In a song that obviously had its production done by Bruno Mars (that beat reminded me of Moonshine and Treasure meshed together), Taemin is aching for the love of his lady that he can hardly wait for her to pick up the phone and heads out to her place.
What really stands out is the lyrics, which almost complete go from double to single entendre thanks to the R-rated lyrics that he chooses to use when describing kissing her “lips”. Initially, we thought the number was referring to the phone number, but we realized that he talking he could also be talking about the buzzer to her apartment. The fact there is that potential double meaning adds a nice layer to the track. His vocals aren’t bad either, although his tone is a little breathy at times. It’s still a pretty solid effort.
As for the video…we dig it, but what the hell does that storyline have to do with the song?
It seems that pop!gasa has our number…
Lyrics:
After waking up alone on a dark night
Like a habit, I’m thinking of you and I’m feeling freaky
I try calling you but there’s no answer
I’m getting impatient so I’m going to you
I’m thinking of you, deeply embedded in me
Then kiss your lips
Dangerously spreading
My sharpened heart has made this
The end of this long night is filled with you in the end
Your body temperature that I could feel with my fingers
Your small hand that was always warm
I’m holding onto the faded memories
With a burning heart, looking for you girl
Press your number again
Answer me
Even if you left now, it’s only for a moment
That’s how I feel, let me listen again
Whisper in my ear once again
Press Press Press Press
My favorite place
Your red lips have tightly shut
Your kiss has left me
In this long silence
Useless monlogues keep increasing
I call and call but the answers are decreasing
Where are you right now?
Please come back to me
Your breath was sweeter than honey
Your hair used to tickle me
I’m holding onto the fleeting memories
With a burning heart, looking for you girl
Press your number again
Answer me
Even if you left now, it’s only for a moment
That’s how I feel, let me listen again
Whisper in my ear once again
Press My Number, answer me
Do it fast do it slow
You control the tempo
Feel it, listen to it, my heart
I’ll match it with yours, press
I always thought break ups were easy
But why isn’t it easy with you?
When did this become so deep?
Oh girl there’s something about you
I hope, I hope, I hope ooh
I want you again
Say it, say it, say it
All night, only your name
I hope, I hope, I hope
Oh girl, I hope your heart finds me
All I need is you
Press your number again
Answer me
Even if you left now, it’s only for a moment
That’s how I feel, let me listen again
Whisper in my ear once again
Press My Number, answer me
Do it fast do it slow
You control the tempo
Feel it, listen to it
Girl there’s something about it
I hope, I hope, I hope ooh
I want you again
Say it, say it, say it
All night, only your name
I hope, I hope, I hope
Oh girl, I hope your heart finds me
All I need is you
Just Press It
