Villain 빌런 (Stella Jang) English Cover [nmngh]

100k edit: If for some reason you wanted to listen to this cover on loop for an hour, the 1-hour version is now on my channel here: https://youtu.be/ckHYgw2pzuU !! thank you for listening to my cover so much 🙇🏻‍♂️

I really like this song but I had such a terrible time recording it, all my equipment had issues and my voice was super inconsistent, I'm so glad this video is done!

This song is so whimsical and very theatrical, it really sounds like a character song to me. Reminds me of MAMAMOO "Piano Man" and IU's "Twenty-three", but more minimalist, in a good way! I appreciate the message of the song, at least how I interpret it. People often can't be summarized as "good" or "bad", and a lot of people who pretend to be heroes on the good side end up exposed for villainy.

Here's the lyrics! As usual, please feel free to use these in your own cover, please just credit me and link back to this video if you do.

English lyrics:

[refrain]
we all pretend to be the heroes on the good side

[verse 1]
some things are black and you’re sure
some things are white and you’re sure
you never learned to see the world in color

you’re such a really good man
however, that guy is bad
your boring world is really achromatic

[prechorus]
so many shades of gray,
oh how could you have lived so long and still not know, oh
good easily fades away so don’t be so inclined to like me, no

[chorus 1]
because I’m a villain, why pretend that it isn’t true? didn’t realize what an awful little devil I could be, so what?you’re a villain, why pretend that it isn’t you
it’s nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, because

[postchorus]
I’m killing someone, maybe you’re killing someone, maybe
I’m killing you, maybe
you’re killing me, maybe

[refrain]
we all pretend to be the heroes on the good side
but what if we’re the villains on the other?

[verse 2]
am I good, am I bad? ay
are you good, are you bad? ay
someone that I love unconditionally is treated like a dog somewhere else, say
are we good, are we bad? ay
what is good, what is bad? ay
someone that you hate unconditionally is the child of a loving family, say

[prechorus]
so many shades of gray,
oh how could you have lived so long and still not know, oh
good easily fades away so don’t be so inclined to like me, no

[chorus 1]
because, 1,2, I’m a villain, why pretend that it isn’t true?
didn’t realize what an awful little devil I could be, so what?
you’re a villain, why pretend that it isn’t you?
it’s nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, because

[chorus 2]
all villains, why pretend that it isn’t true?
they don’t know about the awful little devils acting up, so what?
we’re all villains, (ooohhh) couldn’t be only me and you
just look at all the demons coming out that we forgot

[postchorus]
I’m killing someone, maybe you’re killing someone, maybe
I’m killing you, maybe
you’re killing me, maybe

[refrain]
we all pretend to be the heroes on the good side
but what if we’re the villains on the other?
we all pretend to be the heroes on the good side
but what if we’re the villains on the other?

we all pretend to be the heroes on the good side
