Let's SHUT UP & DANCE

So, this is a collaboration that I never knew I wanted. Like, no joke, I was joking with my friends yesterday how Jason Derulo used to sing "Jason Derulo" at the beginning of each of songs, and how we didn't know what the hell he was doing now. Now, he appears out of fucking nowhere. I also saw an old picture of Lay and Luhan and was thinking how much I missed them, and here's Lay answering my prayers 💗 Also, who would've thought that there would be a collaboration with Lay, NCT 127, and Jason Derulo, like not me.

So, the song. I like it. The beginning with the brass?, then the bass drum and guitar? (idk I'm getting very rusty), was great. I love that they continue to use them. Like the chorus, on point. Can I just say someone needs to make one of these videos where every time someone says "show me some", it speeds up because they honestly said it so much.

As you can tell from the title of song, dancing is big in this video. And let me just say, the dancing be great. I loved seeing all the other random people dancing their own styles and then seeing Lay, Jason Derulo, and NCT 127 dancing. Can I just say though at 1:04, Jason Derulo holding the wall stomping legit made me laugh. I think this video really was able to showcase everyone's dancing. Like Lay, slayed. I think people forget that he, along with Kai, is the main dancer for EXO. He truly is an amazing dancer and it was great to see it after all this time. NCT 127, of course, looked great. I think them dancing at the bridge was able to show their own style of dance as well as their ability to synchronize in the other parts. Derulo was also able to hold his ground. I think he really showed his talents near the end of the video with that fancy ass footwork at 3:14 and that pirouette? at 2:30 and 2:33.

Overall, cool video. It was really great to Jason Derulo for me, since I remember listening to him back in 2010 when he sang his name in the beginning of his songs. I am also sooooo happy to see Lay!!! I missed him sooo much the past couple of EXO comebacks he wasn't able to be in. And, of course, NCT 127 made a great addition to this video as well. So... um... yeah...


P.S. Just counted and they said "show me some" 40 times, which might be a little be off because sometimes they said it under a riff or something so like, don't shoot me if I'm off.

Sailor Moon- Jadeite

After a watching a video on Sailor Moon that was constantly on my recommended on YouTube, I was reminded with how much I loved this show. This, of course, led me to rewatch the entire show because wasting hours of my life for no reason is my favorite past time. I also found that I seriously lacked anime content so that led me to want to write about it. I was trying to figure out how writing this would work because there are a lot of episodes which means I'm not going to review Sailor Moon as a whole because I would forget the beginning by the time I got to the end. I also would not review every single episode because again there are a lot and since it's a superhero show there are a lot of "throw away" episodes. (This also lead me to want to create an "essential viewing" list, which would include only episodes that I think is important in regards to plot or character development.) The arcs themselves are quite large and are split into even smaller parts with ...

NCT Dream- Chewing Gum

Ok, so, another sub group of NCT, NCT Dream, came out Chewing Gum. This might be favorite single that NCT came out with. It's so bright, fun, and cute. Every time I see the video I break out into a smile. The story is pretty lighthearted, and it's very entertaining to watch. I absolutely love the bright colors that they use throughout the video. It really adds to the group's cute and bright theme. I found the video quite interesting to watch. They had a variety of different sets, including the ones made by the computer, and all of them were of bright colors. I also enjoyed the electronic made backgrounds for when the members had the closeups. Each person had a different animated background, so it was interesting to see what was behind them. I also kind of funny that they were using those hoverboard-thingies. (I have no idea what they're called, but I think it's a hoverboard?) The song is quite catchy, and I could probably listen to it over and over again for hou...

Astro- Baby

For those who might know, Astro is a somewhat new group under Fantagio that debuted in 2016. I have been fans of theirs since I watched To Be Continued, which is available on Netflix. 😉 (Check it out!) Sanha has to be my bias 💛, but Moon Bin is such a bias wrecker. 😖 I LOVE this song! It continues their fresh, sweet, and fun concept that they have kept since debut. However, this is less cutesy and right up my alley. It's smooth but still bright, which is absolutely perfect. It has that certain funk to it that is irresistible and insanely catchy. The reoccurring beat is sooo catchy and is great. The electric guitar at 2:43 is EPIC!! I'd have to say though that the ending has to be my favorite part. That beautiful harmony hits the spot, and is perfection. But, Sanha singing the 2nd chorus was really great as well (I really love his voice 💛) One thing I love about this video is how it's filmed in first person so it feels as if you are truly experiencing what's happ...
