Both Maya & Kim So-wol would've had nothing other than positive responses to this outstanding reinterpretation of their respective works. 👍

[@lukemurthwaite7694]

It is a beautiful and tragic poem and I love how it is presented here ☺️

[@CraigWinstanley1]

You are 100% correct !

[@TheLordNoodles]

Enlighten me, so this song is a poem?

[@lukemurthwaite7694]

@@TheLordNoodles I wasn’t aware of the poem until I translated the credits listed on the album and did a little further reading. Kim So-wol was a poet in the 1920s who wrote the poem this song is based on. I’ve seen a couple of versions of the poem translated into English, but reading up on it there are no English words that adequately describe the emotions of the original Korean words. Even so the versions I have read stir up the emotions.

[@doobiejones9388]

I had no idea who you where talking about when I saw this comment. So I investigated. WORD! Impressed! Though I would think? That RQ put their own interpretation on this also. Hope this translates correctly? Though for all I know you speak English better than I do? I spent time over seas in the army and I was always amazed at the different people I met that spoke English better than myself.😊😊😊😊😎🤘

[@roseblue_]

This amazing song is based on a poem by one of Korea's major poets, Kim Sowol. It was written more than 100 years ago. As anything written during the Japanese Occupation of Korea, it was a love song, but most importantly, it was a political song, disguised to ward off the Japanese Imperial Army Intelligence. The meaning of the poem is dual. It refers to the lover who walks away, with heartbreaking tenderness. The lover that Kim Sowol lost, because of impossible circumstances, which led her to despise him, and him never getting over it. But it can also refer to the Occupier, the Invader. The poet also says that he won't shed a tear and throw Azaleas from the mountain, when the Invader will depart, as they march away. And when Korea will be free again, after all those brutal years of the Occupation, he won't shed a tear. Maya took this poem 88 years later, and made it into a very important Rock song. She used the poem as the chorus and added a dialogue with the poet across space and time. The song also has a dual meaning, as the poem. It speaks to the lover, but also to those Despots and Generals, and their autocratic Party, who were ruling Korea with an iron fist, for endless decades. South Korea became a Democracy as late as 1997. This song was released in 2007 and it features scenes from student uprisings and bloody Army intervention against the protesters. It celebrates the birth of a Democracy after a bloody century. Obviously, RQ go for the simple beauty of this song and it's worth as a tender and touching love song. But it still is one of the most important, politically and emotionally charged, pieces of art on the Korean language and history, used by different generations, during their struggle for Freedom.

[@worldsedge4991]

Hey! Thanks for taking the time to write up this background for us.

[@michaelmusson3593]

Thanks for explaining this I felt this was way too powerful to be jus a love song It's a little like Gulliver's Travels you have to love at it as satire as well.

[@michaelmusson3593]

So in a subtle way the poet is giving the Japanese occupation the middle finger that's why I get the freedom fight vibe from this song. Being disguised as an unfulfilled love song.

[@timothyford1103]

Thank you for your thoughtful and concise explanation.

[@michaelmusson3593]

This explanation of Phoenix Noir needs to be pin so to make sure that the non natives of Korea get a little bit of the history of this great country and apparently what Korea went thru under the occupation of Japan from 1910 to 1945 and how it became free and why March 1 is considered their Independence Day like July 4 in the US

[@JordynLaForge]

My daughter and I love watching your performances! She really loves Iree and wants to be like her.

[@ROLLINGQUARTZofficial]

Thank you and your daughter ❤

[@btsdancestudio5691]

Hi Jordyn. I don't know for sure but I think Iree does most of the response for RQ official. Good luck to your daughter

[@somaeck]

Just want to welcome Azalea into the immortality that is my Top 5 metal ballads of all-time.

[@somaeck]

May I just add... I am no fashion expert, but Arem in that red jacket is an absolute 10 on the "Blaze" scale. 🔥

[@mcm95403]

Well ladies, you got a HUGE compliment today. I was watching reaction videos to this and my mom (she's 86 and lives with me now) asked what I was doing. I told her I know it's not her kind of music, but to please try it and see what she thinks - she only listens to classical music. I put this on for her and not only did she watch the whole thing, I explained what it was about to her and that really impressed her, but she also complimented all of you on the quality of your individual skill at your instruments "they're very good", and she was really impressed by the vocals, especially at 2:29. She said "I see why you like them so much." Coming from my mom, this was shocking, but it's also testament to just how great this is and what a great job you're doing.

[@btsdancestudio5691]

Amazing story.Thanks for sharing.

[@Brickerbrack]

This is _insane,_ in the absolutely most complimentary sense of the word. Arem and Yeong Eun's basslines vibrating through my head. Hyunjung and Iree's blistering solos. Jayoung's incredible, powerful delivery _and those harmonies that gave me literal chills..._ Combine all that with all the gorgeous flower motifs, the stunning scenery and Yeong Eun's death stare 😳... *_Perfect._* Hopefully I'll have the first of my CDs in the next day or two, and I can't wait to get my hands on them... and then I'll see you again on Sunday morning! 🥰 This is shaping up to be a _fantastic_ week... 😁💜

1:03 베이스 들어오는 거 굿~ 1:49 기타 배킹(?) 임팩트 끝장. 의도한 건지 모르겠는데 현졍양 좌우 흔드는 모션이 제대로 한국적. 안무(?) 누가 짰는지 상 줘야 합니다 진짜... 모션이 너무 아트예요. 농담도 과장도 아니고 그 부분 30번쯤 봤습니다 지금까지. 2:34 혹시 무용(?)하셨나 싶었음. 굉장히 독특한데 음악과 영상에 완전 어울립니다. Blaze 포함, 제 기준 롤쿼 최애 뮤비입니다. 진짜 잘 찍고 잘 만들었어요. 네.

[@davidfrischknecht8261]

Imagine the energy in the venue when they perform this live.

[@sos-dc]

♥♥♥♥♥ 마야 부터 시작해서 이노래 엄청 좋아했었는데... 이 버젼이 더 좋은거 같음... 외국에선 인정 받고 있는데 한국 음악팬들은 진짜 좋은게 뭔지 모르나봐요.... 힘들어도 계속 음악해주시고 언제나 응원할께요~~

[@laiftaim]

지금껏 나온 롤링 쿼츠의 뮤직 비디오들 중에서 탑. 앨범 버전보다도 훨씬 좋습니다 이 뮤비 버전이. 아이리양 아름양은 이번에 많이 절제됐다 느꼈고, 자영/영은/현정 세 멤버가 특히 돋보이는데~ 이번엔 현정양 임팩트가 허~~~ 무표정한 시크함이 매력 폭발하네요. 진짜 인생은 Rock & Roll입니다, 아름다운 현정님~

[@wvang0013]

The blonde lead singer looks like Ailee! And what a beautiful song.

[@jlim1]

This song is so good. This is a legit rock band. All the members #1 through #5 are really talented musicians. My bias is the drummer and her rock/metal style. Some of her drum fills sound like she is playing double bass drums. Sounds so clean

[@AveryMcHenry]

My bias is the drummer too and I don't know if you know this song but do you get 'simple man' vibes from the bass guitar in the beginning. Or is it just me.😅

[@iamme3418]

Everything sounds amazing, the guitar, the vocals (that slide in 2:44, Jayoung's voice is so powerful 😭❤️). This is also a first for me, listening to this type of krock. The "unfamiliarity" of it is just so refreshing. I keep wondering what happens to the instrumentation on the next line. Rolling Quartz is amazing ^^

[@ssg5217]

Reminds me of the Korean drama Jewel in the palace. It's now replaced by Quartz in the palace. And the main character name sounds like YeongEun

[@robertking1367]

The spirits of the Kings, Queens and court had a nice present when you were filming on Royal grounds. I liked it too, the song in its little waves of softness and instrumental delicacies, I found to be beautiful and moving!

[@philragu5298]

Couldn't help but notice the influence of the 70's and 90's American rock on the guitar riffs, Queensryche's Empire in the opening riff and Lynyrd Skynrd's Simple Man a little later on the guitar and bass. Being a music producer of dance and hi hop I applaud the stones to mix those two bands styles! They had me as a fan right then! I'll be expecting great things from these ladies, Bravo!!!
