About This Track
At 2 a.m., IVE invite you into a late-night conversation where inhibitions dissolve and honesty flows more freely. 'Off The Record' frames intimacy as a space where masks come off, where the ordinary routines of restaurants and films give way to something more charged and clandestine. The song moves between whispered confidences and bolder admissions, each verse peeling back another layer of restraint. The track builds its appeal on a simple but effective tension: the thrill of saying things that wouldn't survive daylight, of wanting something forbidden precisely because it is. IVE navigate this with a knowing tone, neither apologetic nor reckless, treating desire and vulnerability as natural facts of late-night connection rather than guilty secrets. The repetition of "this late night conversation" anchors the song's central idea, a refrain that refuses to let the moment end or fade into morning.
"Off The Record" is a single by IVE, from the album I'VE MINE - EP, released 12th October 2023. The track is 3:09 long. It's filed under K-Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about IVE.

The K-pop group return with their third mini-album featuring 'Attitude' and 'Rebel Heart' as title tracks, exploring themes of empathy.

The album and video mark their first release of 2024.

Taking on Icona Pop's 2013 single and giving it its own party bop twist, South Korean girl group IVE are delivering on their sky-high promise.

‘Speak Like You Talk’. ‘Fake History’. ‘The Blackest Beautiful’. letlive. have always asked questions with their music. With ‘If I’m The Devil…’, that exchange is far from over.
