STAYC - “Find (Sieun & Seeun & J)”

Seeun: It's an easy listen, but it’s not boring either. Our vocals are distinct but harmonious together, so you’ll see everyone’s different charms.

J: This is a unit song by Sieun, Seeun, and me. It’s calm but addictive. I listen to it often in the car. I really love this song—it might be my favorite on this album.

STAYC - “Fakin (Sumin & Yoon)”
Sumin: The powerful sound is truly memorable. Members with unique vocals poured all their energy into this track.

Yoon: I really enjoy band sounds, so this song was right up my alley. It’s a lyrical song about confessing your love despite not wanting to be hurt and being afraid of love.

STAYC - “Roses (ISA)”
ISA: The tinkling chime of the music box gives the track a “pretty” feel. I like the song because you can listen to it anywhere, anytime. The song is all about the vocals, so please pay attention to my timbre when you listen.

STAYC - “Stay WITH me”
Sumin: This is both our first fan song and the first song that all of us participated in writing the lyrics to. It showcases the distinct characteristics our fans know and love.

Sieun: This is a meaningful song in many ways. It’s our first fan song that STAYC wrote the lyrics for, and we have a special place in our hearts for this song. We look forward to performing this in our concerts. I hope that you focus on the lyrics when you listen because all the members participated in writing it! I think it’ll be even more meaningful when SWITH get to see what sort of message we will share through our fan chant.

ISA: We wrote the lyrics with SWITH in mind, making it even more meaningful and special to me. This is a rock-based pop song with a high-teen vibe that feels cool and breezy. Listen for the band sound, and I’m sure you’ll have a blast.

Seeun: This song is very meaningful to us because it’s our first fan song! The members put all the sweet messages for our fans into the lyrics for the first time ever, so it’s all the more valuable for us.

Yoon: This is the first fan song that STAYC wrote the lyrics for. The capital letters of the title spells SWITH. This is a song for our STAYC who have been working really hard to get where we are, and for SWITH who have supported us whenever and wherever. It has all the messages that I’ve wanted to say, like “I’ll be waiting for you when you look back” and “I’ll go if I’m with you” in the first and second verses. Then in the third verse, we put all the words we’ve wanted to hear from SWITH, to let them know that we’re together when we sing the song! The members worked really hard because it’s our first fan song!

J: “Stay WITH me” is the first song that STAYC wrote the lyrics to, and our first ever fan song. We’ve always wanted to release a fan song, and we’re very happy that we got to participate in writing the lyrics. I’m excited and curious as to how our SWITHs will react to the song. Hehe I hope you focus on the lyrics when you listen to it.

STAYC - “1 Thing”
Sumin: The addictive chorus is the highlight, and the choreography is amazing. It’s also a little sexy.

Sieun: I kept humming this song after we heard the guide and got our parts. It’s the first song we recorded out of the new songs, and we took care to showcase our different vocal styles. Please look out for how much STAYC’s changed and our powerful performance! Also, think of one thing that you’ve been eagerly waiting for, just like the title, when you listen!

ISA: There are different meanings and layers to the line “I’m just waiting for only 1 thing” and the different parts are each unique in their own ways, so it's fun listening out for them. Have fun because you’ll find yourself dancing to the song before you know it.

Seeun: “1 Thing” is a style of song that STAYC’s never shown you before! It has a different feel from our lead single. The song itself is great, but the choreography is really cool, so I highly recommend that you watch the performance!

Yoon: You’ll get hooked to the beat the moment you listen to “1 Thing.” The song is about how STAYC doesn’t want to let go of the one thing that we want. The dance break in the latter half of the song that starts with “1 thing” is sure to awaken the fun side of you that’s been dormant.

J: “1 thing” was the first song that we got. I absolutely loved the beat as soon as I listened to it. It’s that powerful, and the performance is amazing as well.

DOYOUNG – “Dallas Love Field”
Sumin: The band sound is so clean and fresh in this song. It’s the perfect song for starting off your morning.

STAYC – “Let Me Know”
