KUALA LUMPUR, 23 OCTOBER 2023 – Slowly placing her mark in the music scene, Malaysian rising star Katrina Roshan or better known by her stage name Kat Roshan, returns with another offering for her fans and music lovers alike.

This time Kat Roshan brings forth a masterpiece of a cover called One Day From Today.

Originally released in Korean and written by Park Jeong Wook who also wrote and produced Kat Roshan’s last single Going Crazy Wild, this English version comes in the form of a heartbreak ballad and sings about the process of trying to move on, even though it is difficult and painful.

Kat Roshan stated, she had to translate what was already sung in Korean into English. She also used her own experiences to deepen the meaning of the song. Kat Roshan had sent Mr Park my demo version of this song on piano and guitar as she felt that this type of arrangement would better suit the cover.

As for the writing process of the song, Kat Roshan explained, at first Mr Park was unsure as it was a completely different approach to a ballad. Kat Roshan was so afraid because she really wanted to impress Mr Park, but when he started inputting his own ideas and attempted to reproduce what she had in mind, magic started happening. The song started to grow on him as well.

According to Kat Roshan she also had to fly to Korea to record the songs (just like her previous single Going Crazy Wild).

Kat Roshan also added, the recording process was quite difficult as there were times when she struggled to really convey the meaning of the song and not add too many riffs at the end of the phrases. She had to dial back a lot of the complicated riffs as this was a simple but powerful song.

Mr Park was amazing to work with although he was very serious at times. But he was fast and efficient when directing her on how to sing the song.

The recording also came with some challenges.

Kat Roshan explained that it was quite difficult to translate this song as it is a sad ballad. She needed to understand the full meaning and listen to the original singer’s emotions to convey the same heartbreak in the song.

What was translated using Google translate was not grammatically correct therefore she really had to make sure what she wrote, mirrored what the original Korean song meant.

Kat Roshan admits that the song has grown on her as it has been about a year since the recording, and she can’t wait for it to be released.

Kat Roshan hopes that this song will be successful in its own style as a ballad and that the lyrics will resonate with listeners, giving them hope and mental strength that there will be a chance to move on from the challenges they face.
