This song is connected to their first album given taken and let me in song i hope check out .,pls watch their border day 1 trailer part 1&2 to understand more what is their concept its a very unique concept coz their narrating the trailer .
I'm more of a 2nd gen stan and I dabble a bit in 3rd gen, but this song is legit one of the best kpop songs I've heard in years. It proves to us that you don't need the main vocalist belting sky high notes to make a good song.
Not gonna lie, this past two weeks my mind has been going back to the daze, daze, daze part! It is so catchy, hype song I think it will take a while to grow old and even then probably will bop to it when it comes in the playlist
this song is GOD TIER. like the interplay between major and minor, reminds me so much of carnival music??? The avoidance of the 3 in the bridge leaves it feeling open, so you need the bass progression reintroduced in the return of the chorus. The intro and first portion just hits so strong, especially with the M/m play. It's too good.
As someone who wasn't super impressed with ENHYPEN's music up to this point, Drunk-Dazed absolutely blew me away. That chorus is everything, it never gets old. Definitely one of the best title tracks to be released so far this year.
Tbh, because the mv had so many breaks I really wasn't hooked on given-taken. The verses and pre-chorus REALLY fit my taste but I couldn't get a feel for the chorus. But I kept coming back to it and I really love it now. DRUNK-DAZED was an immediate love for me though.
@@x.mono.x4011 As someone who became an Engene recently, Given-Taken was boring for me at first listen. When they debuted, I watched the MV, and ended the video after the first chorus. I decided to wait for their comeback song, and then Drunk-Dazed came out, it was an instant love for me. I decided to listen to G-T again for a few times after that, and came to like the song, but not to the extent how much I love D-D.
I loved this song!! I’m glad y’all liked it!!! I wasn’t a fun of their first song, but this song alone was able to turn me into a fan. It’s absolutely spectacular, I think, and it’ll probably be one of my favorite songs of the year.
I agree! I was sleeping on them until I decided to listen to this song, and even when I went back to their other title tracks they didn't catch me like this one did XD
CHECK THEIR ALBUMS ( Border : day one & Border : Carnival ) Both their albums are a masterpiece, no skips. I highly recommend 'Fever' if you like something slow, reeaaally goood.
Kevin : okay, ship ship ship Umu : "..." Umu : SHIP? Kevin : i dunno them but i ship them Umu : okay. The love triangle or just this? Kevin : oh it's a triangle What conversation that i heard? I'am deaddddd 😂
I actually loved the outro, probably one of my favorite parts of the song. I agree that it didn't feel satisfying but I think that's what just made it seem so perfect. It felt kind of incomplete but I loved the melody line of it.
Yeah and also it feels like the whole thing is finally and climactically getting becoming chaos. The whole melody is quite and fast and brief in the outro and the way it's minor it feels menacing but the "ohahoh" feels much more positive feeling making us confused as to what's going on thematically in the song. And bcoz it feels incomplete it's surprisingly not only making us re-listen to song many times but also hypes us for the the next comeback with their universe.
If I'm correct, their concept is vampires! So the party could have to do with the fact that it's a cover for the members--as vampires--to feed on people, hence the bloody birthday party. If you notice, there's a portion of the video where the room is full with people and then the next moment it is not. In certain vampire content/lore, vampires can experience a sort of drug like effect from gorging on blood that leaves them all drunk and dazed 👀 and the red water in the glasses could be blood. Every time one of the members takes a drink they react the same way someone taking a shot would and everyone knows the effects of having too many shots haha. long story short: the members drank the blood of everyone at the party, gorged on their blood on the day that Jungwon turned into a vampire--which is a whole other theory i have--and the werewolves (which are K and EJ, who are gonna be in a new Hybe group) are hunting them down to either kill them or tell them about a hunter (i'm not too sure on this portion, but i think the girl is gonna be a hunter or something) trying to hunt them down
It would be better if you introduced the original artists of this comeback more than the cameos cuz they're the one who's singing this song and these musicians are reacting to THEIR song with THEIR voices, not the MV.
@@sunoosacclaimedboyfriend2646 sorry! I was under the impression that umu and Kevin already have a solid grasp of the enhypen members, but might not know the I-land contestants who cameoed. that's the reason why I mentioned their names specifically!
ENHYPEN is consisting of 7 members and they are 15-19 years old teenagers with mostly short trained members. Heeseung (01 liner), Jay (02 liner), Jake (02 liner), Sunghoon (02 liner), Sunoo (03 liner), Jungwon (04 liner), Ni-Ki (05 liner)! This is their first ever comeback after 5 months of debut. This comeback album is called "BORDER: CARNIVAL". It has 4 songs and and an intro and the outro. You can also check out their debut song "Given-Taken" as well as well! (Their debut album is called "BORDER: DAY ONE"). As they said before, "BORDER: CARNIVAL" is the end of the border series. Hope this helps.
yes you're right. but just want to let you know that the main producer is wonderkid whom for me, has written quite a lot of bop songs. way home - txt, into the iland, flame on - ilanders and many more
@@chimreaper885 oh, i did know there was another producer but I didn't know he was the main producer. May I know how to find out who the main producer is for the song? or where to get the info? thanks.
@@PixelBraint YEAH ME TOO. thats my most fav song from minisode ep1. oh btw, i made mistake, he didnt produce flame on. he also produced cwjltma, can we just leave the monster alive by txt
@@eksfurple if you want to see the credits for new enhypen songs, just go watch their album preview. they put the producer and writer credits in the video
The lyrics of the song are very funny considering you said it's really addicting "replay replay replay" "can't control my body dance dance dance". The song is very self aware 😂
I only have two groups that I buy albums from, but I ordered an album from Enhypen literally right after listening to this track for the first time. I'm so happy with what they put out, just makes me want to support them.
I just want to say, guys please watch the dance practice. The dance in the 2 last chorus was honestly phenomenal. Probably some of the best choreo of all time.
This has been on repeat since it came out, it’s so addicting and I think it’s my favorite song of the year Already. To what UMU said the bridge is so beautifully done I enjoy it so much every time I listen to the song and To what Kevin said I actually loved the last chorus it’s like an ear-candy LOL, well to me at least
Based on their debut I thought I wouldn't be particularly fond of Enhyphen (it wasn't bad! just not my taste), but DAMN this song is a BOP and I will 100% be following them from now on
Thank you so much for the support!! Have you checked the whole album? Because all songs are a bop! I highly recommend Fever and Mixed Up, then Not For Sale performance-wise, and if you like a light concept. I still cant choose my favorite song lol. I also recommend listening to their debut album too. The title track may not be your taste but the b-sides are not as “experimental” as Given-Taken so I feel like you’ll like it! Let Me In is addicting as well.
fair warning I know zero musical terms but in the chorus, there's like edited horns or tubas of a sort and I'M OBSESSED IT SOUNDS SO GOOD IT RIDES ALONG WITH THE BASS AND IT'S LIKE BAAAAAAAM BAAAAAAAAAM BAAAAAM I JUST LOVE IT SO MUCH
Yass. Even though they only have 2 singles, they are one of the current most exiting names in kpop at the moment for me, great to hear your explanation. Also i do agree about the composition, im not sure how many melody writers can make so much with 1 motif and play around with little twists it so effectively
When they said indie, I think about the intro of this EP because that's my exact thought when I first heard it. Kind of like an indie pop rock track. I wish they made it into a whole song, though.
I'm so glad you liked the comeback, it did not dissapoint at all and the whole ep actually went above my expectations, I'm in love with Fever and the Intro/Outros are amazing too, and if we talk about the performance aspect of it, SO GOOD they're already showing so much grow as artists, so overall in love with this new era of them and the musical aspect that they're leaning to
Can confirm that countless listens after, I'm still just as addicted to this song as the first time I heard it! I also absolutely loveeeee the concept/story!
I knew of Enhypen from their debut, but Drunk-Dazed made me fan! Not just the song, but the choreography is crazy good too, just a top quality comeback from these guys. I really liked the b-sides from this album too especially Fever and Mixed Up.
in the beginning when kevin suddenly said "ship" i literally made a surprised pikachu face LOLL that was so random and unexpected XD thanks for reacting to this song it's a whole bop :D ✨
I will keep saying it again and again, but I really _really_ appreciate the analysis you provide. I don't have any academic credentials with music, but I have always loved it and always listen and re-listen to songs and find new things I didn't notice before. I think when I listen to you guys talk, you're providing the vocabulary to express what I like and how I like it. Thank you as always. Please take care of yourselves. We appreciate your hard work!!!
There will always be personal preferences. But for this song...even if u dun vibe with it, u can't deny it's kind of a bop. It's catchy, upbeat and bold. Applause for the 5 months old ENHYPEN 💜
their concept is about vampires and the theories are CRAZY asf, some have to do with greek mythology, the storyline seems like it’s gonna be even more incredible and i’m so excited for what they’re gonna come up with in their next cb :3
As someone who’s been listening to kpop for many years, I haven’t been really impressed with many new boy groups music recently. But enhypen’s songs have been soooo addicting. How are their songs so good?!!
I actually LOVE the outro. I think that it is a great resolution, and even though it may not entirely resolve musically it makes the song feel complete to me. It is super catchy and gorgeous in my opinion, I find myself singing that part almost as much as the chorus.
i agree i cant' believe some of them are barely like legal age. lol, Niki maybe not even being so... lol. i like that each group so far is it's own thing, and has it s own unique and slightly bizarre world, as well as different sounds and playing with different subgenres.
Omg thank you for your breakdown of the elements of this song!! I could NOT put my finger on why it was so addictive. You all explained everything so perfectly
i KNEW you guys would love this song. enhypen might just be rookies but "drunk-dazed" got me hooked at first listen which is really rare for me, and i just can't get it out of my head. they play around with thrilling yet delicate sounds, the beat is present but not too heavy, the vocals are whispery but not overly breathy, and don't even get me started on the harmonies... and of course the associated imagery fits perfectly, following up this vampire theme that i thought i would be super cringe but somehow isn't. this song is thrilling, elegant, and incredibly seductive. i can't get enough of it.
OMG UMUUU. I am also obsessed with this song and also I'm obsessed with the choreo. I have this song stuck in my head since it came out. It's been weeks and I literally wake up in the morning and this song is playing in my head. This is so incredibly catchy. Thanks for the analysis. I really needed someone to tell me why this is so addictive.
Althought I liked Given-Taken, I thought it was fairly safe and nothing out of the ordinary. But this song is crazy, its SO GOOD. Such a great first comeback, I haven’t gotten sick of it yet! Thanks for the reaction!
This song has been stuck in my head for a few days!! The chorus is just bomb! The MV is connected to their storyline, I recommend you check out their debut MV! Get well soon Umu! I have the same thing but in my shoulders (Rotator Cuff Tendinitis turned Frozen Shoulder) and I have to go through PT twice a week 🥲.
thank you so much for reacting -- i love this song and it was nice to hear what makes it so addicting! umu: i hope your hands are okay!! i don't know what you meant in the beginning abt them but i hope you're alright!
When you're ENGENE and streaming the song for the Nth time in the first 24 hours to hit goals, the saving grace of 'Drunk-Dazed' was the bass line and Sunoo. Thank goodness they moved on to 'Fever' - they hit Billboard #1 World Albums with that song! (And debuted #18 Billboard 100 and Billboard 200 - pretty damn good for being in the industry for less than six month!)
I can already say this will definitely be one of my favorites of the year, I love this song so much! And I'm always so grateful for your videos because as someone with next to no knowledge of music theory, I love listening to a song I love and then coming here and finding out why it sounds so good, and discovering new things I didn't even hear before!
Thank you for listening into drunk-dazed. I love how you point out the melodies and everything. I think this was the first video that only talks about melody and I love it. I love how you guys knew the tune and everything its very nice that you guys reacted to this. Again thank yiu for reactio g to enhypen drunk-dazed 😊 You guys should also check out not for sale & mixed up and it also have a performance video 7 choreography There is also another one called FEVER its also a nice song jts just sad that it doesn't have any performance video and choreography but I can assure you that its really good also. Also there is also an upcoming Japanese debut album of enhypen on july 6, 2021 its called BORDER TRANSIEST(HAKANAI)
Thank you so much for reacting/analyzing Enhypen! I enjoyed your comments! I hope you check out more of their work. They are a rookie group (1yr old just last month) and have achieved so much already, but their growth is always so impressive! I know they will continue to improve more and more and have a very successful career! I hope you join us Engene as we follow Enhypen on their path. The company has great composers, producers, and performance directors and all the group members are ACEs! Love from the USA 🇺🇸 to fellow Kpop stans!
the chorus with the bg vocals werent my fave when i first heard this song so i was surprised yall actually liked it but now i dont mind it though i prefer given-taken more! also the song called fever in this album is my fave for sure im upset they didnt perform it in their comeback show
The first time I watched the MV, I found it weird and I didn't like it much but now I love this song, so addictive ! I'm not a musician but I love your reactions and analysis, your channel is awesome 😍 Hope you get better soon Umu, love from France ❤️
Really good first comeback for Enhypen. Fever and Not for Sale for easy listening. And Drunk-Daze for Friday. I totally get that feeling of they’re partying on the next room and I’m just in my room having a party of one 😂 love it
I’m glad I’m not the only one that was hooked into being an enhyphen fan because of drunk dazed. Their earlier songs just weren’t doing it for me but i could listen to drunk dazed for hours
i love this so much aaaa the way you guys really went and talked about the parts and notes, you should try listening to their albums’ b sides too !! ^.^ I personally think you would love their whole discography, it’s all well-produced
loved your thoughts on this so much!! i feel like enhypen is such a well produced group, in that they have interesting motifs that appear in interesting ways. like their branding motif hyphen, both (& presumably all future) title tracks being hyphenated word plays, and its appearance and variations on album cover arts, all the possible iterations n meanings a hyphen can have...they have a lot to work with. the blood stuff; the lines "ill be your boyfriend ill give you my blood" from the last album were stuck in my head even before this bc it was just odd and funny but then it connects to this blood party carnival theme. and i didnt hear it without you guys saying it, but the "party in another room" vibe and the mixing of minor/major is such a good expression of drunkenness/daze. so well done!
Thanks to non-engenes for you kind words, we really appreciate it ❤️ our boys worked really hard for this one (almost 12 hours per day of practice) the coreo its insane (watch studio choom ver.) their glow up as a group its absolutely insane theyre worth to stan❣️

the album name is "BORDER: CARNIVAL" 😭
the M/m aspect is my favorite part, it gives the song so much texture
I don't understand what you talking about but it sounds great so thank you for your explanation
this shows that not all kpop groups really need a rapper or someone belting a random highnote in a song
i agree!!

I'm so glad you liked the comeback, it did not dissapoint at all and the whole ep actually went above my expectations, I'm in love with Fever and the Intro/Outros are amazing too, and if we talk about the performance aspect of it, SO GOOD they're already showing so much grow as artists, so overall in love with this new era of them and the musical aspect that they're leaning to
Can confirm that countless listens after, I'm still just as addicted to this song as the first time I heard it! I also absolutely loveeeee the concept/story!
This song is addictive, I’ve had it on repeat since it came out 😆 can confirm it only grows on you lol.
I knew of Enhypen from their debut, but Drunk-Dazed made me fan! Not just the song, but the choreography is crazy good too, just a top quality comeback from these guys. I really liked the b-sides from this album too especially Fever and Mixed Up.
Thank you for validating my obsession! I wake up thinking about this song. It's a problem.
Kevin’s mention of the bridge being shoegaze-y was a great way to put it
in the beginning when kevin suddenly said "ship" i literally made a surprised pikachu face LOLL that was so random and unexpected XD thanks for reacting to this song it's a whole bop :D ✨
I’m happy you guys enjoyed this song
I will keep saying it again and again, but I really _really_ appreciate the analysis you provide. I don't have any academic credentials with music, but I have always loved it and always listen and re-listen to songs and find new things I didn't notice before. I think when I listen to you guys talk, you're providing the vocabulary to express what I like and how I like it. Thank you as always. Please take care of yourselves. We appreciate your hard work!!!
Happy to see ENHYPEN in your channel & good thing you liked it. thank you for your reaction.
There will always be personal preferences. But for this song...even if u dun vibe with it, u can't deny it's kind of a bop. It's catchy, upbeat and bold. Applause for the 5 months old ENHYPEN 💜
their concept is about vampires and the theories are CRAZY asf, some have to do with greek mythology, the storyline seems like it’s gonna be even more incredible and i’m so excited for what they’re gonna come up with in their next cb :3
As someone who’s been listening to kpop for many years, I haven’t been really impressed with many new boy groups music recently. But enhypen’s songs have been soooo addicting. How are their songs so good?!!
Kudos to their production team
I actually LOVE the outro. I think that it is a great resolution, and even though it may not entirely resolve musically it makes the song feel complete to me. It is super catchy and gorgeous in my opinion, I find myself singing that part almost as much as the chorus.
This song is genuinely so good, its got people who don’t listen to enhypen or even bgs jamming along
i agree i cant' believe some of them are barely like legal age. lol, Niki maybe not even being so... lol. i like that each group so far is it's own thing, and has it s own unique and slightly bizarre world, as well as different sounds and playing with different subgenres.
This song is SOO addicting, i cant handle it :D listen to it all the time.. The ending always give me chills.. Just wow. Thanks for the reaction :)
Omg this is so unexpected!! Drunk-Dazed is that party anthem :D
"it's cranberry juice" LMAOOOOO GDSFHSJDJF i've been waiting for this!!!
Omg thank you for your breakdown of the elements of this song!! I could NOT put my finger on why it was so addictive. You all explained everything so perfectly
You know that the song is good when ReacttotheK reacts to it. I have been playing this song since its release. Such a bop
fave song off the album? fever! dat shit is on repeat atm
I'm so addicted to this song also the whole album😫
Also Umu get better soon!❤
i KNEW you guys would love this song. enhypen might just be rookies but "drunk-dazed" got me hooked at first listen which is really rare for me, and i just can't get it out of my head. they play around with thrilling yet delicate sounds, the beat is present but not too heavy, the vocals are whispery but not overly breathy, and don't even get me started on the harmonies... and of course the associated imagery fits perfectly, following up this vampire theme that i thought i would be super cringe but somehow isn't. this song is thrilling, elegant, and incredibly seductive. i can't get enough of it.
OMG UMUUU. I am also obsessed with this song and also I'm obsessed with the choreo. I have this song stuck in my head since it came out. It's been weeks and I literally wake up in the morning and this song is playing in my head. This is so incredibly catchy. Thanks for the analysis. I really needed someone to tell me why this is so addictive.
AAAH i was waiting for you guys to react on this!! so glad you like it
I miss this and the song is sooooo good. Get well soon Umu!😊
Althought I liked Given-Taken, I thought it was fairly safe and nothing out of the ordinary. But this song is crazy, its SO GOOD. Such a great first comeback, I haven’t gotten sick of it yet! Thanks for the reaction!
This song has been stuck in my head for a few days!! The chorus is just bomb! The MV is connected to their storyline, I recommend you check out their debut MV! Get well soon Umu! I have the same thing but in my shoulders (Rotator Cuff Tendinitis turned Frozen Shoulder) and I have to go through PT twice a week 🥲.
Absolutely love the description of the song being played in the room next door it’s so accurate!!
Get better soon Umu 💜
This song is so catchy it's amazing. I usually never like songs when hearing them for the first time, but this one I knew I loved from the start.
Mixed-up is the best off this album for SURE
I have had this on loop for the past week and i am convinced its laced with something
thank you so much for reacting -- i love this song and it was nice to hear what makes it so addicting! umu: i hope your hands are okay!! i don't know what you meant in the beginning abt them but i hope you're alright!
i swear they put crack in this song i cant stop listening to it
When you're ENGENE and streaming the song for the Nth time in the first 24 hours to hit goals, the saving grace of 'Drunk-Dazed' was the bass line and Sunoo. Thank goodness they moved on to 'Fever' - they hit Billboard #1 World Albums with that song! (And debuted #18 Billboard 100 and Billboard 200 - pretty damn good for being in the industry for less than six month!)
AAAA THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! drunk-dazed rlly was one of the greatest comebacks this year. i loved the ep too
I can already say this will definitely be one of my favorites of the year, I love this song so much! And I'm always so grateful for your videos because as someone with next to no knowledge of music theory, I love listening to a song I love and then coming here and finding out why it sounds so good, and discovering new things I didn't even hear before!
Thank you for listening into drunk-dazed. I love how you point out the melodies and everything.
I think this was the first video that only talks about melody and I love it. I love how you guys knew the tune and everything its very nice that you guys reacted to this. Again thank yiu for reactio g to enhypen drunk-dazed 😊
You guys should also check out not for sale & mixed up and it also have a performance video 7 choreography
There is also another one called FEVER its also a nice song jts just sad that it doesn't have any performance video and choreography but I can assure you that its really good also.
Also there is also an upcoming Japanese debut album of enhypen on july 6, 2021 its called BORDER TRANSIEST(HAKANAI)
I don't know how many times I've listened to this song, and even watch every single of their stages, I'm still addicted to it.
As someone who has been listening to this song ever since the second teaser came out, YES IT'S ADDICTING
Thank you so much for reacting/analyzing Enhypen! I enjoyed your comments! I hope you check out more of their work. They are a rookie group (1yr old just last month) and have achieved so much already, but their growth is always so impressive! I know they will continue to improve more and more and have a very successful career! I hope you join us Engene as we follow Enhypen on their path. The company has great composers, producers, and performance directors and all the group members are ACEs! Love from the USA 🇺🇸 to fellow Kpop stans!
Hope you get better soon Umu!
OH MY GOD? I wasn't expecting a reaction, I'm legitimately so excited for this!!
4 months later and its still one of my favorite songs
the chorus with the bg vocals werent my fave when i first heard this song so i was surprised yall actually liked it but now i dont mind it though i prefer given-taken more! also the song called fever in this album is my fave for sure im upset they didnt perform it in their comeback show
The first time I watched the MV, I found it weird and I didn't like it much but now I love this song, so addictive ! I'm not a musician but I love your reactions and analysis, your channel is awesome 😍 Hope you get better soon Umu, love from France ❤️
Really good first comeback for Enhypen. Fever and Not for Sale for easy listening. And Drunk-Daze for Friday. I totally get that feeling of they’re partying on the next room and I’m just in my room having a party of one 😂 love it
I'm glad other people saw this and thought of Married to the Music too. Both are such fun music videos
Same!! Fell in love to this song since teaser.
I love to see the shocked faces when the chorus play, it is priceless
I’m glad I’m not the only one that was hooked into being an enhyphen fan because of drunk dazed. Their earlier songs just weren’t doing it for me but i could listen to drunk dazed for hours
i love this so much aaaa the way you guys really went and talked about the parts and notes, you should try listening to their albums’ b sides too !! ^.^ I personally think you would love their whole discography, it’s all well-produced
loved your thoughts on this so much!! i feel like enhypen is such a well produced group, in that they have interesting motifs that appear in interesting ways.
like their branding motif hyphen, both (& presumably all future) title tracks being hyphenated word plays, and its appearance and variations on album cover arts, all the possible iterations n meanings a hyphen can have...they have a lot to work with.
the blood stuff; the lines "ill be your boyfriend ill give you my blood" from the last album were stuck in my head even before this bc it was just odd and funny but then it connects to this blood party carnival theme.
and i didnt hear it without you guys saying it, but the "party in another room" vibe and the mixing of minor/major is such a good expression of drunkenness/daze. so well done!
2:59 *"It's cranberry juice"* .......yeah you just keep telling yourself that Kevin
Thanks to non-engenes for you kind words, we really appreciate it ❤️ our boys worked really hard for this one (almost 12 hours per day of practice) the coreo its insane (watch studio choom ver.) their glow up as a group its absolutely insane theyre worth to stan❣️
Pls react to their whole album, they really did well in this comeback 🥺
13:56 yeah as a moagene i feel that two song like have a same purpose concept,
sorry for ma bad english, hard to describe it
