1. NEW SHOES
This track is from her 2013 album CHAT-SHIRE. This album was proposed as the best vocal performances female and the year's MAMA Songs of the Year.
"Hello, did you wait long?
Are you tired?
I run and I run and I run and I run
I'm feeling perfect right now
No more thoughts that make me sullen
On enamel flat shoes, ttadadak
Wearing pointy red shoes, ttogak
Go to the front of a tall mirror
Spin softly on one wheel"
2. Glasses
Also from the CHAT-SHIRE album, this song contains a strong sound of medium speed combining with some Latin influence.
"Still, I don't want to wear glasses
Even if I open my eyes the entire day
I'm busy looking at all the things
That are so clear to see
I'm already tired from everything
I don't need to see every small, black thought
I'm already tired from everything
I don't need to read all the fine print"
3. Secret Garden
This song was released in 2017 through her album A Flower Bookmark 2. This is also a remix version of Lee Sangeun's original hit.
"Feels like I've been born again
After I met you
From the moment you accepted
My pitiful heart
Day by day, things will get better
Now that you're watching over me
I must have strength, I must be happy
Like a flower that bloomed late"
4. Black Out
This track comes from her 2017 album Palette. In contrast to her usual vibrant and colorful sound, this song offers a more funky edgy feel.
"Let go, I'm perfectly fine, I'm good
I don't need to go home
I can even recite the times table
Seven times seven is forty nine?
I know you don't believe me
(Nothing special)
I'm just in a good mood
(Something special)
I'm fine, I swear
You take care of yourself
Oh my, those two are kissing
Who cares, let them
Go hug anyone
(Nothing special)
I'm just in a good mood
(Something special)"
5. Heart
This track was produced by the IU herself and launched in 2015. This track has also been used in the drama The Producers as the official soundtrack.
"It's alright if you don't know
Or if you don't find me
It's just that small light that won't go out
Is twinkling and living right here
It lives forever
I can't take my eyes off of you
So all day, my eyes hurt
Feeling sad
Is because of you"
6. Knees
This track is part of the 2015 IU CHAT-SHIRE album and concerns people who can not sleep during the night due to their need for friendship and comfort. IU confirmed that she wrote this song once one night when she couldn't sleep.
"If I lie down on your knee
Brush my hair
Like when I was young
If I fall asleep lightly from your nice touch
Just let me stay for a moment
Don't wake me up,
I'm going to sleep tight"
