Ok, it's been a while since I've written anything. Lately, or just late last week, I've been fangirling on SHINee--a 5-man boyband from South Korea. I'm not new to K-pop, but I wasn't a fan either. I like J-pop more, which is probably because of the animes I watch. :D
Anyhoo, last week was also the time SHINee released their newest album and single "Why So Serious?". What can I say? I love the new song! I'm not sure how to classify the music though. Electro-pop-dance-funk-rock? It's a mix actually and somehow it all comes together in this song. The most notable part of the song for me is the refrain where Taemin and Jonghyun sang:
[Taemin] daeum ssinui keullaimakseu mak sijak dwae
[Jonghyun] I eumagi deouk deo keojimyeon urin saraisseo, tonight
The beat and melody is so different from the rest of the song that it just pops out. Not to mention it sounding great. Add the way it was merged into the chorus--it was just amazing. Ok, I'm totally fangirling now... :") More proof that this song is worthy of fangirling: just 5 days since the official music video was up on youtube, it already has 2 million views! Way to go, boys!
Anyway, as much as I love Hello, Lucifer, and Dream Girl from SHINee, this song just rocks it out of the park for me. See for yourself...
Speaking of J-pop, SHINee does have a Japanese album out...*searching youtube now*
