Me likey the changes

I'm pretty pleased with all the new YG songs. Not that they're running away from auto tunes, it still there but now I can hear more real instruments. I especially like Park Bom's acoustic version of "Don't Cry". It sounded so familiar! I like the hip hop YG side but I like their new style more :D... Especially Bigbang's "Love Song"... Thats just total love for that.

2NE1- Lonely

Park Bom-Don't Cry Acoustic Version

I love this LOVE SONG

Ever since Big Bang made their big comeback after 2 years of hiatus you didn't hear me spazz like I should be. I wasn't really that thrilled with "Tonight". Yes it gives me LSS but... I didn't really like it. Period.. Even the music video... I'm always saying that I'm looking for something more... but with their case.. I want them to tone it down a bit... and after few months of that.. They DID tone it down. wah! I love Taeyang's part and believe it or not I like Seungri's part too... Daesung and TOP's intro... Gdragon is okay.. but really, the four shined in this song :D

Stupid Liar's performance is really fun.. I like how they bang their head :D... But Deukkie of Dony's face in Love Song performance made me go for this more... who wouldn't like a calm big bang? maybe it's just me... hahaha

Oh Yeah..so High!

I love their debut performance, it's very lively! Made me appreciate Oh Yeah more.. it really does make a lot of difference. For the High High.. I wasn't that high about the song because I don't usually like pure rap songs.. it just lack "singing"...But seeing the live performance it sounded like a really fun song.. choreography is a plus :D.. always! I had the same feeling with 2NE1's "Go Away". I get to see the Kwon Twins too! Weeeeee! I'm excited to hear the whole album.. I don't wanna post anything about GDTOP until they release the whole album but I can't restrain my fangirling with their debut performance :D I like this better than their music video

2NE1 Don't Stop the Music

YG released a music video for 2NE1 song for Yamaha CF in Thailand, And there back with the lego theme.. I love it! I miss this nice colorful theme. But the song is not as strong as "Try To Follow Me".. but I still love the video. YG makes a good music video doesn't he?... I like the part where CL and Minzy were singing "Fiore!!" (If I'm not mistaken)

News- Fighting Man

Don't get wet and get a grip people!.. haha.. But I love the song.. it kinda gives us a teaser of Yamapi's movie next year

Hwang Bo - I'm Still Beautiful

Love the song. Love the music video. Love her voice. Love Hwang Buin!.. I'm not really a big fan of her when she's a singer.. but this one will do for me :D... Hwang buin is pretty even if she's not your typical Korean beauty.

Se7en and Miss A

I wasn't really a se7en fan before but being a YG bias I learn to love him. He has a good voice.. All the Se7en/ Park Han Byul shenanigans introduced me to he was and his music last last year. Too bad he doesn't get that much recognition when he made a comeback after three years.. but I guess if you're a true artist performing on stage than getting awards is enough. I'm not so crazy about his new follow up song "I'm going crazy" (lol) Maybe I need to listen to it more before it sinks in to me just like "Better Together". I love the YG Music Videos!!! I love the slow motion rewind of Park Han Byul's action... she got a weird pose for a second but that actually made me like it.. I hope we'll here more of Se7en this year. =D

SE7EN - "I'M GOING CRAZY"

News Unplugged/ Ryo-chan

I think I'm turning into a Yamapi fan too like everyone else.. at first I can't believe why people like him.. but after watching him in Buzzer Beat it opened my eyes..  And his hair here really looks good.. yes I have a fetish for hair. Anyway I'm still a Ryo-chan fan.. I know he's gonna get his color back.. well he looks good too with surfer tan. I always love to see live performances.. my eyes sometimes forget about Ryo-chan because of Tegomass.. well mostly Tegoshi... omo! I can't believe I know now all their names lol. Before it's just Nishikido Ryo.. well I still don't know other's full name.. but at least I know one of their names :))

2NE1's 1st Album "To Anyone" is out!

I decided to seperate this full songs from the updates because it's the full version. I'll include the official music videos here too.. Gaaah!! Can't Nobody is so catchy! How come I don't here much of CL and Minji?. I just so can't wait for the music video! I know it will give a different feel just like "Try To Follow Me" did to me.. first I wasn't empress with the song but when they released the MV I was blown away!.. back to the real deal.. I didn't expect Go Away will not be that upbeat but it's alright.. but I'm just worried because they have "S" word in their 2 songs already, they might ban their songs if they don't censor it. I have a feeling that "Clap your hands" will have the same vibe as "Strong Baby" haha.. I could be wrong.

Arashi - Love Rainbow PV

Yes I will like any Arashi songs because it's Arashi =D I'm currently watching "Natsu no Koi wa Nijiiro ni Kagayaku" or Natsuniji for short.. I need to copy paste the title because I still don't have it down in my head like other hard Japanese drama titles. This is why I love OST because you always hear them, maybe three times a week and that's why you get the chance to like it. Mostly Arashi songs sounds the same but I learn to like each songs because I always hear it.. especially when Jun-kun have a new drama out.. lol.

About the PV.. it doesn't have any wow effect.. just like "to be free".. Man they need to step it up.. but CG background was great but they should stop producing PVs like this boring.. it needs to be more like........ Troublemaker!
I love the CD cover though.. the next Arashi member that will have a drama is my Ninomiya-kun!  His like my favorite Arashi member.. can't wait! that means another song for them.. hahaha

Infinite - Come Back Again

Woolim Entertainment first idol group has finally released their debut album along side with a music video. The song is nice, nice as in not irritating in your ears... of course you can't get away from "rap" when you're in Kpop world but the rap was not that hardcore and doesn't sound like they're trying to hard to be a rapper. And it's nice to see one neutral color of hairs and colorful attires for a change. hahaha. I don't know if I'm gonna keep my eyes on them like C.N.Blue and Big Bang.. They're good but the only one the caught my eye is the nice looking guy and under the power of google search if I'm not mistaken his name is Sung Yeol the spelling might be wrong but who cares... 5 stars for being a catchy song (the chorus is alreay stuck in my head) and 5 stars for the interesting video..and the guitar hook (love it!)

Bluelove

Yes CNBLUE is stepping out from YAB fandom. They sure prove people that they're not just ridding on YAB's fame, maybe they had a help but they didn't fade when YAB did. Love their new mini-album like their album's title it's very lovely. They didn't remove the rock band image but they just show another image of them. I love their romantic side, I feel like I'm going back to my old days.


Sweet Holiday
My favorite is Sweet Holiday, Lovelight and maybe Love.. because it's very catchy. Sweet Holiday is something you hear in movies when the couple is having their wonderful time in the park, or zoo (only if they didn't add too much rap, it would have been a perfect OST)

Gummy/ FT Island

Gummy released a new music video today. I was really excited with her new album because "I'm sorry" was so good that you'll want to hear more Gummy songs. And this song makes it extra special casting two of artist that I like.. Jung Ryeo Won and Kim Hyun Joong.. He's very handsome! mostly when men grows up their face changes and they don't look good like they used to be.. Hyun Joong is not like that, he gets more appealing to me. And for Ryeo Won, I'm glad that she gained weight.. she looks prettier ^_^ Can't wait to see Gummy's live performance for this song, it's always better to hear the live version :D

I'm really liking every FT Island songs now, I think Hongki's voice is perfect for Jpop songs.. or should I say Jmusic since they're not really pop. And I love Jaejin's calm voice, it just right for FT Island.. The song definitely has a hook.. very Engrishey but it's forgiven because you don't expect someone to be good at it when it's not their first language.. And love the concept of the music video.. Now I miss seeing them on music shows...

NEWS

I was contemplating if I should post my new interest because I still don't know if it will stick to me like K-pop did. I tried to listen to J-pop songs because my best friend recommends it, and yea every time I listen to Jpop it always reminds me of Anime, because I known them for that.. not really a bad thing, I think they have their own music.. you know when you hear it for the first time you'll have an impression "it's very Japanese like".

With News, I still don't know.. I'm definitely turning into a Ryo-chan fan and that means I'm gonna have to try News whether I like it or not. They're not really new so I hope I'm not making those crazy fans shoo me. I only like two of their songs, well only two songs stick to my mind while watching the News Winter Diamond Tour. Maybe I was so fixated to see Nishikido's solo performance that I didn't bother looking the other performances. I like all Nishikido Ryo's solo songs, I learned to appreciate his husky voice.. it's rare ^_^ And Yamapi.. Ohmy! I've been always aware of that name but never really checked him out because I was so into Ikuta Toma that time (and still is). The only members I'm confident with names are those two and Koyama. And the rest I have to google them..Tegoshi, Kato, Masuda... and Uchi that got kicked out from the group because of drinking while underage, haha! don't really know the whole shenanigans but I tried to do my research.. well it doesn't really matter I don't think I will like them that much... I still feel I'm gonna stick as Nishikido fan..

Lee Hyori 4th Album

Her album came out few weeks ago, I'm just lazy to talk about it because I wasn't really that hype. But I have my favorite from the whole album and it's "How Did We Get".. she sang it with Daesung and it came out really nice! Makes me want to fall in love again, hahaha! The rest of the songs are all good (but not my type), Hyori's album has a touch of dark concept but you can barely see it.. Her album shows her versatility when it comes to singing and Her photos for her album.. I don't know if it's unique because everyone seems like they're heading on that road too.. I guess it's how they bring it, and she can totally bring it.


How Did We Get

Vanilla Lucy

I found a new good source of Kpop.. well I know her for a long time but I didn't know that she blogs..  she blogs more on Kpop artist that doesn't gain that much lime light like the ones you see in allkpop and all big kpop sites.
Vanilla Lucy looks like an interesting group because they're a band.. but not just your regular band.. they play instruments that you'll mostly see in operas or some elite event, They hold saxophone, cello and violin.. and their song is upbeat and not like those dramatic songs.

Ryo Nishikido or the other way around

I'm not really into Jpop because I never really try to do my research about them. But because my friend Mico dragged me into this drama I can't myself to know more about the leading guy in 1 Litre of Tears, Nishikido Ryo. I googled him and found out that he's part of a band.. like c'mon! Do all of their actors also knows how to sing? So I checked his song Code and the first part is kinda nah.. but as I listen to it over and over again it's very catchy. His voice is not something I used to hear so I don't know if he has a great voice but as long as it's not out of tune it's okay.. his husky voice is just right for him..

I don't know if I'll be a fan of him.. I never really sticked to Japanese artists.. Ikuta Toma and Shirota Yuu are the only Japanese actors that I know before.. well plus him now ^^. Here are the videos that made me like him more than being the sweet guy in 1 Litre of Tears.

2NE1's Try To Follow Me MV

Finally it's out! A month after YG released the single, I feel like it's my first time hearing Try To Follow Me when I saw this video! It's very different from their CF.. the blue/pink cutesy dresses are out and fierce and the "2NE1 style" are in. I love how the music video is not very serious but more like showing that "yea try to copy this if you can".. hahaha! Even the pajama outfit will only work for them.. It's very refreshing to see colorful outfits in kpop scene again.. I'm glad YG is not following the dark side trend.. it's just too boring. Even F.cuz that I thought will not take that path finally gave up... YG! release your artist now! Kpop is losing it's color!

Epik High's Run

Not really an Epik High fan, but I do appreciate some of their songs.. and Run can be one of them. The chorus is very catchy.. I can see myself singing "You got me runnin' runnin' runnin' around. Down, down, down." And I love the music video! Don't know yet what they were trying to tell in their music video but it looks interesting and the guy running in the music video is part of "Infinite" an upcoming boyband that is under the same company as Epik High, Woolim Entertainment.

IU- 다섯째 손가락 for Telecinema 19

No it doesn't have any Marshmallow or Rock U feel. (I still love Marshmallow even if her voice is too cutesy) Her cutesy is not irritating to hear and the song is just as sweet as her.

But I'm not sure if the song fits well to the movie, it looks like Telecinema 19 is not that as hardcore as I expect it to be. I wish I can see this movie. I really want to! Even if I have to buy a DVD I will but too bad they don't produce that many Korean movies into DVD. I haven't seen any videos floating around the net either.. only trailers and short clips with a crappy quality. haaayss.. Anyway here's the Music Video for IU's song for Telecinema 19
