my english cover of “villain” by stella jang is now available on streaming platforms and music stores! 😈 distrokid.com/hyperfollow/justinesmic/villain-english-version

I love this version because it gives off a more "strong" villain vibe, like a villain lecturing a hero on the truth of the world where in the original version, its more of a subtle vibe, it gives the vibe of a villain operating underground.

Villains aren't just bad guys, they can be heroes in their own world.

Just realized this but in the picture the girl is doing a finger gun to her head, and as the picture slowly gets more deformed and demented it resembles her finger gun actually firing and blasting her head. Cool detail!

"Who said that YOU get to decide what's right and what's wrong? Just because I don't follow your rules doesn't make me a villain, then again, I don't care..."

This song actually gives me some peace of mind. I've spent so many years of my life worrying about how my actions and words would affect others due to past experience, but this song helps me accept that you can't exactly help how others perceive you and that's ok. We all have our dark sides and our light sides. Even if we feel that our decisions are pointless or end up hurting someone, it's not the end of the world. Nobody's perfect and that's ok, we're all just trying to exist.

You're covering almost every song i've been obsessed with for the past few days. Are you a mind reader?? 😮

My family has a lot of sayings, and one of them is this, "You cannot go through life without hurting someone, intentionally or not."

Ah yes i have been waiting for someone to make an english cover for this song, you did an awesome job btw☺

For me and anyone else to sing along uncontrollably: We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side Some things are black and you’re sure Some things are white and you’re sure You never learned to see the world in color You’re such a really good man However, that guy is bad Your boring world is really achromatic So many shades of gray, Oh how could you have lived so long and still not know, oh Good easily fades away so don’t be so inclined to like me, no Because I’m a villain, why pretend that it isn’t true? Didn’t realize what an awful little devil I could be, so what? You’re a villain, why pretend that it isn’t you It’s nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, because I’m killing someone, maybe you’re killing someone, maybe I’m killing you, maybe You’re killing me, maybe We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side But what if we’re the villains on the other? Am I good, am I bad? ay Are you good, are you bad? ay Someone that I love unconditionally is treated like a dog somewhere else, say Are we good, are we bad? ay What is good, what is bad? ay Someone that you hate unconditionally is the child of a loving family, say So many shades of gray, Oh how could you have lived so long and still not know, oh Good easily fades away so don’t be so inclined to like me, no Because, 1, 2, I’m a villain, why pretend that it isn’t true? Didn’t realize what an awful little devil I could be, so what? You’re a villain, why pretend that it isn’t you? It’s nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, because All villains, why pretend that it isn’t true? They don’t know about the awful little devils acting up, so what? We’re all villains, (Ooohhh) couldn’t be only me and you Just look at all the demons coming out that we forgot I’m killing someone, maybe you’re killing someone, maybe I’m killing you, maybe You’re killing me, maybe We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side But what if we’re the villains on the other? We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side But what if we’re the villains on the other? We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side. :3

*me casually resisting the urge to imagine an animation I’ll never make about the war in the universe of my ocs*

... I never realized I wanted an English cover of this song so bad

I'm a year late but omg, 1:00 is delivered so well I'm going to have this on replay for the next month

This actually goes well with one of my OCs, because she is a cult leader who's footsteps walked in again by another young girl who has recently been given godly powers. Her own child was also been given the same powers and the child knows what's going to happen and is trying to stop the young girl from becoming her mom and save the world. And with that it feels like her mother would be singing this with the young one. I know this was a lot to read sorry about that. EDIT: since people have been asking questions about them i'll tell you their names, Cult leader: Clara the other young girl : TigerLily / Bella The cult leader's daughter : Galica / Aria If you have ANY questions on them don't be afraid to ask ill answer your question(s) as i soon as i can.

AHH YES this has been stuck in my head since your preview oml i love ur visuals evolving with your covers

excuse me but who the hell dislike this, how could you dislike this cover. i don't know about anybody else but this cover so far is my favorite one so far (Korean and english cover) it brings out a different emotion from the original, it feels more free and badass. truthfully this is the first time i came across your channel but i am sold to your content :)

I love this so much. I know I say this a lot in this song, but it feels like a song the true vision would sing to a hero who isn't completely innocent. whether it's from the hero's past or their present actions. great job

not gonna lie that's kinda why i don't really cre about the whole good and evil thing, i don't want to be some savior, nor some destroyer, i don't want to be some martyr, nor some psychopath, i just want to live my life happily without worrying about anything and do what feels right

I sooooo wanna make an animatic for this song holy shit

See the thing about being a hero or a villain is all about perspective. If you have two waring countries each will have their champions, their heroes, but to the other country aka their enemy. The enemy heroes will be demeaned villain’s just because their are fighting for their own country against yours. If your really want to get into shades of gray you can start to look at groups of people who protect all people, vs groups who protect a specific group and not others. Is the group that protects only a specific group of people bad? Technically they are doing good for the people they are protecting but from the prospective of the people they turn away they look bad. Nothing is ever as simple as it seems.

This song reminds me of growing up. Starting off trying and being good and kind and slowly realizing that it isn't worth it to keep trying

Nobody’s good or evil, we’re just people with different perspectives

THIS SOUNDS SO GOOD!!! You did an amazing job!!!

The thing I love about this cover is it has a bit of a different tone while still staying very true to the original

I never actually knew the korean parts lyrics. It sounds cool in all english, it's my favorite song no matter how I hear it it's good, and your bold voice adds so much depth to the song :DD

Oh don't mind me, just been singing this on loup for the past 4 hours around 1:00 ish.. In my horrible singing voice I like but still anxious to sing around anyone but my sister. Geez that was longer than I thought it would turn out... :D

This reminds me of when I was in 5th grade. I quite literally gave up on trying to be good because I found I would get away with being bad whilst I would get punished for trying to do the right thing and explain myself. Yes, my school was a hellhole.

Villains are Just "Heroes with "Broken Hearts"

youtube needs to get better at recommending me things, how come Ive only found this cover now?? literally, somehow the way you sing it makes it FEEL like someone enjoying the stage like a villain. like, pure confidence at your lines. love it. wow. lyrics person did a great job but you took the lines they gave you and made it hit so hard, love this

“ Hell is Empty.. and all the Devils are here.” - William Shakespeare

There is no such thing as a villain or a hero: there’s just a character you like and a character you hate

I’m sorry but the character just turning more and more demonic was so unsettling omg..

You sound angelic and amazing!

We may all be the hero of our own story, but that doesn't mean we aren't the villain of someone else's.

I love it! This is **very** underrated.

I wish this was on Spotify it's my favorite English version of this song

years later watching this i noticed a realistic eye in the 4th picture, the 5th picture,and the 6th picture

Thank you so very much for this Justine! I am a veteran TTRPG player and GM, and was scouring a way to translate a NPC to my party in a meaningful and impactful way that gave subtext to the campaign. This resonated so perfectly with my thoughts that I had to incorporate it into the main plot and a character arc for one my players. The song catches, hooks, and drags you in, I love it!

Justine's mic thank you for another amazing and breathtaking song Have a safe and blessed Sunday🙏🥰

*me when I see a bug in my room:*

Best cover I've seen by far!

you're voice fit so much! this song makes me happy when im on a bad mood thank you.

I think this song is perfect to preform cpr to. The rhythm is pretty accurate. Plus this song is fire

In love with your villain side 👌

Me who didn't read the title: wait this doesn't sound right, wait. . . *this is a banger*

Villains aren't born .... They're made..

This representas The Antihéroes And The Antivillains.

So very iconic, I hope we do have another collision like this. Oh, did I forget? Bravo on this… “Art.” It’s it’s quite..exquisite.

this is so good! I love how you change the words up a bit so you can still maintain the same beat, and you dont just sing the song without care for how it sounds in english.

Hello, I'm 2nd grade student in Korea. I am doing this for my Ethics class. This cover song was one of the best cover songs I ever heard. Bless you and your KZfaq channel!

This song is so accurate, because, in this wold it's... **KILLED OR BE KILLED =)**

Nobody: Literally Nobody: Me, at 12 am get dressed up and dancing while syncing to this bc I don't wanna ruin this masterpiece with my godawful voice: **IMMA VILLAIN ✋😎**

This brings out my inner disny villan lol

Damnnnnn gurl, you can sing!

Your voice scratches my brain in just the perfect way

Quite profound. I love music like this that dances between the realms of the light and the dark. The Ark in which humanity lies on exists here.

So i decided to write lyrics for ppl who wanna copy and paste it so- here! We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side. Oooh, Oooooh, Oooh, Oh. Some things are black and you're sure Some things are white and you're sure You never learned to see the world in color You're such a really good man However that guy is bad Your boring world is really achromatic So many shades of gray Oh how could you have lived so long and still not know? Good easily fades away, So dont be so inclined to like me, no. (because) Im a VILLAIN! Why pretend that it isnt true? Didn't realize what an awful little devil i could be, So what? You're a VILLAIN! Why pretend that it isn't you? Its nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, Because! Im killin' someone, Maybe your killin' someone, Maybe im killin' you, Maybe your killin' me, Maybe. We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side, But what if we're the villains on the other? Am i good? Am i bad? (ay) Are you good? Are you bad? (ay) Someone that i love unconditionally is treated like a dog somewhere else. (say) Are we good? Are we bad? (ay) What is good? What is bad? (ay) Someone that i hate unconditionally is the child of a loving family (say) So many shades of gray Oh how could you have lived so long and still not know? Good easily fades away, So dont be so inclined to like me, no. (because) (one.. two..) Im a VILLAIN! Why pretend that it isnt true? Didn't realize what an awful little devil i could be, So what? You're a VILLAIN! Why pretend that it isn't you? Its nice to meet the demon breathing every breath you breathe, Because! All VILLAINS! Why pretend that it isn't true? They dont know about the awful little devils acting up, So what? We're all VILLAINS! Couldn't be only me and you Just look at all the demons coming out that we forgot Im killin' someone, Maybe your killin' someone, Maybe im killin' you, Maybe your killin' me, Maybe. We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side, But what if we're the villains on the other? We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side, But what if we're the villains on the other? We all pretend to be the heroes on the good side.

Random person: if you had super powers would you be a hero or villain? Me: *play this song*

WHAT it was very good why people doesn't see this!!! I LOVE THIS VERY MUCH💖💓💕💝

Oooh, I just love this cover!

Just got to listening to this. Wish that the original song had a hard-soft beat drop into the last chorus

Of all English covers of this song that I've heard, this truly is the best 😄

my 5th time listing to this song. thats how you know that this song is good

this is absolutely amazing!

This is just my personal opinion and many other people prob have already said this to you but- OMGOSH THIS IS SO GOOD, THE EMOTION IN YOUR VOICE IS ✨PERFECT✨ especially the art is also really nice and idk why people dont appreciate that too

Wow this was great I also just learnt the lyrics and Im practicing the words now. I hope I can learn it so I don't have to keep looking at my written lyrics. But anyways keep up the great work this is wonderful ☺

How'd I go this long without this making it into my feed?!

Who else saw the Dusttale animatic and sought out an English cover of the song?

Me when I see the person in the video at her last villain form thing: hmm this isn’t as bad! Me after I saw she had spiders on her: NOPE NOPE FRICK THIS IM DIPPING

Amazing cover!!!!! Loving the passionate voice acting in the song 😁😁⭐⭐⭐

I would love to hear a remix of this where it's the same concept of grey morality but viewed through a more positive optimistic Lense, "Hero"

OH MY GOD THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL HOW DO PEOPLE SING SOO GOOD AAAA 💖💖💖💖

This is so good!! 😍

Wow this cover is amazing! Your voice fits the song so well

This an amazing cover, you have beautiful voice for real :)

I could completely imagine Dante saying this to Edward during their confrontation at the end of FMA 2003. It suits so well. I mean, Dante was blaming Ed for still believing in the law of equivalent exchange.
