1) TEN, Seoul (K-Pop & C-Pop)
Chittaphon Leechaiyapornkul (born on February 27, 1996), better known by his stage name TEN (Korean:텐, Chinese:李永钦), is a Thai singer and dancer of Chinese descent based in South Korea. He is best known as a member of the boy group NCT (including the sub-units NCT U , WayV and WayV-TEN&YANGYANG). He is also a member of the SM Entertainment's project "supergroup" SuperM with other artists from the same label.
Ten released his first solo single "몽중몽; Dream In A Dream" on April 7th, 2017. He followed this up a year later with single "New Heroes" which released on April 6th, 2018. On August 10, 2021, three years since his last solo song, Ten released "Paint Me Naked" through SM Station. During this time, he also released and promoted a unit single with WayV member YangYang, "Low Low" on August 17, 2021. On October 26, 2022, Ten released his fourth digital single, "Birthday," an R&B dance genre song that is the fifth release of NCT LAB, a sub-project of STATION.
On February 13, 2024, after much anticipation, Ten released TEN, his debut mini album. Featuring six tracks, including title track "Nightwalker", the album topped the iTunes charts of 18 countries, landing in the top 20 of thirty countries around the world. To support the album, Ten held several solo fan concerts, each concert selling out almost instantly.
2) Ten, United Kingdom ( hard rock )
The debut album was crafted by the late producer Mike Stone. It was released in May 1996 selling 20'000 copies in Japan where the group immediately gained a rabid following.
This set the wheels in motion for the recording of a second album, 'In The Name Of The Rose', that was released later the same year and began work on a third album in 1997.
A year ending trek to Japan resulted in the group's Japanese label, Zero Corporation, releasing a double live package in early 1998.
The third album, The Robe, was a huge step forward in the sound of TEN, leading strongly towards epic and majestic atmospheres and influences. Songs like the title track, "Arcadia" and "Ten Fathoms Deep" are considered to be amongst the best expressions of the British hard rock of the 90's.
However, their major commercial success - especially in Europe - came with their following album Spellbound, in 1999. The record had all the elements which decreed the vast success of TEN within the hard rock fans: melody and class, but also power and epic atmospheres, inherited by the tradition of the British bands of the 70's such as Rainbow, Thin Lizzy and UFO.
A few line-up changes (most notably Steve McKenna taking on bass duties and Don Airey and Paul Hodson later on keyboards) did not really change the musical styles and success of the band that also gathered a great exposure and acclaim with the following release Babylon, a concept album based on a futuristic story of a computer programmer and his tragic love affair.
The following two records Far Beyond the World(2001) and Return to Evermore (2004, which saw the début of the new guitar ace Chris Francis, taking the place of Vinny Burns) served only to solidify the band’s reputation for great music and exquisite arrangements in great melodic hard rock fashion.
To mark the band’s 10th anniversary, a two disc album The Essential Collection was issued in January 2006, comprising the best Rockers and Ballads re-recorded in the style of how the band currently play their music.
Ten’s most recent appearance was in March this year at the Atarfe Vega Rock Festival in Spain, where they appeared to great critical acclaim along side WASP, Twisted Sister and Stryper.
The next album released was "The Twilight Chronicles". It is a mixture of rock and ballads with a strong atmospheric mood and lyrics that tell tales of love, lust, death, glory, revenge and darkness.
Ten's latest album was released in Japan in January 2011, with European & US release following in February 2011. The album is called "Stormwarning", and is an inspiration for tales of glory, war, and death and of course love.. And even for the well acquainted, Ten re-ignite memories of their earlier albums “The Name of The Rose” and “Spellbound”.
“Stormwarning” is Ten’s ninth original studio album. Considered by many fans and critics to be the best expression of British Classic Hard Rock in the nineties, Ten have won several reader’s charts in BURRN magazine (Japan’s leading HR / HM publication) and entered the sales charts in Germany as well Japan.

Ten Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Insight screams in silence,
Steeped in half-light, bleeding beyond
It bleeds beyond
In this cold embrace
Untold scenes of violence
Breech this stark night, leading me on
Flesh from the bones of a dream,
Blood rushing cold through enamoured veins,
Fear and my plight ignite this synchronicity
Out of control, to extremes,
Pushing like blows from a hammer slain,
I feel the lighting strike, it's electricity
Dreamtide far away,
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Dreamtide tourniquet,
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Spectral mascuerade,
Bathed in streams of twilight
Echoes of the fire and the flames
No one controls the abyss,
Night after night with this callous fate,
I am the endless fight, the power, the entity,
The entity,
I am the shape in the mist,
The tormented soul from a shallow grave,
I am the shallow cast across the centuries,
Dreamtide far away,
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Dreamtide tourniquet,
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Dreamtide far away,
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Dreamtide tourniquet,
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Dreamtide far away,
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Dreamtide tourniquet,
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Dreamtide far away,
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Dreamtide tourniquet,
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Dreamtide
Dreamtide
The song "Dreamtide" by Ten paints a vivid picture of the struggles of an individual as they battle their inner demons. The lyrics speak of a night that seems endless, with the singer caught in a cold embrace and surrounded by scenes of violence. They feel like they are out of control, being pushed to extremes, and the fear and pain ignite a synchronicity within them that they cannot escape from. They are the endless fight, the power, the entity, the shape in the mist, and the tormented soul, all at the same time.
Despite the darkness that surrounds them, the singer still seems to hold onto an elusive hope that they call the "Dreamtide". This seems to be their guiding light, a force that is far away but still within reach. It is something that is burying the magi's godless underworld, severing the last cries, and leading them towards a brighter future.
The lyrics in "Dreamtide" are striking, with a mix of imagery that hints at both hope and despair. There are references to violence, fear, and pain, but there is also a sense of strength, power, and a will to survive. The song seems to be about the struggle to find one's inner strength in the face of extreme adversity.
Line by Line Meaning
Midnight comes and stays,
The time of darkness and stillness arrives and persists.
Insight screams in silence,
The truth is evident but unspoken.
Steeped in half-light, bleeding beyond
In a state of partial illumination, and the situation is becoming worse.
It bleeds beyond
The situation is worsening and going out of control.
In this cold embrace
In a state of loneliness and isolation.
Untold scenes of violence
Unwitnessed acts of aggression and brutality.
Breech this stark night, leading me on
Breaking through the emptiness, and urging me forward.
It leads me on
The situation keeps progressing, and I have no choice but to follow.
Flesh from the bones of a dream,
The remnants of a faded aspiration.
Blood rushing cold through enamoured veins,
A detached sense of passion and enthusiasm.
Fear and my plight ignite this synchronicity
My apprehension and troubles fuel this connection.
Out of control, to extremes,
Unrestrained and taken to the limit.
Pushing like blows from a hammer slain,
Forcing my way through as if striking with a weapon.
I feel the lighting strike, it's electricity
Sudden inspiration and energy electrify me.
Dreamtide far away,
The ideal state is distant and inaccessible.
Burying the magi's godless underworld
Suppressing the negative aspects and influences of life.
Dreamtide tourniquet,
The desired state serves as a cure for the pain and wounds of reality.
Severing the last cries, lost beyond the words
Silencing the final laments of those who cannot express themselves.
Spectral mascuerade,
A haunting and ghostly parade.
Bathed in streams of twilight
Immersed in the light and darkness of the crepuscule.
Echoes of the fire and the flames
The lingering sounds of passion and destruction.
No one controls the abyss,
The unknown and uncontrollable force dominates.
Night after night with this callous fate,
Repetitive experiences of cruelty and disregard for life.
I am the endless fight, the power, the entity,
I embody the constant struggle, the capability, and the essence of existence.
The entity,
I am the principal and indivisible component of reality.
I am the shape in the mist,
I am the form emerging through obscurity and uncertainty.
The tormented soul from a shallow grave,
The suffering spirit emerging from an unfulfilling existence.
I am the shallow cast across the centuries,
I am the superficial impression created throughout history.
Dreamtide
The desired state of being, the ideal destination.
