2NE1 New Digital Single Lonely

YG Entertainment and Soompi have teamed up again to give you a written preview of the new 2NE1 digital single “Lonely.” The soon to be released MV teaser will add to the excitement of the digital single release later this week on Thursday.

The clothes worn in their latest music video are pieces from the French brand “Balmain“, which was launched in 1945 by French designer Pierre Balmain. In 2006, Christophe Decarnin became the director, and for the past few years, Balmain has become a hot trend in the fashion world.

The digital single “Lonely” has an acoustic sound to it interlaced with string instrumentals (violin/cello) throughout the song (heard in the first preview above). The acoustic sound is very pleasing to hear and is accompanied by vocal sets by the individual members which include sets sung in unison. The distinct sounds of a cello (some type of string instrument) fade in and out with the chorus sections of the song. It has a very chill and relaxing melody with the acoustic guitar playing throughout.
