love love love the styling for their individual scenes was perfect (i'm fine with the velvet skirts, but the red velvet dresses didn't do it for me tbh) they all look stunning and i can't wait for the lives! their performances always make me love their songs 10x b/c they are such strong vocalists.
have u listened to their debut minialbum? it's pretty damn good. IMO---there hasn't been an idol girl group with this much vocal talent since the brown eyed girls. SPICA can carry several tunes in a bucket---their debut mini is sophisticated and top notch.
love the song!!!! the mv not so much... and I didn't like the fact they processed boa's voice. I mean, c'mon, you just don't weaken your lead vocalist's part.
hmmmm...ok...the song isn't bad. it bugs me that it downplays their strong vocals. like if i didn't kno any better this song makes it look like only 2 of the members can sing when their first minialbum proves otherwise. they went from being a powerhouse vocal group to musically sounding like any other idol group with 1-2 vocalists a rapper and some glorified backup dancers.
not sure if want.
that being said, the girls look LOVELY. and the choreography looks pretty good. i see their label is invested in getting them off of nugu island---so be it.
i just hope this isn't the beginning of the end where they pull some shit a la t-ara and keep releasing shitty generic tracks to stay relevant after a stellar musical debut.
in other news: this song gets better with repeat listens.
i actually like how they distributed the lines, it's very even and everyone shines. i never knew narae was so pretty, she looks so cute with the right styling! the only thing that bothers me is that they ripped their concept from a group way beneath them but otherwise this is pretty good, even if they still haven't lived up to russian roulette and painkiller.
Say what- sounds like an 80s song?: Shits right up my alley! Alone pt 2?: There's plenty of great 'part 2s' i.e: toy story 2, xmen 2, lord of the rings: the two towers, the godfather: part II.....hehe Don't like those velvet skirts?: Watch velvet make a comeback next season! (loljk..itsnotthebestiagree)
Ngl though, I was waiting for Boa to belt out a huge note, which that didn't happen....but overall I really enjoyed the song!
HOLY CRAP....I can hear the similarities .... HOLY..... I'm total gobsmacked...
Edit: Listened to both at the same time and one's faster with 80s techno, but there are more notes in here to compare the two together than that of Sistar's Alone ("outfit" and "dance").
I was expecting something better, this song is uninteresting and basic imo, and it still reminds me of Sistar's "Alone" and comparing them is not helping me like this song, video or anything.
okay now i've actually WATCHED it and i can say it's not as good as russian roulette or i'll be there (which gave me britney feels). its down there with painkiller. like i'll listen to it because it's not horrible but it doesnt make me want to dance
the song's okay for me and i must be the only one who likes those velvet dresses. the styling for this MV is perfect though wish they'd kept boa's hair red instead. i still love painkiller out of all their releases so far - something about that song just gets me (and i mean in a good way)
ahhh i'm definitely diggin' this song. MAJOR dislike for this video, though. it looks like every other girl group medium tempo 'lonely/sad/where ma man at?' music video. dark alley, sexy dancing, sitting in places... blah.

Date: 2012-11-21 05:27 am (UTC)It bothers me that Narae barely got lines in this song.. :/
Let's hope they don't go down the T-ara route.. it would be very tragic considering Jiwon left T-ara. lol
