As I saw this I was like oh, that was it about!

Sigh. I was hoping someone would fess up and admit the idol life isn't what it's cracked up to be.

taeyeon literally screams it from the rooftops

pretty vocals but ugh this is soooo boring. and i love ballads! this is just one of those boring ones though :// they should've released another song like Rock Ur Body instead cause this is making me fall asleep

lmao i legit thought this was in french at first, the first word sounds like a foreigner like me saying "je ne sais"...

pretty song but waiting for the live to see how this comeback/image change pans out. i'm not usually a ballad person though...

Upgrade because Ravi didn't get to show off his atrocious rapping. And this doesn't sound like a generic boring sleep inducing ballad to me.

Gonna go look for a translation of this song.

they seemed like nice dudes, eager to please their fans at KCON.

I tagged along with a friend to see them at KCON, though I had no idea who they were, but somehow got pushed to the front of the line, during their Q&A session. Kinda embarrassing because they kept looking at me expecting me to squee with excitement and all I could do was just smile at them politely and take some pics for my friend since I had such a clear view of them. Chicas be crying all around me.

I checked up later to learn more about them. Liked "Rock Your Body," kinda meh on their other stuff. Glad to see them releasing another single.

Sounds good to me. I didn't like Rock your body. I did like Superhero minus the rap parts.

[strawberry-efeu.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's nice. I love most any ballad that involves a guitar :)

Gorgeous song, the sentiment fits so well in line with Moon Heejun's Sccandal too which I find interesting and I like this almost as much as his song :)

They have really sweet voices, the song is okay-ish, abit generic.

[sub-divided.livejournal.com]

So if enough people like this song and it becomes popular, does that lead to the conflicting situation where it shores up the idol career VIXX say they don't want?

Or is it a situation where if they were more popular/successful, they'd like being idols more?

Love Superhero, thought Rock Ur Body was a bit generic (but it had a great video).

Haha this is my sort of genre but I had to listen to it a few times for it to stick. Idk, maybe the melody's not catchy enough? It's pretty though.

[soramai.livejournal.com]

I like the song!
