belt, you know I’m shaking with anxiety
Hold my hand
Please girl, you hold me now
I need you, I love you
Please girl, you’re my Love Belt
Hold me, hold me, hold me
You’re my love belt, hold me tight
Hold me in this nervous world (please hold me)
You’re my love belt, you know I’m shaking with anxiety
Hold my hand
Lyrics written by Jonghyun | Music written by Jonghyun and WeFreaky
Notes: jonghyun opened up to fans during a mini fan meet during promotions that he wrote the lyrics to the song when he was in the hospital recovering from his car accident back in 2013. (source) he also discussed the composition process a bit here.
Hold out your hand, wrap it around my neck
A little below, massage my shoulders
At the end of a tiring day, even if the sun has already come up
I’m finally closing my eyes
I close the door to my day later than others
Playfully tickle my earlobe
Because even though we’ve been in different worlds all day
We always end the day together
Your small shoulders, your small hands
Become my cozy blanket at the end of a tiring day
You did a good job today, you worked so hard
I hope my shoulders and my thick hands
Will become cozy comfort for the end of your tiring day as well
I want to naturally sync my breathing with yours
Like water in a bathtub that wraps around you with no space left
I wanna warmly hold you without any space left
At the end of my day, filled with awkward mistakes
You, my prize, are waiting for me
Your small shoulders, your small hands
Become my cozy blanket at the end of a tiring day
You did a good job today, you worked so hard
I hope my shoulders and my thick hands
Will become cozy comfort for the end of your tiring day as well
I want to naturally sync my breathing with yours
I can’t cry all I want or even laugh all I want
At the end of a tiring day but still, if I’m next to you
Like a child, I can whine and then laugh till I run out of breath
I’m not used to seeing myself like this
You did a good job today, you worked so hard
You are my prize
(210408) @funkyjh2 (we freaky's junhyeok) (instagram story): i didn't get to see it this year but happy birthday. i miss you. / who made a birthday song like this? (source)
in another live on his instagram today, wefreaky's junhyeok revealed that the original lyrics for the chorus of "she is" were "oh shit". because the lyrics were considered "inappropriate" (and likely wouldn't have passed for single release), he changed them to say "oh, she is" instead. this can be heard in the demo that he played during another live on january 30th, which can be listened to here.

shiny foundation held their 2nd annual shiny arts festival today, december 21st, at gwanglim arts center. the festival, which was subtitled as my dear moon, focused on both the life and career of jonghyun and the primary purpose of the shiny foundation.
based on fan accounts, many of those close to and cherished by jonghyun attended, including: minho, red velvet's yeri, jinki's parents, taemin's parents, and wefreaky's sojin (jonghyun's childhood and longtime best friend and member of his composition team). the current student roster of zion school, which jonghyun attended during his teenage years, were invited to perform "end of a day" alongside okdal and a number of those that he worked with during his time spent as dj on blue night radio. the festival itself was sponsored by mbc radio, which the show aired on. okdal performed their song "thank you for the great work today". there were also performances held of "only one you need" and a percussion rendition of "hallelujah".
messages were sent in for the festival by a taemin, taeyeon, iu, soran's go young bae, coffee boy and shinkai makoto. those who were able to attend the festival have stated that it was "intimate and raw", and that it felt as if there was more of jonghyun included in this festival compared to the first: more of his voice, more of his lyrics, more images and videos of him, more of his "laughter". thank you, shiny foundation.
