Lirik Lagu 'Almost', Single Kolaborasi Bradley Simpson bersama ATEEZ

Dalam dunia musik yang sering kali diwarnai kolaborasi berdasarkan strategi pasar, sangat jarang kita menyaksikan dua musisi ternama dari dua belahan dunia berbeda bergabung karena pertemuan yang tidak disengaja.
Namun, inilah yang terjadi pada Bradley Simpson secara tidak terduga menjalin koneksi kreatif dengan Hongjoong, salah satu personel dari grup K-Pop ternama ATEEZ.
Pertemuan ini membuahkan kolaborasi dalam bentuk versi terbaru dari salah satu lagu andalan di album tersebut, yakni Almost.
Dalam versi barunya, Hongjoong memberikan warna dan energi yang berbeda dengan menyusun ulang bagian verse kedua menggunakan lirik berbahasa Korea, sekaligus memperkaya komposisi lagu lewat harmoni vokal khasnya yang menyatu dengan topline milik Bradley.
Kolaborasi ini menjadi pertemuan lintas budaya yang terasa organik, segar, dan menarik perhatian penggemar dari kedua belah pihak.
Lirik Lagu Almost - Bradley Simpson & ATEEZ
I got the meal, you spilt your wine
The restaurant's closing, lost track of time
Back at your house now, you say, "It's a mess"
But, it's just a stopgap, I take off your dress
We got close, started to feel
Only to leave soon as it's real
We've got so much in common, including the issues
I'll pull away 'cause I know that I'll miss you
That's when it hits me, so suddenly
You were almost the best thing that happened to me
I could pull the car over, got nowhere to be
You could say how you feel, but, you chose something mean
That's when it hits me, so suddenly
You w?re almost the best thing that happ?ned to me
I'm in New York, yeah (Hoo-hoo-hoo)
I just repeat this song, yeah (Hoo-hoo-hoo)
? ???? ? ??? ?? ??? ?? ? ??? ??, yeah (Hey)
We've got so much in common, including the issues (Where you are)
I'll pull away 'cause I know that I'll miss you (Miss you, ah)
That's when it hits me, so suddenly
You were almost the best thing that happened to me
I could pull the car over, got nowhere to be (Oh)
You could say how you feel, but, you chose something mean (You could be my last
That's when it hits me, so suddenly
You were almost the best thing that happened to me
You can say how you feel (Ah-ah) (I don't really get it)
But, you chose something mean (Ah-ah)
Yeah, yeah (Ah-ah)
[Outro: Hongjoong, Bradley Simpson, Bradley Simpson & Hongjoong]
You come up to 305 'cause you hate the noise
It eats into my lonely nights, hearing your voice
I wonder if we really tried, you'd never be
Almost the best thing that happened to me
