Man Who Sold The World

A song written and performed by the British rock musician, David Bowie. It is the title track of his third album, released in 1970.

It was later re-popularized and introduced to a new generation by Nirvana's cover on their MTV Unplugged in New York album.

Also covering the song was the Scottish singer Lulu in 1974. It was released as a single, and provided the singer with a hit. Bowie not only produced this version, but also played a saxophone solo on it.

The song was then covered by American singer Richard Barone in 1987 on his influential, proto-Chamber Pop solo debut album, Cool Blue Halo. The Hip-hop group 3MG samples the Nirvana version in their song 2010. The psychedelic band Here & Now covered the song on their 1983 album "Fantasy Shift".

(Chorus)
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
Youre face to face
With the man who sold the world.

King of Sold out

It means: Jungkook
Jungkook is the king of sold out because he literally sold out everything he wore in his VLive, BTS BOMB, or Run BTS
킹 오브 솔드 아웃: 정국
정국이가 품절의 왕인 이유는브이라이브나 방탄밤, 달방에 입은 옷이나 화장품, 심지어는 향수까지 다 팔어버리기 때문...

The King of Sold out scored another goal, armies buying every single thing that he wore in a VOGUE magazine shoot.
아미들은 품절의 왕이신 정국님이 방탄밤 100화에 입은 옷을 모두 품절시켰닿ㅎㅎ

i'm sold

When you are convinced of/by something.

At first I wasn't certain whether Drake's album would go platinum but after listening to it and considering how good it is, I'm sold it will!

The Game is to be sold, not to be told

The game is to be sold, NOT to be told. Let me explain; you are meant to make money when you are in the game but you are not suppose to openly discuss the game you are in. This is due to the fact that it will eventually lead to you being ejected from the game. For you see, when you are a player in the game, all the other players in the game have no choice but to "player hate" on you. There is a direct correlation to the amount of hate you receive from other players in the game with how much "weight" you carry in the game. If you are "heavy" in the game, expect a proportional amount of hate from other players in the game. The only way to limit the amount of "player haters" is to either: not discuss the game you are in (it is not to be told), or to take player haters out the Game (i.e. see them deceased). If you do go against this rule of the game and you are ejected from the game, you must realize that it will be extremely difficult to re-enter the game. This is due to another fundamental rule of the game: The game does not wait. Given that the game does not wait and that you have been ejected from the game, you will have to seriously play catch up to re-enter the game. In some instances, it is impossible to re-enter the game. I hope this clarifies the rule about the game being sold and not told.

To make money in a secretive fashion. IE: The game is to be sold, not to be told.

truth be sold

A malapropism of the phrase "truth be told", which is used in situations where the "truth" in question is of the nature of a financial gain.

Tom - "If that band wanted to retain their integrity, they shouldn't have signed to Sony / BMG, and released a pop album"
Doug - "Truth be sold."

I sold my soul just for this mug

This is one of the many things you could use to buy the urban dictionary mug!
Instead of wasting your hard earned money, you wasted something else instead!

"Bob, why does your mug say you sold your soul for it?"
"Because I sold my soul just for this mug"
