If you can recall, last year, Taeyeon made her musical debut in ‘Midnight Sun’ and took the role of Kaoru, a girl who had xeroderma pigmentosum (a disease that didn’t allow her to be exposed to the sunlight so she couldn’t go out in the daylight since she couldn’t be exposed to the sunlight), yet she lived happily day by day, crushing on the main actor, Koji, and going out at night to sing.
I believe she participated in 5 songs in the whole musical and studio versions of 3 of them have been released–‘It’s Happy Line’, ‘Goodbye Days’, and ‘Skyline’. However, these are re-mastered fan-made versions.
Regardless, give them a listen.
Ahh, I’m glad that lately, we get to hear more of Taeyeon’s singing (‘Like A Star‘, ‘I Love You‘, and’Different‘). Her singing never ceases to blow me away!

– Majority of all comments I see on Youtube.
I would say that her singing is better than okay. Not great, just way above the average line. 7.5/10.
Why? Because I listen to many singers like her its losing the edge for me, that why.

AHHH! *spazz spazz spazz* I hope YUI has had a chance to hear Taeyeon’s versions of her songs because they are breath-taking.♥ YUI & Kid Leader sooo need to do a collab in the future; either language works, or both, I’m not picky 😉
As far as I know, these are not OFFICIAL studio version releases. I believe they are remastered by fans. I’ve had these version from a while back. I believe there was a thread with these three songs along with many other remastered audio tracks posted on SSF (link http://bit.ly/dEM23K)
thanks for the information :] i’ll edit the post.
thanks scott, you just might be right.
regardless, i can’t wait until official versions ARE released. but i heard they had issues with copyrighting and stuff from the original japanese musical 😛
If I’m nt mistaken, is the midnight sun musical is where taeyeon holding a guitar and sing?
I watch it on YouTube….
Nice song anyway……
SNSD, fighting!^^
Her version of the song is okay, maybe because YUI’s voice is one of a kind and unique and when she writes songs her voice makes the song hers that it makes others who sing not have the same feeling as when SHE sings it. I like both singers, but this song can only be sung by YUI the best
Agreed. Though Taeyeon’s voice is good and powerful, it has a different clarity compared to YUI
agree with you bro. Also like S@LLY said, “yui’s voice is one of a kind and unique.” it also does really suit YUI
Well said 🙂 I do love Taeyeon’s versions, but YUI’s emotional voice is just as much a part of these songs as the delicate guitar plucking and strumming in the background.
but many fans said that Taeyeon’a versionhas a lesser impact due to her softer voice… She did good with the song…. but i would say that its like trying to repaint the mona lisa with a different medium and art style… still good but not as great as the original…
I like the first one! 😀
actually these ver. are already have in last summer 2010…
the quality is the same…
I LOVE all 3 even though they’re re-mastered fan-made versions ‘cos Taeyeon’s vocal rendition is JJANG in my book 😉 😀 😀 !!!
I was shocked when opened SK and found this as the latest post. I really love Midnight Sun as it was the first musical drama made me cry, not only teary-eyes, and also introduced me to YUI.
Even thought it is fan remastered version, it is still better than what I had before. I doubt the musical will get a studio version release. It has been too long since it aired and I believe there will be copyright issue. If the musical does get a studio version release, all the song will be released not only Taeyon’s. I love all the songs there, not to mention how wonderful “Yesterday’s You Tommorow’s You” being sung by both main lead, even “Sunflower” by the supporting character was amazing.
It will be good if there is any OST for sales~~~
Yeaaah…Taeyeon has a great voice but YUI’s songs are very particular to YUI due to her unique voice and the way she sings, plus her songs are composed or lyrics are solely written by YUI herself…which makes YUI’s work so much more special to me …they’re both have their talents they’re both diff type of artists in the music/entertainment industry.
So I’m confused, is this YUI or Taeyeon? I wanna say it’s Taengoo but I see YUI in the comments and now it’s confusing xD
^These are the songs from Taeyeon’s musical which are remakes of the original songs by Japanese artist YUI. Both their voices are so different. Here’s one of the original tracks so you can see for yourself 🙂
