Agnes Monica- Walk MV Review

ANNYEONG!
Hey everyone! I know in my videos I said that I was posting the review on the same day but hey a girls gotta sleep sometime. Ha-ha. On a more personal note. I am so happy that you all take the time to come and read about my opinion of a Music Video. It just warms my heart to see that you enjoy what I think. So thank you so much. 

I would like to think that my videos are getting a little bit better. Honestly I kind of wish that I had more reactions. But I'm a quiet person...sort of. I'm not explosive as some of the other you tubers out there. I want to take the the time to take everything in...Does that make sense? I've had a few emails about my non-facial expression during the music video. I hope that answers your questions on that. If not well...I can try to change but, in all honesty, I get so wrapped up in the video that I forget to react ha-ha.

Okay now onto the Music Video!

Honestly I wasn't as impressed with the video as I was with Paralyzed or Tok Ada Logika. I don't know. The music video didn't seem to make a big impression on me. I liked a few things but that wasn't enough for me to actually love the video itself. NOW DON'T YELL AT ME! 

I LOVE the song! It's just the video that I'm not so pumped up about. I always think that Agnes is one of the prettiest women I have ever seen. But some of her clothing choices this time weren't all that great. Maybe it's because I'm a girl but I just wasn't to fond of them at all. 

Besides the song I actually liked the dancers with the colored dust/chalk/dirt (whatever it was). I thought that, that was really unique. Oh yeah you know what I just realized...why I did't before I will never understand...but the song is in ENGLISH! That just blew my mind! How Could I not realize that it was in English? Seriously?!  

If I had to rate the video I would give it 3 stars. It was ok. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great.

If you missed my YouTube reaction watch it below.

Ailee- Heaven (Japanese Ver.) Reaction/review

ANNYEONG!
Hey everyone guess what!

I'm back with a new music video reaction/review! Today is Ailee's Heaven (Japanese Version). Now, I'm just assuming here, most of you have seen the original Korean version; right?  If not check it out here:

This is the one we all see and probably sing to on our iPods/ mp3 players. I loved this one because one it had Gikwang in it. He's such a cutie! But also because you can see her strong vocals. This video seems to fit the song way better than the Japanese version. That's not to say that I hate or dislike the Japanese version. That's not what I am saying at all. I just think that in the Japanese version her vocals aren't as strong. I feel as if she turned the volume down on her voice one day and just forgot to turn it back on. It's okay Ailee it happens to all of us.

The entire video just seemed really muted for me. And like I said in my reaction it didn't really draw any real emotions from me like the original did. The sets were pretty and Ailee looked amazing like usual but the whole thing together didn't really do much for me in the long run. In the original I felt like crying as the video progressed. This one was just a few glimpses of a man that could or could not have been some one she missed. It had a bit of mystery: Why was she in the basement? Was she in a basement; cause that is what it looked like? Or was she in their loft?

So many questions not enough answers. I love Ailee as a singer. She is amazing! But this was not one of her best times. All in all I give her 3.5 Stars. The video was muted and it was pretty but it didn't bring on all that many emotions that could have been brought to the table with this version.

Agnes Monica "Tak Ada Logika" Music Video Reaction/Review

ANNYEONG
Hey everyone I've done it again. I've just reacted to "Tak Ada Logika." I have to say the more that I see from her, the more I really like her. This time though I caught one of my room mates. WELL, it's more like I asked and then kinda turned the camera on her. I'm so evil...MUaHAHAHA. It goes along with the Halloween feeling, right?

Onto the video!


The video was good. It wasn't great. I liked the song though. It's really catchy. Like my roommate said this song kind of reminds us of Shakira with the sound, but also with a mix of Rihanna and Nelly furtado.  Also thought, that is was pretty awesome that the lyrics were on the screen. Even though I had no idea what they were saying I could kind of follow along with the Chorus if I wanted to.

The song it self is really catchy. As I'm typing this I am listening to it and I'm resisting the urge to continue to dance like a dork.  The costumes except for the blue one near the end were really practical. Nothing was too over the top like in Paralyzed (even thought that wasn't even really over the top except for her hair). It seemed like she was struggling with something/ someone throughout the video. I'm probably going to have to go on a hunt for an english translation to find out the meaning of the song.

The dancing was on point in this song. It's always nice to see the artist actually dancing in their videos. Unlike most American artists who do the bare minimum of dancing and its usually just the "sexy" part. I'm putting sexy very loosely because I don't think it looks that good. Anyways, with Agnes it feels that she is putting a lot of pride into her videos and doing the her best to make them well. I think that from all the videos that I've watched from Kpop, Jpop, and so on. Her's feel the most realistic emotion wise. Does that makes sense? I mean the songs always feel raw with emotion that is being put into it.

All in all, I love the song. I like the video. I love Agnes Monica. Everything was good and I can find something to get up to the morning and just get energized from. I look forward to checking out more songs by her in the near future.

(On a side note @AGNESMOquenn on twitter re-tweeted one of my posts! :D I was so freaking excited. It wasn't a super impressive post or anything just that I was jamming out to paralyzed while waiting for math class to start. But STILL. It's just the principal of the thing. :) Just thought I would share that with all of you lovely readers. )

Block B- Very Good Music Video Review

ANNYEONG!
Hey everyone! How are you this fine evening? Me? Well, I'm doing....very, very GOOOOOOOOOOOD! Ha-ha. That's right if you hadn't seen the title then I bet you can guess what I can't seem to get out of my head... that's right! Block B's 'Very Good'


Check out the Music video below!


My god, men! They are officially back everyone! When I heard that Block-toBer was hear I (literally) was jumping around in joy. My room-mate and friends had all gotten the song and watched the video before I had a chance to...They are that on top of things people! I'm not joking, I blinked and they had everything but a poster and physical album.

Anyways, so before I watched the MV I did listen to the song and it was amazing. Zico and his voice drove me nuts! Gah, I love that man, and P.O. like my friend said: "He could definitely be in a scream-o band with no problems and everyone would still love that man." Okay I changed the last part cause it was boy...but he is no longer a boy with that voice.

Onto the video!

 Instantly there is Zico's voice (sigh) and then we hear B-bomb and his amazingness. :) Zico is like pulling a G-Dragon with his costume changes. I mean with the tattoos and fur in one scene to the crush velvet suit in another...to the Marilyn Manson-esque (this one kind of freaked me out) vision in another. Not to say that I didn't like; heck, I loved it, it was just kind of weird to see it to be quite honest with you. Of course P.O. comes up soon after and....why is he wearing lipstick and sparkly green shoes? Did you see the hip thrusts!? He is really trying to kill all of us BBCs. They all are.

I'm starting to go off into major fangirl mode...must resist...

Then there's Jaehyo....that derp and his perfect face. It was funny to see him spit out his drink though...and then get beat up by the girl who was like "Yeah I know what you saw...I'm going to kick your butt. ;P"

The Ukwon...You gorgeous kitty you. I have to say that the mask, spiked jacket, and lip rings....Look absolutely amazing on you...Why do you have to be taken?! Ha-ha he has the best expressions during the 'acting' bit of the MV. When the dog came after him I literally thought of a little kid with their hand in a cookie jar. I love everyone's voices and Taeil I can't really take him seriously because of an english intro that he did...It was too adorable. But he has a great voice and in the MV (I think) he was the one to put TNT around the vault door. Either way he's one of my favorite singers. He just puts EVERYTHING into his singing.

OH! I forgot that Zico pulled a Miley...No not the tweaking...That would be rather weird if he did that...No, the licking of objects...He licked a Red Skull...And Kyung was on a table, his head on a plate, and he was sitting on two burly men (? Should we be worried about that last one?) Then of course they have everyone dancing like crazy at the end and tossing the TNT around like a hot potato. Why is Zico on the Burley man's back (?????) I have no idea. But all in all. I loved this video. I know most of this was just gushing over then and being really glad that they are back. I think that going to Seven Seasons was a really good move for them and they are back; It's going to be a great year (well what's left of it).

Agnes Monica - "Paralyzed" Reaction

ANNYEONG!
Thanks to Areif Bachtiar on YouTube I think that I've found a new person to listen to! I haven't listened to a lot of Indonesian pop so this was a first and let me say that I was not disappointed at all. So let's get on with the review shall we?

I have yet to look up the english translation for the song but so far I was drawn in with the openning of the video. I see a woman with amazing shoes and bright *** red hair. That got me intrigued with what was going on. I mean the video is a little weird but not in a bad way. I was a little freaked out by the zebra man but he just looked odd. Ha-ha. The video itself was a little avant-garde with some of the costumes and that is something that I usually only see in most J-pop songs. But it wasn't over the top crazy costumes for the entire video. Agnes gave off a great vide while she dance and even with her bright red hair it didn't draw away from her music.

I was glad to see so stylish hip-hop-esque clothes for dancing. I've said in my video that Agnes kind of reminds me of both BoA and Nelly Furtado. Both with like styles from BoA's 'Girls on Top,' and Nelly Furtado's 'Maneater.' I'm not even talking about the music sound just the looks and her remind me of them. All in all I love the song. Some of the props I was a little weirded out by but I guess that kind of goes along with the avant-garde, circus-y feel.

Block B 'Be The Light' MV Reaction

ANNYEONG ANNYEONG!
Hey everyone long time no review! Ha-ha just kidding. I'm starting to get a little more time in between classes so I was try my best to keep up with your requests. But this time I am reviewing Block B' "Be the Light." I was so happy to hear the Block-tober was finally here! I was seriously waiting for them to come back and come back they did.

What I love about Be the Light is the fact that you can hear everyone singing. Hearing everyone sing just shows how much they've grown over time. I was really glad to see Zico! (I f you couldn't guess he is my absolute favorite <3), anyways, this song is really nice. The sound is something different but not in a bad way from their old songs. It has a classier feel to it.

Why is it alway U-kwon that gets beaten up? I mean really? In any fight scene it's alway him that gets kicked or hit. Gotta say though, he is still looking mighty fine. Wow Taeil I didm't think that he could get any better at singing but he proved me wrong. Have I mentioned P.O. yet? No? MY GOD MAKNAE! I had almost forgotten how deep his voice is...I absolutely love it!

Now in my reaction video I really didn't talk about what I thought of the meaning of the song. I still don't know what it truly means as I am writing this post. I probably should look up the english translation. Besides that the woman was really pretty. I was kind of lost as to what she was to the video But I'm sure that I will find out soon enough. The video will be posted below if you want to check it out.
