There’s not much to say about this one since almost all of the songs in it have been featured in the Melon Chart, so I’ve already talked about them. I got tired of Knock at some point, but it’s still a good song enough, same goes for Crybaby. And I had Paris stuck in my head for about a week or more.

September was a pretty good month for the indie music scene, with Clazziquai releasing 2 awesome tracks, Verbal Jint having one of my fav autumn song as of now and Zion.T’s comeback.

Even though I’m not into Teardrop Of My Heart, I have to say that Kim Bum Soo has a really great and pretty voice.

Don’t Look At Me Like That is good. The chorus and the bridge are great and catchy. Even though it’s a ballad, it has this rock upbeat twist to it here and there. That said, it is nowhere near the awesomeness of False Hope from last year. That said, like that previous one, I’m guessing it won’t get that much attention. I don’t know why her songs always get released at the end of a month, like really in the last few days, because it’s the worst time to release stuff… Anyway, they should try to make a new concept for her because she’s also stuck in a genre that is not “taking” all that much, even though it suits her well.

It’s not really that common that I like/enjoy a Crucial Star’s song. Paris is laid back and fun. The song is smooth and I like it. The chorus is so-so though, both because of the lyrics and the melody. But the rest is really really good.

I’m impressed by Lena Park’s song. I sometimes have trouble liking her music for some reason. But this time, it’s fun. I’m not saying I’ll listen to it all the time, but it’s something I could enjoy now and then.

So this time around , I’ve started the playlist with something more smooth. I had a bit of a hard time (like about every time I do these playlist hehe) because there wasn’t such a big range of different beat somehow. I hope it turns out well anyway.

Here are the few songs I’ve been listening too A LOT more than the others one. Sure, I, I Love You, of course, since it was featured in my BTSSB section. I really like Baby Oh Baby, I think because of the chorus. I like its groovy R&B bedroom vibe. Every Clazziquai songs I’ve been listening too from their future new album as been a great musical blessing so far.

Even though I’ve put them way down below, you should check out the more unknown songs I’ve put there. First there’s this bubbly cute song Curious About You, which is great in many level and I’m actually astonished I haven’t heard more people talk about it. Then there’s Kim Su Bin song that captured me right away even though it’s ballad. There’s something about the melody of her voice, but I cannot find words to describe it. Finally, there’s Cherry Blossom from Rainbow99. This song made me browse around the indie scene a lot more this month and I’ve found great new band that I’ll follow from now on. Sure, it’s instrumental and far away from most of what I usually put in those playlist, but it’s sooooo pretty and peaceful, and I do listen to instrumental peaceful stuff a lot now and then so I was really happy to find this song. I’ve listen to a few other songs of his album (“Seoul”) and it’s a bit more intense, not really my taste. But if you like industrial stuff, you should check it out.

Finally, on another note, I’m happy with the latest Baechigi song and the fact the featured a member of MAMAMOO. The thing is, I would really like they try to get out of this subgenre they’ve been in for the last few songs. I would love to see them get back to something just a bit more dark maybe. I have trouble with the vintage cabaret vibe the Korean music scene I’ve been going through this year and I really pray that 2015 will not linger in it too much.

I like I’m In Love from Secret. It’s really great to see them go back to less aegyo stuff. I prefer them that way. Still, I was expecting a bit more from the concept since there was such a hype around the teaser MV and pictures. It’s still really good though.

I prefer Confession (Taehyun’s Solo) over I’m him (Mino’s Solo – I don’t get why it has all those views already, it’s terribly boring and it’s a medley of stuff other have done a hundred time already). But I get why they promoted the latter, they already had 2 ballads for WINNER, it might have been an overkill.

As for everything else, meh…

Not to pleased with A Tempo since I prefer more upbeat music from Gain. This one is more of a ballad.

Thank You My Love is not bad, but maybe just a bit too intense and overly joyful for me. At least the musical dance in the MV fit really well with the song.

I like Bang Bang Crossroad like most of Electroboyz song. Maybe because, most of the time, they do somewhat really similar song. The only thing I have against it is about the MV concept. It kinda makes me uncomfortable. Maybe it’s a cultural thing, or maybe I didn’t quite get the MV. But, if I was the girl in the MV, and 3 boys were starting to somewhat harass/touch-hold-faketofallonme/follow me on the street, I would do much more than just some shy giggles. I would be kinda scared and I would try to get some help from passersby or something. Am I the only one who’s a bit creeped out by this kind of MV concept?

I really like Beat also. I wasn’t sure what to expect from 100% since their debut song was so great, but after that, not so much. But this one is great enough that I’ll be looking forward for their next song. I feel like it’s a bit alike the latest VIXX MV concept though.

Lee Michelle’s Without You is a great and powerful song. I think maybe they overdid it a bit with the plot of the MV, but you cannot deny how great her voice is and how awesome is the song. I hope it get higher on the chart soon since she deserves it.

So many songs this week :S

And it looks like I’ll have to do a full review on EXO’s Christmas album.
Christmas Day started good, but then the chorus… Too much cheeziness for me, sorry, way too much.
The First Snow is okay. It’s not the best, but it’s fine. Not such a great Christmas theme song though since it has kind of a little summer or south side vibe to it.
My Turn To Cry may seem like a weird title for a Christmas album. But remember Christmas in Korea is more a couple holiday than a family one. I like this one a bit more than the 2 previous one. Maybe not so much to listen to while decorating a Christmas tree, but like randomly when you feel like smooth music when walking in the snow or something.
The Star has the exact same beat as a well-known music, but I cannot quite put my finger on it. That said, it’s not so great. I even find it boring.

I Do I Do, from Secret, is really a great aegyo song. But it was kinda too much girly for me.

GOSH I cannot wait for Reply whatever year to stop! So many boring OST! So yeah, Farewell to Myself is exactly the same as so many other before…

And, even though I started to watch Empress Ki, I have a hard time with XIA when he sings ballad. It’s just always waaaaay too much intense for me.

Snow Candy is the Starship Planet Christmas song with K.Will, ¾ of Sistar and Boyfriend. The MV has the same concept as so many other before, half we get together and have so much fun, half little close up scene with either one person or 2 members playing tricks or being cute. The song is not that special.

And then, there was Winter Song. Ok, so first of, they used Song Ji Hyo in the MV. And she kills it. I always thought she was a great angry/comic/clumsy actress, but she shows there how much she so much more. Just WOW. And then the song, I could listen to it all day long. The rap and the chorus sung by Navi are so great together. And even the few Spanish speech. Even though it’s still really new, I feel like this song could become one of my favorite of this year.

There something really great about Flower : its MV. Artistic, nicely done, pretty and everything. The song is alright, but I feel like I’m gonna get tired of it very quickly. The verses and the chorus are not that well balance together. We shall see, but you should definitely see for yourself since, in any case, the MV is such a great one, you should at least see it once.

Ok, it’s official, I think I hate Wheesung. All the song that are listed here are older song of his. And they are all not so great. And I’m still always really disturbed while watching his MV. I feel like he’s trying so hard to make me believe he has swag, but I just can’t believe it.

I Can Hear Your Voice is a strong song and Son Seung Yeon’s voice is great, but I feel it sound exactly like any other pop song America does, so it kinda turns me off.

When I saw there was to be a collab between Juniel and a member of CNBLUE again, I was excited. Then I heard the song… I don’t really like it. It’s too pop candy for me.

Infection is lacking something to be better. And even then, I don’t think it would be that good. The singer seems to not really feel the song that much.

Feeling Only You is not a ballad! It’s not that good either, but still, it’s a great change from all the Reply ballad songs.

Soap is interesting. I’m not saying I’m loving it, but it’s pretty enough I might try to listen to it a bit more. It’s maybe a bit too soft for me though. I feel like it lacks a climax, a part where it gets more intense somewhere. Even the part wich I guess is design to be it is way too soft to actually be it.

I don’t know how I feel about Kiss. The melody take too much different path to create a great wholesome song. But I’ve been wrong before with this kind of song. Anyway, it’s not like I hate it, it’s just I’m not really sure if I like it or not.

Mystic89 has done a really great job with Christmas Wishes. It’s strange though since there’s so many people involve in the song, but so few actually sing the song. That said, for me, it’s one of the best Christmas song of this year. It really got that Christmas feel to it that so many other are lacking. And I have to confess I have a bit of a Mystic89 bias (because of Park Ji Yoon mostly and because they try to showcase artist that are a bit different from what we are used to in the Kpop industry).

Mornin’ is good. I’m not head over heels in love with the song, nor the MV, but it’s light and fun enough. I was expect a bit more from G.NA though.

And yet another ballad from XIA. This one is a bit less intense, so more bearable, but it’s still a somewhat boring ballad.

Magnets Attract is really boring, both the song and the MV.

And don’t bother with T-ARA’s Christmas Song. It was done in the same set (or it sure look a lot like it) as their latest song, but they just sit there singing something that sound like a ballad, but is a bit more upbeat from time to time. Gosh, why? The MV is horribly boring. I don’t get why they did that song. Ok, the Christmas buzz and the few more bucks you can make, but this is just worthless. (EDIT : As you can see, Coremedia didn’t even kept it on its channel).

My Pick for the EYKA 2013 – Best Aegyo Performance

27 Wednesday Nov 2013

Tags

AA, APink, Boyfriend, Hello Venus, Rainbow, Secret, Stellar, Tiny-G, Two X

Best Aegyo Performance of 2013

Nominees:
Secret – YooHoo
APink – U You
Hello Venus – Would You Stay For Tea?
24K – U R So Cute
Rainbow – Sunshine
Stellar – Study
AA – Rollin’ Rollin’
Tiny-G – Minimanimo
Two X – Ring Ma Bell
Boyfriend – On&On

My pick: I couldn’t care less. Maybe 24K or Secret.
Why: Secret did a great job, the MV is aegyo all over, there’s hardly a place for anything else to fit in. But I think I would go for 24K in the end because their aegyo almost blinded me. I wasn’t sure if I actually like the song or not because of it, I couldn’t focus on the music at all.
Left out: This year was more about sexy stuff than aegyo I feel. I think at one point though, I’ve commented a MV and said that the Aegyo God pucked all over the MV, but I really cannot remember wich one it was. I guess it could be one already in the nominees *cough* APink *cough*.
Prediction: Boyfriend. As long as it’s not APink, I’ll be happy.

A bunch of new song here. Lim Kim is actually “all right” (ㅋㅋㅋ), but I got bored by it really fast.

My Love, from Lee Seung Chul sound old, like a song from the 90, but not in a good way.

For Best Wishes To You, well, an acoustic version is just an acoustic version, and it seems that Korea does not know what an acoustic version means. I would have said “orchestra version” on the original one and leave this new version without any label to it.

I HATED A Good Boy from Baek A Yeon, it’s too… blend. It has nothing special or outstanding. It’s kinda boring and a bit too candy-bubbly-naive-whitish-girly for me.

I’m Sorry, from BATOOST, is really kinda boring too. Ok, you’ll think I’m a crancky music bitch that never like anything, but really, the song is just not cutting it for me.

Darling of All Hearts is not really good either, the country vibe makes me want to throw up. SunnyHill is not doing really that well lately. The songs are not good, at all. The MV before this one was at least interesting, but this one is just lacking.

And again, Lee Seung Chul, with The Day To Love this time. Again not really impress, except for the piano. So the instrumental part of the song is great, but the song… really blend too.

Overall, same old same old : too much OST stuff, too much songs of the same artist (could someone save me from my 4MEN mysery?).

So yeah, Sistar conquered that chart. Give It To Me actually was my ringtone for a while, the song and MV are great. The other songs are ok, but they don’t stand out as much that’s for sure.

Nell is awesome as usual. This song could actually be introduce to non-Kpop fans since it sounds a lot like U2.

Painkiller is not bad, but it just never stuck in my head even though I’ve listen to it plenty of time. And, I’m sorry, but Ivy’s song is just so blend. Considering the amont of hate she generates, I don’t quite understand how she got to the top 25 in the first place. Anyway…

Not too much to say about this one. 4 new songs that are not that impressive, but some of them are still somewhat good, like Bumkey’s Bad Girl or 2BiC’s Return. I’m not really into Sunshine, from Rainbow, even though I really like their last song. Maybe it’s the effect of the MV that feels like the aegyo demon puked all over it. Rainbow was more fun in Tell Me Tell Me, they still had aegyo stuff all over the MV, but there was some bad-ass stuff to compensate somehow, like one of the girl working on her motorcycle.

Am I the only one that is not really attracted to the drama every OST songs are from? From the MV, Gu Family Book seems to be bleeeh. Yes, Suzy and that dude and all, but it looks so “textbook” to me. I’ll check it out on Dramabeans though, then I’ll make up my mind about it. And you know… 4MEN… gosh, they are boring as hell.
