Who remembers YG Entertainment’s legendary solo artist SE7EN? His debut song on 2003 was ‘Come Back to Me‘, and he made a syndrome by performing on Heelys. All the kids in Korea begged their parents to buy those shoes.🤣🤣🤣
Then 20 years have passed, and the R&B singer-songwriter Grizzly , who has hit ‘Beige coat’ on 2022, gave a new birth to the 20-year-old song! Grizzly’s gentle voice and the acoustic guitar makes it softer. The notoriously high note of the ‘baby, baby, baby’ part won’t disappoint you at all!
⬆️ Check Grizzly’s live performance of ‘Come Back To Me’ and the special clip of him riding(or wearing) Heelys.
