The song was written and produced by Teddy Park. According to the CEO of YG Entertainment, Yang Hyun Suk, "2NE1’s new song counter feeds the people with an analogue sound unlike the majority who used strong electronics and house music and maybe that is why Will I. Am have found it interesting".[1] They also released teasers of "Lonely" starting with CL and Minzy on May 9, and Dara and Bom on May 10. The music video was released on May 11, 2011.[2]

Background [link]
The music video for "Lonely" was filmed April 27, 2011, directed by Han Samin, who directed the music video for Big Bang's fourth mini-special album's title song, "Love Song". It was posted on their Youtube account on May 11, 2011.
Synopsis [link]
The four band members played tragic female heroines, in despair from love and separation. CL, wearing a brightly coloured leather jacket, was seized by grief. Sandara Park extended the baton of separation. The voice of Park Bom, is immersed in gloom added to the realistic acting of the youngest, Minzy, after a break up. The story is quite unusual, and forms into one, as the four members together act as one female.
Reception [link]
Star News, whose reporter was on the scene of the video shoot, commented on that "2NE1 showed their natural acting abilities...The realistic movements of the members, trying to express their loneliness amongst a crowd, were the highlight. Sandara Park evoked a feminine essence to her with her red leather jacket, and her hair swept to one side. The expressions that Minji, who was absorbed in gloom, put on with her eyes added to the deep feelings of separation. More than anything, the developing members' styling and auras really gave off a unique feeling."[4]

History
2012: Debut, Doggedly, Russian Roulette and Lonely
In the beginning of 2012, B2M Entertainment announced that they would debut a girl group. Their name is a reference to Spica, the brightest star in the constellation of Virgo. On January 10, 2012, the group released their first digital single, "Doggedly" (독하게; also translated "Potently"). The music video sparked high interest, as their fellow label-mate Lee Hyori made an appearance.
On January 31, B2M Entertainment announced that the group would have their formal debut with a mini-album, titled Russian Roulette. The full-length music video was released on February 7. Promotions for "Russian Roulette" began two days later on M! Countdown. The lyrics of the song were later modified in order to meet MBC's broadcasting standards. The group released a repackaged extended play entitled Painkiller on March 29, promoting the title track of the same name.
Lonely (Merril Bainbridge song)
"Lonely" is a pop song written by Merril Bainbridge and Owen Bolwell, produced by Siew for Bainbridge's second album Between the Days (1998). It was released as the album's first single in Australia in April 1998 and the United States and Japan in August 1998 (see 1998 in music) as a CD single. The bridge of the song samples the lyrics from the nursery rhyme "Georgie Porgie".
The song made its debut to the Australian ARIA Singles Chart at number seventy-four, making the song Bainbridge's fifth song to reach the top one hundred. On its second week it fell three places to seventy-seven but by the next week the song jumped nine places to sixty-eight and after six weeks of being in the chart it broke the top fifty at number forty-eight. After two weeks of being in the top fifty the song peaked at its peak position in Australia at number forty, then dropping out of the top fifty the next week. The song spent a total of three weeks in the top fifty and seventeen weeks in the top one hundred.

Acid (computer virus)
Acid is a computer virus which infects .COM and .EXE files including command.com. Each time an infected file is executed, Acid infects all of the .EXE files in the current directory. Later, if an infected file is executed, it infects the .COM files in the current directory. Programs infected with Acid will have had the first 792 bytes of the host program overwritten with Acid's own code. There will be no file length increase unless the original host program was smaller than 792 bytes, in which case it will become 792 bytes in length. The program's date and time in the DOS disk directory listing will not be altered.

302 Acid
302 Acid is a music group from Washington, D.C., USA, formed by Doug Kallmeyer and Justin Mader in 2002. It currently includes Doug Kallmeyer (strings, samples, projections), Justin Mader (samples, projections).
Video projections are a component of their live performances, and their music has improvisatory elements. Notable in the sound is Kallmeyer's use of an electric double bass.
The group released an EP entitled Ailanthus Altissima on the Hackshop Records label in 2004, and subsequently a full-length album 302 acid0005 on the Nottingham-based Em:t Records label in 2005. The title of the latter release is in accord with em:t's naming conventions, but the work contained in the release is actually titled Even Calls. A limited CD-R of their performance at the Big Chill music festival was also released by Em:t. The group is currently working on a new album. The group has toured in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K., and has performed several live radio broadcasts.
The group took their name from an NFPA 704 hazard placard for hydrochloric acid that can be frequently seen when traveling the Washington Metro system.

Lonely Side
by: Ingrid Lucia & The Flying NeutrinosWhen the parties spin too fast
and the edge is all worn smooth
when you seek a sweet repast
with a highball glass
two parts pity to one gin-soaked youth
I think you'll know.
When all your new friends just smile
and tell you of your charms
and you're thinking all the while
of their carefree guile
and how it once set off alarms
I think you'll know
I hope you'll know
Baby, it's only
a tattered paper crown
when you're lonely on that lonely
side of town.
Now try not to feel the rush
of a memory misbehave;
a twilight's lilac blush,
that windswept summer's crush
and the honeysuckle nights she gave
Chorus
Dozens of stars in the sky
go on shining all alone
They don't give a damn
'bout the hows and the whys of love
Baby it's only a tattered paper crown
you might as well face it
She's had her last go round
and you're on that lonely
