    The piano part at 2:50 that Kevin mentions is a callback to IU’s first big hit, Good Day. In the beginning of the second verse, a string section plays the same chord progression as that piano part in Lilac. She also had a callback to Ending Scene in her song My Sea off this album as well. It seems she and her producers intentionally sprinkled in these breadcrumbs, seeing as this album is her bidding her past goodbye.

    3:58 My heart always clenchs during this part because it’s the same exact animation as her tribute to Sulli and Jonghyun, “Eight” feat./prod. Suga. Because she’s been through so much through her career - her battle with an eating disorder, hate comments, having a dating scandal, and having her whole life seemingly in front of the world.

    This song grows on me. The more I listen to it, the more I realise the richness (i don’t know if this is the right term) of the instruments. The mv truly captured the lyrics and what the song tries to convey. So, for me this is another one whole genius package of IU’s work, the song itself, IU’s vocal, the music arrangement, the mv, the dance, and ofcourse IU’s presence. everything is amazing!!!

    Since getting into IU's music earlier this year, she has become one of my favorite singers, right up there with Wendy from Red Velvet and Bruce Dickinson(Iron Maiden). "Lilac" is one of my favorite songs, it is beautifully sung(like all her music), has a nice funky bass, and the music video is truly wonderful. I love the bit at the beginning where she "learns" the choreography, and that smile at the end sends shivers down my spine every time I see it. Great video as always! Keep up the good work!

    Hi @ReacttotheK I've been rewatching your videos and I noticed in this playlist that Atlantis seems to be not included. It's supposed to be after this vid as per 14:06 but what showed up is Thunderous. Thank you.

    There's a lot of things in the production but they stay in the back, It makes you want to listen again and again.
