"get the treasure" is the title track. all of the new songs were rereleased digitally earlier today on itunes / line japan. the entire album will be prereleased on the same sites on the 27th. the physical comes out on february 22nd. the mv for the title is probably gonna be out sometime in the next week.

to explain the photo before the cut, lol: shinee's collaborating with... wait for it ... sesame street with some of the merchandise for their japan tour coming up. basically: onew = elmo, jonghyun = big bird, key = bert, minho = the cookie monster, taemin = oscar the grouch.

THAT SWEATSHIRT IS SO CUTE I NEED IT

Which SHINee post should I stay in damn

I really don't like the first album cover but the other more than make up for it, especially the last one.

I never cared for their Japanese releases, never listened to them. What's the general consensus on them?

edit: I am very into that Become Undone song

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

i like their jpn discography overall but it's def hit-and-miss at times. i feel the misses come more from their title tracks than anything else though, but there's a fair share of songs that are worth checking out, like: password, 君がいる世界, keeping love again, moon river waltz, better, to your heart, seesaw, melody. downtown baby, dazzling girl, 1000 years and your number are my (personal) fave title tracks.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

+1 for 1000 Years and Your Number.

Stranger was also originally in Japanese before they made a Korean version for Sherlock if I remember correctly?

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

yep! it was! it was on their first jpn album.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

Yeah I thought so. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me and now it's one of my favorites.

[dynamite-state.livejournal.com]

I liked password, keeping love again, downtown baby and seesaw was probably my favorite. The ballads are generic but a bit more tolerable than the korean ones, I always fall asleep with those.

[digitalqueen.livejournal.com]

go listen to password

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

uughhh japanese shinee merch is the best, i still want anything from bridge ship house collab


LMAO

Key = Bert

Minho = cookie monster

Taemin = trashcan monster

but onew is more big bird than jjong

and jjong is 100% elmo

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

ABOAB is blood type stuff, right?

Jonghyun is not big enough to be Big Bird.

Why are Cookie Monster's eyes red?

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

cookie monster = minho using 1of 1 outfit and glasses

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

Oh they're glasses! I was like "what is happening" lol

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

mhm. i haven't listened to the song yet but some people who have said it's def about blood type.

lol i kind of hope jjong was the one who picked big bird for himself.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

I hope ABOAB is a jam like NU ABO. <3

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

I HEARD IT'S PRETTY GOOD. so fingers crossed. ;;

[mylovebelt.livejournal.com]

kinda mad that key x bert oddly fits 'cause i hated him as a child lol.

i'm rlly excited for this album!! the songs sound good. and i want the pretty lightstick they're doing for this tour but there's probs no way i'll ever be able to get my hands on it ;;

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

I'm a Sesame Street kid, so this collab is pretty awesome to me.

The songs sound so good, can't wait for the album to be released.

[sodapab.livejournal.com]

Become Undone sounds good! and I'm really like the second album cover.
I'm guessing the mv for Get The Treasure won't be shinee as pirates :P

[frantastic.livejournal.com]

Jesus, i need to buy that sweatshirt oh my god

[by-venoms-sting.livejournal.com]

omg the Sesame Street merch is beautiful

[keytfelt.livejournal.com]

Always here for more SHINee Japanese releases! The Sesame Street merch is adorable.

[amandaplan.livejournal.com]

i really want to get some of the new merch.

[bunica1990.livejournal.com]

yaaaaas

[psharp10.livejournal.com]

i really hope they all personally chose the sesame street characters themselves

and shinee's jpn music is usually a hit or miss for me but i'll check this out when it comes out~

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Better than nothing!

Are they allowed to use Sesame Street characters for promotion tho?

[1of1girl.livejournal.com]

looking forward to hearing the new songs and the merch is adorable lol.

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

"as per usual: shitty album art but i won't complain after d×d×d" SAME, like it could have been worse...like dxdxd 2.0, at least now we have a cute collab with sesame street!! + OP have you seen that new lighstick??????? all the previews of it look so pretty TT

als become undone is already my fave for sure tHAT CHROUS AT THE END /dies/ though as biomedical student i'm sure ABOAB will be high on my list too lol (it even happens to be that i have a exam about that subject ;;)

SHINee's japanese stuff are always interesting, though my fave will still remain I'm Your Boy, this album looks good tbh and at least one of my prayers have been heard (jp version of 1 of 1....now i only need a jp version of tell me what to do u.u)

[achan123.livejournal.com]
