New album of Big Bang!

Korean pop boy group, Big Bang came back and released new album "M" on May 1, 2015. It is remarked as the first comeback for them after a three-year absence, which is also their first single album in nine years. The amazing two title songs are "Loser" and "Bae Bae".

This album's music is so delicately organized and rhythmical so that it is easy to sing along. Especially, the song called "Bae Bae" is my personal favorite. Both songs are very trendy and we all can see that five boys put a lot of effort on it.

Big Bang fans have been waiting for this for so long time. Each members was busy on his own during their absence. They were on advertisements, in fashion business, in Japan, and more. 

The leader of the group, G-Dragon revealed during the second concert of the MADE 2015 World Tour that he had a slump while making this album. He said, "In all honesty, I was in a slump that wasn’t a normal slump. I worried a lot. The group has grown due to all the fans, so I unknowingly felt a heavy burden because it’s been a long time since we released an album. I worried a lot because of this, but we worked well, as we continued." he added, "I thought to myself that I just need to work. We got together frequently and worked."

FYI, there are two different versions of the album which one contains only CD and Booklet (24p) while the other one contains CD, Booklet (24p) + Special kit (Puzzle ticket, photo card and limited photo card).

Kawaranai Mono

'The Girl Who Leapt Through Time' was one of the most famous Japanese animated movies at that time. the main story line is about a girl who gains the ability to go through time. As the title may say, this talks about the importance of time and how you spend it. The theme song (OST) of this movie was Kawaranai Mono which can be directly translated as 'things that does not change' or 'unchanging things'.

Original / Romaji Lyrics	English Translation
kaerimichi fuzakete aruita wake mo naku kimi wo okoraseta ironna kimi no kao wo mitakattanda	We joked around on our way home. I made you angry for no reason. I guess I just wanted to see your different sides.
ookina hitomi ga nakisou na koe ga ima mo boku no mune wo shimetsukeru surechigau hito no naka de kimi wo oikaketa	Your large eyes, your trembling voice, Even now they are close by my heart. In the crowd of strangers, I ran after you.
kawaranai mono sagashiteita ano hi no kimi wo wasure wa shinai toki wo koeteku omoi ga aru boku wa ima sugu kimi ni aitai	I was searching for the things that never change. I will never forget how you were on that day. These feelings I have transcend time. I just want to meet you now.
gaitou ni burasageta omoi itsumo kimi ni watasenakatta yoru wa bokutachi wo toozakete-itta ne	These feelings upon which the street lights shine, I could never manage to let you have them. The nights brought us further away from each other.
mienai kokoro de uso tsuita koe ga ima mo boku no mune ni hibiteiru samayou toki no naka de kimi to koi wo shita	The lie you told through your opaque heart, Even now it continues to resonate within me. Uncertain of our future, you and I fell in love.
kawaranai mono sagashiteita ano hi mitsuketa shiranai basho e kimi wo futari de yukeru no nara boku wa nando mo umarekawareru	I was searching for the things that never change. The unfamiliar place we found on that day, If the two of us can go there together again, I will be reborn as many times as it takes.
katachi nai mono dakishimeteta kowareru oto mo kikoenai mama kimi to aruita onaji michi ni ima mo akari wa terashi-tsudzukeru	As I embrace the things that have no shape, I fail to hear the breaking sound. On the same path that we walked together, Even now the light continues to shine.
kawaranai mono sagashiteita ano hi no kimi wo wasure wa shinai toki wo koeteku omoi ga aru boku wa ima sugu kimi ni aitai	I was searching for the things that never change. I will never forget how you were on that day. These feelings I have transcend time. I just want to meet you now.
boku wa ima sugu kimi ni aitai	I just want to meet you now.

People who saw this movie (which also includes me) can remind of the movie right away when this music is turned on. That's how this music was so influential during the movie itself. For me this is a music that I will never forget for it is one of the top ten musics I've liked the best until now.
