7 WINNER Songs We Can Listen To Everyday

Here’s a tip for you all this 2020, in case you want to have a better than ever year — listen to WINNER. The South Korean boy group, who has continually impressed us with their ability to create music and amazing performances, has been slaying the music scene since 2013 when Jinu, Hoony, Mino, and Yoon (together with former member Taehyun) competed against their fellow YG trainees in WIN: Who Is Next? and emerging as the WINNER.

In 2014, it became official — WINNER is YG Entertainment’s first boy group in eight years since BIGBANG. And the wait was definitely worth it for YG stans because the boy group went on to slay, dominating charts after charts and earning trophies after trophies during their debut year.

Although their five-year run was not free from challenges especially in 2016 when youngest member Taehyun left YG Entertainment, WINNER emerged strong, coming back with the single album Fate Number For with the chart-topping “Really Really” as its title track. And their success story continues as they earn the nickname “Trust and Listen” in South Korea for their potential in creating high quality music approved by the public.

This 2020, Jinu, Hoony, Mino, and Yoon will once again treat their Philippine Inner Circles to an amazing show at the SM Mall of Asia Arena on January 25 as PULP Live World brings WINNER [CROSS] TOUR in Manila. But before we enjoy another hype-filled night with the boys, we got seven songs of WINNER that you definitely have to include in your everyday playlist in no particular order!

Note: WINNER has a lot of songs that deserve to be in this list (all the boy group’s songs should be on your playlist, to be honest) but we took the challenge to list only seven (imagine the predicament, everyone!).

#1 “Don’t Flirt”

“Don’t Flirt” is the third track on WINNER’s debut studio album 2014 S/S. The song showed a beautiful contrast from the first two tracks of the studio album, “Empty” and “Color Ring”, which are soulful and emotional in sound and lyrics. Through its fun and catchy sound and lyrics, “Don’t Flirt” ups the mood and prepares listeners for Mino’s solo track “I’m Him” which comes fourth in the track list.

The boys performed “Don’t Flirt” on music shows, showing off their playful and cute sides (They were flirting with us!) The song was written by Hoony, Mino, iHawk, Ham Seung Cheon, and Kang Uk Jin with music and arrangement by iHawk, Ham Seung Cheon, and Kang Uk Jin.

#2 “Sentimental”

Eighteen months after the release of their debut studio album, WINNER returned with another commendable release with their first mini album EXIT:E which include the song “Sentimental”. “Sentimental”, written by Hoony, Mino, and Taehyun, dwells on loneliness, making references on wanting to reach out and be in the midst of someone’s company.

Despite the heart-breaking lyrics of the track, “Sentimental” features an upbeat and groovy arrangement.

#3 “Really Really”

“Really Really” marked WINNER’s first release after reforming as a four-member boy group, following Taehyun’s departure. The lead track of Fate Number For, “Really Really” boasted a tropical sound that was well-received by the public, giving the songs more than 2.5 million downloads and taking the number one spot on Gaon Digital Chart.

Jinu, Hoony, Mino, and Yoon held their first comeback stage on April 8 on MBC’s Show! Music Core which marked their first stage on the show since debuting in 2014.

“Really Really” was written by Hoony, Mino, and Yoon with Mino and Yoon contributing to the song’s music. Kang Uk Jin worked with the boys once again for this track in terms of music and arrangement.

#4 “Movie Star”

From the boy group’s second studio album EVERYD4Y, “Movie Star” is refreshing — a beautiful mixture of various sounds and sentimental lyrics that touch deep.

Look back
The last month took 30 frames, just one second
How many actors of life have fallen during that time?
Acting just disappears into the air
Let’s not live as strangers, even if we have to work hard
Let’s not sell our beauty, who cares if we make NGs, GN

“Movie Star” was written by Hoony, Mino, and Yoon. Yoon also worked on the song’s music with Airplay, who also did the song’s arrangement.

In last year’s EVERYWHERE Tour, Philippine Inner Circles used “Movie Star” for their fan project — and it was beautiful.

#5 “Love Me Love Me”

“Love Me Love Me” is one of the two tracks in WINNER’s second single album, Our Twenty For which was released in August 2017, marking their second comeback that year. Hoony, Mino, and Yoon wrote the lyrics of the song. Mino and Yoon also contributed to the music, working with Future Bounce who also arranged the song.

The song is carefree, perfect for the summer beach vibe with its funky and catchy tune.

“Love Me Love Me” peaked at the fifth spot of Gaon Digital Chart and fourth spot on Billboard chart.

#6 “Millions”

WINNER ended 2018 in the best possible way by gifting Inner Circles with “Millions”. The feel-good song gives listeners an upbeat, dance, and summery listen that will get stuck in your head.

“Millions” once again proved the chart power of WINNER as it peaked at the second spot of South Korea’s Gaon Digital Chart and K-Pop Hot 100. It also secured the fifth spot on Billboard Digital Songs Chart. In addition, the song gave winner six music show wins!

#7 “OMG”

Capping off this list is “OMG”, one of six tracks on the boy group’s latest extended play Cross. The song was written by Hoony, Mino, and Yoon to express gratitude to their Inner Circles who have given them support and love through the years.

The boys also teamed up with their fans for the special lyric video of “OMG” which was done with the help of 3,000 people who contributed their handwriting for the video.
