    I do feel like people tend to believe everything is an Easter egg, and it can set their expectations too high/disappoint them when they are wrong and nothing happens

    Taylor's easter eggs are usually straightforward, but swifties (us) take them to a mile, magnifying every single detail, doing calculations and charting stars making her easter eggs seem more than what they are

    Easter eggs are a way to keep fans engaged in away, and they're not a new concept, been done before. Though one this about taylor switch fans is that they do take it a bit too deep, when most of her eggs are hidden very straightforward but some how the fans make it seem like it's something more mysterious than in reality it is.

  • @lola9148
    @lola9148 7 месяцев назад +1

    A very cool modern example of hidden track Easter eggs was with LOONA yyxy's debut (and only) mini album, where the physical CDs would actually have a different dance break in their promoted single love4eva. I think they had 3 or 4 different dance breaks, which they'd perform during the promotion circuit and have different choreography to go with esch. Like imagine you buy a CD and when you listen to it, the song is what you knew but suddenly sounds completely different for like 10 seconds. Honestly I'd be spooked!!! I was a fan back then already but had no idea this happened until a few weeks ago when other orbits were talking about it. Considering Loona albums were never reprinted, it makes those rare dance break versions even rarer.
    I think the lore oriented kpop groups really thrive in Easter eggs. Recently ATEEZ had a random number sequence in the chorus and turns out it's like drawing out the shape of one of their lore symbols in a 3x3 keyboard 😭

    I don't think something counts as an Easter egg if it references the story, that's just foreshadowing or crafting a detailed story world. It's only an Easter egg if it references something in the real world like another movie or a real person

    One of my favorite music Easter eggs is in Empty Spaces by Pink Floyd where if you play it backwards it says “Congratulations you found the secret message” and they did this because at the time there were all these conspiracy theories about musicians hiding subliminal messages in songs and that you could find them by playing records backwards and stuff so they thought it’d be funny to actually put something in the song

    I watch and love all your videos!💕 I was just surprised with no mention of the Beatles? They invented the easter eggs in music (from 1966’s Sgt Pepper album). although nobody called them “easter eggs” then, they included little clues and cryptic hints in their albums and videos.

  • @str4ngevibe
    @str4ngevibe 8 месяцев назад +1

    8:05 actually there kinda is a way ive seen artists do this in the streaming format! basically theres one actual audio track but theres two songs on it, so like the "main" song will play and then after it ends there will be a "hidden" song. these are not the best examples bc theyre before the streaming era, theyre also both jpop lol but ayumi hamasaki does this with the track "who" on her album loveappears and namie amuro does this with "no" on her album queen of hippop (unfortunately her entire discography has been wiped from all streaming services but.......) so not entirely like how physical albums would do it but still rlly fun to discover nonetheless ^_^

    They can be really fun and enriching!I never would have bother to look into so many interesting topic they incorporated into the story otherwise.They encourage people to get creative, research and think outside the box! Plus the endorphins you get when you solve a puzzle are thrilling! hahahah!

    If we are gonna talk about music video Easter Eggs and K-pop is involved, Twice is a late majority. Loona is the group you wanna look at, although they've disbanded, their time as a group is a testament to the effectiveness of Easter Eggs as marketing. (Yes I know they're ARTMS and Loossemble, they're still not technically Loona anymore)

    I think horror content often rewards you with Easter eggs upon rewatch. HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE comes to mind; there are so many ghosts in the back of scenes you might not notice the first time through. HEREDITARY, also, there’s so much to unpack on rewatch. Love stuff like that.
