[Full Audio] BLACKPINK – WHISTLE (휘파람) (Acoustic Ver.) [2nd Single Album]

This is a 2016 release by a girl group from YG Entertainment.

The acoustic version has a chic vibe that’s perfect for winter.

The title of the song, “Whistle” (Hwiparam), is repeated many times in the chorus and literally means a whistling sound.

It likens passionate feelings of love to a whistle ringing in your ears; while chic, it still has a catchy, idol-like mood that’s irresistibly cute.

It’s the song “Frozen” by the world-famous singer Madonna.

As the title suggests, it has a cold, icy feel.

The lyrics reflect on a past relationship that didn’t work out, with a sentiment like, “If I could have melted your heart, we could have made it.” It’s a track that suits the often lonely winter season quite well.

Peppermint WinterOwl City

Peppermint Winter

Owl City is the name of American musician Adam Young’s solo project, and this song was released in 2010.

It’s a song I really want you to look up a Japanese translation for online and give a listen! It’s like an ordinary winter day kind of song, but it’s incredibly heartwarming.

It’s a track that warms you from the inside, even in the winter cold.

The synth sounds that evoke a holiday mood will fill you with happiness.

Sometimes It Snows In AprilPrince

Prince – Sometimes It Snows In April (Live At Webster Hall – April 20, 2004)

“Sometimes It Snows In April,” sung by the American musician Prince, is a track included on his 1986 album Parade.

It centers on the death of Tracy, the protagonist of the film Under the Cherry Moon, which Prince directed.

While the lyrics are about April, the imagery of snowfall makes it a fitting listen in winter as well.

With its folky sound driven by acoustic guitar and piano, it’s a song that can warm you up on a cold winter day!
