Don't
Ed Sheeran곡 소개
연인이 같은 호텔에 묵던 친구와 잠자리를 갖는 배신을 겪고, 그 분노를 곱씹어 쓴 곡입니다. 에드 시런은 이 노래가 실제 있었던 일이라고 직접 밝히면서도 상대가 누구인지는 끝내 입에 올리지 않았습니다. 도입부는 늦은 밤 함께 술을 마시고 영화를 보며 가까워지는 두 사람의 풋풋한 장면으로 시작합니다. 'I'd rather put on a film with you and sit on the couch' 같은 구절에서 보이듯, 한때는 분명 다정했던 관계였습니다.
그러나 곡이 진행될수록 톤은 차갑게 돌아섭니다. 같은 호텔 같은 층에 머물던 그녀가 다른 남자와 사라진 정황이 적나라하게 펼쳐지고, 후렴의 'Don't - with my love / That heart is so cold'는 내 사랑을 가지고 장난치지 말라는 단호한 경고로 꽂힙니다. 'I thought you were different' — 너만은 다를 줄 알았다는 한마디에, 환상이 깨진 자의 환멸이 응축돼 있습니다.
어쿠스틱 발라드로 알려진 그의 이미지와 달리, Don't은 R&B·힙합 색이 짙은 미디엄 그루브 위에서 비아냥과 분노를 직설적으로 쏟아내는 결별의 곡입니다. 'Ah-lah-m-lah-lah'라는 무심한 후렴 추임새가 오히려 상처를 무덤덤하게 흘려보내려는 화자의 태도를 드러냅니다.
2014년 앨범 'x'(멀티플라이)에 수록된 이 곡은 에드 시런과 베니 블랑코가 함께 쓰고 릭 루빈·베니 블랑코가 프로듀싱했습니다. 빌보드 핫 100 9위에 오르며 그에게 첫 미국 톱10 싱글을 안겼고, 영국 싱글 차트 8위를 기록했습니다. 한 음악가와 얽힌 삼각관계 소문이 뒤따랐으나 당사자들이 부인했고, 시런 역시 특정 인물을 지목하지 않아 그 부분은 어디까지나 소문으로 남아 있습니다.
