We sat down and thought about what to do. And we decided it would
be nice to give you a little list of music we really enjoyed in January. Of
course this is only K-Pop and we also liked some other stuff. (Lyza and I
especially liked Fettes Brot since we went to their concert just recently, if
you know them please leave a comment and tell us we're not alone!)
However this list is only filled with K-Pop and we tried to also list some songs you might not have heard cause they haven't been promoted and you probably didn't listen to the whole ablum, we must confess most of the time we don't listen to the full albums either but we took the time and made us to find all those great songs for you!
So let's get started!
Topp Dogg - Arario
We must confess that we weren’t really
hooked by Open The Door but Arario is such a great song. It’s catchy, fun and
just makes you dance to it. Best news yet: They released a teaser for this song
so there will be an MV!
Rain - 30 Sexy
Is there much we need to say about this
song? I mean Rain is Dirty Sexy and we couldn’t agree more with him! Love the
song, dance and his whole comeback!
- La Song
Uhh what the video for 30 Sexy was kind of
lacking this one had it. Plus La Song has this really catchy, sightly weird
chorous that just makes you love it!
- Superman
Read: Rain. This song is a bit more on the
techno/autotune side but we still really enjoy it!
- Where Are You Going, Oppa? Feat. Hyuna
This Song. Is perfection in the form of a
song. The way she asks him ‘Where are you Going, Oppa?’ And the way he answers
in the same whiny tone, get’s us everytime. We hadn’t thought so but Hyuna and
Rain make a good couple, music wise.
DBSK - Something
My what a comeback! We loved the song from
the second we heard the Teaser and we ended up loving it. Sadly the album did
not hold up to the song in our opinion.
Girl’s Day - Something
Now that was something! Even though we did
not really rave about the MV, we really disliked the fact that it hinted on a
plot but never went through with it, we love the song! It has a subtle
sexiness, a very catchy choreous and the girls look so perfect!
- GDP Intro
This is only an intro but it’s so good we
had to include it on our list! It’s upbeat and it features a male rapper, we
think it might be Zico from Block B but haven’t found out yet. In our opinion
this song is the perfect example of a great into to an awesome album!
Gain - Fxxk U
This was only a prereleased song as a
preview for her album with a really strong MV. This is a ‘duet’ with Bumkey and
their voices work really well together, complimenting each other in the best
way possible.
Gary - Zotto Mola
We didn’t think we would fall in love with
this so much but right now the Gary Album is something we listen to a lot.
Zotto Mola is a very calm rap song that just shows how good Gary is at rapping,
and man he’s really good.
- Shower Later
This MV caused everyone to be shocked and
well it was quite revealing. Next to the MV that we really have mixed feelings
about we do really, really love the song. The song just causes you to nod along
to it, relaxing and really feeling the vibe.
-술 취한
밤의 노래 (Feat. Jung in)
There is a strong experimental feeling to
this song as well as that it sounds very old school. But after listening to the
album for a few times I can admit that this is my favourite song on it.
K-Much - 뭣 모르고
This is the male pendant to Crayon Pop,
the song is even the same but completely differently arranged. Just as Crayon
Pop it has a Kamen Rider, or something like this, feel to it. We are also madly
in love with the dance they developed to it!
Dalshabet - BBB
I must confess we didn’t give this song a
second listen for a very long time since we really didn’t like the MV much. But
then I turned it on and felt as if I had travelled though time back to the 80s.
The first thing this song reminded me of was Soft Cell’s Tainted Love!
- 그냥 지나가 (수빈 Solo) (Feat. BTOB 일훈)
This is Subin’s solo and it features
BTOB’s Ilhoon. It’s a solw song which normally isn’t my forte but the vocals
are just so strong that I fell in love with it anyways.
B1A4 - Lonely
Sadly we can only repeat what everyone
else keeps saying. This is a slow song for B1A4 but it totally sounds like them
anyways. I think one of the most important archievements for a band is to carve
their own personal style and B1A4 did that.
- Drunk With Music (CNU Solo)
Finally Shinwoo got his own solo and it’s
good. It has a slighty groovy vibe but it’s fun and easily the second best song
on this album in our opinion!
Kiss&Cry - Domino Game
This might be the band nearly no one of
you heard about before, we hadn’t either and just spontanously decided to watch
their MV and fell hard for the song. It kind of remids us of trot but with a
heavy pop beat.
Spica - You Don’t Love Me
This might be my favourite Spica song ever
but I could also be heavily influenced by the whole concept they also added to
the song. I am in love with the MV and their styling.
And that's it. If you made it this far, congratulations. If you listened to all these songs: We love you! And we demand that you tell us your favourite songs of January. Do you like the same songs as we do? Did we forget to mention someone you really, really liked?
