ALBUM
| NO | TRACK | ABOUT |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | 2.0 (TWO POINT O) | ‘2.0 (TWO POINT O)’, which opens the album, is a hybrid pop song featuring a dramatic contrast between intense verses and a chorus based on string orchestration. [HeraldMuse] |
| 02 | Ode To Love | The title track, ‘Ode to Love,’ is a New UK Garage-based dance-pop song that firmly showcases NCT WISH’s unique color through its refreshing rhythm and poignant melody. The lyrics convey a sincere desire to spread kindness amidst a cold world, and by adding the ambition to make the world warmer through the proposal to “sing together,” they deliver a touching emotional experience to listeners. [Newsen] |
| 03 | Sticky | The new song ‘Sticky’ is a hip-hop-based dance track that combines an upbeat yet weighty mid-tempo beat with bossanova-style guitar playing. Likening their relationship to ‘Mango Sticky Rice,’ the song uses addictive lyrics to describe a bond that is tightly and deeply intertwined despite the unusual combination of ‘mango’ and ‘rice.’ [Newsen] |
| 04 | Feel The Beat | The track ‘Feel The Beat’ is a song based on the house genre with a funky bassline and layered diverse sounds. The EDM elements that build up towards the end bring splendor and excitement to the song, and the lyrics capture the atmosphere of a free night enjoyed by becoming one with the music, following the beat that sounds like a dream. [OSEN] |
| 05 | Crush | ‘Crush’ is a dance-pop song featuring impactful drums and 808 bass added to an emotional piano melody; the lyrics express the surprise and excitement of falling in love unexpectedly, like a fox rain falling from a clear sky. [OSEN] |
| 06 | Street (2AM) | ‘Street (2AM),’ is a hip-hop song where organic guitar and a clear bassline create jazzy harmonies over a classic breakbeat. Likening the perspective to a cat roaming the city nights like an outlaw, the lyrics sensuously capture the free energy of walking through one’s own world. [OSEN] |
| 07 | Glow Up | ‘Glow Up’ is a hybrid hip-hop-based dance track that combines an old-school boom bap beat evoking 90s nostalgia with futuristic electronic sounds. [HeraldMuse] |
| 08 | Everglow | ‘Everglow’, is a pop dance song that blends dynamic sounds with NCT WISH’s signature hopeful and overwhelming emotions. Based on their solidly built confidence and conviction, the group has grown further and conveys a positive and self-assured message of becoming each other’s light even in a world filled with darkness. [HeraldMuse] |
| 09 | Don’t Say You Love Me | ‘Don’t Say You Love Me’ is an R&B pop track distinguished by its simple yet addictive melody and groovy beat. It depicts the moment a boy clumsy in love resolves to be the first to express his feelings, with a catchy hook that amplifies the tension and trembling just before the confession. [OSEN] |
| 10 | Voyage | ‘Voyage,’ is a pop ballad rooted in modern rock that harmonizes with the lyrical sounds of acoustic guitar and piano. Through lyrics promising to move steadfastly toward their dreams as long as they are together, no matter what difficulties may arise in the vast ocean, the song conveys hope and determination to fans.
