lies - gdragon feat. big bang



(gd, you talented bastard)
this video has a lot to it than just the music, flashing lights, and korean superstars.
when gdragon wrote this song he intended to use it as his breakthrough solo song. however, upon giving the song to yg, he was told that the song would be better if big bang used it as a group. instead of being some stuck up diva bitch, he gave up the song. because of this song big bang sky-rocketed. gd introduced a new concept of big bang and let them mature musically. i look up to gd. not only is he an amazing leader, but he is so selfless. sure, he has crazy ass style and sometimes his concepts make me question his sanity, but watching this video shows that gd is a dynamic person. he was finally able to perform lies as a solo, but instead of hogging the stage all to himself, he allowed big bang to come out and sing with him and he was genuinely happy about it. i know that i sound stupid talking about some celebrity that i don't even know, but i do look up to gd. there's the one part in the video where him and taeyang stand together and sing. i want to have a friendship like that. because i have no doubt in my mind that when gd was giving up lies as a solo project, he probably thought of bae (and the other members as well). he saw that he was able to help others more than himself.
