I just heard and seen the song. It's so, so awesome. I've always been a big fan of LedApple because their songs are different yet they have everything it needs to also sell. This song is completely perfect. I don't think I can look as deep as finding something that doesn't seem right. The MV is all about superficiality. As an idol, you practically become the puppet of a master who knows (or doesn't) how to get benefits out of it. Sincerely, to me the whole concept for the music video runs deeper than to most people because I get to see some part of what I do into it. The guys look awesome with their new hair colours. HanByul looks so hot and Kwangyeon looks really handsome too. He's really awesome and I admire his talent. These guys have actual ytalent you know and it's not because I'm a fan but because they play instruments very well and it's a proven fact already. The backgrounds look interesting and the fact that they used some plot, even if it's really rough around the edges, it's still satisfactory.
Now, if we get into the song as it is...it's quite common but it has some very good places that sound very pleasurable to the ear and makes you automatically enjoy the song. If you think closely, that's how their songs are usually. You like them yet you can't express why and that's because of those parts. It's not obvious so listen closely to the rhythm. But, it is original and that's what I always liked about them. Their songs are well thought into.
When it comes to being a band and also having some moves here and there, LedApple is definitely on top of the charts. They're really smart and choose well the moves so that the vocalists are able to sing and concentrate equally on both doing their jobs as singer and dancing a little . The performance changes drastically and it's a pleasure to watch them. This time, the dance seems a little off because it looks kind of girly but they still pull it off good enough...and manly enough.
Alright, like I said before, this summer has been full with awesome comebacks. Bands tried to be even more passionate and changed their look to be even hotter. Firstly, I would like to say that it might be a little bit hard for the idols to work so hard. I mean, have you seen some of the coreographies? In MV's they seem fresh, of course, but on stage things get a little hard when it comes to singing.
Anyway, one of my favourites (and it seems a lot of fans agree) comeback is Nu'EST's Action. The video is awesome and the song is really powerful. The boys have a badass look and attitude but at the same time, the song talks about something teenagers go through. I never did but blending with the crowd has always been a problem for some of my friends...like everyone is unique and they should act like themselves, even if that means they stand out. So, it's one hell of a song and I had a lot of expectations from it and sincerely, they didn't disappoint.
Another good comeback (though it's not really a comeback but more of a single, I guess), though not that spectacular, in my view is A-JAX's Hot Game. The song resembles Low by Flo Rida a lot and it's so, so obvious that it hurts. However, the dance is kinda cute and they are cute. The beats are easy to follow and it stucks into your head no matter what. It's really hard to get it out of your head, believe me. The video is a little bit weird. I mean, ok, I get it, it's about a game the girl who plays around some 'hot' game but I believe the idea itself could have been differently approached. Like the director should have used some more elements. And for me, as a girl with a different mentality, what the MV resemble is not a 'hot game'.
Another, and very recent comeback, is Beast's Midnight. Ok, I love Yoseob's look and DongWoon's but what's with that red hair on HyunSeung. Maybe some of you don't agree with me but it's such a powerful and blinding colour. It doesn't look good on him and truthfully speaking, I don't like the hairstyle either. Also, I don't like JunHyung's hairstyle. However, the song is refreshing. The video is colourful and good (surprisingly) and it gets you to relax and listen to their smooth voices. It has a slower rhythm and it sounds very good.
T-ara's Day by Day is another awesome comeback. The song is calm and the video is a little dark but it has that thing that gets you to like it. It's one of my favourites songs and I enjoy their voices in it. They seem smoother and their image is also more mature. I like that. Like I said, the MV is darker in its idea but also really well made. It reminds me of Final Fantasy with those costumes and everything.
LedApple's comeback with Run to You is also good. But I have this feeling that either Yonghwa composed the song for them either they got inspired by CN Blue because it sounds exactly like their music. I don't say it doesn't sound good, because it definitely does and I always liked LedApple's songs, but I guess the influence is very obvious. The dance is catchy but very silly. They look a little bit silly too but I still like them. I like that they didn't change and they chose to go steady with their style. The video is also silly but I enjoyed it a lot.
ZE:A's Aftermath is an awesome song. I love the chorus and the intro and everything about the song. I like their moves and the guys look really good. I love the idea for the MV and how it was directed. I don't think I have bad things to say about it. I'm not a fan of ZE:A but this song is just so awesome. It's exactly what I'm listening to right now. Ok, maybe their fashion it's not really on my taste but that's something small.
Ok, another one. I don't know if it's his comeback or not (I just know he's in 2PM) , I just heard about his solo songs! Jang Woo Yeong is something. I watched him on Inkigayo and he was more than fantastic. The song, Sexy Lady is something that Europeans love, is exactly their style. It's really catchy and easy to follow and his image is just completing the whole MV. He's a one hot piece:D He reminds me, somehow of Usher. Don't ask why:D
Since I really didn't have anything to do this week (because there's no homework) I started to review my YouTube playlist. It seems the whole 2012 year is full with catchy, weirdly entertaining k-songs. I'm a fan of K-pop since I first watched Simon and Martina do 'How to dance K-pop 2008' and this year is a promising one. So, I reviewed my list and thought about a Top 5 Best Songs that appeared in 2012 and give a addicting feeling. So, let it roll lol:D
5. Block B -Nanrina
Sincerely, this song captivated me from the first listening. It's very catchy even though the MV doesn't seem to have a sense (for me). I couldn't really get the chorus out of my head for weeks.
4. LEDApple- Time is up
This is songs is awesome. I love LEDApple. They are some nice and talented guys and Time is up is even now one of my favourites. I fell in love with the song from the beginning and I love the rhythm. Also, there's not much to dance on it and that's what I liked in the first place. Is a band with instruments and two vocalists who have talent.
3. B.A.P- Power
Firstly, I heard this song through a parody where instead of 'Hate You' I actually believed they say 'Heechul' lol. But the song is completely awesome. Until now, B.A.P surprised me each time and they don't let the 'rookie' skills show because their skills are amazing. The video also compliments the whole song. However, I still don't understand the spraying part.
2. Big Bang- Fantastic Baby
I thought I went crazy when I realized just how much I love this song. I'm a YG fan for life and am a devoted VIP but seriously, when I saw TOP saying 'Wow Fantastic Baby' I dreamt just 'Wow Fantastic Baby.' Wherever I would go I still have GD's part in my head and without realizing I start with 'na nana na na'. I swear I would take GD and hide him in my closet and when I'm sad, put him sing and eventually have TOP dance. Now, who doesn't want to see them dance on 'ai si tu te pego'? I would pay just to see them do that. :D
1. JJ Project- Bounce
I already said how much I adore this song. It's fresh, they are young and they look good. Seems like they started with the right foot in the industry. Over all that, they act in Dream High 2. These two boys look like they are going to be a big thing if they stuck with the image they have now. I saw how a lot of people preffer JB over Jr but I can't choose. They are both adorable, mostly when they shake their butts that cutely. (we all were like aww when they did that, let's recognize:D)
