Super Junior D&E 606 Tracklist

“GGB”

“GGB” is a pop dance song with a summer disco vibe. It’s a fresh and unique tune, perfected with upbeat sounds and guitar rhythm. The vibes, melody, and choreography of the music video really suit Super Junior-D&E.

“ROSE”

“ROSE” is a song written and composed by Donghae. With the music video portraying the two sides of this song, Donghae tries to collect all of his thoughts, including the memories and the agony and is more on the calm side.

However, Eunhyuk seems to be going through the opposite experience and is more upset, frustrated, and emotional. Ironically, it’s a beautiful break-up song accompanied by guitar sounds. The song is about the imminent separation and the end of a relationship. Most notably, both Donghae and Enhyuk blend their voices flawlessly.

“Hang Over”

Another bop song from the duo! Donghae stated, “Let’s go all out today.” This is a hangover vibe that suggests enjoying life to the fullest without worrying about anything. D&E chose the song because they thought it was interesting and since it was a new style for them.

“Twisted”

“Twisted” is based on the Afrobeat rhythm. According to Eunhyuk, they made a great effort to deliver mature vocals, as the lyrics portray a mix of reality and dreams.

“New Balance”

The idea of venturing into the world is expressed by the term “New Balance.” The most addictive part of the song is the chorus, which combines the sweet voices of Donghae and Eunhyuk. It is exciting, fast-paced, and has a great beat. 

“Missing Pieces”

Their heavenly vocals are highlighted by the sounds of the song, which captivate and make you want to listen to it repeatedly. Even though the music feels upbeat, the lyrics tell a depressing story. It’s about acknowledging the gaps and ending a relationship with a loved one.
