here, let's have some eye contact whoo.

so it's here!

Rainbow comeback!!

one i wasn't really anticipating for the title song bcuz what i got from the preview didn't make me anticipate it.

but anyway, Rainbow comeback is always welcomed by me.

And other than the title song...i like other songs.

though maybe not as crazy over them as when their awesome Innocent album came out n my jaw just dropped at how awesome the songs are n how they fit them.

but i like how this album has a pretty solid retro theme through n through and not merely the title song.

maybe i'll talk more about it in my blog when/if i do review for this album but anywhoo...

now i think i like Woori's n Noeul's hair a lil better than before...especially when Noeul's hair is made with a lil more puffiness than it look in pics...

i don't care for the simple mv...i like how each member's colours are very much emphasized and centralized here...and how they're just being their cool dork ahjumma selves in this MV...n i love how there seems to be some message in the mv n how they 'created' rainbow and defeated black...haa...

i just don't like the song that much...i mean.....yet...but even if i come to like it....it's just a pity bcuz i feel there are songs better fitted to be title song...and not every group matching boring public friendly song to be title song...Rainbow has always fared/match better with sassier more charismatic songs(A-Mach-To Me-Sweet Dream) than bland public friendly ones...cuz they're just too awesome for these stuffs...

anyway, what i looove and look forward to from Rainbow is...how they always enjoy their songs/perfs to the fullest no matter what they sing/perform...especially evident in Jaekyung...but tbh other girls aren't inferior in this department...it's just that Jaekyung's spirit n energy n passion is just....yeah....on top...although if you watch them perform in university festivals n stuffs random stages....ALL members are equally crazy(maybe just Yoonhye a bit shy/toned down compared to other members...though she still interact lots with audience/fans) n full of spirit even if they have stages for a few days in a row singing same songs...the energy level look as if they're having first stage after a lonnggg time n they never shy away from embarrassing themselves with their crazy antics on stage. That's my Rainbow charm...which you can't see much in music shows since music shows aren't where singers interact that much with crowd and just with camera mostly...

now on to other songs...

^ i love this one...cool song, matching Rainbow's charisma.

^ another that matches Rainbow style...this is the song composed fully by Hyunyoung. love the grooves on this one. i love the bridge or whatever you call it part...yeass, for Noeul's beautiful (albeit thin) voice...always think she has one of the most unique/distinctive voice in the group...

^ i'm so surprised by how much i like this song than i initially thought i would...it reminds me of Lee Na Kyeum's song Brazen...and i shouldn't be surprised...Lee Na Kyeum is vocal teacher for dsp artistes...and Woori acted in one of her other MVs(which i'd say one of the most awesome MVs from 2015 for the prettiness, symbolism, the song, the acting, directing n all)...but the similarity of their song vibe is still surprising...bcuz i never thought Rainbow would be able to bring charisma for such sound for them to be given such a similar sound...and in the preview...this song sound like just another boring filler cutesy song...but it turned out much better than i feared. (kinda hypocritical on my side since i hated ZE:A's the day we broke up since the song sounds too alike to the composer's previous song for them...but this...) anyway...Hyunyoung rocked this one.

^ am never really the biggest fan of traditional ballads save for a few...but this is actually quite nice...i like the intro,it keeps me away from turning it off prematurely before even trying lol...for some reason...i always feel like Jaekyung's part/voice dominate the most in ballads not in a bad way...it's just when i think Rainbow ballads...Jaekyung's voice the first come to mind...but i'm glad to spot all members voices...Woori sings too in here, and so happy to hear Noeul n Yoonhye too....but...how come i didn't spot Seungah...aaahhh...such a fail fangirl here....T^T(please just tell me she DOES have a part n it's just me who failed as her fangirl or i'd be mad)...there's one voice i couldn't recognize...i'm thinking it's possibly Jisook's? but idk...i'm not crazy for this song...but it's alright...and nice for Rainbow voice appreciation session...

 

alrite...done.

it looks like i already reviewed unprofessionally here...i wouldn't know what to write in my blog now...lol.

damnit...i actually kinda like this album(still better than their Syndrome albums)...i might end up buying this too ><...

 

-edit-

 

And Jaekyung just tweeted this...

Rainbow is always awesome to their fans, n of course their dedicated fans are awesome too.
