"Be Natural" is Red Velvet's second single, released on October 13, 2014 (though the music video release was on October 9 and promotions of this song had began on the same day) featuring labelmate NCT member Taeyong, who was credited then under SM Entertainment's pre-debut group SM Rookies. It is a remake of the company's former girl group S.E.S.'s song with the very same name.

Background and release

"Be Natural" is a remake of the 2000 song of the same name by the company's former girl group, S.E.S. Red Velvet had also added a more sultry and mature sound to the song. It is described as a neo-soul song with a simple hip hop beat and modern jazz sound. Members Seulgi and Irene previously performed a portion of the remake in a pre-debut video under the company's pre-debut group SMROOKIES as part of promotions of the group.

Teaser images were released in early October, showing all 4 members in suits, hinting at a transition to a more mature concept from their first single, "Happiness".

The music video is shot using the one-take filming technique. In it, they presented a dynamic, seductive and masculine performance with a new dance routine involving chairs that highlighted their flexibility and curves wearing suits.

Chart performance

"Be Natural" debuted at number 33 on the Gaon Singles Chart.

English
Uh baby come come come I’ll be there for you, hmm yeah The world that is in my heart The nature that I can see Everything that I can feel Your smiling face that’s like a child Sometimes I want to move it to my small room Oh so so so Every morning in my dreams, in the same place I can meet you Oh something nobody knows Feel like heaven’s eyes Now I can fly too Sometimes, I wake up And open the window As I fall into a happy daydream You live in the same world as me Your eyes that resemble mine Your many words that are like an essay Your warm voice that I hear You’re the only person That I can find another me On top of the fresh and green streets The faces have their melodies Everything makes me smile Thoughts are disappearing And at this moment, I am happy Suddenly, in last night’s dream I’m walking on that road That was probably not even a dream You live in the same world as me Your eyes that resemble mine Your many words that are like an essay Your warm voice that I hear You’re the only person That I can find another me On my way to meet you I think I’ll see a younger me I want you to hold my small hand I want to talk about you Booming system up up TY Track TY Track Opened the door, I entered and the moment I took my first step, I’ve been by your side till now Opened the window, a bird is flying I’m smiling to myself but I can’t see you anywhere I vaguely fall deep into my body Melting as I close my eyes Do you believe in mystery? I’ll show you everything I’ll give it to you, come closer to me I’ll fill you up with happiness and small hope Baby dolls are spread all over, think simply Look at my childhood once more Dreams become reality but it’s still a dream I am an angel, one two You live in the same world as me (Yeah, uh-uh) Your eyes that resemble mine Your many words that are like an essay Your warm voice that I hear You’re the only person That I can find another me Welcome to my heart inside We gonna get to become one Just holding you forever in my mind The voice that disorients my ears You’re the only person That I can find another me
