For A Person Like Me, You're The Answer
“You’re the answer to a person
like me, even when I talk too harshly, even when I don’t make any sense. You’re
the answer to a person like me, even though I can’t explain, that’s how I feel
inside. Should I just die?” –Leessang feat. Hareem, You’re The Answer To A Guy Like Me
[translated lyrics]
Duo hip hop asal Korea Selatan, Leessang, merilis studio album ketujuh mereka yang bertajuk “Asura Balbalta” pada tanggal 25 Agustus 2011. Title track dari album ini adalah sebuah lagu berjudul “You’re The Answer To A Guy Like Me”, menampilkan solois Hareem. Album dan lagu ini meledak di pasaran, meroketkan popularitas Leessang dan mengukuhkan posisi mereka sebagai musisi hip hop berkualitas yang patut diperhitungkan dalam industri musik Korea Selatan. Hanya berselang beberapa jam saja setelah perilisannya secara digital, seluruh lagu dalam album ini (literally!) merajai posisi 10 besar berbagai real-time charts selama dua hari berturut-turut sejak perilisannya. Berdasarkan platform musik digital terkemuka di Korea Selatan, Melon, “Asura Balbalta” menjadi album paling populer yang dirilis sepanjang tahun 2011, dengan total 25 kali bertahan dalam posisi puncak tangga lagu. Let’s meet the explosive title track of this album, “You’re The Answer To A Guy Like Me”.
“You’re The Answer To A Guy Like Me” tells about a man’s sincere and
lonely heart after a break-up. Even
though they have a rough relationship, that
woman is everything that he has. After
that painful separation, he realizes
that she is the only answer to a man like him, so he begs her to comeback. Lirik lagu ini menggambarkan realitas
hubungan yang dialami oleh sepasang pria dan wanita dalam rentang waktu yang
lama. Dalam waktu tersebut, sebuah hubungan tentunya diwarnai dengan berbagai
perselisihan dan pertengkaran, yang mana sanggup mendewasakan seseorang dalam
prosesnya. “We dated for a year and I
hated myself for doing so many bad things.” Bahkan terkadang ketika mereka
memilih perpisahan pada akhirnya, hal itu justru menjadi pembuka hati mereka
untuk menyadari bahwa mereka telah kehilangan sesuatu yang sebenarnya paling
berarti bagi mereka. “You’re crying too
because you still love me. I’m on my knees because I’m sorry. That’s why I hold
onto you. I won’t give any pathetic excuses or elaborate promises, just please
don’t go away.” Hubungan adalah sebuah negosiasi, sebuah ruang kesadaran
untuk memahami pasangan kita. Menemukan seseorang yang dapat menerima kita apa
adanya tidaklah mudah, apalagi ketika seseorang tersebut adalah sosok yang
sanggup membuat diri kita menjadi pibadi yang lebih baik dalam prosesnya. When we finally find that person, don’t let go. Despite of those fights and arguments, we would still understand each other and love passionately, that’s what the real relationship is. “Even married couples in their eighties have
fight and argue all the time. But they still love each other and live well to
this day, you mean the same for me.”
Membukukan sebuah rekor baru dengan meraih posisi teratas hanya dalam waktu satu jam saja setelah perilisannya, album “Asura Balbalta” berhasil membawa Leessang ke level yang lebih tinggi, mengingat waktu perilisannya yang berdekatan dengan comeback beberapa grup terkemuka seperti SNSD dan Wonder Girls. Album ini berhasil meraih perfect all-kill, begitu pula dengan lead single “You’re The Answer To A Guy Like Me” yang merajai berbagai tangga lagu digital seperti Mnet, Cyworld, Naver, Daum, Soribada, Olleh, dan lain sebagainya. Kekuatan lagu hip hop R n’ B ini terletak pada melodinya yang sensual khas Leessang, dengan dibalut musik orkestra, serta irama piano dan harmonika yang indah menyayat hati. Gil’s suave vocal and
“Only if you’re next to me, I have
strength to live. You know this so please come back. Only if you’re by my side,
it’s perfect. You know this so please come back.” –Leessang feat.
