    When you keep on experimenting you get something new, thats how music or anything evolves.Imagine if only people would have stuck up to the old musics,if they were like this is the trend,we don't have to try something new,Music wouldn't have evolved.I'm not down shading anyone but either way people gonna like or hate the change,thats the reason peoples are afraid of rejection they're gonna face.Nct being one of the group who tries to change the whole dynamics and perspective of music so people either gonna love them or hate them for bringing the change...

    "I absolutely love that there's a group out there that is unafraid to do whatever ..."
    I automatically shouted, Shinee! NCT's seniors. Just listen to their title tracks from debut till now, non sounds similar to the other. Constantly churning different sounds with superb vocals. That's is one of the reasons I love them so much. And then I think back, no wonder I'm stanning NCT, especially 127. It is because of their experimental music as well. And their B sides? Exquisite!

  • @camrosie
    @camrosie 3 года назад +11

    i know that when i was first getting into kpop, there were songs that i liked, but the cheesy/cringey english lines took me out of it and made it hard for me to listen to (happened a lot with NCT, BlackPink, and some other groups especially) but once you can just let go of that and enjoy the song for what it is, you can enjoy things so much more. Dream's song "We Young" was a big one like that, i couldn't help but feel a little silly when listening to the chorus, and i never listened to it. But now that I've gotten over it, it's one of my absolute favorite songs in kpop. This song reminded me of that, too. When i was watching the mv on my own i turned off the subs because i wasn't feeling the lyrics at all, but watching your reaction with the subs there and just not letting them take away from the song is weirdly freeing. Of course deep and meaningful lyrics can make a song so much better, but they're not always needed imo.
    this has nothing to do with anything you said in the video, but it was a thought i had while watching it regardless lol

    i don't personally vibe with the song but i think there's a frustrating narrative going around that if you don't like the song you 'don't get nct' or 'aren't a real fan' and that really annoys me. i have a lot of valid critiques of the song, and normally love their more experimental tracks, but people are going around basically saying that not liking the song = not being intellectual enough to get it.
    i agree with everything you've said though. despite not liking it, i love that nct go there and make these more experimental tracks, since so many groups are afraid to do it. the album's really great and i look forward to seeing what you think of it!
    i hope i get it on more listens, as there's a lot of things here i love and i really wanna love the song.

  • @overthemoo
    @overthemoo 3 года назад +6

    I have a feeling the idea for the piano may have initially been a ragtime-type style? So my guess is that it felt too busy and/or they decided to focus on “minimizing” all the different elements. So the minimal flute (I wonder if this mimics the highest and lowest notes from that common western movie stand-off/duel whistle-tune), as well as the minimal piano ends up sounding more modern - probably closer to 90s r&b. And the rest of the production makes it sound more like today’s music.
    tl;dr… It’s as if Timbaland produced a song with the best Kpop songwriter.

    The ongoing flutey sound seems like on of those toy plastic slide whistles, sonically played with in the studio.

    Actually, the NCT 127 vibe is there. But if you also noticed the sound is still different from the usual NCT 127 songs. And from reading a lot of comments here and there, i know some wants to hear the usual NCT beats/sound altogether. But hey, as you grow older, you experiment. Which I love about NCT 127. they are never afraid to do it. They are no longer youngsters. So of course, their songs and MV will thirst trap you more. Lol. I mean, Taeyong and Jaehyun showing up with no shirt inside, Johnny (well this is not new. Lol) as always showing his toned bod, Yuta who has a shirt more transparent than the others. Haechan with that gorgeous nigh and shining armor look, Jungwoo beastin' the mv especially the latter part, Mark doing the gun trick which made the ending special again, Taeil with more attitude, Doyoung with the gorgeous right face profile and blonde streaks., i mean all members looked like they will *Whiplash" you. Lol. I'm sure their repackaged album in October will show some usual NCT sounds ;). Vocals are more showcased here, and i'm lovin' it

  • @MorePara8

    So... For me it was like this: at first listen (which was with the MV) I wasn't sure if I liked it or not. I think the flute was upsetting my ears and "annoying" me a little.
    Then I did the second listen with the album listen(sorry with the repetition) and I understood I like it. Not love it but like it. I hadn't listened to it again except for your reaction because I couldn't (you know... Life). For now my thoughts is that I like it but it's not something I would listen to any time.
    I wouldn't call it brilliant or a masterpiece but that's just my opinion. For sure I wouldn't call it bad. At all. I'm sure a lot of people will do that but it's something that always happens when the gp gets something that they aren't used to.
    Before I said the flute was annoying me but I think the reason was that my ears and brain were taken aback.
    I'm used to experimental sounds, inside K-pop (I mean Skz are my faves, no one in the industry beats them in experimenting) and outside (especially in the rock "field") so I'm absolutely not against that, actually I love and appreciate when an artist tries that.
    I personally appreciate much more the verses than the chorus and I think Taeil, Jaehyun and Haechan really fit this sound. But also Yuta even if he has less lines. Not a big fan of Taeyong's rap at the beginning.
    I feel like putting out a song like this is much more interesting than putting out a song that fits the K-pop standards perfectly. There's already so many songs like that(I don't mean it necessarily in a bad way, it depends), not all needs to do that. NCT never was about that and I appreciate it.

But I freaking love how rich this song is and I can’t stop talking about it. It’s alright for you to not like this because even Doyoung himself said it’s not meant for everyone. This song is a journey for me as it has the synth grooving in the lower layer and some sprinkle of bass added along with it then the piano section comes in that gives me so much Cafeteria shop jazz music vibe ya know those songs they play in Starbucks while you are having a cup of coffee while doing work or studying. Then there comes the strings instrumental idk if it’s violin accompanied with something else but it gives off so much orchestra feels and it presents the dramatic vibe of the song before entering the chorus. And the bridge is as usual slows down a little and their Heavenly vocals just pours down on you it’s magnificent. Follow up by the descending rap tone of Jaehyun and Yuta pick up by Johnny then transitions to the more edm-ish dance break to end the bridge.

    Loved hearing your thoughts on this song because ofc they are similar to mine. Its funny listening to this song, there are actually very few elements that make up this song sort of floating in a silence created by the strong flute tone. I'm OBSESSED with this song, you think you can't listen to this song too much, but I haven't stopped since day one. Its really maximum impact with minimal noise (and I mean NOISE).
