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.

Produce X 101- Final Ranking

So, I was actually able to watch the entire finale. I'm still going to hold off on writing anything about the actual show portion of this episode until english subtitles are released. That being said the group name is X1. It's sweet and simple and basically sums up the premise of this season. Now onto the rankings. My current top 11 are: 1. Cho Seung Youn 2. Lee Han Gyul 3. Han Seung Woo 4. Keum Dong Hyun 5. Hwang Yun Seong 6. Kim Yo Han 7. Song Yu Vin 8. Song Hyung Jun 9. Son Dong Pyo 10. Nam Do Hyun 11. Lee Jin Hyuk I know I already changed my list from literally yesterday. I honestly happy with whatever the final ranking is as long as Cho Seung Youn and Han Seung Woo get in. If Lee Han Gyul get in, that's an extra bonus. I truly wish that all of the guys could debut in X1, which obviously is not going to happen. Anyway, onto the official rankings. 1. Kim Yo Han When they told us 1st place was down to Kim Woo Seok or Kim Yo Han, I was not surprised. I th...

Produce X 101- Position Evaluation

I love position evaluation. I think it gives the rappers a chance to really shine when they usually have to showcase singing or dancing. It also gives us epic performances such as Shape of You and "Michoji" from Season 2. Either way it allows people to really showcase their talents. The introduction of the X position definitely added interest. I think it is definitely very important for the trainees to be able to both sing and dance at the same time or rap and dance at the same time, since that is what they are going to be doing as an idol. Vocal Position Twit by Hwasa I love how this song was not like the typical ballad type songs to showcase their singing. Their harmonies were amazing and I loved it. Lee Hyeop did really well and I think it was great that he was finally able to showcase his singing ability. Jeonghwa also really stood out with his strong voice and cool stage presence. The performance overall was very captivating and I was really impressed and liked...

Lucy- Panorama

So fucking psyched about this album! I listened to the all the teasers and all of them sounded amazing. Based off of the mini-album highlight medley, I was most looking forward to Straight Line with Flare being second. Honestly though, just from the teasers alone I knew that this mini-album was gonna be right up my alley.  Just a quick heads up I had half of this post written on August 13th, which was a lot closer to when the mini-album came out than now. Not gonna lie, I don't regret putting it off. I still am in love with this album, and Lucy is still releasing content regarding this mini-album on their Youtube channel. I know they released lyric videos for all of these songs, which include the Korean lyrics and the English translations. They also released a commentary on the album with English subs which is just so interesting. They showed the production process as well as the meanings behind each song and the album as a whole. So, please check them out! It's so cool that t...
