Release

On February 15, S.M. Entertainment released a teaser of the "I Got Love" video, released on February 17 as a pre-single of My Voice. After announcing the release of Taeyeon's first album, S.M. began releasing teasers of My Voice songs, beginning with the song "Love In Color" on February 20th. The album was released on February 28, 2017, along with the song's first single from the album, "Fine".[2] The album was re-released on April 5, 2017 as a deluxe edition, 3 new songs and a new track title "Make Me Love You" and with its single "11:11" which was released the previous year as a digital single.[3]

Singles

The album features two singles and three video clips, one for the main single "Fine", another for the album's pre-single "I Got Love" and another for the single from the deluxe version of the album titled "Make Me Love You".[3] The release of "I Got Love" was marked by the dark and sensual visual that Taeyeon had not yet shown to the public.[4] In "Fine", Taeyeon shows his sensitive side, as already shown in previous releases, having the clip with a story that resembles that of his previous single, "11:11". The reissue single "Make Me Love You" was released on April 5, 2017 next to the music video.
