the meaning behind IU's song, You and I

You and I –IU

Hi there my dear readers.. :D

I had been desperate to make an article about songs lately, and now the song that I will observe is one of the song from a cute  korean singer, IU. I really like this song, the music, the melody.. oh well, I like all IU’s songs actually.. =))

So, for the start, today I will explain about one of IU’s songs, You and I. For you who never heard this song will think that I must be one of those girl who is falling in love, right? But really, don’t ever judge a book by its cover, or in this case a song by its title.

Anyway, yes.. this song is about romance. Yes, this song is about a girl with a boy. Yes, it’s about love. But not the fluffy one. Honestly, at first I kinda got fooled by the song. I thought since the title is “You and I” then it must be a song about a typical love song that all happy and fluffy, sweets. A story about meetings and dates and married... especially when I heard the song from my friend’s MP3.

But then, my curiousity is getting on me when I watch the video accidently on my TV. It has dance, sure it is. But the scenario just different from what I thought. So I’m searching for the Lyrics in English Version and made a conclusion that my thought about this song is totally wrong THIS WHOLE TIME! Here is my analysis on the lyric that I got by the way:

Shady Dark Memorials English Version

Shady Dark Memorials

From moonlight rose short stories book

Writer: Aulia Larasati

Translated to English by: Aulia Larasati

“Mavios!” a hoarse shout crocked the silence on the walls of an old castle. In a blink of an eye, a tall man with green hair stood at the side of the person who just shouted. “ Mavios, ready to serve sir.” the man said with soft voice while bent down to his master respectly. The man who called him sat on a throne, looking upon the night sky through out glassy ceiling above. “Look at the moon!” ordered the master. The green hair man glanced upon the moon at the top of them for a moment. “I can see it, sir. Soon, the moon will reach its full darkness. I presume, it will occure in three more days.” Said Mavios while looked at his master.
