Yesterday:
SWAY is an old hit by the late Dean Martin in 1954. Then Michael Buble revived it in 2003 followed by the Pussycat Dolls in 2005. There are about a dozen versions that include pop singers like, Cliff Richard, Rosemary Clooney, Bobby Rydell and Julie London.
The song was originally called QUIEN SERA and composed by Mexicans Luis Demetrio and Pablo Luiz. With English lyrics and recorded by Dean Martin it became an international hit at number 5five.
Today:
Now, a pretty young lady from Korea covers it [video above] in the best style ever to suit her generation. *Gyubin revitalises the song with her own charisma and a cute Korean accent but with that gentle swing of oomph, fresh subtlety and scat.
Today, if the singer doesn't make it within the thr3ee minute life-span of a young person's patience and listening endurance on the smart phone... that's it!
But GYUBIN did! One million hits within 2two years on YouTube. And she's only 17 with a long career ahead. Wow!
Congratulations Gyubin. I hope the Seniors who read this blog will love your version as much as I do and add more viewers to your tally.

New K-pOp singer with Dino's song SWAY. Check her video. She's fantastic! Not only sexy but has a beautiful English Korean accent to accentuate the oldie hit. COMMENTS ARE WELCOME.
ReplyDeleteA very good rendition!
ReplyDeleteThe ever successful K-Pop phenomenon is growing so rapidly, it's unbelievable. She's very versatile because it is not easy to put new heat to an old song. Congrats Gyubin. You have made it already. All the best for your future career.

ReplyDeleteAndy Young K-pop dancers can not only dance and sing. They can do catwalk and more.

ReplyDeleteMichael Lee yes, but they are also physically good looking. I guess that's also an attraction? In this brave new world we live in, it's not only the song but more the singer. Thanks for your comment Michael.

ReplyDeleteMichael Lee, I guess it's not possible but he says when he hears Pat Boone sing, his right arm holding the whiskey, become sober immediately.
Michael Lee
ReplyDeleteSome people do sing better after a glass of whiskey or any alcohol. Haha.

At her age, she should go far and has all the potential to be a top notch K-Pop singer. Good luck Gyubin. You will do very well.
