This Love is good. I think It’s Christmas can be a good song to add to your Kpop Christmas playlist too if you’re into this kind of stuff. It’s happy and bouncy.

First off : I’m disappointed with Crayon Pop new song. It lacks this pop cheerleading sound that made their Christmas song and Bar Bar Bar such great song. I’m even not that fond of the dance. I think, in fact, that I like the beat of the very first part of the MV way more than any part of the song…
I really like Yasisi. I though, after watching some MV teaser that I would just but terribly tacky and in some way, the MV is a bit, but the song is just really enjoyable. My favorite part is the chorus, but mainly the first part of it. I always want to burst out dancing when she says “Baby touch like that, touch like that”, it’s just soooo catchy. And, even though the dance is kinda really simple, I like it too.
I kinda like 2 Years Apart too. I’ve seen some acoustic live stuff from Eddy Kim since I’m a subscriber or Mystic89 channel on YouTube (and they’re promoting the hell out of this kid). It’s fun yet not like the kind of sound you’re that used to in Korean music most of the time. It has this lay back acoustic vibe to it, something smooth, yet still really groovy. It might take more than one time to really dig it though, but it’s still pretty enjoyable from the start.
While listening to Stalker, I’ve realised I have a lot of trouble listening to music, mainly rapper, that are swearing at a woman or women in general. I know some of them out there are not always the best human being ever, I get that. But it’s just that I feel there’s already so much violence and hatred towards women as it is that adding some on top of that, calling them “hoes”, “bitch”, and stuff, saying “fuck you” to them is maybe a bit uncalled for. It’s not that I have trouble with swearing in general, in fact I feel it’s a great way to express anger, but there’s some situation I don’t like it, like this one. It’s really really really far from the happy” twist of the numerous “fuck you” in Cee Lo Green song for example. Maybe it has to do with the background of rap and the culture it got associated with or the way they say it, kinda harsh and all. I don’t know.
It’s a shame that Chisa’Bounce isn’t a bit better. I feel like it’s lacking something catchy, like in the chorus or something. It’s a shame mainly because I think Kang Nam is really talented and I would like to see more of him (even though he says he admires Chris Brown, that’s a shame too). But the song is not special enough to be really good. And I think at one point, it might be a good idea to let go of the association between the name of the group and the movie Men In Black because it’s kinda getting old.

I really like Fallin’. It think it might have a lot to do with the fact Jay Park is doing the featuring/chorus/bridge because his voice is just so…. gosh.
Be A Man is good too, though since Smocky Girl and every other great song MBLAQ did, my expectation are maybe a little bit higher. It’s still good though, I would just have like something a little more upbeat.

So a few new stuff this week, but mainly from people I don’t really like… IU became number 1, but that wasn’t really a surprise. I’m just happy the song is good this time around. And Crayon Pop is makin a comeback. I like the song a lot, but it kinda feel like the scandal with their ent. company might be not so false after all… I don’t know.
Zia’s song is alright, even though it’s a ballad like any other. But I can say it’s a bit less cheesy than most of the ballad I hear on the chart, maybe because the music it uses sound a bit (but really, just a bit) less like premade ballad music every one of them use. Though it’s still quite similar.
My Destiny is a OST from “My Love From The Stars”. This drama is really great. I’ve started watching it and really really like it a lot. That said, the fact I like the drama doesn’t help the song. It’s still really OST-like, the only thing is that I’m used to hearing the song within the drama, so it makes it bearable. I still don’t like it as a song in itself though.
Vibe’s song seems to be about a charity thingy. That said, it doesn’t make it good… Too cheesy for me even though some of the people who sings in it have really great vocal abilities.
When a MV starts with someone crying his eyes out… Yeah, I don’t like it. The ballad is a bit too intense from the start and I think I really don’t like the voice of Ali. So it’s a big no-no for I Love You.

Again, I messed up last Top 25 with the Jellyfish ent. song that was at rank 2. I’ve updated the post too. Check out the MV, it’s pretty interesting.
I like Beenzino. This song is alright. I’m not that much into it for two main reason : 1- the use of the word “f**king” for no apparent purpose in the chorus, 2- there’s no MV (it’s not that I don’t like it because there’s no MV, but I feel like I might have like it more if there was a good MV with it).
Only For You is a good down-tempo R&B song. Verbal Jint is not that much present though, but I think it’s not such a bad thing because the song is really focused on the R&B mood more.
Ra.D new song is alright too. But as always, I feel like it could be better or that maybe I’m just not really touched or moved or interested all that much by their songs. That said, I feel like it’s one of the better ones.
As you may know, I’m not a big fan of Brown Eyed Soul’s ballad. This one is not different. It even has this kind a weird sound that remind me of the cheesy ballad older people listen to on the radio.
IU, I’ll have to say, you’ve saved your new album with this one for me. Friday is really a great IU song. It has this sound we are used to with her. And the featuring is great too since the voice of Jang Yi-jeong completes the one of IU really well. I’m really pleased with this one (finally!)
Perfume was a big let down for me. Maybe my expectation were too high since the last K.Will was such a great hit for me. But this one is kinda too “Noel like” for me, with the big intense voice and the over the top emotion they want to communicate with it. And even though the MV is pretty, I just don’t feel it.
