Flashback Friday
2016-05-27 11:26 amHi everyone! Time for another Flashback Friday. So, how it works: OP spends hours looking through the all the Fridays on all the different charts whilst eating popcorn and limeade…then upon finding a good one, posts the top 3 songs from the chosen chart. Then, she picks out 2 more songs from the top 10 as honorable mentions cause why not. This week we’re going to check out the top songs from the last Friday in May, 2013. We’ll start with the longest running group on their 15th anniversary…
#3 Shinhwa “This Love”
I don’t fucking care, I love the choreography for this. I remember some people like “why are they voguing?” and “it’s so embarrassing” and "they're so old", blah blah blah. But they all fully committed to it, and they look good doing it…I mean godammit, look at Eric with those poses. Kudos to them for doing this for 15 years and still wanting to try something different.
#2 4minute “What’s Your Name?”
Before Twice, 4minute showed us the harsh reality of a zombie invasion. But at least the 4minute ladies knew they were in danger and tried to fight them off before giving up and breaking into the group dance.
#1 Lee Hyori “Bad Girls”
I honestly didn’t like any of the songs for this comeback. But I did enjoy this song more than “Miss Korea”, although I think the “Miss Korea” video was better. Like, I think I only watched this whole MV once when it came out. Trigger warning: eyebrows.
Honorable Mentions:
#6 Roy Kim “Bom Bom Bom”
If this song isn’t on your “Picnic in the Park” playlist, then you’re doing it wrong. Or “Acoustic Mornings” playlist. Or “Smart and Handsome Troubadour” playlist. Bottom line, this should be on a playlist somewhere…it’s lovely.
#10 Secret “Yoo Hoo”
Fun fact about OP: still refuses to call her anything but Zinger. Another fun fact: OP can’t pick out which one is Zinger anymore because it’s been so damn long since they put out anything ARE THE OTHER MEMBERS BESIDES HYOSUNG EVEN STILL ALIVE?!?

Date: 2016-05-28 12:47 am (UTC)What's Your Name was on some 8tracks playlist alongside SNSD's IGAB and I listened that playlist quite a few times... and so both songs grew on me eventually. They're just fun to sing along to lol.

Date: 2016-05-28 04:33 am (UTC)Of course I'm biased towards Shinhwa, heh. What I loved about this week was Shinhwa going up against Hyori, and seeing how close they were brings back the older generation feels. :')

Date: 2016-06-05 03:31 am (UTC)Hyosung and Jieun have been really active as far as acting has been going! And recently Jieun/Hyosung had a photoshoot. But Sunhwa's been put on hiatus ever since her comments about her beef with Hana and Hana never had any schedules in the first place.....
(also I feel, I actually really like her real name, but there are lots of jung hana's and zinger is much easier to search for LMAO)
