"Wedding Dress" by Taeyang

So even though "Wedding Dress" by korean singer Taeyang (Big Bang) is more of a vocally focused song (versus a piano solo), I enjoyed playing the piece b/c I really like the melody throughout the piece, especially the piano solo at the beginning and the brief interlude towards the end with the, albeit bittersweet (b/c of the music video storyline >.<)but classic piano melody that signals the entrance of the bride at weddings ^^; it was interesting to observe the contrast this light tune created (esp. since it wasn't part of the melody of the rest of the song) and how it might be contrasting his outer appearance (the calm, composed, and perhaps looking a bit melancholy, best friend of the special couple whom they cheerfully asked to play for them at their wedding) with his true inner feelings (bitterness, hopelessness, heartbroken).

Anyway, though it was fun to play, and I'd really like to upload a piano cover of it to youtube, I could definitely use some more practice (it's so easy for your fingers to start "stumbling" in front of the camera T_T) so for now this bittersweet mv of the song will have to suffice (with eng. subs too! :D)
