Musically it's close to April Story which I loved, so I'm really happy. It reminds me also of WJSN's Secret (same composer) or GFriend's overall sound. It's both sweet with nostalgic undertones and suits them well. The MV is pretty and I like that they find the strength in each other to go back in time and talk with their crushes, it's cute. Styling is really pretty, including the velvet lol which I'm usually not found of I hope the mini is good too!!!
same, you can feel the influence of e.one in this but i love secret so i'm happy with that. and yes, they're becoming some serious vintage queens i think i love it.
you can listen to the mini here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkz92buOiWc) if you haven't already checked it out (and want to)
Thanks! the comment was a few hours ago and I had the time to replay it at least 5 times lol. It's a solid mini! Can I Love You is a pretty, mellow song and the rest is cute. I just wish there was a more upbeat bside like Jelly or Thriller to balance it out.
can i love you is my fav (although on the uk itunes version it's called shall we love (i love itunes random titles like tting and zzi rit zzi rit)) but yes it's got a super relaxed vibe to the whole album which is nice (but i love a bop so)
Oh I really like the mini-album, it's good and the kind of songs I expect and enjoy from kpop!!! It's just that, apart from the title with its nostalgic vibe, and Can I Love You with its mellow vibe, the other bside kinda blend it together? there are the same, happy kind of songs. Maybe having Can I Love You in the middle of the mini instead could have helped the songs sticking out. Their previous minis were a bit more balanced regarding the songs order/changes in rhythm
this is true, they do all have a similar sound to them (i listen to everything on shuffle these days so i guess the order doesn't really affect me)
maybe if they reordered it some more it would work even better, but i'm glad you like the song. (i'm not sure if i've listened to the other mini's off shuffle either.)
I love it! I love those piano notes at the beginning and I'll take basically anything with strings. And everyone sounds so good. I'm really happy with the way this turned out.
The video is beautiful. I love everyone's clothes and the lighting is gorgeous. Autumn is here!
LOVE the MV (they all look gorgeous and their outfits are so nice; even though I wouldn't wear any of them myself! xd); the lightening and the scenery look very pretty (bonus points for Monet's "Water Lilies"). The dance scenes blend in well with the plot scenes.
The song, though, is not my cup of tea. I mean, it's nice, but rather forgettable or maybe I just need to listen to it more often.
i feel like i like it more now, i've got to listen a few more times, and i think it is the strongest on the mini (or the most suited for kpop lead single or whatever) and i like to see a few stages before i make any real judgements just so i can get the full intended effect.
Mhm, I haven't listened to the mini yet (will do that tonight).
I'm normally pretty good, when it comes to judging if I'll like a song or not (it happens very rarely that I start liking a song I didn't like the first time around). I'll still watch at least one live performance, because the choreo looks good and I want to see the full one! <3
I looove the outfits! I especially like Rachel's outfit with the shoes, yellow is an underused colour!
My only gripe with the song was that the change to the chorus was abrupt but then in the second chorus I realised I hadn't even noticed the change so I got over that quickly. It's not my cup of tea but it's a good song and suits them well!
