Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello, guys.
Anything happen in your life recently?
I'm planning to make a cover album.
Okay.
And I wanted to ask you, because you know manymusics, many songs, right?
Do you have any songs that you think that fit me?
Or you think that go nice with me, like my voice,my, I don't know, my personality or anything.
Well, okay. You know, when I first heard thatquestion, I'm like, well, anything can be
interesting, right?
Like, yeah, it can be.
Like going for something really, really random.
Yeah.
Well, that's the great art of, you know, makingcover music is like, you know.
Yes, true.
Like a classic, maybe like a country song artistgoing for K-pop.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's interesting, right?
So like, the first thing that came into my mindwas like, well, I mean, anything could end up
really interesting.
But I guess the question you're asking, you'remore looking for, you know, something that would
naturally fit you.
Yeah, yeah.
But it doesn't have to be.
So those things are one of the options, like K-popsongs.
I don't know.
Like really random ones.
But, you know, you have many songs, right?
You have many K-pop songs.
But I want something that can be interesting withmy voice.
Oh, okay.
So it can be very different.
It can be like very, I don't know, like verysimilar.
Huh.
That's interesting.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Huh.
Let me check.
Yeah.
Thank you.
But it needs to be.
Okay, English?
No.
It doesn't have to be written in English, but likesomething that.
It's categorized in yoga?
Yes, yes, yes.
So I can't give you like a K-pop song?
If it's in like, for example, like Billboard USchart.
I see.
Then that's good.
I see.
Any language.
I gotcha.
Yeah.
All right.
Hmm.
Can be.
Okay.
How about.
Way too popular, but.
Yeah.
Sabrina Carpenter.
Oh.
Hmm.
Which one?
One of the most popular is Espresso.
Espresso, yeah.
Uh-huh.
Other ones could be like.
03:00
Okay, I put it in the list.
Okay.
Yeah, Espresso, please, please, please.
Uh-huh.
I don't think songs like Manchild is good for you.
Uh-huh.
Because of the.
The lyrics.
Lyrics, yeah.
Hmm.
Yeah, nice choices.
Yeah.
I mean, those ones are, you know, not the kind ofsongs that I would choose.
Okay, okay.
Naturally, so.
Very nice.
I found one that would not fit you, definitely.
Okay.
Jenny, Jenny's, you know that song goes Jenny,Jenny, Jenny.
That would be funny if you covered it.
That would be very funny.
But you know the song, right?
Yes.
Blackpink, Jenny.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I'm not Jenny.
Right.
Yeah, that would be very, very interesting.
That would be interesting.
That would be very interesting.
That would be funny.
No, you would be very funny.
Yeah.
And I make some kind of, I don't know, like copymusic video things.
Oh, yeah.
