Dorkling 827 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Rather then holding it against him...I can't really take him seriously. Not to sound mean, but when people speak in broken English I can't help, but laugh or cringe sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dina 323 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I wouldn't~~I actually dont mind broken english in songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny. 762 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 If it was Lovey Dovey Rap "bad" kind of english, then yes. If it was just cheesy english then not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urhandsrnaughty 2,648 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 no. a lot of sm groups have american born members and most of their songs have bad english in them. so i would assume it'd be the same case for henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuackingDuck 826 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 yes lol. it's his solo and he's canadian born and raised, so there are no excuses for letting flop english slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kin 38 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 doesn't he write songs? maybe the song will be his own song and will have good englsih, if not, i dont actually care~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abraa 1,118 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 If he couldn't pronounce it, yes. If not, blame it on whoever wrote the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katherine 20 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 pretty much. G.NA's Canadian and the English in her songs (almost) always make sense, probably because she helps oversee the production of her songs even if she doesn't write the lyrics herself. I see no reason why he shouldn't do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lepidoptery 2,917 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Since it's a solo, I wouldn't rely on what happens with groups as precedence. BoA's not a native speaker but her English is supposed to be quite good; was there any Engrish on the Only One album? She doesn't have writing credits for 5 of the songs. Actually, One Dream ft. Henry (and Key) but neither of them have writing credits, so was there Engrish there? EDIT: if I actually cared, I wouldn't hold it against him; I'd just pity him for having no say over his solo work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Wine 1,540 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Maybe he finds the Engrish funny and won't want to correct it? XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yerowan 1,006 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 since he's a fleunt english speaker, there shouldnt be any problem with english lyrics correct? I had to go back and read your question a few times; I was distracted by your glorious sig. And yes. Engrish and broken english bother me in any group where there are native speakers who could correct it. For a *solo* project with a native speaker, I'd find it tremendously disappointing.

Mingy 105 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Seeing as how SNSD has 2 English speakers and their songs still has laughable Engrish, I don't think I'll be bothered much if he does. But I really hope he doesn't though. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
