Band Lucy has delivered a message of hope and courage to the youth through their new release. Lucy comeback officially took place today at 6 PM KST as they released their eighth single, ‘Again!’, across various online music platforms. This track is designed to inspire young people with the courage to move forward once more, further expanding Lucy’s signature youth narrative.
Through ‘Again!’, Lucy captures the inner turmoil, swaying hearts, and deep introspection born amidst imperfection. The song offers empathy and comfort to those who stumble while clashing with the world, regret passing time, and yet continue to dream and push forward.
‘Again!’ blends intense beats and lyrical moods to portray the internal emotional turbulence triggered by the coldness of the world. The bright rhythm contrasts sharply with lyrics about relentlessly charging forward against a harsh reality, as if indifferently shining light upon an unforgiving world. Overall, the emotional line carries a hopeful and overwhelming resonance.
The swirling violin in the bridge evokes a massive wave blocking the path, while the surging guitar and bass solos violently shake inner emotions like a typhoon. In particular, Lucy heightened immersion by dynamically moving between intense, powerful vibes and lyrical sensibilities to three-dimensionally express this tumultuous inner state. Cho Won-sang participated in the lyric writing, composition, and arrangement, clearly infusing the track with Lucy’s distinct musical color.
Cho Won-sang explained, ‘To musically express the wild, surging inner emotions in ‘Again!’, we added string orchestration to the intensely driving instrumental parts to maximize the energy. We also arranged the violin melody so listeners can feel as if a giant wave is crashing toward them.’
"Even if the swallowed voices trying to spread in between reach where they will someday find, the dream we wanted, the wind we simply forgot, my greed that could become anything, is already looking at it. When the uttered sounds that might not come again become a gap and call me out for once, please recognize it when the countless dots I attached to the path I wished for sparkle."
This single also includes the B-side track ‘To You Who Might Be Okay’, which expresses regret over irreversible time. The poignant violin melody and heartwarming drum harmony create a rich emotional depth, offering a charm distinct from ‘Again!’.
