I AM SO HAPPY WITH THIS REVIEW OMG. I'm so glad that you actually took the time to review the song rather than do a bunch of skits in place of the actual reviewing! Please keep doing this, I love it when you guys do this kind of stuff. Can't wait for next weeks KMM!
Batoost is awesome! Love their new song. You guys are living my dream life, im only 16 but as soon as I am old enough me and my friend want to move to Seoul and experience all the cool Korean stuff you have showed us in your videos!
Simon, it's beast, not batoost. The 2 is suppose to be 2 in korean ee, and I know you know it but, seriously..... Now I'm calling them batoost and I can't stop!!! You ruined my life!!! Just kidding, but I occasionally call them batoost because it's in my head lol
Finally a good KMM after about a year or so (i think the last great one you did was for Gangnam Style)! This wasn't filled with bitterness and complaints, and not too many skits. Instead you guys actually managed to say positive things about the video for more than 30 seconds (which has sadly become the standard). I really hope that you will continue this good "trend" next time !
No. There's a glitch in the system in which Disqus can't handle over 9000 comments on a single post. I don't know what to do to fix it. You guise broke it!
JunHyung actually helped produce and create their new album Hard to Love, How to Love (he also thought of the theme and lyrics for some of the songs). He also helped in the making of Yosoeb's Caffeine MV and T-ara's Lovey Dovey. He is really a super talented person!
My name is Shadow! All my friends that love B2st say when they listened to this song they think of me! "Because I'm Shadow shadow shadow..." Also now I know what it would sound like if yall said my name! Awesome!!!! ^.^
"...even when the end of the world is nigh upon us and it looks like all hope for the future is lost, is it that even then...kpop bands can't get a day off from their companies" LITERALLY LOST IT THERE IT WAS A GLORIOUS LINE
He didn't help, he produced the album and composed all of the songs in there with his partner. He also produced Yoseob's album and wrote 3 of the songs including Caffeine. As for Lovey Dovey, he didn't actually write the song but gave Shinsadong Tiger the idea of the song. Tiger certainly raised him well. 4 years ago he knew nothing about composing, and now he's making fresh songs like Shadow. I've listened to the whole album and I'm really impressed. I didn't expect this much versatility.
The singing was also very evenly split amongst all the members, which you don't find very often. Weaker singers tend only get at most a verse and most of the singing goes to the strongest singers, but it really feels like they gave every member an equal amount. Just goes to show how good Batoost is as a whole and how much each member has grown. Yay!
Why so series? Exchanging the opinions about culture and kpop by using humer is what Simon and Martian bringing us. I appreciate all the videos they made which they put a lot effort in.
you must try bigbang...i was biased and refused to listen to them but my friend convinced me to. I am glad i did they are really good and pretty diverse with their songs.
Since they said they there will be another version of Growl,I hope you will review it after the other version out..because the mv is a one take and the only thing that you can talk about the video is only about the dance..
when simon first gave them a 5 out of 5 for their english I was like 'Am I missing out on something?' and then he's like oh no I heard the rest of your song, it's 1 out of 5. And then I'm like 'Justice is done.'
I actually really liked he dance they had for this video. I don't know why but every time the song gets to the chorus, I find myself doing the shoulder dance :D
Copyright law allows exceptions. It is considered fair use to use a brief clip of a video or movie for criticism. There are other fair use exceptions, but for EYK this is the one that applies. So they are not doing anything.
For me, it felt like a rookie group could've done this song. I feel like this song is good just because of the fact that Beast did it. But that's a good thing. That means they made that song their own.
Shadow is the legendary song that changed my friends' opinion about K-pop. Also Dongwoon and Doojoon changed their opinion about Asian guys :) One of them keeps sending me Doojoon pics from her work place. The other one keeps sending me the lyrics of the song. She also sent me Fiction MV asking if I watched it... At first I was glad they liked b2st but now they kinda became disturbing... I've got work to do too...
I pick Jaejoong's even if I'm Beast biased.It's so damn creepy I shiver everytime I watch it.Love the both of these songs,my favourite theme out of all those mv themes in K-pop.
I'm surprised you didn't like the dance. To be honest I'm a fan of Prepix and they usually work with beast. I thought this was their best collaboration. The dance fits the song perfectly as if the song was made for this choreo. There are more than 5-6 highlights in the choreo and they are all memorable. I just had to comment because I really am a fan of Prepix and I would like people to recognize their awesome innovative choreos..
You two are so charismatic that I find myself watching marathons of your shows even though they're about things I didn't know anything about.
Thanks to Simon, now I call Beast "Batoost" and B1A4 "Bilasa".... Batoost sounds funny, but Bilasa.... it's a great name :D
I really enjoyed the rap in the first part of Shadow - "rainy, cloudy, no light, darkness.. " ain't the only one here right? :X
Simon of course they were saying "I'm Shadow" theyre CLEARLY talking about Shadow the Hedgehog! c'mon!
I AM SO HAPPY WITH THIS REVIEW OMG. I'm so glad that you actually took the time to review the song rather than do a bunch of skits in place of the actual reviewing! Please keep doing this, I love it when you guys do this kind of stuff. Can't wait for next weeks KMM!
I totally loved the rap ♥ Joker is an amazing rapper *_* und their dance was perfect , too :)
JYJ's masterpiece for Ayy Girl. LOLOL.
people read it 'batoost' or 'beast', but somehow i always read it as 'best'
i don't understand why they call it as batoost, mind to explain? :)
beast is written B2ST. B-two-ST. so it becomes batoost
i see, thanks
Batoost is awesome! Love their new song. You guys are living my dream life, im only 16 but as soon as I am old enough me and my friend want to move to Seoul and experience all the cool Korean stuff you have showed us in your videos!
I just spent like 20 minutes searching for a song that I was so obsessed with and I'm happy I could finally remember it, thank god.
Did anyone notice GD in the video frame at 1:03 ?
BUT THEN JUNHYUNG WROTE IT! ;A; BTW, to help you guys with everything about these kpop groups, watch Weekly Idol! :D
omg Weekly Idol is amazing xD So hilarious
Simon, it's beast, not batoost. The 2 is suppose to be 2 in korean ee, and I know you know it but, seriously..... Now I'm calling them batoost and I can't stop!!! You ruined my life!!! Just kidding, but I occasionally call them batoost because it's in my head lol
They just say the article "a" really quickly, but it's there. Correct grammar--at least for the chorus.
I was really happy to have this mv reviewed! I love the dark artsy mv of B2ST. I was rooting for this to be reviewed!!
English subs are now up if you want em :D
Ah! We ruined the audio today. We have a new audio recorder, and forgot to set the sensitivity lower, so it got a bit overblown. Sorry :(
In the info box there is a link to our blog post and the poll it at them bottom! :D
I don't have the time! We've got so many things going on right now. Ahhh!

I miss this Music Mondays so much!! There are others RUclipsrs who do this kind of video?
OMG OMG YES YES YES!!! :D U reviewed beast's shadow!!! LOVE YA

I've been waiting for this video~
Keep this KMM format guise. This is the best format ^^

Best English review ever!! Thank you for making me laugh! :)

Just goes to show how good Batoost is as a whole and how much each member has grown. Yay!
This is one of the best music Mondays ever :D just for the comedy really
I can't call them B2ST anymore, Batoost automatically comes out now. Thanks a lot Simon!
Hey Simon love your dictionary shirt haha. I agree with the kpop apocalypse with the dark and scary sets :D
LMAO! I honestly died when Simon was talking about the English in the song. Great job guys that was hilarious! XD
It is allowed. Copyright law has exceptions called fair use. Criticism is one of them.
I can give one to you, if you want one
B.A.P! Yay! Glad they won. Alright, could you guys make a TL;DR about Visas and how the whole thing works with them? It would really be helpful.
Martina, your earrings are awesome!
"Even then! Kpop bands can't get a day off from their companies... DAMN YOU AND YOUR SLAVE CONTRACTS!"
LOL loved this XD
Why so series? Exchanging the opinions about culture and kpop by using humer is what Simon and Martian bringing us. I appreciate all the videos they made which they put a lot effort in.
I seriously can't decide on who's video was the best... but I'll just go with BEAST!
Woah Simon you have the "Boys Have A Desire" hat that Donghae wears!!
you must try bigbang...i was biased and refused to listen to them but my friend convinced me to. I am glad i did they are really good and pretty diverse with their songs.
i hate the idea having to choice between this two epic video but I love B2ST!
B2ST- Shadow
Jaejoong of course, such a great production!
Btw, I'm such a fan of Simon's caps :O
That ending was adorable! :3
Top comment will be "OMG WHY DIDN'T YOU REVIEW _____ IT'S NOT FAIR!"
It said Im a shadow but Its quick. Just listen and you could hear the "a"
I never knew this was choreographed by Prepix until someone stated it. It looked totally different from the other choreography.
I can't ever watch 1:40 without bursting out into laughter. I DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S JUST SUCH A CLASSIC MARTINA LINE!
Jaejoong Jaejoong Jaejoong!! I would vote for his MV even if I weren't his fan! It's too awesome!
tbh from the lyrics I get that shadow fits more, because she's their light...
I think that the message is even during the apocalypse Idols don't get a day off. LOLs
I can't stop calling them batoost now, thanks simon
Can someone direct me to a nail tutorial for Martina's watermelon nails? I'm totally in love with the design.
Go vote for it.
Since they said they there will be another version of Growl,I hope you will review it after the other version out..because the mv is a one take and the only thing that you can talk about the video is only about the dance..
Jaejoooong! That song, and the MV were amaaaaazing!
YOUR SHIRT SIMON! BLESS YOU XD HAHAHA
'Batoost' makes me crease up every time
Damn simon that crayon pop jumping jumping got me in the end
My mind was almost blown when you said 5 out of 5 hahaha thank god I kept watching the video before I commented
SO DOES FANGURILLA!
Shadow is my favourite song of beast ❤️❤️
ahah love when they talk about the rapping and then you see a picture with déjà vu on it!
Love your shirt Simon! 3 3
i hope it gets voted for the next one, but i'm not sure it will last a whole week more, because new MVs are always coming out >_<
batoost!!! And was I the only one who died laughing when simon was talking about the english of the song HAHA
when simon first gave them a 5 out of 5 for their english I was like 'Am I missing out on something?' and then he's like oh no I heard the rest of your song, it's 1 out of 5. And then I'm like 'Justice is done.'
I'm glad to hear that lol.. I mean I feel bad for you but thanks for bringing in new members of the family.
Jaejong's was clean dark and original. Loved it
Jaejoong did the very first GOOD dark MV I have ever seen it was so good and original
am I the only one whole LOVED the rap in shadow?? oh and I kept on hearing "Celo" instead of "Shadow"
I actually really liked he dance they had for this video. I don't know why but every time the song gets to the chorus, I find myself doing the shoulder dance :D
really i love the rap break, it was my favorite part
Always love spudgeys cameo covers looool
Copyright law allows exceptions. It is considered fair use to use a brief clip of a video or movie for criticism. There are other fair use exceptions, but for EYK this is the one that applies. So they are not doing anything.
it would be so hilarious if u guys were invited to running man as guests. it would prob be the best episode ever
Omg the G-Dragon Deja Vu when Simon's reviewing the rap part XDD
Next music Monday, you should defiantly review B.A.P's Badman!
Jaejoong!
So the top 3 are Growl, GR8U, and Badman....All artists are my fav and I love all the songs. They should just do all of them at once.
Jaejoong of cause. The song had such feel to it and he's so sexy in the video. I love the dark
When Simon was talking about shallow I was like "Dang, I thought for sure they said shadow but I guess not" LOL XD
I really liked the dance of Shadow, like A LOT :D
Love the shirt Simon
His description using the word shallow is still rather accurate if you were to use the word shadow...
There isn't always a message guys ^^ they just choose it cuz of their concept.
The whole time I was waiting for you to say PLAYLIST MODE!!!.....
Simon. They say because I'm Shadow... They're trying to say I'm a shadow though. But it's okay Simon, you're already awesome
For me, it felt like a rookie group could've done this song. I feel like this song is good just because of the fact that Beast did it.
But that's a good thing. That means they made that song their own.
Shadow is the legendary song that changed my friends' opinion about K-pop. Also Dongwoon and Doojoon changed their opinion about Asian guys :) One of them keeps sending me Doojoon pics from her work place. The other one keeps sending me the lyrics of the song. She also sent me Fiction MV asking if I watched it... At first I was glad they liked b2st but now they kinda became disturbing... I've got work to do too...
I personally really liked it :p and would even dare to say it was one of SM's best MVs, but I have no problem with your opinion ^^
JYJ Kim JaeJoong Mine!! Love it when he sang LIVE at BKK FM!
I love Simon's shirt :D
I pick Jaejoong's even if I'm Beast biased.It's so damn creepy I shiver everytime I watch it.Love the both of these songs,my favourite theme out of all those mv themes in K-pop.
I'm surprised you didn't like the dance. To be honest I'm a fan of Prepix and they usually work with beast. I thought this was their best collaboration. The dance fits the song perfectly as if the song was made for this choreo. There are more than 5-6 highlights in the choreo and they are all memorable. I just had to comment because I really am a fan of Prepix and I would like people to recognize their awesome innovative choreos..
JAEJOONG. AND OMG THANK YOU FOR JUMPING :3 ♥
Batoost YAY! this is my favorite song of the week ^^
lol When I first watched this mv I thought they were saying, "Because I'm JELLO, Jello, jello...." lol
