‘Eyes, Nose, Lips’ Tops Weekly Charts for 4 Consecutive Weeks

Taeyang’s ‘Eyes, Nose, Lips’ once again topped the updated weekly chart (trom June 30 to July 6) of Korea’s largest music site Melon.

The song unveiled for the first time on June 5 became the runner up in the first week of its release (June 2 to 8), but soon climbed up to the top in the following week (June 9 to 15) and has been maintaining the position until today. In the morning of July 7, the song still ranks at #1—for 32 days since the release—showcasing the power of music that comes from his heart.

This is especially remarkable as the #1 song frequently changes every time a new song is released.

“Eyes, Nose, Lips” is a song written by Taeyang that conveys his own story, creating harmony between a simple piano melody and Taeyang’s sentimental voice. Taeyang’s new attempt to eliminate all dynamic performances he had been known for and focus just on his vocal talents was certainly well received by the fans. He was also triple crowned on SBS’s Inkigayo, while also topping charts from different music programs.

Taeyang is gearing up for his upcoming solo debut and tour concert in Japan next month. As soon as he releases his Japanese album on August 13, he will travel around 6 cities for 13 concerts as part of his first solo tour “SOL JAPAN TOUR 2014” (working title).
