Intoxicating Love: A Dive into TWICE's 'Alcohol-Free'

TWICE's 'Alcohol-Free' is a playful and romantic track that uses the metaphor of being intoxicated to describe the heady, euphoric feelings of being in love. The song opens with the members of TWICE describing a magical change that happens when they are with their love interest. They find themselves smiling for no reason and feeling energized even after staying up all night. The lyrics suggest that love has the power to erase other thoughts and amplify emotions, making the heart beat louder and love seem easy. The repeated line 'That’s what you do to me' emphasizes the transformative effect the other person has on them.

The chorus cleverly plays with the concept of being 'alcohol free' yet feeling drunk. The members sing about not having consumed any alcohol but feeling inebriated when they are with their significant other. The intoxication they refer to is caused by the love and attention they receive, as seen in the line '날 보는 네 눈빛 때문에' ('because of the way you look at me'). The song lists various alcoholic beverages, likening the person's gaze to champagne, wine, tequila, and other drinks, suggesting that their presence is as potent and delightful as these drinks.

TWICE, known for their catchy tunes and vibrant performances, infuses 'Alcohol-Free' with a light and breezy feel, matching the song's summer vibe. The rap section adds a playful twist, noting that the 'alcohol' content is '0.0%' yet it still makes them lose their way and feel hungover. This paradoxical effect underscores the song's theme that love is a powerful, intoxicating force that can make one feel elated and disoriented, much like alcohol, but without any of the negative side effects. The song's upbeat tempo and tropical rhythms make it a perfect anthem for a summer romance, capturing the sweet and dizzying sensation of falling in love.
