SHINee KEY, Releasing 2nd Mini-album ‘Good & Great’ on September 11th!

Delivering 6 Songs of Various Genres, Including Single ‘Good & Great’!

Unfolding More Colorful Music World of the ‘All-round Cheat-Key’!

The ‘All-round Cheat-Key’ SHINee KEY (SM Entertainment) returns with the second mini-album ‘Good & Great’ on September 11th.

Comprising six songs of various genres, including the single 'Good & Great' of the same name, 'Can't Say Goodbye,' 'Intoxicating,' 'Live Without You,' 'CoolAs,' and 'Mirror, Mirror,' this album is expected to unfold a more colorful world of music.

In particular, as much as KEY received lots of love with music and concepts full of his charms, presenting a high-quality 'Retro Trilogy' with the first mini-album 'BAD LOVE,' the second regular album 'Gasoline' and the repackage 'Killer,' expectations are grown around the new side of him he will show through this album.

‘Good & Great’ - The single KEY proudly presents! A song for every worker in the world!

The single 'Good & Great' is a pop dance song that unrolls around the rhythmic piano. With an appealing mixture of an easy-to-sing-along melody and unique vocals, the lyrics not only carry KEY's confidence in himself and what he does but also arouse sympathy, through witty expressions, from workers in the world.

'Can't Say Goodbye' is a retro pop song about the pain people get to feel when they cannot leave their loved ones. Light guitar strokes, vintage synthesizer sound, groovy slap bass, and drums with attacks maximize a funky mood. 'Intoxicating' is an up-tempo house pop song that heightens the fun of listening with lyrics that express the instinct of falling in love with sensual expressions and dynamic vocal melodies.

'Live Without You' is a pop dance song that compares erasing the memories of someone to drinking strong liquor. 'CoolAs' is an electro dance song with a chilling mood with KEY’s very own cynical vocals and the lyrics that express his confident and cool charms.

In addition, the album also contains 'Mirror, Mirror,' an R&B song for which KEY wrote the lyrics himself. It gives a deep impression by rendering various emotions he feels while looking at himself in the mirror in his calm and serene vocals. With these six songs, the album is expected to receive great responses from music fans.[1]
