ikr @ the second point. That also happened with Taemin when he performed Danger. I no longer trust tv shows that say it's 100% live... this was so half-assed.
Idt there was any liping during Growl? If you mean @ around 1:30ish that's Kyungsoo taking over where Suho leaves off. It's part of the song.
Also, you can here some pretty heavy breathing and Lay's voice cracking in the MR removed version of LMR so I doubt it was lipsynced. Definitely not 100% live though, they a had a loud ass backtrack.
I looove this version of Growl! I am so happy to see them perform again the dance break from MAMA 2013. <3 Where are the "special" stages? :( Or the fact that they sang live makes the performaces "special"? Jk. BaekChenSoo slayed. The "Talk" part was really funny. Poor Kyungsoo. He looks so embarrassed during the "power" cut.
they cut out chen singing to TOY and Yoo Hee Yeol praising him and saying he wants to compose a song for chen! smh the growl live version is actually really good! idk about lmr, do they have backing vocals/ pre recorded tracks together with the live? hmmm, i thought it was pure band? anyway, the superhero thing will surely forever haunt exo lmao
i'm pretty sure lmr had very loud prerecorded vocals on there. it was so good to see (and hear!) them with handmikes for growl, though, such a great performance.
they cut out xiumin and his cutie sexy dance and yhy asking him out for a drink after! why?! ;; so disappointed in the lack of screentime for both my biases.
i was hoping for more band in the 'band' version... still like it though
will they ever escape the superpowers curse, i feel so sorry for them everyone someone mentions it haha it must be really annoying for a 23/25 years olds to do :P
and why the frick frack was yixing completely delated from the talk... smh
THEY KEPT CUTTING AWAY FROM MINSEOK EVEN DURING HIS LINES AND THEY EDITED OUT HIS SEXY DANCE The screams when he introduced hismelf tho The powers segment, Kyungsoo was sobbing inside.Although pay close attention to both Minseok and Chanyeol when he slams his foot down. who did Suho piss off to get that hair? Growl was great, I was having Mama 2013 flashbacks Kai was glowing during performances but baby is way too thin
I feel for the guy, his group finally gets to go on a show for ~artists~ and they're stuck doing the same idol schtick and talking about the colorless idol topics (screen time???) they have for years.
there wasn't much band in the band performance lol....idk why i was expecting a different rendition of the song. it was still nice though.
but lmao jongin's face while suho was doing his water noise was killing me. speaking of jongin, his contacts look really nice on him. xiumin and jongdae though lol their outfits are so horrid, the poor things lmao
"there wasn't much band in the band performance lol"
It sounded like 100% band instruments tho?? They definitely kept true to the original and played it a bit too safe imo but I mean, I didn't notice any pieces of the instrumental that wouldn't be considered live instruments being played on the set.
uh yeah, it was probably 100% band instruments. i was talking more about the overall sound of the song than the instruments being played, but i probably should have worded that better
Oh, oops. And yeah, the sound was pretty much the same Growl that we've heard over and over again. It'd be cool if they had done an acoustic version or something.
Why do they insist on having Xiumin wear that? He is a 25 year old man... ngl tho I think it's cute and suits him even though all I can think of is Andy from Toy Story when I see him.
yas! Kai's face at the end of Growl kills me xD it's so shy yet hot xD (i'm negl I always forget Chanyeol is there in Growl tho lmao until he starts rapping). Also Jongin's face when Suho was doing his power LMAO.
here you go :D I found it on Tumblr so if you use it anywhere just put credit to owner b/c I'm not exactly sure who's it is anymore lol. just know that it does not belong to me :)
i'm tired of the super power stuff, they could've kept yixing's parts in instead esp since he ASKED during the talk to pls give him some closeups bc he works hard but never gets any T_____T
also i'm so tired of kai...........i kno it's not his fault that the pd's always give him lots of cuts (and it's probably sm nudging pds to give kai lots of shots esp since sm pushed so hard for him since the beginningg) BUT. i'm so. tired. of kai.
yeah xiumin is SO incredibly popular.. he did and said a lot of cute things on sketchbook and it allllll got cut out. there's something wrong with sm's marketing team bc they totally tell pd's how to edit exo.
but seeing what they *did* include, it seems like they're going for a "united team" vibe, esp since they included how exo says "saranghaja". that was so unnecessary? they had like 50 minutes of footage of them just talking, they could've shown something different !!
/also this is ot but the way baekhyun talks is rly off-putting here. like he sounds arrogant and like he's said these things before so he's trying to say it quickly idk.. i guess it sounds like he's on a music program abt to introduce the next group / like he's doing a variety show when this is a reputable, very music-oriented show.
