NANON (นนน) Korapat has one of my favorite voices in Thailand — full stop. There’s something magnetic about the way he sings, as if he’s pouring out pieces of his soul with every line. You can hear the passion, the love, and the emotion in every note. His debut album The Secrets of the Universe (2023) remains one of the finest T-pop releases in recent memory — a collection that felt dreamlike, reflective, and deeply personal. Thematically inspired by The Little Prince, that album touched on innocence and wonder. Even if you didn’t understand every word (and trust me, my Thai is far from perfect), you could feel it. 

It was magic.

Two years later, NANON has returned with something darker — more complex — and honestly, more human. Released through Riser Music, his sophomore album, SEVEN, trades cosmic wonder for earthly temptation. Built around the seven deadly sins, it’s a concept record that explores love, ego, and desire through seven sharp, emotionally charged tracks. If Secrets of the Universe was about looking up at the stars, SEVEN is about staring straight into the mirror.

｢Make You Mine｣

A strong start, ｢Make You Mine｣ pulls the listener into the dark underbelly of what it means to be in lust – with someone you have no business being even in-like with. The lyrics read like a whispered confession between firelight and shadow.

 “It’s not love — it’s just desire that binds our disloyal hearts.”

There’s something raw and almost dangerous in the way Nanon delivers the vocals — seductive, yet ashamed of how natural temptation feels.

What makes the track so effective is the emotional duality: it’s sexy, yes, but also self-aware. Nanon isn’t glorifying the sin — he’s humanizing it. You can feel the tension between morality and instinct, guilt and pleasure. It’s the sound of two souls circling the flame, knowing they’ll get burned, but stepping closer anyway. Make You Mine doesn’t just open the album — it tempts you into it.

｢คนไม่ดี (Bad)｣

This is the sound of love turning into hunger — ｢Bad｣a song about wanting to be loved so deeply that it becomes dangerous. It’s Greed’s twin flame: part Pride, part desperation. The lyrics are painfully honest —

“I just want to swallow love, to keep it all for myself.”

There’s no villain here, only someone who’s been left alone for too long, now clutching at affection like oxygen.

What makes Bad so special is its self-awareness. He knows this kind of love isn’t fair — that it consumes rather than shares — but he can’t help it. It’s the ache of someone who’s finally tasted love and refuses to let it go. The guitars swell, the chorus soars, and you can feel the confession burning. It’s a beautiful contradiction: dark, needy, and honest enough to hurt.By the end, Bad doesn’t feel like a warning — it feels like a mirror. A reminder that sometimes being “good” isn’t the same as being whole.

｢พอใจ (Dissatisfied)｣

This song explores Greed disguised as love. It’s that quiet, haunting kind — which is even more dangerous.

The song opens with gentle reflection — a narrator who once believed that love, when found, would complete them. The verses are tender, almost dreamlike, as Nanon’s voice floats through lines about learning what “good love” really means. His tone is warm and grateful — until the chorus hits, and the illusion fractures.

When he sings “ฉันยังไม่พอใจ — I’m still not satisfied,” the music swells like a restless current of pop-rock angst.

The repetition of “มันต้องมากเท่าไหร่” (How much more will it take?) — is confessional, almost prayer-like. You can hear the ache in his delivery, a kind of self-awareness that makes the song sting deeper. It’s clear that the song isn’t blaming love at all— it’s blaming of self. Polished yet raw, it’s an anthem for anyone who’s ever chased satisfaction and found only reflection. ｢Dissatisfied｣ is Greed in its most human form — not selfish, fragile.

｢ ไม่อยากรัก (Shiftless)｣

My favorite song from the album, ｢Shiftless｣ feels like the morning after an emotional storm – the ache of being too tired to let go, even when you know, the relationship has ended, and love is gone. But, no matter how many times they’re pushed away, they stay. Not because of hope, but because they’ve already given everything.

“I don’t want to love someone new. I’ve already given my heart away — there’s nothing left.”

It’s beautifully tragic.

In the music video, that feeling becomes visual poetry. Set against a crumbling, apocalyptic world — part love story, part survival — Nanon plays a man torn between escape and devotion. His lover pushes him away, insisting he leave before the world collapses. But he doesn’t. He can’t. The tagline says it all: “Staying hurts, but leaving hurts more.” The dystopian backdrop turns the heartbreak into metaphor — love as an infection, devotion as a slow undoing.

What makes Shiftless so devastating is its quiet honesty. It’s not about drama or betrayal — it’s about exhaustion. The kind that comes from loving someone so completely, there’s nothing left to rebuild with. This is Sloth as surrender: not apathy, but the soft, devastating acceptance that you’ve reached the end — and you’re still not ready to move on.

｢ จำไม่ดีโทษทีใหญ่ (Fake U)｣

After the quiet heartbreak of Shiftless, ｢Fake U｣doesn’t just simmer – it explodes, kicking the door open with teeth bared and guitars blazing. It’s Wrath in its most unapologetic, sarcastic form — the moment when hurt turns into power, and the filter comes off completely.

“If you can’t dance, don’t blame the flute.”

Translation? Don’t project your failures onto someone else — own them.

This is one of the album’s standout rock anthems — but underneath the fury, it’s also a song about liberation. There’s a strange joy in the chaos — a sense that after all the heartbreak, Nanon has finally found his voice again, and he’s ready to scream. His vocals snarl and soar in equal measure, balancing anger with charisma. It’s one of the best tracks on the album.

｢ทำไมไม่เป็นฉัน (Why, Why, Why?!)｣

Teaming up with Thai alt-metal heavyweights The Darkest Romance, Nanon dives head-first into the sin of Envy — that desperate, teeth-gritting question we’ve all asked at least once: Why not me?

The duet between Nanon and The Darkest Romance’s frontman feels like a conversation between self-doubt and rage. Nanon’s lines ache with exhaustion — “I gave it everything. Why isn’t it enough?”

While TDR counters with snarling defiance, spitting, “I’m jealous, I admit it.”

It’s blistering, cathartic, and surprisingly emotional.

The collaboration itself is genius: Nanon’s polished pop-rock tone cuts through the chaos like a blade of light, while The Darkest Romance bring the darkness, the grit, the frustration that pulses beneath every chord. The contrast makes the song hit harder — like watching a saint and a sinner scream the same prayer for love, only to realize neither gets it. ｢Why, Why, Why?!｣ is easily one of the album’s biggest, boldest bangers.

｢ ฉันอยู่ดี (It’s Me)｣

The album closes with a song about self-pride – but not boastful. It’s the pride earned after surviving everything that tried to break you. I

The lyrics are pure self-realization:

“No one’s gonna take my pride away… Nothing’s gonna break my dignity.”

You can feel that he’s been through every sin the album explored — envy, gluttony, greed, lust, wrath, envy — and come out on the other side, scarred but standing. Stronger.

｢It’s Me｣ closes SEVEN not with fireworks but with clarity. It’s the redemption point — the moment when sin turns to self-awareness. After everything comes the courage to love yourself exactly as you are.

In that sense, SEVEN isn’t an album about sin at all. It’s about being human — flawed, restless, but still radiant in the end.

Like The Secrets of the Universe, this record transcends language. You don’t have to understand every lyric to feel the emotion Nanon is invoking – because at his core he’s a true vocalist.

The album is brilliant. You can order the album on all digital / streaming platforms. Myself, I recommend Qobuz which offers a 24-Bit/48 kHzStereo download in all formats.

There will be more Nanon soon so…
