This song...the only word I can think of is weird. Some of the transitions make no sense to me but it's catchy. The Pink, hot part is stuck in my head. So EXID run a sketchy gas station, frequented by a diverse customer base who like to intensely yell innuendos. And their main selling point is some 'pink oil' which I assume Junghwa secretes given her little solo box shot. Those nozzle innuendos though, be more obvious, please Their styling is.... Whoever put Hyerin in those denim pants needs to meet me outside.I did really like her voice in this, moreso than Solji's. When will they utilize Hani's voice properly though.
That hip dance is weak af but I guess they want something easily imitable like Up & Down/Ah Yeah
here for this hot pink mess, elly and hani hyung (that green hair + red lipstick + hot pink dress was a gross combination tho), junghwa looks so great with the pink hair
i liked their music better when they weren't popular. now they are stuck in the same formula over and over. gimme more every night and less whatever this mess is. plz. ty.
yeah I love these songs tbh but I wish they would give solji and hyeri more lines to sing other than the same few chorus lines over and over. I lol at Junghwa getting more lines tho like ilh but???
up&down version 3.0. they should have gotten popular with Every Night, at least the rehashes they'd release next would be more pleasing to the ear than this grating noise
Hm. The song definitively has catchy parts and I can see myself enjoying this in a playlist/a mini, but overall, it's not the instant love of previous EXID singles. I feel that whatever this chorus is feels a bit weak after the build-up, for example. The MV is really... sexual, lol. They weren't really subtle with the phallic images and so on, and there were a lot of objectification... I don't know how to feel about this.
Objectification has been a theme of their past few releases. I actually feel this m/v was slightly less obvious than their other ones (examples: http://33.media.tumblr.com/5b125fdcd0bfa10532195b2ea4ad5b33/tumblr_nay54qhzzY1sy8x5ho2_500.gif http://l-userpic.livejournal.com/125001838/25747445 http://cfile25.uf.tistory.com/image/234B5D42541059340BDC87 http://www.asianjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/EXIDUpAndDown3.png).
The male gaze is obvious, and I feel like their management tries to sell it as girl power, but it's still the work of men, catering to men. The girls aren't the ones in power in this situation. I wonder if they ever get tired of it? It must be uncomfortable some times.
ohhhh my what's super awkward is that they're selling pink oil, and the word for oil in korean is yoo - they're blurred out "pink yoo" which is a slang for um... pink nipples (which is yoo doo). SEXUAL INNUENDOS
Please tell me I'm not the only one that started humming "up & down" whenever the chorus started playing. It's like they're trying to recreate Up & Down v.3 ala Sorry Sorry.
Someone wake me up when their releases become different from Up & Down.
Solji's parts were almost identical to Ah Yeah Junghwa's part sounded possibly nice but had no connection to the rest of the song Hani was basically doing the same thing as in the Ah Yeah video tbh Basically just felt like they're ripping themselves off ???? also it was absolutely gross. Up & Down was at least vaguely coy

Date: 2015-11-17 03:30 pm (UTC)Why does the song sound like a mess
Why is it PinkHot and not HotPink
Why are they rehashing choreo
Why are their outfits tragic
Why is there a black dude there just to say stuff like "push push work it out..." cosplaying Run DMC
