I
know I know...
The
time I released this post, the time I would get hit by a bunch of questions
such as – “Are you a sone?”, “Since when?”, “How come?”, bla-bla-bla....
The
answer? Hmm, can be! – 3-single posts so far – which even beat my favorite
boyband ever – Westlife (I realize for not having released any post of this
Irish boy/man-band to be ‘inherited’ L). Now, I wonder
myself for being disloyal to the guys whom I adore all my life. Well, no!. Big
NO-NO!. Their existence indeed won’t be lightly replaced by the 9-South-Korean-Goddesses
– so called GG, though how really entertaining the girls are. You’re
everlastingly irreplaceable, Marky! Y
Well,
it’s a new year – means new hope, doesn’t it?. So, I won’t put a lazy-ballad
song as the first entry on my playlist at these early days of the year. Though
I tend to be a more ‘mindful’ person each time I listen to a mellow song but at
least, I need a kinda warming song to boost my mood up. And the moment is just
perfect. SME preferred a unique date -01.01.2013- to release the GG’s fourth
album.
The
girls offer a hip-hop tune¹ this time – and again – colorful hair and costume
(now, I extremely get confused with their ‘true’ identity!). Gee, Genie, Oh!,
Run Devil Run, The Boys, then I Got A Boy?. Listen to the rhythm – it’s so
random, right?. Sounds like 5 genres which then are edited and mixed into one
song².. .
Anyway
– this time you are (still) safe, Girls!. At least, the part of “I got a boy meotjin! I got a boy chakhan!” catches my
ears easily. In addition, another crab-dance (after The Boys) embellishes the
overall choreography (you know how much I love seeing people dancing eventhough
I don’t dance! JJ).
I
conclude “I Got A Boy” to be a catchy song, but “All My Love Is For You” with
its pretty drum line still is a must-song of which I will play over and over
again for the next couple of weeks JJ
P.S:
¹) I kind of think that an uptempo song really helps to distribute the girls’
voices. We can see the role of these 4 girls – Yoona, Yuri, Soo Young, and Hyo
Yeon whom we don’t oft hear the voices – here in this song. Ballads will only
give the chance for Tae Yeon (the best singer of GG – to me :P) to pulverize
the rest member. Lucky you Guys, to have a good ability in dancing which can stop
people from paying too much attention to your vocal weaknesses JJ

I’m just expressing my opinion. I’m sorry in advance if I put some words not in
their right terms. I’m not an expert in this area. Nicole is.. J
But since she’s
been busy finishing her annual review and listing 50 best songs over the last year
(2012), you will hardly find her post reviewing GG’s new album this time (ATTENTION: I lose to her! She
just posted it!).
