KPOP PLAYLIST AUGUST

FUN (fun and up beat or just fun to sing along to)

Baby G-Crying Part II

Loving this R&B ballad. Its refreshing to listen to something with touching lyrics and a great beat.

ZE:A- Heart for 2

Though I’m not a big fan of the intro to the song I just cant get enough of the rest of the song. And the chorus really stuck to me!

Bang Yong Gook- I Remember ft. Yo Seob

OMG! OMG! OMG! This song is sick! I’m totally in love with Yong Gook! His voice is so sexy and his talent is astounding. I’d really been looking forward to his debut since he featured in Song Ji Eun’s sole single Going Crazy. I was prepared to be in love with what ever group he debuted with but I’m so glad he’s going solo! The song is wonderful and its great to see a MV that matches the song too. I cant wait for more from Yong Gook oppa!

FT Island- I Will Have You

I cant get enough of Hongi’s voice! And the song has such a wonderful rock edge to it. 

Super Junior- Mr. Simple

Super Juniors title track to their comeback album…is there more to say!? I mean really its super Junior! EVERYTHING they release is gold!!!

Wei Chen- Run Away ft. Thunder and Lee Joon

Biggest reason for loving this song? The lyrics are 80% English! And its also a great showcase for Lee Joon and Thunders talent. Great song!

Shake It Up- Seo In Guk

Another great track if your looking to boost your energy levels. Perfect for dancing to!

Sunnyhill- Pray

Yet another song that I really love! And again not only is the song awesome the MV also matches the song. Loving their last single its good to have such a great follow up song.

SMOOTH (more often than not slow but really touching)

I’m going to sound like a weirdo but the only ballads I’ve listened to more than twice this month have come from the same drama. The music director of The Princess’ Man should really be recognized. The man chose the perfect songs to complement the drama! I’ve set a link to each of the following album covers so you can check out a bit of each album.

 

 

2010, MEET 2011!

╚╝╚╝╚╝╚╝╚╝New Year 2011 ^^ ………2010 could not have ended on a better light for K-pop. So many great performances and special stages I can hardly pick a favorite. I was lucky enough to be able to catch all the live footage from KPOPFLASH but I ended watching it again on ALLKPOP. I swear SBS, KBS, and MBC put on some fantastic shows!

*Side Note: I was in an awful automobile accident on the 31st. Normally that isn’t something to be happy about but I cant help but see it as a good omen. It kind of represents the clearing of all bad karma and can only mean that 2011 is going to ROCK! *

I cant be sure about my luck thus far but I do know that 2011 is full of comebacks from a lot of my favorite artists and that alone is enough to make me hopeful for the rest of the year.

We start off January with MBLAQ. They just dropped the MV for Cry…and my-oh-my it is SEXY!! I feel pregnant after watching it… There is supposed to be a second title track and if its anything like Cry I cant wait to have twins!!!

Sexiness!

Now GD&TOP released their MV for Knock Out today which of course makes me super HAPPY. My only concern…whats with the anorexic looking white chicks? If I didn’t like the song so much maybe I would more attention to the video so I guess I can bypass the white trashiness.

Knock Out Ooh YEAAAAH!!

DBSK is also to release Keep Your Head Down on the 5th and already controversy about the lyrics is all over. Netizens stipulate that it’s a message to JYJ- I for one don’t buy it for a minute. The song however is stuck in my head! I’m so happy that even with out 3 members DBSK still sounds like DBSK (albeit with an edgier feel). I anticipate this album to be one of the HOTTEST of the year!

Full audio- MV release on 01/05

We also have Teen Top releasing their album this month (though which day I don’t know). These boys have me really curious after they released their teaser photo. I’m not sure I like the concept but I loved Clap so I can only hope their comeback will deliver!

Clap MV

Secret swing dance single is to release on the 6th. From their teaser I can only get one thing…the song is going to be CUTE! I’m really looking forward to seeing the MV.

Secret comeback teaser

I‘m sure there are quite a few more stars with comebacks scheduled for January but I don’t recall anymore off the top of my head. I do know that January isn’t the only month to look forward to. No siree! March has After School with their 9th member. I cant wait for a teaser of their album!

9th Member…she’s pretty!

 

Now oddly enough this year also seems to be chock full of army enlistments. We ended 2010 with a few of my favorites enlisting (namely Kangmin of Super Junior). but as if that wasn’t enough, we are starting it off the same. There’s Lee Seung Gi, Super Junior’s leader Lee Teuk, and even Rain. It makes me really sad and worried but I know they will all come back hale and hearty!
