I was scared it was going to be a sad song. But then I watched and I realized it was the type of music video I think we all need. I love remembering Jonghyun this way. Also, I love all the 80s/70s throwback details to the music video. It's so fun and it made me smile. I'm grateful. Thank you, Jonghyun.

☀☀🌞🌞 He looks good, I'm glad it's a happy song and it's really good

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

we already discussed it in the other post, but in some scenes he has this... strange looks in his eyes. like he's not fully in it, he's not fully enjoying it. idk maybe i just read too much into it...

[icysnowdrop.livejournal.com]

No, it's not just you. In some scenes, he looked like he was tired...

*two thumbs up*

i'm glad that it wasn't a melancholic song, and that it's fun & enjoyable,

[mylovebelt.livejournal.com]

op, i <3 u

jjong looks super handsome. the song is fun and the m/v is bright and cute ;-;
his dancing!! always the best dancer move over taem

it's so surreal, but i think i'm finally making peace with everything.
i really enjoyed the music video and the song.
and...i'm going to write this in spanish, maybe so less people understand it (?) but so i can still express it because it's weighing heavy in my heart. pero sus ojos...inmediatamente pude ver que la mirada en sus ojos fue diferente. no quería concentrarme en esa pero creo que él sabía lo iba a hacer...no sé si podré ser capaz de mirar este video otra vez en el futuro, al menos por mucho tiempo.

se entiende perfectamente, yo tengo que estar lista para verlo en algun momento ... pero se que igual que tu no lo vere mas de una vez

[ashdevilrun23.livejournal.com]

ahhh the silver hair💙💙💙💙 It was always my favorite look on him
I started crying when he sang always be with you. :(
The graphics look straight from the 70s I love this! Thank you jong💕

[msgrottesca.livejournal.com]

I want to but I just don't think I can yet. I feel stupid but I just can't =/

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

You're not stupid, it's hard. <3

[neongoldtooth.livejournal.com]

already talked a bit about it...he looks great in the mv but theres something off. and yes maybe it's me projecting. either way, i love the video.

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

i dont think im ready to watch this.

[neongoldtooth.livejournal.com]

speaking on mvs.

I would have LOVED to see an MV for Take The Dive, Sightseeing, and Rewind, ESPECIALLY Rewind....like....my mind just goes places.

[doseh.livejournal.com]

I don't know why but watching the m/v made me feel at peace...
And, the way Jjong sings "Always be with you" just made feel reassured and secured...

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

The fact that this is all about him always being there in the music...caring for and comforting others above all else. 💙

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

aww i love you jjong 💕
thank you for one last mv (that i wont watch right now) with my favorite look of yours

Okay this is going to be a little harder to handle.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

(OP, it's ok you spaced feel free to rest!!!)

This is a really beautiful video, from the bright colors to the retro aesthetic. The lighting is something out of a dream.

I really love the part at 0:33 when he opens the door 3 times and there's something different behind it each time. (I don't know why, I just do) And what an amazing shot at 0:41 <3 <3 <3

He really loves neon signs.

For the video to be so heavily focused on music (radio, cassette tapes, microphones, disco balls, guitars, vinyl records)... feels so lovely and appropriate.

Thank you, Jonghyun! You did well!

[zionarmin.livejournal.com]

I was fine listening to the album, but as soon as I saw him I started crying. It's so bittersweet.

I love the colors in this. And the 70s and 80s vibes everyone already mentioned.
I love how upbeat it is. Perfect for listening on a car-ride.
He worked so hard, and it shows ♥

[honeyfunnybunny.livejournal.com]

You did well, Jonghyun. Thank you for this gift. You’re an exceptional artist and we all miss you so much. What a fun song and bright beautiful colors (still on that listerine colored suit theme I see). ❤️

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

I was bawling my eyes out after this but hearing him sing 'always be with you' warmed my heart.. I was like.. Yes, indeed. You will always be with us.

[bea-chan22.livejournal.com]

Wherever he is right now, I hope he's now aware of how much he impacted so many lives. I'm always proud of you, Le Petit Prince. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

Don’t know if it’s on purpose or not but the choreo at one point nods to taemins move choreo and I know you shouldn’t read into it too much but I kind of hope he did something for each member through it like inside jokes or something.

[keytfelt.livejournal.com]

I really love this song and the MV is great. I love the red suit. The fact that the title is so close to SHINee makes me happy. My only complaint is I wish the song was longer.

[we-rob-banks.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'll be able to watch for a while--I was trying to avoid social media for this night and received the youtube notif that this was posted and the feeling in my chest when it popped up confirmed I need to take my time on it. I might try to listen to the album tomorrow when it's light outside. It's going to be difficult for a lot of people and I hope everyone is able to take in everything at the speed they need. :) <3

[pepsi-twist9.livejournal.com]

I can't quite listen to the album but I watched this as soon as I could. I didn't expect to cry...it hit me when he said "I'll always be with you." I do find comfort through it, his presence is there in his music.

[kenata.livejournal.com]

i've pre-ordered the cd but dont think i can listen/watch anything yet...seeing a translation of the lyrics key posted on his instagram was already...quite difficult :(

hope everyone is taking care <3
