6 Vocally-Challenging Sad Songs By Boy Groups

Not only women express their emotions very well in a song. Men are capable of doing it just as well. In K-pop, many vocalists do that when they sing songs, especially ballads. That is why we have written the boy group version of this article.

Here are some ballad songs from boy groups that are vocally hard.

SHINEE - 'Please Don't Go'

First on our list is this heart-wrenching song about someone singing to their loved one about wanting them to stay. Onew and Jonghyun were the only members that sang the song.

The song "Say Yes" is a song about a previous lover that has now long forgotten them. So, the emotions in the song are also hard to portray as you need the experience to show it.

However, it does not look like it is hard for the two members if you see them singing it.
