This week's Music Monday will make you throw away your shopping bags
and give you Jimmy legs
Like this yo~ Like this~
We absolutely love this song
within the first few seconds of it
we already knew that it was gonna be awesome
bee bee bee beep beep
WIN!!
and apart from the small low in the middle of the song
this was otherwise
fully-rockingly awesome track
But the first few seconds
magical as they were
are lacking
something
something
special
It would have been perfect
if there was something
something add to it in the beginning
you know?!
what?
(JYP~~)
What was that?
(JYP~~)
JAY WHY PEE
I mean c'mon!
This is the WONDER GIRLS
WG are under JYP
Why didn't you whisper , shout out his name?!
sign language his name, that would work
Why isn't there a big billboard or store front
or one of those planes that goes through the sky
with the long messages dragging beside them
saying, 'JYP' !!
There should have been a formation or an entire flash mob
them on the ground and form the letters 'JYP'
while overhead camera looked at it
and all it in majesty
What kind of bizarre land we're living in
JYP, I'm sorry
if we are making fun of whispering it before
I'll take it all back
I just..
I didn't know what I was missing it to
my god...
Martina
How could you not be crying like right now
oh.. what's that??
I'm sorry
I couldn't here you with my outside noise using
diamond tears edge headphones
inspired in musically directed by JYP himself
(JYP~)
I've got two different tears
one for both of my ears
This was a really fun music video
the message was simple and not bugged down by symbolism
or everyone looking serious or upset
or aroused...
Nothing wrong with those types of videos
but sometimes
you just wanna dance and have fun
and this is the song and video for it
That and any Tiara video
NO mix messages here!
OR ARE THERE!?!?!
The puffy dog at the beginning of the video represents innocents
due to his white fur
but later overshadow by the dancing grandmothers
who represents age and inevitable of passing time
which foreshadow by the gathering crowd
which represent the crushing impact of social constraints
which all are metaphor for my
big hairy ball~
SERIOUSLY!
How did this hair get into this ball?
Neocolonialism~!!
That's how!
Another thing that we like about this video is that
it's like in a normal place and normal folks
like you and I can go to
and if you live in Korea that is
This video is in shopping mall
or like in a shopping outlet
where we all gather together to buy discounts and expensive stuff
and try to fool our friends,believing that we paid full prize
for something that was actually discounted
(Simon) and way over our budget
That's right
And all of those some of you might don't like what WGs are wearing
not wearing really unreal, unbelievable outfits
that other people wouldn't possibly wear
We too could dress like that if we wanted to
Though we might not look as good wearing it
especially, Simon wearing a hot pink dress
(Simon) whooh~~ That's so nasty
That's a terrible image
it would come to your belly button
What we are trying to get here is that
not just like super models
or like smoking hot people in like super amazing couture fashion
There are little kids, grannies, or families
and they are all involved like in unpretentious manner
And~ we really liked it
I liked it a lot
All in all
we feel like WGs seems so approachable
and down-to-earth in this video
And it's not often to see K-pop stars
interacting with an outside world in their videos
They are usually in a closed confined set
that attempts to represent the outside world
Like, Bilsa's Beautiful Target
or SHINEE's Hello
Another thing
that we know that they were going for that
kinda imprompt to flash mob kind of video
We thought that it was pretty believably well done
There were couple of dances that were pretty too good looking
or little bit too fashionable to be shopping at an outlet mall
and they were too good at dancing
a.k.a paid back-ip dancers just happened to lounging at the bottom of the
esclator
"oh~ there are WGs, I should just like join this dance
and perfectly smile while I do~"
Didn't fool us there WGs
But rest of the people looked pretty natural
Also we liked the details of everyone pulling out their cameras
to record the event
which I'm sure some of them were genuinely doing it for real
while some of them were doing it for acting sake
to make the video to seem more real
So~ you know
we get all seeing smart-phones out there
Say~ KIMCHI~
OMG!!!
Is that the WONGER GIRLS!?!?
Make sense.... and all of those DSLRs are also plausible
It's time for wonderful adventure...OMG...
Is that the WONDER GIRLS!?!?
But all the handicams..
on tripods??!
I guess it's possible ...if you are the Kardasians..
OMG~ This dress is soooo great~
I'm so happy that I have a camera crew with me
This way I could do a hand free twirl!!
OMG!!
It's the wonderful shirt that I wanted
and it's on SALE!!!
and the WGs...
Hey ! Steady-cam guy
Follow me into the stores
so I could get this on sale
Where are you going Steady-cam guy?
Why are you following the WGs??
[the dance]
This was really super fun great dance
The Wonder Girls kind of reminded me of Super Junior
in the sense of both groups
always have like a really distinct clear movement that you can follow
and remember
and then they add some complicated dance moves
that you kinda like fade out in near the end
kind of like those last words that you mumble quietly when you are insulting someone
This has that same mumblable quality
easy...then not so easy
It might not be a super complicated dance moves
for example like SHINEE's Lucifer
or Infinite's Before the Dawn
But still it's rememberable
In fact, it's so rememberable that we can't help that we try to reproduce the music video
CUE low budget movie
[the english]
As for the English of this song
we've gotta say
5 out of 5
We listened to the song few time over
and tried to find something wrong
pronunciation or something
but we've got nothing
Even the word 'this', often mispronounced
says 'thiz..' as in
was not mispronounced
It was actually perfect
it was solid from start to finish
so, 5 out of 5
[the showdown]
For last week's early Halloween edition
we asked which band's custom do you preferred
TVXQ's in Triangle
or BIGBANG in Monster
and it was very close
but the winners in the end were
BIGBANG~
WOW I thought TVXQ was going to take it
but a lot of people said that they laughed at the TVXQ's custom
they were kind of like goofy
Other people said that they loved it
that they looked so animated
But in the end, BIGBANG took it
Congratulations~ BIGBANG
For this week's Like this edition, we ask you
Which likes you like like?
WG's Like this
or Bilasa's Beautiful Target
"We like it like it like this~""
