I cna’t write much because I have to run out the door to see my friend and see a play. We’re going to see A Christmas Carol! Ooo, I’m very excited ^_^
Anyways, wanted to quickly blog about F.I.R.’s new single, We Are. I love me some FIR! jia you! The new single is pretty cool! Always <3 Faye's voice.
My best friend’s sister is a k-pop nut like me. We often talk about it; she loves her some 2NE1 and stuffs. Although we don’t exactly like the same music, it’s nice to talk to someone about it. One song that she really loves is Taeyang’s Wedding Dress so I had to check it out too! It’s pretty cool, I normally like my songs a little faster but Taeyang kind of reminds me of Neyo, you know? I think the current trend in K-pop is for the songs to have a little edge to them, a little r and b or hiphop elements. Does that make sense to anyone? Check this song out though, it definitely grows on you. By the third listen or so, you’ll be hooked! Wedding dress~
Sooo, I don’t often post videos by acts that I don’t know too well, mostly because this blog reflects my tastes and who I really <3. If I had my way maybe I'd just post about T-ara and nothing else? Hehe ^^; T-ara fighting! Anywaaaaays O_o;; I wanted to post this music video because after learning a bit about 2PM and watching the meltdown that was Jaebeom's departure I decided to learn more about this band. And, I'm pleasantly surprised! Their new song starts out a little slow but by the end it's a great little pop song. Actually I kind of want to post it because of the dance! Hehe, it makes me giggle ^_^
Superfly are a pretty cool band (or, well, were; it’s just the lead singer now). They make 60s inspired music and have this whole retro style that I think is a bit of fresh air from all the electro-pop and futuristic stylings that are so popular at the moment. Love the vocals of their new song, Dancing on the Fire. It’s not what I ewould have expected from them; it does sound a little electro-poppy… but it’s not too bad! Hah XD Love me some electro-pop-rock really. I can’t resist it. Hehe.
After School are back with a new single! Because of You is a very sweet, mid-tempo Winter ballad. Everyone releases Winter ballads this time of year, and I really like this one. It’s a bit more upbeat than most other ballads but that doesn’t mean it’s not as good. I think this will be a pretty big hit! It sounds a bit like 2NE1 mixed with SNSD or SeeYa.
Park Bom’s You & I is definitely my favourite solo single to come out of chez 2NE1. It’s a really great song that highlight’s Bunny Bom’s pretty awesome vocals and her sincerity. The lyrics are so sweet and the MV was also really sweet (tear ;_;); you’d get toothache from it! It’s surprising though, cause Park Bom also seems to be the most shy on stage, despite being the lead vocalist. So I’m proud of her to rock it like she does.
I have to say that although out of all of the solo singles released by the 2NE1 girls this is my least favourite, CL and Minzy both give a great solo performance and really know how to bring energy to the stage. check out the performance, it’s pretty cool.
The girls of 2NE1 also performed their individual projects as well which was really great to see ^_^
2NE1 were definitely the darlings of the night as they won loads of awards. I’m not the biggest fan of 2NE1 but I do like some of their songs. I just prefer the style of other bands. But, I have come to appreciate how hard the girls work and that they are really talented. I don’t care is my favourite song of theirs though and I really enjoyed this performance.
Brown Eyed Girls and KARA, two of the biggest girl bands in k-pop at the moment, joined forces for a special medley of two of the biggest hits. Awesome ^_^ I’ve really enjoyed all the performances at MAMA; granted it’s sad that SM Entertainment boycotted them and we had no SNSD etc. but the artists that did give performances really did give it their all.
