  • It's "Shine a Light" not "Shine Alive"

  • very deep...love u GD

  • Truthfully, i think this is one of of the greatest songs GD has ever written. I love love love the tune, and the words are heartbreaking, yet also heartwarming. It kinda makes me 10x as pissed at all the haters in the world. Sure the mv is a little unusual, but it represents the feelings he was trying to put out there. I absolutely love it. I don't understand why this song isn't promoted as much as Heartbreaker and such. So glad I came across this. Thank you so much!

  • The lyrics are so heartbreaking. :'(

    But I'm proud that my favorite Kpop singer can reflect back to his innocent dreams of success as a child. He really is strong, to be able to stay on the right path and not be tempted off of it by fame. I really admire you.

  • Love the lyrics, and GD of course! =^_^=

  • 1:25 "would eat a taco" :3

  • he explains the song in this episode starting on 12:39

  • @00neenaa00 tahnx

  • this make me love GD more!!

  • Very creative. Respect!!!!!!!!!

  • what's up with GD and his apple?

  • I really don't understand why people don't BIGBANG!!!

  • Best song ever it helps me realize my dream and dont forget bout my past, what i've been through...thanks GD your amazing. dont listen to haters listen to lovers because we love you and your songs.

  • i cry for him..

  • i'm kinda like always crying while listenting to this song.....

  • He's amazing.

  • I thought it was "shine a light," not "shine alive." Hm.

  • he thanked choice37! How sweet^^

  • Thts right. Normal ppl should realize tht they actually have it easier than celebrities. The image they put on the surface is just an illusion. Think tht u can endure the pressure? The expectations? Nd the paparazzi waiting to get a scoop on u, the crazy fans tht look up to u, follow u, worship u. Every action u perform gets thoroughly examined. Even little, trivial mistakes weigh on ur shoulders a 100x's more. The entertainment world is very harsh.

    ~Very creative, symbolic MV. GD, HWAITING (:

  • @TheKawaiiDango although sometimes that is what some celebrities want...

  • This song got me back to dream and to work for that dream!!! THANK YOU GD!!!

  • Shine a light

  • this may be stupiud question..but ..is GD obsessed with apples?

  • @SulliXXlollipop well I think so haha it's his concept for his first solo album :)

  • @SulliXXlollipop

    i think the concept of the apple is actually a heart

  • that song is more powerful than i thought

  • the song is so beautiful, it's kind of sad

  • Remember back in the day~ love this song <3

  • MORE APPLES! YAY?....

I LOVE U GD!!!! u INSPIRE me!!!! :D

  • I love his gas mask so I bought a Russian GP5 =))

  • @boyyeudoi101090 :ooo WHERE DID U GET IT!?

  • @katnissevergreen101 : you are in America, just google and you can even buy Ak47 and RPG7 =))

  • @boyyeudoi101090 THAT IS SO COOL. but are their frauds?

  • @katnissevergreen101 : How could I know ? You have to check by yourself ! But if they are real, you will notice right away. For example : My mask was not even package, it was put in some kind of "army bag" and there were some details written in Russian ^^, the bag looks a little ugly (typical Russian) :)

  • @boyyeudoi101090 but HOW DO I KNOW IF IT'S RUSSIAN?!? JUST KIDDING haha :P thannk you hehehe

  • I think he loves apples...

  • @sejeleah0101 It's his logo, duh! :-)

  • I think I'm in love... with this song! ♥

  • Isn't it A'yo?

  • We need rappers in this world like him people don't think it takes talent but their stupid.

  • the mv is kinda wierd but i love the song

  • is this song about his life? AWESOME? who wrote dis song neway? can any VIP tell me?

  • @bubblekiut1 GD wrote it

  • i love how he says thanks choice n i love da whole song

  • every single mv of him I watch, there's at least one or more apples O.o

  • I love this song its so meaningful

  • There are some STUPID ******* ASSHOLES

    Out There Who Have NO EARS & Think That GD has No Talent!!Well I'll Say This, If Yur Just Jealous. Become BETTER Than GD

    YOURSELF!!!!!Kwon 지용 Fan FOREVER!!!!

  • Chat-Taco, Wedeet-Taco ;DD

  • My username says ALL

  • If GD Had gone to US N acted there , He would surely have become the best rapper n composer . He isn't only a musician but a teacher who gives us good instructions,eductions n dirctions to our lives .

  • OH MY G-DRAGON

  • ♥this song.....really2 ♥ OMG GD voice standing

  • "what's with him and the apple?"

    Well i think that it was his main concept for this album :) that's all..

    and the Apple resembles his heart and also love i guess

    ..........or maybe he just like apple lol

  • @skim260 The word for apple is close to 'Sorry' or "I'm sorry' I think. So it's kind of a double meaning, hidden message thing, I've been told.

  • The Korean version of Eminem 

  • I feel like he wrote this song to give himself encouragement...i just saw the ep of night after night when he's on with top, and he talked bout how he felt when he saw comments towards him like just die. He was like, and i think, what did i do to these people for them to say that. Completely broke my heart :(( im seriously not gonna be an anti of any celebrity now, celebrities are people too, these comments affect them more than we know. G dragon remember u'll always have more fans than anti's,

  • @pashtunprincess24 is that video on youtube and in eng sub? thats very harsh to say about somebody too. i heard that after the crash Daesung had he was bombarded with comments about him bein a murder and stuff like that, but he is an angel cause no murderer would ever go to the guy's funeral like he did. he is a total sweetheart and antis just brought him down

  • @dying2live4epicfail i dont know, but i saw it on dailymotion a while ago :)

  • @pashtunprincess24 ahh well thanks anyways :)

  • i read somewhere that if people had a choice between fame and money...almost everyone would pick fame. i get it, with fame comes with money, so you get both...but i would rather be rich than have everyone's eye on me watching everything i do.

  • now that i see the lyrics the video makes sense

  • This song is like telling a story about his life!! GD is so talented!! Awesome rapper! Fighting GD oppa!

  • when he said "Shine alive " its sounds like "China live" xD

  • Gdragon's baby come out from a Apple.

  • no offense but all GD songs scare me a little bit, but the real meaning is scary how honest it is, like how people dont want to face the real truth.

    wow.

    no offense but GD might bomb in america, cause all we seem to listen to is love songs.

    no offense, GD.

    >.<

  • illuminati... shit k-pop is infiltrated as well! :(

  • @miraiAMV lolz? can you stop all of the conspiracy theories already? honestly, interpretation comes with many meanings and for you to look at it in just one perspective is like very shallow... do some research and remember, theory is not as strong as fact because there are many versions of it.

  • If you love GD follow on this twitter : @GDragon_Kpop gomawo

  • it seams that he likes appels xDD

  • GD must really love apples!!! :3

  • *-g-dragon3

  • Love gd!!!!!!! I read a comment on one of his songs tht hes comin to america!!!! :D n wats up wit the apples tho???hmmmmmm -g-dragon3

  • Hah does anyone know the parody of Gd's cute song??? <3

  • i just love the fact that he writes his songs and those songs are really from the heart... it's not about your typical kind of song and it's damn catchy!!! i can't get it out of my head!!!

  • booooooooooooo to the shitty red tag.ca commercial before this video booooooo!!

  • I feel like eating apples now

  • No, Seven people suck at Apples-to-Apples

  • I beg that if GD were american, he would be a super world-star >.> that's life... anyway, u still are so damn amazing gd!!!

  • 7 ppl don't remember and really hate apples.

  • honestly all i see is gd and his amazing song as always, i am NEVER disappointed when it comes to him, and i always say never say never, but once again i repeat. i am NEVER disappointed. he is the king of k-pop in my opinion.

  • aww G-Dragon you are so flippin amazing <3 keep it up baby and I'll keep buying everything you're sellin' :)

  • @BIGBANGCRAZY111 i know ppl have been bothering u and ur probably tired of it but i couldnt agree with u more!!!!

  • Heh heh look at my name thingy!!!

  • GD, I want your babies ;]

  • GD, you bring hope to me with your songs! RESPECT!

  • There are many music in America that have positive lyrics you just don't hear them on the radio or t.v. It's always shitty ass lil wayne!

  • love this sonngg

    whats with gdragon and apples...

  • @mytjrdud The apples are meant to represent hearts, from his album "heartbreaker".

  • @KattunxLuv  oh i seeee

  • This song really enlighten me

    To see how much pain he has...

  • 1:23 he's a sexy beast

  • Ah... I havent watched this in a while.... Brings back memories

  • G-Dragon, the next charlie sheen...lol

  • ive seen and counted about 25-30 apples!! this song is really cool!!

  • wat is with him and apples.........

  • @HMSlisa the apple symbolizes his heart (apples look like hearts...i think they sound alike in korean too...? idk he explains it in GD TV/2ne1TV)

  • @HMSlisa its the symbol of seduction ;)

  • so i've been listening to some of his songs.

    & i have to say that there isnt any song of his i do not like.

    we need more rappers like him!

  • always an apple

  • He just love apples huh

  • dude -3- i soooo wanna goto a diff country.AMERICA SUCKS! xD

  • @Lubzo3o don't go that far now. we just have shitty music, save for a few artists that sing about stuff we actually care to hear

  • i loved this song from the first time, i did not read the lyric until nov, and now i love it even more, shit, this guy is really talented, his voice, the lyric the vid, everything makes me almost cry. GD is one of the best artist ALIVE !

    LOVE AND RESPECT TO OUR DEAR OPPA! <3 <3 <3

  • this is too cool. GDragon is too cool. he is genius

  • GD you must strong..ever ever..so..everything in front of you..keep fight.

  • I think to that American music is all about sex,drugs, alcohol, etc. And Korean artist sing about their feelings, but maybe American artist are singing about their feelings. Korean, and American are 2 different cultures. So they will have 2 ways in expressing theirselves. If you want to hear this kind of music, just listen to K-pop instead. I like both Korean and American music. But since im Korean/Chinese i feel like i have a connection with this kind of music. :) BB Hwaiting!

  • K-Pop music is ALOT better than 90% of American music for 3 reasons just my opinion.

    1) Those songs set a bad example. Drugs, Getting Wasted, blah blah.

    2)They use major auto-tune. Ex) Rebecca Black-Seriously WTF? Is that even her voice?

    3) The celebrities who sing them are cocky and unreal, they're just doing it for the money and the fame, so the lyrics mean: N-O-T-H-I-N-G. They don't put nearly as much emotion into their songs. They don't put in effort, they just sing.

  • @KIRAtevoviLAM

    Lol Nobody Likes Rebecca Black, Its Just That Her Song Is Catchy; Like If You Hear It, Its So Anoying But It Stays In Your Head :P

  • @KIRAtevoviLAM The sad part is that no one mentions the other American artists that actually sing from their heart about life. Those that sing about drugs, sex, or nonsense are more famously known than those that sing songs that make sense and are from their heart. While i do like a lot of American pop songs/ hip-hop i like music like indie more because the lyrics aren't about having sex or getting wasted. to me k-pop is genuine but so are the artist in the US that aren't about sex, drugs, etc.

  • @jasminelovesswan Agreed. =] 

  • @jasminelovesswan I agree! Like..Adelle was that her name? THE PERSON WHO SANG CHASING PAVEMENTS!Sorry, I don't listen to that much English music now. =P

  • Poor GD. GOSH YOU'RE TALENTED.

  • I wish I could see him eat an apple...

  • I don't know what it is, but something tells me he just loves apples.

  • i love the song.:) i love GD and everybody in big bang .

  • crazy video!

  • Where is the 'LOVE AWESOME SONG' button ? :/

  • Could it be that he has MJs Dates (1958 - 2009) on his shirt's back?

  • @PrudenceUnaquie It is I just realized that cause the front is like one of MJ's jackets

  • @GambiTeamPhreshy This is makes him even more cool ;)

  • I spot 56 apples how many can you spot?

  • @ILoveHiroto1 I read about some interview that GD was on and he had answered that apples remind him of hearts (like the shape of apples i think). I don't remember where exactly I read but that's what I remember him saying

  • @mandyl1996 thanx for the info. I was always curious on why he always had apples in his vids. :) thats cool to know. Makes sense after seeing the video of "heartbreaker" it has apples, too.

  • so cool song 

  • some lyrics are wrong. like shine alive is suppose to be shine a light like the shine a light concert

  • G-Dragon did such an amazing job with the lyrics to this song!

  • There. Is. An. Apple. In. Every. Video. But I still think he's totally awesome! (Saranghae G-Dragon!)

  • Luvin this song!!

  • I read somewhere that the apples remind him of hearts

  • this song reminds me why <3 him!!

  • He likes apples

    He looks amazing with blond hair

    He is heartfelt

    He is amazing

    GD<3

  • Maybe he wants a baby boy!LOL jk

  • i think he is realy love appels but he is awesome and coool !!!!!

  • FAVORITE PART::1:22-1:37.."Gdragon whatever people say about how you're too young,i'm gdragon whatever others say,people say they envy me,because i have too much,that celebrities live a comfortable life,just once be in their shoes for day,YOU'LL REALIZE THAT EVERYTHING'S NOT AS YOU SEE IT".(it seriously gives m goosebumps)...GD is the best..

  • ATTENTION BIGBANG LOVERS: We must work to get the WORLD TOUR that we deserve! I know that YG wants to do the world tour, but they think that they won't sell as many tickets in other areas of the world as they would in Japan or Korea. That's why we have a plan. Copy and paste this message on as many BIGBANG videos as you can. Also inculde where you are from so that YG KNOWS that BIGBANG has international fans. Thanks guys! If all of us pitch in, we'll get what we want! - USA

  • @choafanfoeva They are having the world Tour!! You gotta go to their Facebook page and vote USA!!! We're losing!! X(

  • @AnEarthlyPeace idk how plz tell me u or someone fast

  • @AnEarthlyPeace ok i just did it

  • i cant stop listening to this song

  • I think this song should've gotten more attention than "Heartbreaker" or "Breathe". I like all three songs, but this song...it's (excuse my lame language) sick, man. xD

  • is it true that GD started to sing since he was 13??

  • Comment removed

  • @redboxkiller yus and ive seen sum of his vids at 13 if u look up on youtube gdragon before bigbang u can see him rap its really cute when he says gdragon

  • @redboxkiller that was when he first got into YG (he was in some songs back then, YB too, but if u ask me HD had way more), and I think he started singing before that.

    (ex. the kid group he was in at like 7)

  • s'up with GD and apples?

  • @angelbackinblack i think gd once said that apples look like a heart to him

  • makes me sad hes been through so much hes a very strong person.

  • He really worked his way to be where he is today!

    

  • the meaning of the song i reallie like,a nd i the line i luved that he sang was about celebrities licing a confortable life and to just once be in there shoes for a day and know living a life as a celebrity isn't easy either

  • What meaningful lyrics, luv Jiyong max!!! ^^

  • this has been my ringtone since september 2009.. and I'm still not planning on changing it

  • why does GD remind me of SuJu's Sungmin?
