Before i met KPOP...

 

So i was hanging out with my brother (who does not really listen to any kpop) and he was playing some old school music. 

I was totally jamming to it too lol

 

 

Which reminded me of what i used to listen to, before i started listening to kpop...

 

 

Just letting you know, I grew up listening to kpop: GOD, HOT, SES, 1TYM, BOA, Shinhwa, 5tion, DBSK, FINKL, Papaya, Baby Vox, etc.

 

 

But i didnt really REALLY get into kpop (fangirling) until 2010. 

 

 

Anyway... BEFORE I MET KPOP.

Here's what i spazzed about. Kind of....

 

 

( I put the links to the actual MV's cuz their just so epic lol)

 

Rainie Yang

I became a fan of her's after watching the Taiwanese drama "Meteor Garden" and "Devil Beside You". Ever since then, the rest of her dramas to this day, i've seen and absolutely love~ I recommend her dramas and songs <3 she sings in a lot of the OST's. 

"Ai Mei": http://youtu.be/mebzXfWi87E (MY FAVORITE SONG WHEN I WAS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL)

"Anonymous Friend": http://youtu.be/wayz6I2xZQQ (My favoritest Taiwanese Drama)

 

Hey!Say!JUMP

I was crazy in love with these boys <3 This was right before i became a huge KPOP fan. I was a JPOP fan lol i still like JPOP, i'd just very much rather listen and watch KPOP ^^ (MY bias was Arioka Daiki <333333 and a bit of Yuya Takaki)

"Mayonaka No Shadow Boy": http://youtu.be/6ElSmQ0dYLA 

"Your Seed": http://youtu.be/mANRZxiBGKA

 

 

BackStreetBoys... Basically all their songs, but here were some of my favorites. Who doesnt love BSB???!~~ My bias was Brian Litrell <3 still love that guy XD

THIS IS A CLASSIC~ "I want it that Way~~~" (tell me why~~): http://youtu.be/4fndeDfaWCg

"Backstreets back": http://youtu.be/4icqu_ErXBo

"Show me the Meaning of Being Lonely": http://youtu.be/aBt8fN7mJNg

 

NSYNC- yes they were totally IN SYNC with each other. Loved their ballads <3 And my bias was JC ^^

"Bye Bye Bye": http://youtu.be/Eo-KmOd3i7s

"This is Promise You": http://youtu.be/6thmPrTxBtI (i love this song so much. Even the Spanish version~)

 

Savage Garden

"Truely, Madly, Deeply": http://youtu.be/hBwnnaznX9I 

(I REMEMBER THIS BEING MY ULTIMATE FAVORITE SONG IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. I knew the entire song by heart)

 

Enrique Iglesias

"Do You Know" or shall i say "Dimilo" XD  http://youtu.be/UqON44CLaQM

 

Britany Spears

I dont like her now, but back then, she was awesome. I really miss her cute and innocent image (BEFORE she got pregnant and all that drama....)

"Hit me Baby One more Time": http://youtu.be/C-u5WLJ9Yk4 (Oops, i did it again~)

"From the Bottom of my Broken Heart": http://youtu.be/fHPnGqXXUmI

 

B2K~~~~~ (OMARION <3 was like dakjfdlsajfldsajflda back then~)

"Uh Huh": http://youtu.be/_kKiXD421Y0 (still really like this song) 

 

Chris Brown

"Say Goodbye": http://youtu.be/GJ26gAc7BtU

 

 

And so that's kind of what i used to listen to.... I really liked it when America had boy groups like Back Street Boys and NSYNC. The lyrics of songs and music style in general was just so much better.

 

Yeah, people might say, there's Justin Beiber and One Direction....

 

 

But can they do 

 

THIS~

 

 

 

 

I love kpop. ^^ How about you? What did you used to listen to before KPOP?

I used to be an anti actually. lol. Karma got me.
I still remember comparing K-pop to Western songs and saying that there is no way Asian songs could beat Western songs. How wrong I was!
Western songs now are mostly about dancing in the club, that or some weird lyrics about i have no idea what lol. Now I'm totally into K-pop ^^
